There's this constant longing for someone who cares, some older, wiser being who listens & takes care of me.

This longing scares me. I try to write about it but there are no words for it.

It all leads to this unbearable loneliness that I can't fucking face...

if you press your ear to the dirt / you can hear it hum, not like it’s filled

with beetles & other low gods / but like a mouth rot with gospel

& other glories.

There's a sort of goodbye that comes with 17.

All questions of 'who do you want to be when you grow up' turn to 'who are you becoming now?' 17 is young, 17 is old. It's everything you wanted. It's everything you despised. It's messy and ruthless and full of grief at times. And 17 is scary as hell because now you know that you finally have to say goodbye to childhood.
