#yearner
they say you can love someone to the point it hurts
and that is yearning in itself
but yearning to me
is that feeling that gets me through endless readings
and burnout
and breakdowns
and god when will this end
yearning
is laughing at you trying to nap in my bright room
and failing
so you instead ask me to stay beside you
because you nap better that way
yearning
is the way you move to the side of the road
because you feel like you have to protect me
yearning
is our faces barely an inch apart
and forgetting i had to study
yearning
is your warmth
and hope that everything will be ok

I yearn for a feeling
a feeling i have never even felt
it feels close,
but yet so far
like nostalgia of an old memory
or something whispered decades ago,
yet i still reach
trying to grasp it
part of me wonders
if ill feel it
Ever.

I used to be terrified of water — I swore I’d never touch it again. Then one day, I saw the most beautiful beach I’d ever laid eyes on. It was so breathtaking that, for a moment, I forgot my fear. I wondered what it would feel like to swim in something that perfect even knowing it could drown me. And I gave in — not because I wasn’t afraid but because the beauty felt worth the risk. But once I was in, I realized I was drowning — slowly and silently. Not because it was cruel but because it didn’t care. It stayed untouched while I struggled. That’s when it hit me : even it seems like the most beautiful thing ever doesn’t mean it couldn’t hurt you — some things just aren’t meant for you.
