“source?” divine intuition, gut instinct, and cryptic symbolism from my dreams

touch-starvation needs to be written with emphasis on the starving part. you are hungry to be touched. so hungry that even the very taste of it makes you nauseous. it has been long since anything has ever touched you, ever fed you - that your body has grown more used to that gnawing emptiness more than anything else. it's better for you to be held, to eat but it makes you sick to try. you know

[image description: black text on a white background reading: reasons to not kiss him:

you weren't raised to love tender.

when he's around all you do is tremble. when he's around you want to get on your knees. look how much power he has over you. it's dangerous.

he's too good at forgiving and you're too good at violence.

you know what they say about monsters. you know what happens to the boys who love them. are you going to do that to him?

your hands don't know how to be gentle. think about the last beautiful thing that shattered in your palms. the fresh rosebuds crumbling between your fingers like a bruise. you wolf-boy, you war machine. you wouldn't know how to hold something magic and not destroy it.

if you hurt him it might kill you

if you hurt him you might kill yourself.

you are very bad at rehabilitation. this is one addiction you'd fail to give up. he's going to ruin you for all other kisses and all other boys and you'll spend the rest of your life trying to forget his name.

you still aren't sure he isn't a dream.

if you kiss him, you might wake up.

reasons to kiss him:

because he's beautiful.

because he asked.

because he preceded please with, i'm not afraid of you.
