when did you start to abandon your strength...your might
when did you let him seize your essence, your grace leaving wounds that scar
when did fear grip you tight underneath a pendulum’s sway robbing your inner love
when did you forget every piece every part of your true whole self?

Tumblr media
The specter of progress
churns in my guts.
I could have been
so much but
I'm reduced to
a breathless poet,
writing apocalypses
with line breaks and
hope between the letters.

Writing in my head; Beautiful flowing sentences full of powerful phrases and witty dialogue.
Writing on my page: They did a thing and said some stuff. There was snark.

realising that you don't imagine reader as your own self when you are reading an x / reader fic just because of lack of self confidence that much hits hard. especially when you imagine the reader as someone else rather than yourself or at least the best version of yourself in your head. escaping from reality is good until you realize you are actually escaping from yourself. i don't know if it's just me, but it's so painful

I have been WRESTLING with writers block this past week. I mean, I must have stared blankly at my damn laptop screen for like 24 hours combined and wrote about 6 words. Today I thought "fuck it" and decided to try writing with pen and paper again like I'm sat at the back of my highschool geography class co-writing fanfic with my sister and I just WROTE THE WHOLE ASS CHAPTER THATS BEEN BOTHERING ME THIS ENTIRE TIME?????
Science side of Tumblr explain this sorcery

Growth is not
a straight line
nor is it a
fault line.
Growth is
a semicolon
placed where an
ellipsis
once slept.

if you are not willing to stretch your heart  to fit the things about her that normally would not fit then you know nothing of love, of what is real
do not be afraid to stretch and expand your love your heart has a magic to it, allowing it to envelop  it can except all the good and the bad of her
real love is comprised of both…
