you’re in his dms, the thought of me haunts him to death
Bold of you to assume i need a toxic person in my life. I am independent and I GASLIGHT myself. ✨ON. MY. OWN.✨
please, please and please.
I just want to live in a big haunted Victorian house in walking distance of a bakery, a library, a bookshop, a forest, and a river and where I can befriend local ghosts and forest spirits. Not sure why that's asking so much.
My problem is that I want to be adored like a goddess by one person and be treated as a shadow by every single soul at the same time
Friday nights & Clandestines
The world is small when it is limited to your own room
And the thick smoke of his endless cigarettes
And cobwebs on the framed pictures of the lovers time buried/
The furniture is dusty with ashes of my past, but he doesn't mind that
He's okay with the fact
that we'll never last and the passion will wilt away like his cigarettes/
2 A.M. and Loving in adagio
Flesh meshing with mine and our heartbeats synchronised
We dont have to speak to communicate
As every caress is open to interpret
We are in separate wonderlands/
The night is unfurling and I wonder if our obscenity woke up the sun but
I cannot think clear because I am inebriated on the cadence of his voice and my head is on his chest
And I listen to him like I listen to that damned song/
Carefully/ intently/ on repeat
From start to finish.
The soundtrack is coming to an end
And so is his last cigarette
I will lay on his side of the bed and watch him leave
But the smoke will stay
And I won't open any windows
I'd let me suffocate/
I'm a writer before I'm a mistress
Hence I'll write love confessions with the remains of our night
And my fingers in the ashtray
Oh how I envied your cigarettes as they
Kiss your mouth more than I do/
But it's okay, you suck the life out of both of us.
why are books so expensive all i want is to be lost in another world with haunted old houses and coffee shops and vintage aesthetics and identify with the slightly twisted, mysterious and melancholic characters whose traits i subconsciously adopt lmao
every day i wake up and discover a new health problem that i have

my mother has been worried about all the wrong things
i’m not about to fall in love with a monster, not the way you did
you’re scared i’ll be gullible, malleable like you are,
falling for the tricks my father used, the curl of tongue, the tilted lips
but oh,
can’t you see?
i’m the monster here, born from the same flesh you were mauled by,
my tongue curls and my lips tilt,
you’ve been worried about all the wrong things.
