Something in me is changing. I'm still full of rage, seething and overflowing as always, but there is also a strange sense of transformation in me. Like maybe everything will really end up alright. Like maybe I'm getting closer to the end of the tunnel and the early morning sunlight is waiting to kiss my skin again. I want to do things. I want to make this life worth living. When I go out tomorrow, I will do something that makes me happy. When I come home, I will clean my room, and help my mom and dad with something too.

– 8th November, an excerpt from my diary

I’m attracted to safety. Coming home to the most beautiful person you've ever seen and you know however bad everything outside maybe, your person will be there to support you, no matter what. You know your feelings are safe as you lay your head on her lap. She listens to your vents and your sighs, all the while holding you gently in her soft, warm arms, stroking your hair. And you get to protect her just the same. There is no judgement, there is no danger, there is only love. Safety. That’s all I want. The romance of safety in my lover's arms.

The sky is a perfect clear white–blue backdrop, but there is water on these rocks that we carelessly step on. My footing is not stable, and my knees wobble above bruised feet that don't really feel like mine. I'm only following you to be nice (and there was nothing else I was taught).

This road is not for me and I have half-cracked kneecaps, but I follow anyway. I need to be nice, and polite. I flash you my wounds a bit but they're only pink, and not that "deep". So, I should be fine.

Yeah, I should try to be fine. If I'm not good at taking your hand, I'll need to find a better way to make a stand.

I wouldn't take up anyone's space or time, though I'd let you take mine. I entertain people without faces that I don't even like. Everyday, by being kind, I lose more of my pride.

Should I take a stand? It will inevitably end in a blood bath. Should I care? I know they built me to do just that. But these tsunamis brewing inside tell me otherwise.

With every false smile, the storms and the organs grow in size. If we are not careful, this stone path will flood high, and like a washed-up whale, I might accidentally swallow everyone on this joyless little hike.

October thoughts and questions spiral

my favourite word in English is ‘inappropriate’. what does that say about me? 

yin and yang. I've had a good share of misfortune in my life. think it's high time for the fortunes to fly in (please?) 

should I colour my hair red, or pink? (which suits my cinnamon skin?) … or should I keep it natural and let it grow out this time? 

the morning light is bewitching on my skin + wish there was someone to share it with

do I love enough? I don't feel like I do. 

I want to change my name and —

the universe is too big for any of this to matter anyway

how can I move on if I don't get my revenge?  

my horoscope says I'm destined for great things, but I'm 25 and I feel like I've done nothing (though I've done a bit over the years) 

I miss academia, does academia miss me? (sorry I'm trouble) 

need chocolate cake, but I promised myself to stop eating sugar 

it's my dad's birthday and I'm secretly sad. it's scary to see him get older. life needs to be longer!

got so much pent up aggression that sometimes the bloodthirst shines through every word I write. that is my happy writing. but sometimes it's just this peaceful melancholy. that's depression.

there is something familiar in your eyes. is it the chocolate or the wine or that ocean-like hunger? or is it a mirror for the deer who fears the light in the water? do you peer through the window to feel pretty in the evening? have you started loving the sun yet? do you want to start a fight? I wouldn't mind one either. this girl grew up suckling on blunt knives, I would be a match for you. or I could shield yours, and you could, maybe, shield mine? your eyes tell me I'm beautiful and I got that pretty wine in mine. I think you are beautiful and I could love that pretty wine in yours.

I earnestly seek your support for my family in Gaza. This fundraiser stands as our beacon of hope, our lifeline amidst the depths of despair. With profound sorrow, I implore your generosity as we endure this unimaginable ordeal. Your contribution can mean the difference between survival and oblivion for my family, and for this, we are eternally grateful. Please, help us to rebuild our life and pursue my PhD study as as there is no guarantee of safety here. kindly read my story, donate if you can, share if you could not.

"have you learned how to drive yet" i have the spirit of friendship in my heart. the joy of lifes little things in my soul. the whimsy of magic. the beautiful enjoyment of nature. the answer is no though

"I would never be like you," I used to tell my father, "I would never sacrifice mine for another". he never really said anything, that is what he wanted for me too. growing up watching jewels being stolen from a kind man, I worshipped villains in movies screaming for disaster, "good riddance if you're kind." I hated naivety with all my little heart.

but yesterday, I let someone steal from me. I gave it purposely. and I realized that for a few years now, as the adult that I am now, I have been giving. without expectations. shutting down my brain. depriving myself to satisfy the heart. maybe my heart grew differently and maybe it secretly admired my father. I realized I have become him without knowing. I can't help it now, but I hope that if I ever have a child, they wouldn't.

my feelings, always too big for my tiny self, and my words, which are only true and brave, are just my two standout qualities. my bulbous heart that is bursting and bleeding purple through my ribs a little more every second is all that I am. when I speak, I spill a mess that I'm never able to clean. but it is strong and bright, so I always smile with my eyes without moving my body. I say, "I love you" to everyone I love. I'm a honey badger, yes.

until I look into her eyes. I can't find my tongue and my words have turned to dust. they are going up in smoke; an effect of her light. I blink and blink. and look away. and stutter. and take my steps backward. my face burning orange with my shame. monsters come climbing up my legs and coil around me, breaking my lungs. they won't even swallow me down.

I can only laugh about it days later. how are we all the opposites of ourselves in front of the girls that we love? the lions, the tigers and the honey badgers, we all become mice when we face the sun.

I've followed you for almost a year I suppose and as a writer I've always admired you and as a woman I've come to love you, i honestly don't know why I'm writing this because it doesn't make any sense. Just know that you're a beautiful author and I hope you find success in whatever field you wish to pursue

these are beautiful beautiful words and now I have a huge smile on my face and I can't stop! I can't believe how incredibly sweet and kind you are!

a year is a long time and it makes my heart so full to think you've been here with me that long! thank you sm for making my day! ♡♡
