Never felt more seen.
"Dark academic?" More like "someone please help me holy shit I can't continue living like this and the only thing keeping me from falling off my rocker is literature."
The kind of love...
I've never felt love like yours
The kind that
heals my inner child who made wrong choices in love and,
overpowers my insecurities with constant reassurance.
When you hold my ragged heart in your hands,
salving what's left of it,
I know it has never seen a safer place.
I've never felt the love I've for you
The kind that
wants you to be happy more than wanting you to be mine and,
has me wishing something for you on every fallen eyelash.
When I sit to pray and ask for your happiness along with others,
instead of our future,
I know the love I've for you is beyond just us.
I've never been in love like ours
The kind that
is better than the ones in movies and,
no amount of lyrics can contain.
When we feel the world stop when our foreheads touch and,
time slow when your lips meet mine.
I know I'm learning what love is.

How will you remember me ?
Will you remember me
By the times I told you I loved you or by the times that I showed you the same?
Cause if it's former geez I'm sorry, I hope you reminisce the latter.
Will you remember me
When you see my favorite flower or by the scent of my favorite perfume?
If it's the former I left you a plant and the latter in a box among your clothes.
Will you remember me
By the silly fights i picked or by the number of times I apologized?
If it's former or the latter, maybe you should remember me by something else.
Will you remember me
By my imperfections, will you remember all of my flaws?
I hope it's both former and latter, cause those are the parts of me that loved you the most.
Will you remember me
When you play our videos or will you hear my voice as you read this?
If it's former you better save it forever, if it's later I wish it never fades.
Will you remember me
After a year, will you remember us after a decade?
I tried to leave back pieces of me, because I'm scared of you forgetting the latter.
july 15 // incinerate
Is the moon envious of the sun?
And it's radiance that cannot be outdone?
Is that why she hides behind the earth?
Calls it an eclipse but, doubting her worth.
What does she see when she looks into the lake?
Her molten silver face or the distortion that ripples make?
Is this why poets always write about her desolate beauty?
Because she's more like us than any character from a movie.
A celestial body far far away
Like all our insecurities in display
How many times have we envied others radiance,
And hid away from an audience?
Doubting our worth, causing self-esteem distortion
By looking at a person's life only in portion?
So like her, we go through phases
And like her, we grow through phases.
when stephen chbosky wrote "we accept the love we think we deserve" and hanya yanagihara wrote "x = x, he thinks. x = x, x = x."
It's been a few minutes,
My head on your shoulder, your arm around me
Neither of us utters a word.
What are you thinking?
You ask, breaking the silence.
I'm thinking,
About the day we finally accepted how we felt,
And then the world tilted, the hourglass turned,
How every day we're slipping away, gradually
One sand grain at a time.
I'm thinking,
How unfortunate it is that our fate's already written
That we were to be like parallel lines
Destined to be together
But not with each other.
I'm thinking,
How long are we going to take it, one day at a time?
One call, one heart emoji, one I miss you at a time.
Like a recovering addict,
Each day takes us twelve steps away from each other.
I'm thinking,
How the time we are together is snowglobe moments.
How we are confined to only a moment in time.
While the world around us moves on and on.
And we relive one perfect yet fragile moment.
I'm thinking,
How we belong to each other today,
For now.
How wonderful it'll be if the world ends today.
While you are mine and I'm yours.
So I don't have to see tomorrow.
When the hourglass is finally empty
When either of the parallel lines ends.
When we are so apart that we stand out of sight
When the snow globe falls to the floor, waking us up.
Instead,
I try to come back to that second,
To your voice, eyes, and presence,
Instead, I say,
I'm thinking about getting ice cream.

Doesn't a word look weird when we stare at it long enough? Doesn't the alphabet look slightly meaningless when we write it over and over again? Here's one: CLING C-LING, C-L-ING, C-L-I-NG, C-L-I-N-G. Does this make sense? It doesn't sound like a word the more you say it. It doesn't look like a word the more you write it. The curves and strokes, dots and dash!
Isn't it how the name of the people you love changes? At some point, it stops being a name, a word that belongs to them. It becomes a feeling that belongs to you. It stops sounding like a word or a random string of letters. It becomes a string of feelings you cling to when life falls apart. Their name on your phone screen stops looking like a word. Every notification and phone call conjures an image of them looking at you and smiling before you can even look at it twice. That particular string of curves and strokes, dots and dash Once belonged to them and is now beloved by you Which you randomly write in the air because it gives you comfort.
Sometimes we take names for granted without realizing the power it holds. When all it takes is that one word to appear on your screen to get you through another tiring day.
