a piece of advice my dad gave me and I’ve never forgotten is, “if you won’t worry about it in 4 months, don’t worry about it now.” saved me countless times, it’s a philosophy to adopt and help improve your life. Failed a test? ask yourself if you’ll think about this still in 4 months? Made a fool of yourself in public? I doubt even the people who saw it will remember it past today. Know you could have done better? Ran further? don’t beat yourself up over it, you can do better tomorrow. Don’t overthink things, a lot of negatives matter less than you think they do.
So, I just came back on tumblr and my dash is literally, actually dead. So maybe reblog if you post any of the following and I will probably definitely follow you.
revelations under a starless sky in August; I feel like a porcelain doll since you left and I don’t like the edges that break clean where you spelt lust with shaking fingers on brittle bones and raw knuckles from holding onto memories that scrubbed me pristine and lonely and free again. I miss the shine of your eyes in July mornings and the warmth of your smile in a wanted face and the epitome of love that wrote my name in the dimples of your cheeks, sugar rose and peacefully quiet. Sometimes I hear your voice whispering my name in the wind like an old lover but I shrug it off and try not to see your shadow in every new girl I love.
one. You touch me on New Year’s Eve and I kiss silver glitter and Lemoncello off your lips.
two. You wear a turtleneck to cover all the lovebites I gave you last night and we eat pancakes for breakfast and share cereals out of the bowl.
three. You touch me and I shake like thunderstorms, lips quivering, hands bracing from lust.
four. I kiss you through a computer screen when the sun goes down for me but rises for you on the other side of the planet and I call you sweet-bug and you laugh all the heartache away.
five. Your heart moans my name. My heart cries yours. Together we make a great symphony.
six. Desire spells inside your eyes like honey; I lick and eat every drop you give.
