How do I explain

That your fear of hurting me

Is what caused me to hurt

[lesbian-munkustrap]

I would trust Munkustrap with my cat, my worldly possessions, and my life. That’s a 100% Good Guy right there. Not a single malicious bone in his body. Nothing but green flags. His loving parental energy is off the charts. He has never done anything wrong in his life. When they say ‘hashtag not all men’ I’m like ur right, Munkustrap would NEVER.

Mostly, I want to be kind.

Me @ Bluza: why did you rip out my heart and tear it to shreds and please can you do it again

[usefulquotes7]

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

Love looking at one of my own posts and seeing the "some replies may have been blocked, hidden, or removed" alert, because I genuinely never remember why that might be. Did someone say something rude that I deleted? Did they delete their own comment? Did a commenting account get blocked by me later for unrelated reasons? Did Tumblr itself take them down?? I will never know.

My knees buckle,

My mind, it bends

My mouth stumbles

Over the words it borrows

From others with less sorrows

You're alone, but in the company of millenia of thinking.

Everything seems to be at peace at night when you are in the company of your own thoughts.
