Hey
Icarian Love
Oh to be Icarus,
To fly so close to that warm embrace
And hot oh so scalding it is
To find comfort in that heat
And before it all goes cold
For a moment you are the sun
Or another day star
Burning across the sky for moments
Before it all turns cold
To have that comfortable embrace
To almost touch the sun and sky
Finger and wing tips warm as for a moment
You are a retiring Phoenix
And you fall to the depths below, a comet,
And then it all goes cold
The splash of water cool on your skin
You loved the sun almost kissed him
And you fell to the daunting sea below
The sun's uncle is colder and crueler
You toss and turn amongst the sea's sheets
And though it is cold
there is some comfort here too
There is no longer the burn from the sun's love
Instead a duller cooler pain
That slowly takes over
It replaces the burn of the sun's kiss goodbye
And it drowns you in it's affection
O to be Icarus
Loved by the sun and the sea
One burning hot and bright
One is freedom and scalding comfort
The other cool and dull
It is recovery and pacifying
It's swells quell the pain of flaming love
It provides comfort as you drown in it
Both overwhelm you
Both pain and comfort
Both are love
Both are lost
You are lost in both
And you lose yourself
In the freedom of wings
And the waves of ocean
But for a moment you are free
Flying close to the sun or to the sea
O Icarus
Did it hurt to fall in love with the light?
Or did it only hurt when it burned?
When it cut off your wings and you fell again?
Did it hurt to fall in love with the brine?
When it carried you under?
When it softened the burn?
Did it only hurt when you couldn't leave?
When you were drowning in the billows?
Did it hurt to love the light and freedom?
Or did it hurt to love the brine and comfort?
O Icarus
Why did love hurt?

Please reblog
Australia is likely implementing a ban on social media for children under 16 years. It will be by ID that they’ll track underaged users. This is a massive privacy violation and could result in people being put in unsafe situations.
This is the Australian KOSA.
Share and raise awareness please.

Unsent love laments 1-
10-14-24-- I'm screwed, I'm oh so oh so screwed. I was hoping I could deny the fact I was falling right in. I knew it was a trap. But it's been a year now that I've known you and less than that since I first realized I might've fallen. But despite the fact I know you could fall back now, I know you won't. You've fallen for another. And so have I, I think I have, because I care for her and I couldn't bear to lose her. But you, you live in my mind and I mourn your loss despite still getting to see you daily. Because now I could never tell you I had fallen like I planned to. Now, despite you saying you'd be interested if I was a guy and that not having to be true, we're both caught up in our own fallen states. Mine for two, one of them you, yours for one and it's not me. All the things that you've overcome for her make me wish it could've been for me because I would've overcame it for you. I would've suffered and dealt with bullshit for you. Because I fell and I'm still falling, I fell hard and I don't know when I'll get back up. I just wish I could've tripped you too. I can't even say the true word to describe my feelings because it feels too real. And you feel it for her. I gave you space and watched you fall for others idly, planning to act someday but now I worry I'll never get the chance. So I'm sorry if you never know, I wish I could tell you, but I don't want this to hurt more than it does. Because it would ruin what we have now, you're my best friend that I fell too hard for, and I don't want to lose you. That would destroy me. So I'll mourn what I never had and I never will have. I'm sorry for falling and I'm sorry for saying nothing please don't apologize.
#i fear this might become repetive#guys im not okkkkk#im confused and aaaaaa#just wrote this and wanted to put it somewhere... so uh enjoy?#sorry#anywayyyyysssssss#my queer ass is fineeeeeee

just found out that stoats hunt twice the size of them like rabbits by aggressively and eccentrically dancing around it with their little slinky rigatoni bodies so it can confuse the absolute fuck out of its prey until it can get close enough to jump on its back like some shadow of the colossus shit and take it down

Queer and trans youth will save the world. Queer and trans youth’s ideas, stories, and love of the world and each other will change the world.
The future will be more queer, and they deserve every good thing this day has to offer, and so much better.

The one in the mirror
The girl in the mirror
She just cut her hair short
In a fit of manic rage
The boy in the mirror
He just talked himself down
From the roof of his parents’ house
The person in the mirror
They’ve just cried
Until they ran out of tears
The one in the mirror
It stares back
And the only think I hear in response is,
“maybe you’re pretty the way you are.”
I uhh
real are you okay dear?
