Isn't it kinda crazy when you can actually feel yourself breaking.
Like when you tap a plate and can tell if it's going to crack
Or something like that.
My mum taught me it's something like that.
And life's funny cause all while you're breaking it continues.
And you're making a strangers morning latte
And you're listening to other people ask your favourite lecturer questions
And you might be about to fall to pieces.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm ever actually going to break.
Sometimes I think I broke ages ago and just gathered the biggest pieces,
Leaving the small shards of myself behind.

Always the lover
Never the loved
Always the listener
Never the heard
Always the giver
Never the receiver
Always the healer
Never the healed
Always the helper
Never the helped
Always the hugger
Never the hugged
Never forgetting
Always forgotten

I don't love myself yet
But I dislike myself less than I did yesterday.

Your beauty is not what sets a thousand ships to sail,
It is the moon that controls the sea.
It is not the beauty some men struggle in vain against,
It is the wind that sings its serenades to the tree.
Your laughter is not what mothers record for family movies,
It is the sound angels play in heaven.
It is not what movie directors long for,
It is the motivation for the comedic profession.
Your heart is not made to be broken,
It's made to prove the existence of literary love.
Your love is not manufactured to please others,
You will always be so much more than enough.

I will pour my love into you,
Saving myself no emergency reservoir,
Deeming you deserving as soon as
You said you "have not felt love before".
I will forget and forgive in a second,
to enable me to love you more,
and treat you like you walk on clouds
All because you said you have only ever experienced prickly affection.
I will hug you tightly with love,
and you will swamp me with yours
grateful to have someone to give it to.
I will fall for you,
harder and faster than I have ever fell before.
Unaware that I have been pushed
by your claims of inexperienced love.

Art flows out of your brain,
Beauty pours from your pen,
Your words enchant people,
So write today, and write tomorrow, and write again

How well you weave your web,
For me to fly straight into,
How well you teach me how to love,
Even when you don't mean to.

Watch me crack myself open
To let myself love you
Only for you to disregard the broken parts
Like you aren't the reason for the raw edges

it is like a fistful of barbed wire
to pull myself out of lava

Maybe
instead of falling apart
we should try
tearing apart
this world
and set fire
to the ones
that burnt us
