TW: brief mention of SA and physical assault

like a good dog?

so you’d mistake,
a grimace for a smile?

holding back tears in the parking lot of the community college because my mom called to tell me that my sister told college recruiters i was her hero.
taking the years of abuse for her wasn’t for nothing :’)
i wish i still had michael. right now he would let me talk about the weight of the world that is currently squeezing the life out of my very lungs- until i physically could no longer keep my eyes open and it turned some ungodly hour of the night. he would hear my deepest darkest fears, he would hear how i have to face them to make the right decision, he wouldn’t make me do it alone like i currently have to. he would stand outside in the rain, or pick me up a pint of ice cream from three hours away, or just take me on a drive into utter oblivion. he would let me lay my head on his lap in the backseat of his car, or he’d help me grab a blanket to go stare at the stars, and he wouldn’t complain about how my tears are soaking into his clothes yet again when he finally coaxed me to talk about it all.
he would stand by me until i felt like i could stand on my own again.
i hate this. i cant do this on my own. i don’t have anyone who could let me talk this out in the way that i need to. i don’t even know what i would say, but with him the words would just tumble straight from my heart right out of my mouth.
i need that safe space, i don’t know how to ask someone to do that- i don’t even know if you could.
the days repeat over and over and over and over and over and over and over and when and over and over and when will this end and over and over and stop please and over and over

i fear humans like a street dog. rejection after rejection, hurt after hurt, it all gets too much for my already crowded mind.
dez told me to try to put myself out there again in some way or another. and i have, i am trying. not very hard granted; i still am in this safe haven of social isolation and overworking myself in school.
but i have found someone that has proven that strangers can be kind, pure even, and is trying to steer my western brain back towards the light of the east again. he will never know the true weight of the words he writes with, and how i await responses with my tail thwapping against my bed. teeth smiling, not bared.
