so much of taking care of yourself as an adult is just learning to eat at home and going on walks

way too passionate for casual

Ack, tumblr searching sucks. Do you know where I can find your poem about standing out in the pavement, suddenly you're older, that you're where you never thought you'd get?

yes yes! poem link <3

catch me admiring the dogwood trees as bitchily as possible

That is not depression; you are just dramatic and bitchy

Sounds like someone needs a walk ❤️

[schuylerpeck]

it will never not be funny to me that I can be curled up on the couch in a depressed little burrito, anguishing about life’s perils, decide to take myself on a walk and then by the time I get home again, I’m noticing pink dogwood petals get swept up in the wind, thinking the world ain’t too bad.

I want to love you so well, your heart relaxes its shoulders all the way down; your body lets out the breath its been holding. I want my love to be such a safe place, the walls never shiver with sharp tongues or high volume. a love solid enough, when you count your worries for the day, our happiness sits miles from the list.

I let my nails grow longer than usual and spend the afternoon tapping them against my office desk, a coffee mug, digging my fingerprints into smooth apple skin. soon enough, I imagine a closet of crimson, thick black sunglasses, cigarette smoke serpentining from the fault line of my mouth, chuckling a “what a pity,” before tossing a lit match into a trash can of memories. I laugh at how my daydreams paint me until I realize I’ve been running to slow jazz. my heartbeat never soothes its gallop—everything sounds louder in comparison. my voice cracks when I ask my therapist, “if I’ve broken into a new side of myself, is this how I’m always going to feel?” craft scissors into electrical wire. a hot pink buzzsaw. I miss the days of feeling my heart soak through my shirt as if pulpy grapefruit; how swooned I could be by the sky. I know it’s not gone, not entirely, but I’m tired of picking needles from my teeth. I miss a gentler touch.
