Loving the idealized version of another person.
What a terrible disservice to yourself and them.

We are not gods, we fleshly humans,
Ichorous and unfailing-

-our blood runs thin:
Hands on a clock.
See them-
-their truth,

and love.
Constricted
Restricted
Predicted
I Sigh
Addicted
conflicted
Resisted
a cry
Erase
Need space
Retrace
Still try
but why?!
Convicted
Depicted
Existed
A lie?
another good-bye?

Unspoken.
No token.

once broken
twice shy
If I am everyone and everything
And everything and everyone is me
Why do I feel so ******* lonely?
I've been binge watching Ryan Robinson on YouTube, and it's truly incredible. I skip over the religious stuff, but other than that, everything he says I agree with. In the last video I watched he said that we are all everything and everyone, and I thought of this. I really recommend you check out his stuff though, it's very raw, unedited content that might be hard to watch if you're attention span is very used to short form content that you can doom scroll, but it's so wise. Sending love and hugs ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It was cold in your dorm.
I choked on my silences.
I felt unwelcome,
and briefly— desired.

You walked me to the stop,
Said I was almost running—
As I waited for my bus,
the plastic bench felt cozier.
Roses aren't always red
Knew days are quite few
Today set though yesterday
My gawd tomorrow's cost of living
has yet to improve
