It’s late, and I can’t sleep.
I’m thinking about the way your
hand always felt so weightless in mine,
but the absence of it—of you—
feels so heavy.

It’s late, and I can’t sleep.
I’m thinking about the way
the beat of your heart
and the waves of your breathing
created a rhythm just for my soul.

It’s late, and I can’t sleep.
I’m thinking about the way
the skin crinkles at the corners of your eyes
whenever you smile or laugh.

It’s late, and I can’t sleep.
I’m thinking about the way
it all went to ****.

It’s late, and I can’t sleep.
I’m thinking about the way
that I broke your heart,
and then you broke mine.

It’s late, and I can’t sleep.
I’m thinking about all the tears,
and the pain,
and the emptiness.

It’s late, and I can’t sleep.
I’m thinking about how
maybe you aren’t my soulmate,
and that I don’t know how to exist without you—
my best friend.

It’s late,
And I can’t ******* sleep
It’s late and I can’t sleep
Yes I’m still writing about the same relationship
Sorry if it’s annoying and ******

To be loved is to be seen
And I never realized just how invisible I felt
Until you came along
And saw me in full color

Teetering on the edge of my existence,
I do not fear death.
As she extends her hand to me
She whispers promises of infinite
peace
And happiness
And nothingness
As I look into her luring eyes
I finally feel at ease
with everything I’d leave behind
The keres: the goddesses of death in Greek mythology

One by one
the list gets longer.
Promises of friendship
turn into nothing more than tourism.
The word "goodbye"
has built a permanent home
On the tip of my tongue.
But despite the familiarity,
It still leaves me with a bitter taste in my mouth.
Will it always be like this?
Cleaning up my drafts

For so long
I’ve made plans and spoken of my future
With no intention of getting there.
How nice it is to be reminded sometimes
That life is a beautiful thing
And still worth living
This may seem silly, but tonight I had dinner with some friends from work, one of whom i talk to everyday despite her leaving 3 months ago. I had such a fun time tonight and was so grateful to have spent that time with them and for the opportunity to do it again in the future.

Why do I love you
Why do I care
You’ve destroyed me completely
Yet you call and I’m there.
The anger is setting in. Am I finally moving towards acceptance?

You could rip out my heart
And hand it to me on a silver platter
And I would still love you
We are toxic and I need to let you go. And I’m in a bad headspace and I’m angry so no ******* title
