“ You know, you can reply to my emails any time. I'm okay now -- after a year of this, I'm done waiting and hurting. I've given up, to be honest. I deserve more. If you can give me a decent explanation if you ever do decide to reply to me, I'd appreciate it and maybe we can try talking again. But you know what? I'm okay. I'm okay without you, and without the pain for waiting for someone you care about to notice your absence. I'm done. Take care. You were wonderful. ”
( i have resigned myself to never knowying why, finally. )

The past is fixed, set permanently to stone,
No matter how long you spend wishing things could be different,
they never will be.

The starting point of
ALL ACHIEVEMENTS IS DESIRE. KEEP THIS CONSTANTLY IN MIND. WEAK
desires bring weak
RESULTS, JUST AS A SMALL FIRE MAKES A SMALL AMOUNT OF HEAT.

Stop worrying. Stop getting angry at things
that aren't worth the energy you put into staying angry. Take a shower. Take five showers. Hell, take ten showes if you want to. Stay in bed all day and do 'nothing'. Watch sh*tty romantic movies and cry your heart out. Stay outside all day. Wake up in the morning with the determination to fall in love with your city all over again. Find quiet cafes and independent bookstores that you've never come across before. Pretend you're a tourist and take photographs. Stay out all night. Do things. Take care of yourself.

Drabble #36 – What worlds she did not break.
Hearken this grove of secrets pulled by the tide, the shore grasps to keep. I’ve glimpsed the shadow of doubt across your face so here, take these words I couldn’t form so they decayed on my tongue and inlayed them gravestones, but we call them teeth. Here, listen to the ripple of my heart being pulled out to sea. Here, listen to the ocean; it will translate my soul better than I. Here, pluck these heartstrings, make a melody of my love and remember it. I coveted the shore and its inability to stop loving the tide, reminiscent of cold hands on my ribs. We swish salt water in our mouths to heal the cuts, don’t you see? It’s love, dissolved in a glass, magical, healing.

Drabble #38 – Whirlpool
Smother the bird of my heart and make a wreath of the feathers. Hang it from your door. Let me at least be a trophy in your cabinet. I’ll bleed into the walls; into the plaster so that I’m all you see in the corner of your eye. I taped needles to my skin in hopes that you would understand how I felt when you touched me. Notice the pearls around my neck, each a sliver of happiness, painstakingly strung one by one. You’ve pressed the fragments of these into my palms, ran them over with alcohol to sterilize the feelings out of them. Maybe they’ll fade, or disintegrate. I’ll never know if they do.

~ There are times ~ where it appears you want to say something more, but you hold back. It alludes to this hidden part of you that I’ve never really known, a shadowy closet tucked back from sight, where you do not smile, do not laugh.

Dialogue Practice #1
“Do you remember those trampolines everyone had when we were younger?”
“Yeah, mines all grown over now. Hard to imagine all we cared about then were toys. I can distinctly recall my mom handing me this Disney princess ball like she was giving me the world.”
“Maybe she was.”
“No... No, she gave me my childhood, and left me to carry it on my own.”

Drabble #40 – Where the asphalt flowers grow.
You live in the cracks of rock on spray-painted concrete in Hong Kong. You live in the bikes and cars riding in the early morning rush hour of New York City. You live in the gold flecked domes on top of painted beauty in the churches of Moscow. You live in the purple tulips blooming in the shade of the Eiffel Tower. You are a fleeting whisper of something special in my 3am thoughts. You are here, and now. You are everywhere. You are the world, my world. That’s where you live. You are the cuts of inspiration I get in the spaces between seconds. You live in those spaces.

Drabble #41 – Sleeping Pill
It’s 4am, and a voice is murmuring against my ear like sin, like sleeping pills. I do not say anything, because you’re picking at the threads of another conversation I don’t want to have, but we don’t mention that. You’re so afraid of silence, afraid of the thoughts that lurk there and the off-chance that I might get the courage to say them. “Go to sleep,” you whisper, a smile ghosting around your lips, as if were that simple. Can’t, I almost whisper back, you’re all I see when I close my eyes. Almost.
“Scared of the dark?”
Something like that.

You go to work the next day pretending nothing happened.
Your co-workers ask
if everything's okay
and you tell them you're just tired.
And you're trying to smile. And they're trying to smile.

Drabble #43 – Fingers drumming down your skin (shaking up your heart)
Hey, your heart has its eyes closed. Should I make a ruckus? I bet you want someone on the straight path to success but I’ll be crooked. Tortured me poised, I’ll show you your crimes, I’ll mix you up. Push me hard into the sunset; you’ll only burn and I’ll glitter across the horizon. But why are you being distant? You’re a bit blue these days. Come, tie your shoelaces and run with me. How does it feel to live for yourself? The diamonds shaking across your skin, they’re free to shimmer through your hair and trace the patterns plotted on your skin.

This city cracks the egg
Over a bright blue pan,
And bursts the yolk to bleed
Golden across your skies.
This city can love you good and kind
If you just give it your lips,
And let it kiss you full and well—
But do not wince when the love goes down
A little too hard; a little too warm.
This city sleeps with one eye open,
And you should too—
Count the hearts it breaks,
The suns that might not rise.
This city is an ode
To insurmountable invisible walls
That tough it through the winter,
But shake at the tremble in your hands.
This city cuts across the land
Like a scar the world is ashamed of—
Ripping open and pouring out
All of the asphalt in your heart.
This city is unforgiving.
It lashes out in rainbow tones
And bruise-purpled hands.
Again and again and again.
