If I could blow up your notifications
everyday, I would.
If I could hold you close to me, I would.
If I could hear your heartbeat in a silent room, I would.
If I could trust myself with you, I would.
If I could run your fingers through your hair, I would.
If I could be the one wearing your glasses, I would.
If I could be the one to make you laugh, I would.
And if I could be the one holding your hand, I would.
But I can't. And I don't know why.

the sun blinds my eyes, rips through the fibres with the force of an angry star. it burns into my brain, tears through my perception and scars my memories, drenching them in sunlight - making the past look golden and oh so desirable.
it also dulls my senses, forces the future to forever compete with days that once were and people long gone. i avoid sunny days, and i do not look up.

format-br0kenwings LEAVE THIS HERE PLEASE.
I AM A CREATURE
OF GRIEF AND DUST
& BITTER LONGINGS.
THERE IS AN EMPTY
PLACE WITHIN ME
WHERE MY HEART
WAS ONCE.

My lungs feel heavy, weighed down by the bitter scent of almonds and I swear, I swear, I can feel them start to stain - just like the walls, colour starts to creep along my innards in shades of blue. It burns, it fu.cking burns so bad but there's nothing to do but wait. I do so for what feels like hours, my lungs melting like a hot knife into butter, but nothing. Nothing at all. My arms ache and blister but still I'm gasping shallowly, like a baby taking its first breath. This is my first breath, after spending so long suffocating, after so long struggling and pining and feeling jealous over anyone who had the privilege to breathe. It hurts, it hurts a lot, and I don't understand how everyone else around me can breathe so easily, like it's second-nature, while I struggle with something meant to be so basic. For so many years I've wanted to breathe like that, like everyone else. And here I am - gasping, phlegm in my mouth - wishing I was doing anything but.
