I’ll get over it I just gotta be dramatic first
(via lookedlikegiants)
self care is also being honest with yourself about your negative habits and mistakes. it’s also taking ownership of your faults and growing from them. self care is diverting from a negative space to a positive one. creating light and balance. blooming. watering your own flowers. being gentle but honest with yourself.
so take care.

I tell myself,
that you are only
a moment. How
in this universe
full of moments,
we’re just two stars
that found the same orbit.
I tell myself that
it doesn’t matter.
if we fall out of love,
fall out of orbit,
stop chasing our heels,
stop touching each other,
like sunflowers
are growing from
our skins. I tell myself
that you are not the sun
and I am not the greedy Earth.
A mantra or a prayer,
I tell myself,
that it doesn’t matter
if someday,
I cannot hold
the soft mass of you
in my arms.
That I will
love you properly
here and now.
What I mean is,
if we are a moment,
I want us to track through
forever with our dirty shoes,
and our suitcases. If we are
a moment, let it be
now and now and now.

Forgive me my grief
that spans out acres.
I have love the size of
a church, & no one to
give it to.
Do I cut my hair?
Do I harvest all of my beginnings?
I touch my teeth with my tongue
to remember the sharp can fade.
Someone learns my name.
I fall asleep.
Like a snake, my heart
has shed its skin.
I hold it here in my hand,
full of honey and wounds.

You will burn and you will burn out; you will be healed and come back again.

don’t let anyone tell you that it’s a bad thing to feel things deeply. a full heart is a strong heart and being soft doesn’t make you weak. being soft and loving makes you radiant. you deserve all of the love in the world and so many good things.
I want to tell you I miss
you with no subtext. No guilt,
no anger, no expectation
that you’ll fix it. I don’t want
you to feel bad or to tell
me it will get better. This
is where we are meant to be
right now – me apart from you,
my hands a little empty and
my heart a little sad.
I just miss you.
I wanted you to know.

I miss you, but
I don’t wish you were here.
