Get out of bed, make a hot drink and go outside. You owe yourself that much. Maybe you still cry in far too many public bathrooms, but I swear, you stay a few seconds less every time. Smile at strangers if it’s all you can do, know that life doesn’t start when the sun rises or the credits roll but when you decide it’s time to go after what you deserve, and you deserve everything because we are alive both only once and a million times every day and every minute is something new to learn and someone new to love, and if it all crashes and burns as it so often does cling on to hope through it all and don’t ever ever ever let it go. Start your life again whenever you need to. Repeat after me: it is not yet the end. It is not yet the end. It is not yet the end.

You think ‘Okay, I get it, I’m prepared for the worst’, but you hold out that small hope, see, and that’s what fucks you up. That’s what kills you.

I don’t love you loud or monstrously. I don’t love you like a hurricane loves a city or a bullet loves flesh. I don’t love you like the writer in me wants to love you. I don’t love you in a way that makes good television. I don’t love you as if you were cursed and broken and imploding, as if you were a grenade waiting for my words of regret and grief. I don’t love you like I’m waiting for you to explode and burn every part of me that wanted to believe what little we had was immortal. I don’t love you so my heart can bleed all over my fingertips and I can call the stains art. I don’t love you so I can one day hate you. I love you and there is no explosion. I love you and instead, there is quiet. (I love you in the way that creates, not destroys)

in the beginning, there was you, me and the light; g.p. (via pretentieuxtitre)

If words could bind you, I would say whatever it took to make you stay, and maybe then this poem would keep you. Hold you hostage in the trenches of my selfish desire. I would slip love notes like stones into your pocket to anchor you to this moment, this riverbed of lonely. It kills the animal in me to see the silhouette of your body against the light of dawn, leaving. The moon is a snapping coyote that wants to steal you away from me but if I can keep it at bay, if I can muzzle its snout, if I can bear the burden of night on my back, then maybe you’ll still be here when I wake up. But darkness keeps pummeling my windows with its heavy fists; baby, I think we’re running out of time now.   The sky is falling, the sky is falling, I cannot keep the night from coming in.

it is hard to keep a tender heart, but you must stay soft. do not let the brightness fade from your eyes. be brave, leave your throat exposed, kiss your wounds and bathe them in light. live with your palms outstretched and your wrists bare. let them see your veins, show them where your blood runs. dig your feet into the dirt, keep the moon on your tongue. you are delicate, you are fragile, you are not weak. you are so full of sweetness.
