A Girl to Cherish

She maintains a steady gaze,
With desire, or makes my heart pursue her as a chase.

She has a smile that melts my heart
And pierces through the uncertainty in my head.

She is kind and modest, embracing everyone,

But she maintains a cold distance.
She is steady and keeps her space,
She doesn’t want to hurt anyone and wishes the same.

But her fate doesn’t let her desires come true.

That’s the secret behind her steady gaze.

all in a group
talking after church
they asked you about a girl
you denied, denied, denied
you keep looking at me now
“she’s just not my type”
you’re looking at me
with eyes that wonder if i care
if im possibly jealous
it gives me a spark
a glimmer of hope
cuz why would you care if i cared?
i must be delusional

Ashes

ashes are the softest thing i ever walked through
softer than clouds
softer than rabbit fur
softer than Remi fur
white ashes are dead, black ashes can still burn
watching their skeletons appear as the carbon is all burned up
leave it for a day and check tomorrow
walk barefoot through the dry ashes
burn your foot on buried charcoal
still smoldering
I want to burn you out of my head until it’s all pale and dead forever
only then can I walk amongst your memories contentedly
There’s nothing left to hurt me anymore

I just changed my HP description thing
From female to gender questioning
I don’t know why the hell that’s so scary
But yesterday
I really did not feel like a girl
As if I don’t need more this is also stressing me out a bit lately. I’ve been feeling like I’m not really fully a girl some days more than others and I am already part of this community and I love it but it’s still scary and I just didn’t like seeing the F next to my username yesterday so I changed it. I took a quiz and it says I’m girlflux which sounds about right but I don’t know. So yeah idk ahhhhhuhsjninkjskjnsjknskjns. I’m trying to convince myself this is nothing but it’s been harder to do lately
There are
majestic and enormous
waterfalls
that many people come to
see and admire
there are several waterfalls
that tourists are busy taking pictures of

There is
a small and humble
waterfall
that a few people come to
see and contemplate
there is a waterfall alone
they become friends and return to homes.

your eyelids,
shielding your eyes
on a rainy day.

the lint
in your pants.

the guitar pick
you strum with.

the makeup
on your face.

the maths book
you draw all over.

the stickers
on your locker.

sleep paralysis demons are so scary.
they haunt me at the times i can’t move,
at the times i feel chained.

but at the same time,
why does it feel comforting?
it’s comforting knowing someone is always watching
over me
at my most vulnerable state.

why do sleep paralysis demons feel like a solace
when they’re supposed to make you afraid?
this isn't abt sleep paralysis demons.
