AH I CANT believe I sent this to him 3 minutes ago and he saw it instantly. I’m going to leave it at that. No words. I hope I’m not being weird. AH I’m screaming internally, it’s too late at night. I just wanted to share my bit of hope. I’m going to be positive about it. Goodnight world. No words only poem.

“How do I look away now that I have seen you?”

— — Rachel Mennies, from “April 18, 2017,” The Naomi Letters

[whatisyourcauseforhope]

I keep thinking of you all the time. I don’t know how to get you off my mind. I feel a little sad when I realise it’s only me who thinks of the other but I’ll continue to admire and support you from the sidelines! Ah. Too many feelings. BUT THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL.

when I look at him, I feel like a small kid who's staring at the moon knowing that you’d never get to make it yours but still chooses to admire it every day.

[whatisyourcauseforhope]

that’s how I feel about A, he’s so out of bounds, out of reach, shining, sparkling, winning, excelling but I still love him so much

[misscrappy]

Hug me like the night holds the moon.

[whatisyourcauseforhope]

It’s such a beautiful way to put it. I’ll be thinking of this for a while.

i used to see you so differently, like i was the wound and you were the first aid kit. i admit we did not fit but i loved how good you treated me, i was down bad and fell so hard for you. it is true, i was hopeless and I am sorry for wanting you to clean up my mess.

[whatisyourcauseforhope]

I wanted to be hurt so that you could tend to my wounds and comfort me, I’m sorry and I’m glad I wasn’t brave to act

“How odd I can have all this inside me and to you it’s just words.”

— The Pale King, David Foster Wallace (via existential-celestial)

[whatisyourcauseforhope]

Why is everything so relatable today? So many hopes, wishes, thoughts, worries, feelings for you. And none of it is known to you. I wish I could share them with you once again. And again. Again indefinitely.
