Tell me about the girl

my mother was,

before she traded in

all her girl

to be my mother.

What did she smell like?

How many friends did she have,

before she had no room?

Before I took up so much

space in her prayers,

who did she pray for?

speak to me of my mother, who was she - jasmine mans

i had a dream about you // alucinatio by alexmeg

“He stares at the ceiling, blinking blankly every now and then, until his eyes close and he falls asleep.”

hey so what the fuck

bonus

caption translation: “you’re an angst enjoyer”

video translation: “that feeling like where it hurts so much but it feels good, you know that feeling when “aww im so sad cuz they didnt end up together😞” but its also satisfying in a way that they didnt end up together😁”

i have one friend who calls me, out of the blue, no warning. and some people say 'could this have been a text' but no, it couldn't have, i needed to hear the catch in your voice when you say 'i'm sorry for calling but i'm so fucking tired' and you needed to hear the way my voice strives for gentleness as i tell you 'i'm sorry lovely, i know shit's tough right now' and it's always tough, you have two kids and a job and your dog is dying but it won't always be like this. you'll call instead at three pm on a Thursday, so you can say 'me and the toddler are at the park by the swings and did you want to come and meet us?' and i will always say yes. i hope that i will always be there to answer the phone. i hope that you never stop calling me when you're driving home and you need to cry because you don't want to do bathtime with your five year old while you're crying. i hope that you call me to tell me about the conversation you had with your husband, and how much you love him, and to say 'what are you doing tomorrow, do you have time to come over while my daughter is napping? it feels like it's been a while.'

i do want to come over. keep calling me. i'll keep answering.

What I like a lot about judaism is... It can wait. It can wait. Especially on shabbos it's just... You can wait. Life can wait a bit.

And that's really nice in a world that moves at a breakneck speed, demands you move with or be left behind. I've always been left behind because it's hard to keep up, but I find that I can actually just... Let things happen when it comes to judaism. You think a people, a religion that's thousands of years old doesn't have time for you, or wouldn't be willing to wait for you? I doubt that you'll be left behind, truly.

Don't care that dorky cornballs hate rap because I truly believe it's difficult to get into any genre of music you didn't get a taste of during adolescence unless you're one of those weirdo freaks who listen to new music their entire lives. Yeah there's a racist element to it but overall I think people who actively listen to music outside of pop but say they don't like rap are telling the truth, the musical components associated with hip hop (I'm not talking about lyrics) are largely unpleasant to their ears. I feel the same way about classic rock.

Like I can show a Hamilton stan Story 2 by clipping. - a queer Be Gay, Did Crimes song where a man took his ass to therapy - and I still don't think they would like it. Appreciate it maybe, but not like it.

Mermaids Paradise

[namedvesta]

Your eyes on me one more time once again half a smile to the moon half a smile to myself cause I'm not allowed to say it I love with no right to say it I confessed to the moon I whisper to myself: Look away, and I'll keep my mouth shut Look away, because I can’t bear the incision of your gaze on me Nor these bluish rings, spinning round a bottomless pit into which I'm about to sink, head first You wait for it You watch harder You won't miss a moment of my first free fall 𝑃𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒. Look away Look at the moon See me through it
