been feeling shut down and not myself but also at the same time myself. i keep losing it but then i remember. the deep sadness i felt when i was a teenager is peeping back into my life again and im curious to rediscover but it hurts and i am afraid. i dont know what i need i dont know what i am or who i am to others or if that matters but i dont know it for myself either. all i know is this pain in my chest is there and it hurts and i feel like i deserve it almost or it belongs there not sure which. not sure why im not writing this in a diary or something but some part of me always wants to share.

I am not meant for casual love. I was born for soul consuming love and obsession.

[rueyam]

so much of love lives in silences. in patience. in forgiveness.
