black out days

Have had this on repeat recently. Another that I’ve known forever but for some reason recently it just landed fully. This mix fucking goesssss

honest

We never did get to have that talk

Add it to the list of things you said to me that I have to pretend don’t matter

I swear I don’t need you

I didn’t find salvation and then shatter

My mind hasn’t fractured

Under the weight of your presence

Please ...

sticky

I’ve been wearing the same lipstick for 10 years
Wearing the same perfume for close to 20
My hair gets tied up in a bun with the same twists and turns every time 
I still chew the same flavor of gum I always have

I’ve never deleted my text messages 
I’ve save...

puppet

I’ve learned that there is power in accepting you are powerless in a situation

It’s helpful to know you are helpless

Trying to be in control makes me feel controlled

Not in the way I like

I am not the author of my story

Despite how nice the instagra...

home

The tshirt I wore the last time I saw you had been in my drawer since 
Until 2 weeks ago
I had surgery and I wore it there 
It made me feel strong 
Because you think I am 
I was wearing it the last time you hugged me 
So I let it hug me when I needed yo...

isolation

life’s a mess and so am i

a note

just wanted to say I’m sorry for being inactive on here. I have been having a really hard time and it’s been difficult to access the part of me that is okay with being seen in this way. thanks for still being here, I’m trying to feel better <3

lost

You said we lost each other in translation 
It might be the saddest thing anyone has ever said to me 
It wouldn’t be if it weren’t true 
You said things can always be retranslated 
It just doesn’t feel that way to me anymore 
I have lost my ability to...

destruction

The container I once resided in suddenly feels too vast to feel the sides and top and bottom 
I’ve realized you have broken it completely
Created space for parts of me that were hidden away 
Quieted and shunned 
It’s beyond snapping me out of something that once fe...

are we having fun yet

You don’t address me directly 
At least not in front of me 
It’s always in the third person 
It’s telling 
In a way that you telling me wouldn’t be 
So tell me 
What the fuck is the point of all this 
A point and a kill 
A sw...

goodnight

don’t

What’s the opposite of placation

Of platitudes or acquiescence

Of patronization

Appeasement

Niceties

Pacification

That is what I want

Disturb me

Make me take it

Tear me apart cell by cell

But carefully

Methodically

sacred mask

Doing my makeup is a sacred act. I started when I was 8 years old, something most people probably can’t say. Most of the dance moms did their daughters’ stage makeup before dress rehearsals and shows — I did my own. And not because my mom wasn’t there or wasn’t supportive, she was in so...

saturday blues

in the tub with you

I am in the shower at 1am 
I am laying down in the tub letting the water cascade down and hit my body and fall away 
Looking up at the tiled ceiling and walls 
It feels pitiful and beautiful 
Just like me 
I’ve lived here for 2 years and never noticed tha...

good morning

reckoning

You told me I’m dangerous 
In a moment when that was true 
But I think it’s actually because I make you feel safe 
Entertain the things about you that you hate 
Accurate mirrors can be disorienting 
When you’re used to your reflection distorted <...

wanted this one to stand on its own <3

guilty

I feel guilty for things I shouldn’t feel guilty for 
I don’t feel guilty for things I should 
I think maybe I’m a bad person 
In the body of someone good 

Damnation and salvation aren’t so different 
If they were, then why would they rhyme ...

entombed

One of my favorite Deftones songs, hard to put into more words than that.

happy monday

8.2.24

I wore my hair in a half up bun today
It’s one of the things I like most about having a shorter haircut than normal 
That doesn’t make sense without more context
I don’t feel like explaining
I wondered what the point was today 
Felt tired 
The kind you fe...

sabrina (i am a party)

This has been one of my top songs of the past few years. Fred again is altogether amazing but this one is on a different level for me. I recommend listening to the song but also checking out the full piece that the song was sampled from. It’s gorgeous, and uncomfortable to watch. I’m linking ...

absolutes

I don’t like to speak in absolutes 
But I absolutely cannot speak 
I know nothing at all 
It’s been proven to me over and over 
And I lied 
I love to speak in absolutes 
Hiding behind hyperbole 
It entertains me 
Like the way you...

patterns

You’re in the place we re-fell in love 
I don’t know how to feel about that 
I never fell out 
I don’t know how to feel about that either 
Patterns in the sky 
Water the color of my eyes 
Hours disappeared 
We probably looked so weird&...
