The thing I hate
That second you disappear
Feels way longer
I wish to force my eyes open
So I can see the light
That the angel is bathed in
But my eyes water
Oh no I don't want to
But I must

thank you 6.21.25 (8:42 pm / 20:42)
i think i made someone's day happier today

i don't think you have any idea how wonderful that is
the feeling that instead of ruining something like i always do
i made it better
you'll never know how happy that made me
to realize i could help someone else be happy too

she said i was a star
the kind that comes out from behind clouds
on a too-dark night

i have never been told anything more beautiful

all the stars are on your side, liana
thank you

Living at camp
Parents far away
I do not call home
I wake in the morning
I get myself ready
And walk to where I need to be
My family cannot isolate me
My friends are my roommates
This is freedom

happiness hums in the quiet light,
laughs that bloom without a why,
the warmth is caught
in passing glances-
bare tlfeet dancing through the sky
all these feelings,
tangled and small,
easily labelled as one;
happy.
thought i should wrote something happier to cheer myself up

to be a teenager is to be in those social media group chats
to be a teenager is to know the hot goss, to know everyone's life
to be a teenager is to gush over boys and giggle when they look at you
to be a teenager is to be reckless, and funny, and happy
it's a social norm
it's known that if you don't do any of that, you're left out

so no, I'm not in the group chat with the funny name
no, i don't know the hot goss on jenny and tyler
no, I don't like any boys — i'm trying to figure out my sexuality
no, i don't like to be reckless, i'm not funny and...
i'm not happy
but maybe being a teenager isn't just that-
maybe it's the quiet, chaotic, messy in-betweens
maybe it's the questions with no answers yet
maybe it's the becoming, not the being
.....right?
wrote this when i felt left out.

Not everything sacred needs to be born of suffering.

Not every acknowledgement needs to come from rock bottom.

My love,
you are allowed to feel peace.
You are allowed to live a joyful life.
You are allowed to experience softness and call it sacred.

So stop using your pain as proof of your depth.
It’s time to retire that narrative,
that your pain is the most interesting thing about you—it’s not!
There are hundreds of beautiful reasons for your existence,
but suffering isn’t one of them.

You can explain every scar.
But when it comes to healing?
You stall.
Because healing isn’t poetic.
It’s messy, boring, frustrating.

Peace makes you suspicious.
If things go too well for too long,
your brain starts poking at old wounds or inventing new ones.
You miss the chaos even though you claim to want peace.

But here’s what you need to know;
you’re still becoming.
You’re still growing.
You can still be profound without bleeding for it.

So allow yourself to heal,
and let joy into your life,
because the best version of you isn’t your pain,
it’s your rebirth.

Don't punish your body for carrying the weight of your soul.
You are meant to be alive.
Very important message.

The rain has a lot to say,
but nobody wants to hear it.
The rain keeps it's emotions bottled up,
and nobody notices when it breaks.

When it does break, everyone stays inside,
they get away from the rain,
not wanting to be affected.

The rain goes to hide beneath the mask of the sun,
and it watches as everyone comes out to enjoy.
Because everybody wants to be affected by the sun.

So the rain shows it's true mask beneath the dark skies,
at night when almost nobody can hear or watch it.
It shows it's true mask, the moon,
and it's shocked upon seeing the truth.

Someone does watch the rain,
They dance in it.
The rain smiles upon noticing the truth,
someone will love it for who it is,
not for being the sun or the moon,
but for being itself.
This one was inspired from that one song "In The Rain."
Look at me
Make my heart run
Let your eyes
Take me over
Drive me insane
Let me see myself
Within your amber
Trap me
Keep me within your gaze
Let me be the insect
Stuck in time
Yet perfectly comfortable
Allow me to rest
Amongst your protective
Safe calming revitalizing eyes
Until you need protecting
Then release me and now
Watch me
Protect you
