take me back to that city where nobody knew me, where i could pretend and pretend and be so achingly close to being myself.

remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. live it, feel it, cling to it. i want to become acutely aware of all I’ve taken for granted.

you never get to stop. no matter how tired you are, how confused. you've just got to keep living... and you've got to have faith that, eventually, you'll be glad you did.

i want to change my bones to match the silhouette of me in your head.

you're a poem left unwritten, a scab left to infect, fungi grown beneath the weeds. you're stuck to my soul, in one way or another.

you never left me when you died. you're still here, with that scarf you gave me when i was sick. you're still here, with my shoulders wet with my mother's tears. i'll be here, waiting for you to come pick me up from school again.

i wish you, most sincerely, a love that you will live for.

hold me, tender like a mother. tender like a wound.

i am afraid of a lot of things, but mostly, most sincerely, i am afraid of being completely unraveled by you, and you finding nothing you want in here.

is to be in love with blue, then, to be in love with a disturbance? or is love itself the disturbance? and what kind of madness is it anyway, to be in love with something constitutionally incapable of loving you back?

my love for you drips heavy, like the blood from a butcher's knife.

do you ever think of me like i think of you? does the rain above ever think of the churning lava beneath the soil?

i get it. this won't stop until I die. but when i die, i want it to hurt. [...] because that means it meant something. it means i am something, at least... pretty amazing to be something, at least...
