just because you wish to be sweet and full of leaves and flowers does not mean you must be defenseless. even the gentlest of forests is full of teeth. you are allowed to be both the rose and the thorn. you are allowed to bite back if anyone grasps you with unkindness.

Who else literally does not talk
I believe there’s more than one soulmate for everyone,
Ten fingers and ten toes
I believe I met one of my soulmates
I believe it from the way he likes my nose
However, it is not our time
We know that is just the way it goes,
Writing letters of love in the dark
Vowing to save our bond for another day
MOONS
Tale of two moons, the one in the sky
And the one in the sea, and
That’s the way it’ll always be
Heart to heart
Eye to eye
Hands apart, and then They slowly pry
KNITTED2
Boy you are caught in the threads of your own
Thoughts.
You can’t break through, no.
You trip and stumble over these knitted paths,
They lead you somewhere dark- somewhere distant.
You’ve fallen down the rabbit hole with only the
String as rope to get you out.
You try to reach, but do you really?
Excuses excuses are all that’s ever heard.
Your ball of yarn is lost and you can’t even get out
Of bed.
What does it look like for one person to hold on while the other hand has let go? For me it looks like awkward car rides with no way home cause nothing lasts forever
It’s like sleeping in the same house but in different rooms
Just a girl, wrapped in a blanket, with the wind whistling and the rain storming outside, doing her research for her thesis, in a paratextual friendship with twenty-years-old Mary Shelley she will never know about because we are two centuries apart

i haven’t journaled in so long because i’m actually a bunny house wife and i’m busy feeding my kits. no but i’m so anxious to journal because once i start every single emotion that i’ve felt over the last few months will come out even the stuff i haven’t told my therapist and i’m not sure i’m ready yet to let it out… i feel like i need a breaking point, or a push at least
WORDS FROM THE HALLWAY
She had spun herself a web- not one of lies nor of truth-
Just a sticky situation to let others come into
It’s quite strange, to be a bird like her
For words and songs aren’t always heard
She declares her faith to one admirer
But the nest and the next she has no desire.
Birds can’t speak but she’s a flyer.
Watch her dive, watch her drive,
Watch her spin her web of crimes.
Watch those tears fall down others' faces,
Will she stop and slow her pace?
Twig legs no longer there,
She’s disgusted and caught in her hair.
Dare she move once more? Fuck those birds and slam the door.
