I hope whatever you’re hoping for
In this experience
Meets you there

Your emotion doesn’t need to be justified
For it to be valid
To be felt

For Alan Watts once said
“It is unacknowledged hatred
That leads to violence”
Inspired by Alan Watts’ piece, “No Wrong Emotions” which revolutionized my relationship with emotions and how they are to be revered. Each one of them.

Numbing the pain
Is so much easier than feeling it

I wanted to take a few shots tonight
Sit in the buzz
And not the grief and sorrow
But I’m afraid I’ll get lost in the toxic substance
Just like many others in my family have
It’s why I don’t keep it in my place
I don’t want the option
So I eliminate it altogether
For nights like these
Where I want to numb myself

How do I let a guy know I like him
I haven’t had many interactions with them
But I also think my small hints aren’t working
I’m nervous as hell
But he hasn’t made any efforts to get to know me
update: neediness clouds your judgement heavily; i read a romance novel to quench the desire and no longer want him the way i did before (thanks unrealistic imagination)

Update 2: honestly, don’t know if he’s clueless, shy, or just not into me

Update 3: He has a girlfriend .-.

Update 4: they broke up; we all graduated; he lives in California now and I don’t feel the same towards him

I hope you understand what it’s like to be alone
So that when you meet someone
You’re able to appreciate their presence
More deeply

I wonder what it’s like
To be loved by someone
Romantically

I see people kiss in movies
And run my fingertips along my lips gently
Wondering what it’s like

I yearn for it
But don’t know how to go about it
