but again, do i, individually, have to mean anything?
does he mean anything?
he’s nice. he’s sweet. he’s safe.
am i here just because he gave the bare minimum?
to a person like me, does that look like gold?
is it better when we’re together?
how do i feel for him
what do i feel for him
im so lost
but im not lost
there’s shared vulnerability
is that all this is?
there’s intimacy
is that an added factor?
there’s good times, laughter
is it just supplementary?
does it mean anything?
do i, individually, mean anything?
i wish i could be mad at you for the things you did
i’m only mad at you because you left
i would’ve forgiven you for dragging me through mud if it meant it’d be your hand dragging me through it
i’m in love with you
i’m stuck between wishing you’d come back and letting you go
i’ve met you every night since the day you left
the only difference is you’re actually not here anymore
but you are
when i close my eyes
here you are
my sweet boy
things haven’t changed
in my mind, you’re still here
i wish they change
i wish i see the reality
things haven’t changed
i still plan my day around you
i tick all the things i’ll tell you
i come back
the clock hits 7
and i tell you everything
i look at your face
but my eyes are closed
i tell you everything
i meet you every night
innumerable times when i imagined being in a library when i was younger now im at the library of my dreams but the girl who wanted to be here got lost amidst the chaos
longing
yearning
an ideal life
which is ideal from the trenches but not when you get out of the trenches
longing
yearning
to fill up my heart
and to fill up his
with whatever little i have to give
longing
yearning
to be something more than a body
longing
so much longing
there’s longing
so much longing
to just belong
wholly
deeply
fully
just belong, to someone or someplace
just be accepted
just be normal
just walk with the breeze that life brings instead of its storms
there’s longing
so much longing
and ive waited too long
timeline of events:

a looks nothing like me
q to self- what is the trigger?
points to be considered:
-relation to person
-its role in the trigger
