All of the times spilled out of my mouth like ink on a page and I couldn't have been more embarrassed nor more relieved in my entire life.
Telling the truth is such an experience
I'd suggest you try it some time
It's truly freeing
Would the World hold on

when in subconsciousness

of every homini haunts

the unforgiven horrors:

the mass destruction,

abolition, slaughter,

genocide, slavery

wages, sweat, and treason.




Please, unnamed power,
send me on another planet.
I want to resign. I want to resign.

Love lasts about seven years. That's how long it takes for the cells of the body to totally replace themselves.
i don't like the idea of a me without you
i don't know how to be okay with this

to hold a star
would be a magnificent thing
but where would i hold it?
my arms?
my head?
my tongue?

yes

to hold a star on my tongue
i’d cough up a slew of new constellations
and put them into place
form nebulas
taste the moon- any moon
eat a planet
or a comet
bathe in stardust
sleep on clouds
fly over a supernova

if i could hold a star

i have a bulimic personality
taking in
more and more
until
all at once,
i snap,
throwing up words
of regret,
then looking down
at what i've done,
and
hating
myself.
sigh

You made me feel as though I was wrong
For needing air in my lungs
Love in my heart and
Reassurance somewhere inbetween.

When you think about it, no one’s beliefs sound any more ridiculous than anyone else’s.
I've been thinking about the Bible and different religions and beliefs and everything in general because I have so much time to think now. I believe that everyone has a right to believe whatever they wish, but isn't it crazy that people can be appalled and say, "how could they EVER think that?!". But in reality, don't we all have beliefs and thoughts that not everyone will agree with?

I should have opened my eyes instead of my heart.
My friend told me that my weakest point is that fact that I trust/open up too easily. And the more I think about it, the more I agree.

I slipped under the hot blanket of water
Feeling enveloped, surrounded, consumed
It felt dark and warm and I felt closed, safe
But when I opened my eyes, I saw
That I was under a false impression of security,
And was just as naked and exposed as before.
Don't take this as my needing to be shut off from society or people. It just feels nice to slip under a warm blanket sometimes. It feels safe.
