my empty heart is craving love. and i don’t mean to simply fuck or lust or have carnal desire. i want love in its basest sense. i want conversations late into the night and the comfort of acceptance regardless of time or place or what i have done in the past. i want someone i can call at any time, night or day without feeling the slightest need to hesitate before i pick up the phone and...

I wonder if I set my heart on impossibilities so that I know with a certainty I won’t succeed. It’s a hurt less painful than the other option.

Why do we write?
We write because there is an intangible, ever-present yearning that burns within us. We write because we are the bearers of a hundred thousand stories, real even when unreal. Because within fiction, we find truth. We write because we suffocate under this caul of silence. We were conceived with an indecipherable sigh of pleasure, born into this world with a cry of terror. Yet even this cry is a...

I sat on the roof and watched the clouds roll in, smothering the bright lights of San Francisco.
We are no more than the embers of a cigarette. Pulled into life, and fighting to flare brighter before growing weak again. Each drag another attempt to burn and scream to the world, “I AM HERE” before you fade away into nothing but ash.

Lamenting The Friend Zone, Or: The “Nice Guy”...
fozmeadows:
Everyone’s heard of friendzoning – even if they don’t know the word, they sure as hell know the concept. It’s what happens time and again to unfortunate Nice Guys who, despite being nothing but sugar and spice to the girls they love, are nonetheless denied the sexual relationships they so obviously deserve and are instead treated like platonic equals – a terrible, unfair fate spawned...

In class, we had to write about a childhood space. Deluge of memories, and as I sit here in the front row, the smell of someone like a character from my childhood flooding my body with nostalgia.

Sex Without Love by Sharon Olds
How do they do it, the ones who make love without love? Beautiful as dancers, gliding over each other like ice-skaters over the ice, fingers hooked inside each other’s bodies, faces red as steak, wine, wet as the children at birth whose mothers are going to give them away. How do they come to the come to the come to the God come to the still waters, and not love the one who came there with...

Life is beautiful & I feel like I can’t help smiling. But my body is tired, my mind is tired, I’m screaming for a break.

things that make me happy
When my friends video chat with me just so I can (poorly) hum a song that I know no words to to try and help me figure it out.
