All my friends are on t.v
Not to sound to conceited
They don’t know my name
They don’t know me by face
But we’re as close as blood clots
Under the skin of aging hands
And as tight as 4c coiled hair curls
I have never fit in totally ever
Different aspects of myself connected
With entire peoples characters
I never had the chance to 100% me
At all
But my friends on tv they are exactly like me
I can relate to them and them to me
They bring me on adventures
Take me out drinking past my curfew
And invite me in the room when they make love
They are my closet friends,
All from different groups and channels
And I like it that way
Because they can never let me down
They can never get tired of me or use me
I accept them and in return they let me in
In a way no one has ever done
And isn’t that what friends are for?
“There are days when I look at you and I don’t see the boy I fell in love with. The boy who used to put in effort just to see me smile, the boy whose day wasn’t complete until he heard about mine, the boy who used to hold my hand because he knew i was scared of the dark, the boy who would write letters to me unexpectedly. I don’t see the boy I fell in love with, just another boy who tells me he loves me.”

“My depression has ruined so many more things than just my mind. All of my relationships and friendships broke apart only when my sadness spoke to them.”

“i walk into the world with a smile to show it’s my greatest mask always hiding behind a laugh but when the conversation turns too close to home i end up empty, hollow afraid that people will know how i feel and who i am”

Yesterday my therapist used “triggered” in an actual medical context and for a second I honestly thought she was making fun of me before I remembered that it was still a word like. Actual doctors use and not just something shitty people say
I feel so fucking lost, out of place, as if i do not belong.. i want to run away.
