“Death became lovelier and lovelier and lovelier, even still. Death became a god, a goddess, a longing, a lost hope, a dream. Death, the flowers, blooming under my black bed.”
— Helaena C Moon

“you wake up one morning with lonely fingers. so you draw a heart on every fingernail like a lover’s gentle caress a heart on the corner of your eyes like a lover’s gentle gaze a heart on the bow of your lips like a lover’s gentle kiss you’d carve a heart into your bones if you could, but no lover can reach deep enough, honey, and this is not how you learn to love yourself. let’s try it again. you wake up one morning and the air is cold. so you kiss the mirror trying to find warmth there. you kiss the mirror trying to remember what heat tastes like on your tongue what love feels like against your lips. you kiss the mirror but the glass is cold, honey, and this is not how you learn to love yourself. let’s try it again.”
— keep trying. keep trying. you’ll get there someday. ( j.p. ) || napowrimo #4
