Have heart, my dear.
It's just the changing of the tides, the weighted pause before the universe exhales.

Allow me to speak candidly:
I know you think me stolidly
And It's difficult, admittedly
To take this on clearheadedly
But I approach it avidly
It is the truth, decidedly
That I love you — devotedly.

Let me candid,
let me be clear,
I will be thorough,
deep and sincere

you cannot own me
I am not your possession
you cannot control me
please stop your obsession

Let go
Let go
or you’ll crush me for good

Let go
Let go
just do what you should

Went to get LO's metabolic screening done and while we were waiting the gentleman seated next to me had a seizure 😭
My panic attack was interrupted by a woman telling me that the ambulance was going to block her from getting out...
Like hello this man is on the floor and you're complaining 😂😡

Developed perfectionism
As a defense mechanism
To bury all my vulnerability
The most vicious criticism
The self-loathing cynicism
Feeding the growing instability
—
No abuse is greater than that
which we inflict on ourselves

You may not know it,
The day we met, we planted
Seeds of memory.

Tangerine Palpatine holy fucking shit first time seeing that and I'm losing my fucking mind omfg 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

"A kiss for me isn't just the pressing of lips. I want your breath to enter my lungs and rattle about with your life. My need is to sleep in your heart on a bed made of our conviction. The scent of you immersed into my skin, more known to me than my own. We join under the sheets like clouds merging"

I associate hurt with you
I associate fear with you
I associate control with you
I associate manipulation with you
and as you beg me
to love you,
you beg me
to be vulnerable,
I have covered myself
in steel,
I have silenced my voice,
I will hold up a mirror
so you see yourself

my wings
took to sky
and touched your face
when love
had no shape

When life gives you lemons
You make lemonade right?
Well, all I've got is the zest...
With its potent sun-bright bite
Fuck it, time for lemon bars!
