hard to believe there are actually people out there who think that big noses are ugly and unattractive … like what the fuck is wrong with you ?

..-. .-. .. . -. -.. ... .... .. .--. | friendship | dosti
she loves me like it’s nothing
like it costs her nothing at all
as if i’m not the ruined creature i see reflected in her eyes when she looks my way.
she has seen me snarling, clawing and scratching as i struggle for air.
still she leans in as i rest my head on her shoulder
as if she doesn’t see the blood from my cannibalised lips dripping from my canines.
she hugs me as if she sees a teddy bear when she sees me rather than the thing i know myself to be.
she knows. how?
he texts me that he misses me.
i’m a terrible friend.
my voice is hoarse when i speak.
his words create paintings, mine don’t make a mark.
my silence is more notable than my presence.
he still misses me. how?
in the first few days i knew him he told me he loves me.
love?
he said he saw something beautiful. something handsome. someone worthy.
i could only see fractals in the water, the broken image reflected back to me. something shattered stared into my eyes.
a puzzle with pieces askew.
he saw something within me. how?
she gave me my first nickname.
one only she could use.
something to be called by, someone to belong to.
i felt reborn.
she created somebody. a person i could not forge. how?
in a chorus, i hear their screams as they shout their love.
my hands cover my ears
i cannot hear them over my own.
