hands always outstretched but never for touching / never for holding / it is to tell people that this is the only way to love me / at a distance.

George Seferis, translated by Rex Warner, from Poems translated from the Greek; "Argonauts,"
Your smile is your superpower. Go to the mirror and smile at yourself a little more everyday.
Self love Act #5, Notes to myself
"sometimes love means taking a step back. if u care about somebody, u should want them to be happy even if you wind up being left out"
ctto
My parents warned me, when i was younger— to never talk to strangers. They didn’t warn me, about your smile; about your voice; about your scent; about your beauty; and your mystery. You were a blackhole, taking every being and thing— that comes upon your path. you warned me before, all you have were negativity; how you were a mess. I am a curious astronomer, brave enough to go further; into the unknown. You warned me i’ll get hurt, honey you are a mystery; that i’m willing to unravel. You told me that you are no good; remember that nothing comes easy, how diamonds used to be coals. I believe that you were a star, the most brightest one in space; how you collapsed from pressure. Becoming what you are today, a large hole in space. Worry not my love, for i will unravel your secrets; i believe the beauty hidden in there. You are worthy of only brave men, i will explore what you hide inside; to bring glory to the star— the star the shined the brightest. Maybe you think lowly of yourself, how unworthy you are; but i promise you. Again and again; from time to time; from the bottom of my heart; i will be with you. You are worthy of love honey; you deserve unconditional love; you deserve to be happy; you deserve to be enough; you deserve to have happy kisses; you deserve to have poems for you; you deserve someone who’ll stay; you deserve so much more. I may not look extremely good; i may not be as charming; i may not be as rich; i may not be as funny; i may not be smart; as all of your past partners. I want you to know; i will be the sincerest one; i will be the patient one; i will be the practical one; i will be the wise one; and i will try to be the one. I will remind you everyday, how lucky i am to have found you.
Like the vastness of space, maybe this is the longest and weirdest thing you have read. I still hope that you are well and loved by others, lets meet one day when things are okay and until you become real; not just another figment of my imagination.
Spaces Beautiful
As I look up at the night sky,
I feel myself being absorbed by its vastness.
The more I stare,
The further I sink into its immense depth.
And before I know it,
I am there.
Among the empty spaces of a tranquil blue,
A soul wandering,
Searching,
Seeking,
For the light of the stars,
And the innocent shine of the moon.
Because not all of us want to be found,
Some of us just want to lose ourselves,
Into spaces beautiful.
-Mild Reflections
a little lost, a little afraid
This glimpse of absence are the frightening chills that wakes me up from my sleep. This excerpt from my life ahead, scares me the most of tomorrow without her.
