We always say, "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade." But what if I don't want lemonade? What if I want a chocolate cake? Or maybe a cheeseburger? Can life at least change things up a little? That would be nice.🥹🩸🥀
you might be a writer if:
• you're a devotee to one writing software
• playlists exist for every project
• but one song gets put on loop anyway
• spite fuels you through imposter syndrome
• a difficult sentence ruins your day
• you hallucinate scenes & it's a good thing
Sometimes you're the villain in their story simply because you wouldn't let them treat you the way they've treated everyone else. You didn't comply, so they had to vilify
freedom is a dawn we renew
with the courage to rise
we honor it by tending its flame
each heart awake to its promise
each hand carrying its warmth
toward those whose morning
is still on its way
To every soul reading this, I wish I could hold your hand for a moment, just long enough to remind you that you matter. Some of you are carrying battles no one sees, and I hope life finds a thousand gentle ways to remind you that you are not alone 🖤
Being desired is beautiful, but there is a rarer intimacy in someone who wants your thoughts, understands your silences, and finds you just as fascinating when nothing physical is being offered
Some people reach places inside you that even your own thoughts have never visited. And somehow, without ever belonging to you, they become part of everything you are. That is the strange intimacy of the soul, how someone can live beneath your skin without ever touching it
her words settle over me
weighty
soft
like a creature giving itself fully
wrapping me in these linguistic wings
but also carving her thoughts
into my heart
through the ribcage that could not hold
my blood away
from her tongue
mingling
my pulses with her spit
that dripping conduit
from her mind to me
