"I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited."
-Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals
I might like a girl.
My face will flush
caused by the thought of that girl.
I might talk to the girl
get to know that girl,
Love that girl
be with that girl,
Potentially marry that girl,
spend the rest of my life with that girl
But the only thing that keeps me apart from that girl,
is knowing that people will stare.
They will care angrily.
They will fight to keep me apart from that girl,
because, I just happen to be a girl who loves another girl,
in an unapproving world.

Exchange by Bryson Tiller will always hold an exclusively special place in my heart. Currently patiently waiting for Serenity
I caught a glimpse of her dark soul and a taste of her poisoned lips ever since then, my soul has been mourning her absence and crying for more
my dark and lone mind
Yes, I was infatuated with you: I am still. No one has ever heightened such a keen capacity of physical sensation in me. I cut you out because I couldn't stand being a passing fancy. Before I give my body, I must give my thoughts, my mind, my dreams. And you weren't having any of those.

white sand, waves crashing on the shoreline, wind blowing from the west i decided to allow the sand to drown my feet as i walked across the shore appreciating the tranquility in the air, i lingered in a spot once in a while to rejoice in the breezy weather with the sound of waves splashing and the 1975âs fallingforyou
for a moment i got lost in the oceanâs ethereal beauty and i envied the moon for being able to see it everyday, i lingered there as the moon vowed its love for the ocean wishing i could do the same to you but i knew better than to break my own fragile heart like that as unfortunately the feelings arenât reciprocal
i looked down catching the moment where the waves kissed the shore over and over again more passionately each time as if it were its last time every time and it reminded me of the endless love i had to pour all over you if only youâd let me
snapping back to reality i realized it was foolish of me to turn that euphoric moment into a melancholy one so i continued walking with you on my mind still i thought of how impeccable this moment would be with your presence just you, me and the ocean...

do u ever like feel so absurdly reluctant to do things. like it ainât even procrastination or laziness anymore u just physically and mentally canât bring yourself to do anything. u really, really just wanna binge watch youtube until your mind numbs completely or lie on the floor and stare into the abyss. and itâs not like u donât have âmotivationâ or anything or even that u donât want to do it, itâs just. u canât. idk how ppl just. Do Things. get up and go at it. i have to have an entire existential crisis and like, watch a goddamn motivational film or something first before i do the smallest thing. and itâs june for fuckâs sake.
life is like the short flash of lightning
so bright it is blinding my eyes
and if i blink the spectacle has already disappeared
i only see it when itâs over and i close them
the flash burned blue into my pupils
the thunder a bitter aftertaste
like always i wish
to have kept my eyelids openÂ
and truly see for onceÂ
that spectacle that is life
"Be with me always - take any form - drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I can not live without my life! I can not live without my soul!"
-Emily BrontĂŤ, Wuthering Heights
