My soul has starved
these many days
since last I tasted
the one I crave

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Tumblr media
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Quote
I'm safe enough to process Safe enough to hurt Little did I know How comfortable the before was The emotionlessness How comforting it was To push these uneasy thoughts away Down and back And even though I know now I know it's better this way I wish I could just keep it all packed away

Love is NOT the most important thing.
Being with whom you are the best version of yourself is.

Call me a coward
But most days I yearn for the cloud of death to engulf me
Swallow me
Embrace me.

Daydreaming.
This is a poem I wrote way back in early 2017, when I was just starting to write poetry and was too embarrassed to sign my full name. I only signed them O.T back then. I’ve redone it into a spoken word.
Music by Blank & Jones.
Happy Valentine’s Day. ❤️

i have spent most of my life out in the cold so i’m sorry that sometimes when you touch me, the warmth in your hands feels like burn marks.
-it’s really not you, it’s me. i don’t know how to come in from the cold

Time is a heartless thief leaving gaping holes in my memory
as it takes you away from me.
The sound of your voice is already gone,
as is the light in your laughter,
but sometimes
I still manage to feel your touch
if I fall into the embrace of the others just right,
and for a moment ... it is everything,
even though
it heals
absolutely nothing.
-Samuel Decker Thompson

Closing a Chapter
Sometimes it’s easier to move on,
When the other person does it first.
I needed that closure,
I needed to know that the chapter is definitely closed.
 I had no more tears left to cry,
I’ve done most of that in three years,
And I was always met with unemphatic eyes.
 You can’t force someone to love you, or have them
see you the way you see them
 It hurts to be rejected
To feel unwanted,
And most importantly to have you worth
Feel depleted.
 But after all these years,
I feel unapologetically free.

Just because you gave it your all to the wrong person doesn’t make you stupid. It just shows how much you’re able to love someone even if they hurt you.
Tumblr media
You’re able to love someone and look past the pain they cause you, and that’s how much you’re able to Love
and that is a wonderful thing. Not everybody can do that
You’re so selfless that you’re able to love someone who hurts you so deeply and so profoundly and you think that makes you weak but it doesn’t
It actually makes you stronger
It actually makes you who you are today
