broken heart's club

love is a terrible thing that leaves you crying sunday nights with cold coffee in hand. love is a let down. i should have my master's degree in the art of self hatred, and it should hang alongside the pain of loving you.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am seven

and my reply is

pink

because i am a girl

and pink

is a princess color.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am ten

and i like

green

because a boy told me that pink

is lame and girly.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am thirteen

and i tell them

purple

it is unique and spunky

like i want to be.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am seventeen

and i just say

red

i do not say

it is bright and angry at the world

as i am

i cannot form the words to express

all of my frustrations

so i paint my lips with

rage.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am twenty

and it’s pink

i remember the joy

of being a child

i reclaim the freedom

of femininity

because i cannot remember

what my shoulders felt like

before the depression

hung from them.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am twenty-six

and my answer is

brown

it confuses most people

they don’t see it

they may think of dirt

and dust

and dead things

but it is coffee with friends

and the chocolate chip cookies

my mom used to make.

it is my hair

and my eyes

amber and gold

in the sun

and i love myself

again

Apparently “spite” is not an ‘appropriate answer’ to “What motivates you?”

Forget pulling all-nighters and chugging coffee until it’s practically coursing through your veins. You know what gets me hyped up? Earl Grey tea on slow sunny mornings after a good night’s sleep. Submitting an assignment early, knowing you’ve completed it to the best of your ability. Reading for pleasure. That feeling of limbless relaxation after a good workout. Unearthing all your buried interests and falling in love with them over and over again.

Repeat after me: success is not suffering. Success is nOT-

i am allowed to hurt. i am allowed to cry and be upset and feel my feelings even when they aren’t positive. it does not mean i am not a positive person. it does not make me bad to feel bad.

“If there ever comes a day when you wake up to the sound of uncertain feelings for me, do not stay any longer. Tell me that you need to go, tell me that I am no longer the one. Make it quiet and gentle. I will understand.”
