my heart is a ripe fruit rotting in my chest
JERK
NO. You haven’t heard me.
Words don’t flow like they use to,
Movements don’t bloom like they use to,
Moments don’t fly like they use to.
You don’t even know the beginning of it.
Chances? Won’t let me take them.
Laughter, you know it so very well.
Mocking is second nature.
JERK-
Oh wait, that’s me.
I’m sorry, was it something you thought?
You contort your body like it's written in your code,
Come hear me hiss. Fear not, I don’t bite- Waiting for your calculated strike.
“simply remembering what it feels like to love creatures that aren’t human. A nameless sadness, the fading away of the birds. The fading away of the animals. How lonely it will be here, when it’s just us.”
— Charlotte McConaghy, Migrations

“You were supposed to love me, how do you screw up this badly. How did I screw up this badly.” - Delaney Hunt.
DATE WITH FATE
To live, to see your face in the future
One day will all be worth it. I know you
Will bring me COUNTLESS smiles, so all the
Hard work now is worth it and brings me one
Step closer to you, to know one day I will
Get to hold your hand again makes
Everything worth it. Someday yeah, but fate
Will bring us together.
WX.
I don’t owe you
Anything.
Nothing at all.
I don’t have anything else
To offer.
But you know that – don’t you?
Just look at your damn sweater
I have knit you everything I could
It now has holes and you trip on the
Threads.
Perhaps you would like to tangle
Yourself in those threads
They didn't let you down
You did.
You dig, dig, and dig.

i love you because i don’t know how to love myself
because it’s so much easier than loving myself
Little bunny, what will you bring? You know it’s nothing new but it’s just as important. Little bunny don’t be crude, my pain is not your food.
Let’s hop into the new year.
