Joshua, to Seventeen : If you ever broke the bracelets I made for you, I expect a fancy Christmas present.
i never knew how much i wanted to be awake until i felt the sun shining on my skin in the early minutes of two in the afternoon, until i saw how dark my life had been previously and how brightly it changed with just the simple addition of a window
an entire SOAIF mini-concert from 2013
i
know it's tired and
i know it's printed everywhere in every corner of the world but
i am prying it open to seek a truth
"what is meant for me is for me"
they paste it on slides they repeat it into boxes they don't blink at the ring light they never pause or flake
their limbs stretch and stretch, lean gold hard cherished
these are arms that lift them up hills arms that hold boxes and books touch bricks don't flinch away
eyes that reflect and invite
open open open for business
teeth always laid just so
a certainty a house built on stable point

i don't know how to uproot doubts, my garden is choked no sunlight resting warm hands on the ground spreading toes in soil feeling air move through mind still water seeping into it drip drop inch by inch -

put down the vase they're in and
look and look and look
i want once once bless-ed once
to touch the world with these hands
to breathe a breath deep in my chest and feel it fill me
to refuse to spit it out
thinking bout things i said. why did i.
