I THINK LOVE IS SOMETHING / THAT HAPPENS TO OTHER PEOPLE

[notquiteaghost]

like winning the lottery / or finding God in your sock drawer. I think love is something that happens to other people—nebulous, distant, an invention of the movies; I think love is like death / as in, it happens to everyone but you until it happens / to you, and then where else could you be but in love? Where else could you be but in the belly of the beast, / that oozing cavern where people go in fairy tales? I think love is a creation. I think maybe you shape it with your hands, I think maybe you find it stuck in your molars, I think maybe it comes to you when you’re in the shower, your face tilted towards the water while your mind melts somewhere else, I think maybe we’ve all been naming it wrong. You know that love? That falling-to-your-knees love? That where’d-the-water-go love? That hold-me-close-I’ll-never-leave-I-know-your-favorite- coffee-creamer love? That what-we-talk-about-when-we- talk-about-love love? You ever felt that? I mean, really felt any of that? / Yeah, tell me again how you feel it. Yeah, tell me again / how it fills the chest, fills the head, fills the lungs. Tell me again what it means to find God in your sock drawers. Tell me again.

hot tip: only feel genuine elation when you are helping someone else who is suffering and define your self worth based on how many people you can save. since pain is boundless in this wretched world the only path to true happiness is through constant self-sacrifice

the burial at thebes: a version of sophocles’ antigone / succession / the bear

[ihatemeltedicecream]

matthew macfayden mr. darcying tf out of succession w the whole affix your stickers to objects you covet scene and tenderly sticking it on lil greg's forehead, melting my heart (even tho it insinuates something that's not entirely wholesome) shall be one of my core memories henceforth

cats be like: i get free accomodation, food, toys and a loving environment and you get to see me a handful of times throughout the day and *nose boops their way into your heart*

[ihatemeltedicecream]

i feel like kindness and cruelty are so inextricably linked to one another.

you can't be one without the other.

the kindest people i know, are unimaginably cruel to themselves.

How do I tell you I love you without choking on the words?

Growing up, I never heard my family say 'I love you'. It was something people confessed in films and books and not what mother said to us or father told my mother. I love you was an exotic bird that existed somewhere in the world- too far away from us. I love you was a weakness that required immeasurable strength.

So, I pour my love in the morning coffee. And in the evening, I peel an orange for you, I love you. And I send you 15 cat pictures an hour, I love you and I hope you see it. And I text you good morning at the same time everyday, I love you, I love you, I love you. And until I learn to swallow it and live in it and whisper it, I hope you see how much I love you.

Crying in the cab while it's raining outside then going to buy ice cream and chips to have by the apartment poolside is me having my peak main character moment

[rinnetenseisdiedbadly-deactivat]

[ihatemeltedicecream]

the chokehold a phrase as simple as "it will pass" has on me HELP
