being stressed and wanting a hug but having no one physically around to hug you fucking SUCKS

love having to avoid Facebook all day because seeing everyone celebrating with family when I can't fucking sucks. I'm ready for it to be over.

I'm thankful my mom always wants to go out and look at Christmas lights every year. I definitely need the little moment of happiness this year.

I wish grief didn't exist and that it didn't have a fucking chokehold on me.

angry sea
violent waves
slice the sky…

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.
