The purest form of love is consideration. When someone thinks about how things would make you feel. Pays attention to detail. Holds you in regard when making decisions that could affect you. In any bond, how much they care about you can be found in how much they consider you

Today is the first of August. It is hot, steamy and wet. It is raining. I am tempted to write a poem.

Sylvia Plath, from The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

[averagefairy]

life honestly used to feel real and then maybe after like 2016ish everything just started to become more and more unbelievable until reaching the point of like complete simulation territory. every day i feel more like a sim that some fucked up 11 year old is making decisions for and i’m screaming gibberish and waving my arms around in a puddle of my own piss

Helen Oyeyemi, from “White Is for Witching”    

[jungquote]

"It is much more courageous to say you are afraid; to say you are brave means that you are almost a coward because you are afraid of your fear. The courage which consists of fear that is not admitted needs laughter in order to become bearable."

— Carl Jung, N.Z.

Tokyo feels like home to me. Always love being here.

[onesecondbeforesunset]

Have you ever looked at someone and all you saw was poetry?

Aesthetically pleasing, utterly intoxicating, authentically irresistible, collection of stardust.

The night sky baths in the reflection of their glittering eyes and breathtaking smile, a sight that you find more beautiful than the stars.

And then you are left to wonder how their soft sunset gaze could leave you flabbergasted, how the universe could possibly fit into those undimmed eyes.

How one gentle caress of their fingertips melts your heart and sends goosebumps on every inch of your skin, tracing the map to your heart.

How your once sober heart has gone utterly wild and drunk at the sound of their velvety voice.

And when they give you that sweet smile followed by their mellifluous laugh, your heart forgets all the sanity it has ever known.

Imponderable, impalpable colours of feeling fill into every crack of your heart.

An insatiable longing, an unquenchable thirst for them and them alone.

And suddenly every word that you write or utter breathe only their name
