I will not keep these letters you wrote
or the pictures you took of my home
you will not remain in my memory
or in corners where thoughts will roamyou will not be in my heart
you will not be in my mind
you will not be saved
for reminiscence’s plunder to find -

whitney wrote about the word probable 2 years, 9 months ago
Ah, in a lifetime we all search for many things. We lie. Try to tell the truth. Hurt. Try to heal. We plunder and hunt for something to ground us in ourselves. Validation and happiness. And we do it against all odds. Against all probability that what we search for is not something that can [...]

whitney wrote about the word sponge 2 years, 9 months ago
I take all the bullshit you throw at me. Every name. Every lie. Every bit of invalidation you have to use to make yourself feel human. I sponge it all up. Taking your misery. Heavy, wet, leaking.. .you can’t do anything with me. And even when it evaporates inside of me somewhere, I am left [...]

Will ink become your blood, sister? Going to that tattoo parlor with your friends, getting stuck just because they did… you’ve been indoctrinated in an ancient caste system. You’ve made it permanent and obvious that you do not own yourself. Falsely decorated. Falsely adorned.

whitney wrote about the word miles 2 years, 9 months ago
There are roads to many ends. And ends to many roads.
But I’ll never know those ends, I think.
You don’t have any ends.
And I no starts.
Miles between us, and no road.
So many miles. -

there’s a funny sort of insanity
in loving someone you will never meet
proximity is not closeness
being with you is more than being next to you
in our minds, in mutual affection, we are near -
