Tendrils digging into

flesh and crunching bone

Piercing through brain matter

Infected but not cursed

Healing

Soft and patient

yearning

Heart still beats loudly

a secret locked away with a smirk

Sometimes on cold days I like to pull my beanie up over my ears to feel the air and hear the birds that persist.

The robins are whistling and I'm wondering if they can see their breath as they're asking me about that one time Hell froze over

[ohwaitwhatdamn]

They feasted on patterns and shared masks

Polka dots clashing with plaid

Wrap me up

Chrysalis

I think if I change my body I will be free from the touch of calloused hands and fingertips placed around my wrists

Definition forming like mountains across my shoulders

My plates shift and I no longer erode

Range and exhumation

Pull myself up

and watch the sunrise

[wholeheartedsuggestions]

you are allowed to miss and love people who you’ll never go back to

[feelingsoftheday]

a bond so strong that you feel an immediate longing for each other the moment you part ways.

[antigonick]

But as soon as you loved me all my callous went away.

—Andrea Gibson, excerpt of "First Love", in Lord of Butterflies

Saltwater isn't stinging old wounds

Desalinate

You offered me a cup and held it my lips

after removal of volatile components

Pulled away into the waves

Toss and turned

Lost among the tumultuous waves

Can thoughts of people be intrusive

driftwood washing up gently on the shore

Easing on the sand

Smooth but splintered

Why rooted
