There were once stickers here

ripped off, without mercy,

there were once crayon marks

painted over; off white.

There was once a nail-hole,

(Life Hack: Fill In Those Pesky Nail Holes With a Dab of White Toothpaste)

and that painting is in a box,

in a truck, going somewhere.

The scuff-marks from the dining chairs

might cost us our deposit,

but we can use a tennis ball to scrub at dinners past.

The dust that settled behind the books

are easily wiped away,

the drawer liner for the forks

peeled, folded, discarded.

The hundred-something trinkets that decorated the walls

rattle in a biscuit tin, damn screaming poltergeist,

and finally we threw away all those paper bags

saved for gifts we never gave, this house that never was.

"This was not a home," we say. "There lived no-one here."

For old times sake is actually such a heartbreaking and beautiful sentiment. Like, let’s do it for the love that used to be here. It is reason enough.

In Stars and Disco

(Disco side of the swap)

#in stars and time #ISAT #Odile #Siffrin #Isabeau #Mirabelle #Bonnie #disco elysium #The origins of this crossover came from my playthrough journal in which I wrote down “I think Siffrin should play disco elysium”#Something about failing forwards in general - but some scenes would *shatter* them. Maybe in a good way.#I think they would get to the first dream and need a few months before picking it back up again.#I am not sure if the developer of ISAT has played dDisco Elysium but Odile & Siffrin as a duo have strong HBD & Kim vibes.#Which I am so here for. Accidently or purposefully - it scratches an itch I never thought I would get scratched again.#Both are really good games with gutpunching writing and I want to spread the word. I am doing my part!#Yeah I put Bonnie as Cuno. I know exactly what I'm doing.#Isa is Titus - hard to tell because I gave up on drawing the hat.#This AU in any form is really fun to write comics for so I will be back.#Thanks to all the ISAT fans who have been really friendly so far! Hello hello!

this post was a game changer for me. thank you ryan reynolds

#text #LIKE. i beat myself up for a WHILE abt my reaction #But what that person did was much worse #& i did not say a single unkind word to them #& if i had a big freak-out break-down on a PRIVATE BLOG that was essentially a diary because i DIDNT KNOW THEY WERE STALKING ME ONLINE ⁉️⁉️⁉#well i was well within my right to do so. because i should not have been expected to account for their feelings right after what they did #IN MY OWN PRIVATE SPACE. !!!!!!!!! GOD.#and i kept myself in check speaking directly to them & thats all that should have been expected from me. i was allowed to say mean things a #about them in what was essentially a digitsl journal. after they LITERALLY TRAUMATIZED ME ‼️‼️‼️#Sorry Everyone im finally going back and like processing stuff from years ago due in no small part to the shelby abuse stream #so sry if im complaining abt being traumatized more than usual 😒#traumablogging

I have never lived anywhere long enough to truly root myself, and maybe I'm too much of a coward to even try.

What is a childhood friend? My companions of a decade past have vanished to the wind, and I can't find you, and maybe that's my fault for not trying, harder, earlier.

Loss, though in the grand scale nothing, has nestled into my mere existence.

Grief becomes diluted over the course of seventeen years but I still ache, still crumble under the thousands of drops pelting my skin and sinking its way into my bones. Does just a single drop of blood not swirl in the water?

Friends of days past I promised my life to, where are you now? Teachers long gone, do you remember, the year 2013, when the grass was ever-sweet and colors vibrant?

But I dare not speak this out loud.

Selfish, selfish, I have always been selfish. Greedily taking in your joy and mirth and basking in the glory of our short shared existence. Such privilege has been afforded to me and yet I lie here and weep.

If I reached my hand out to the void, will there be anyone to reach back?

i’m afraid of a lot of things, but mostly, most sincerely, i am afraid of being unravelled by you, and you finding nothing you want in here
