i want to be one of the greats

a letter to my future self

if i'm an option, don't choose me

there is something humiliating about being loved with hesitation

i'm a lover, with or without a lover

the reason why i write about love

i'd learn to be gentle for you

a poem

i am terrified of being abandoned

an ode to the lives i have lived

be the person you needed growing up

i know what it is to grow up in a house that was full of people and still feel completely alone in it.

the bare minimum should disgust you

it disgusts me every time i remember how little it took to make me believe i was loved.

maybe life is teaching you to be a witness to yourself

i think one of the hardest things to admit is that the wanting never really leaves.

if you want me, you better speak up

please unfold your arms and let me inside.

you need to be more whimsical in your daily life

i have had this journal page open for almost two hours now, and i still cannot understand how people move through their lives without developing any sort of intimacy with them.

being understood is far more meaningful than being loved

i think most of us have spent our entire lives chasing love without ever stopping to ask whether we were being seen.
