queen of wands

We’re all projects and products of fighting apathy.

I’m the pieces of the impact the roaring has had on me:

From best friends, to boyfriends, to loners who try—

Despite my intentions of pure flint and stone—to master me.

You’re a glowing halo bleeding mortal red

From the twists and turns; eternally drained.

Baby, you cannot throw knives and bitter daggers in vain

Of everyone you’ve loved when fatigue is your middle name.

Or, I guess, you could. You could deflect being saved.

But we’re all born with defects and it turns them away.

I’m paying a visit in my mind to every ghost of mine when I’m on the highway;

Your entrance, my exit, his home, her mother’s getaway;

I’m learning everyday to be patient and I hope we all can be, too.

It’s everything I’ve loved and cursed in my life

It’s beckoning me to see the sword for the hilt

My pitfalls are in the cracks in my voice, but

My resilience is in the healing of my word choice.

The Colour Between (yellow and green)

How come everyone else always gets to be special besides me. They never write the poems about me. Sometimes in my life I just want to be the person that people write about that makes other people wonder who this magical mystery girl is. The answer is never Lulla. Nooooo why would it be? I must not be remarkable enough. I am so alone in the world already. I have so much love to give and nobody ever wants any. It makes me so sad. Chartreuse is the colour of loneliness. Goodnight.

I remember first learning that you can cry from any emotion, that emotions are chemical levels in your brain and your body is constantly trying to maintain equilibrium. so if one emotion sky rockets, that chemical becomes flagged and signals the tear duct to open as an exit to release that emotion packaged neatly within a tear. Everything made sense after learning that. That sudden stability of your emotions after crying. How crying is often accompanied by the inability to feel any other emotion in that precise moment. And it is especially beautiful knowing that it is even possible to experience so much beauty or love or happiness that your body literally can’t hold on to all of it. So what I’ve learned is that crying signifies that you are feeling as much as humanely possible and that is living to the fullest extent. So keep feeling and cry often and as much as needed

SHIT WHAT

Also let yourself cry. It really is a biochemical release valve to dump out all the chemicals that make you feel stuff.

I honestly think one reason men in western culture have so many problems is that we don’t let them cry, and literally their brains get stuffed with all this crap that doesn’t have a release valve. Men, please cry. You’ll feel better. It’s ok. You are not lesser for taking care of your health.

This is why tears from different emotions look different under an electron microscope. They’re literally made up of different things. 

Happy tears are structurally different than sad tears than angry tears than overwhelmed tears etc.
