#overtalking

I swear I’m trying to shut up

I wish I knew how to only speak when my words are more beautiful than the silence but I can’t seem to stop myself from trying to fill in the space between us with all of the thoughts going on inside my head. Too many things lurk in the silence for me to stop mumbling because I want to keep my head safe from all my insecurities that the deafening quiet brings out of me time and time again.

Turns out talking doesn’t always heal you and it just adds more noise pollution to this world already filled with empty promises and superfluous words. I say far too much, I overshare and I can’t seem to stop the stream of words that leaves my mouth. My lips move too quickly for me to be able to keep up and I cannot imagine I am good company when I say nothing of value but I need you to know that what is left unsaid is exactly what I wish you could hear.

I made Eden as well! Hope you like it!

Author’s Notes: Oooooooh wow. Yep, it’s official. You’ve designed her with a customizer better than I could’ve designed her myself. And smaller details, like the cross in the eyes, angel wings, heart on the sleeve, and flower crown... I don’t know how you knew, but those fit her meaning in such a perfect way that I’m starting to think you might be stalking my character journals. And you made her look like an absolute QUEEN-- (*cough cough* pose of the high school rebel who the cool kids envy *cough cough*), so thank you for, you know, EVERYTHING. This is closer than you may expect to her actual design, it’s insane.

Quote of the day by Alan Watts: 'A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts. So, he loses touch with realit

Modern life keeps people constantly occupied with thoughts, worries, notifications, and endless mental noise, which is why Alan Wattss quote

[i-just-dont-know-why-im-here]

I just feel like I've been saying all the wrong things recently

Everything is cycling though my head and I can't see anything but all the wrong words

Little comments here and little comments there

I can't keep my mouth shut so my friends don't confide in me

I feel like a child again saying words for the sake of words

I can't read the social queues of what to say and what not to say

Maybe I should just stop taking

Would it be better

Would it fix the mistakes I've already made

Will the people I care about forgive me or just throw me away and think I can't change

What if I don't change
