Because

Because I still haven’t learned how

to tell the whole truth yet.

Because I still can’t speak when

certain people are watching.

Because I have a lot of questions

but give a lot of answers.

Because I can’t breathe.

Because I am always in love and

never brave with it.

Because my mouth isn’t a kingdom.

Has never been a kingdom.

Could never be a kingdom.

Do you even know? The difference

between being soft and

being suffocated?

Because I don’t.

Because I wrap my hand

around the fist.

Because I put the blanket over

the fire.

Because I kiss the wound and

wear it like lipstick.

Don’t leave me behind. Don’t

forget about me. Don’t hold

it against me.

Because I’m still young.

Because I have time.

Because I’m still young.

Because I have time.

Because saying that doesn’t feel

as free as it used to.

in the water she hears a whisper of everyone who had ever left her

the river is clear just like the words she hears

'you’re the only one who will catch your tears, so bottle and save them, use them to grow.'

beauty morning

There is something unspeakably comforting in watching the most intimate pieces of yourself drift and descend into the waves, succumbing to the blue unknown. You know in your heart that the place they are going is even more beautiful than where you currently stand. You want to laugh and you want to cry all at once, because it means that all your earthly pain was for a purpose. And you need have no fear.

'...He remembers what her hair tastes like when she leaves.'

'You’ll meet her, she’s very pretty, even though sometimes she’s sad for many days at a time. You’ll see, when she smiles, you’ll love her.'

-- Pan’s Labyrinth, Dir. Guillermo del Toro

"Persephone always brings

back a bouquet of roses

when she returns, greets

Hades with a long, drawn

out kiss. She lets him bury

his Godhead in her red spring

locks while she dusts the soot

off of him.

The dead moan quietly in their

garden as Hades digs a new

hole for the flowers.

Persephone dances and her body

spins away from him.

He remembers what her

hair tastes like when she

leaves."

Be careful, darling.
Abnormal pleasures kill the taste for normal ones."

good luck darling

Visions of centipede are an omen of protection.
In addition to serving as guardian of the dead and protector of the netherworld,
centipede resembles fertility power on the earthly realm.
