Oh pretty girl
They want to
Heal your fractured heart
With tape and
Messy glue
Hide your
u-g-l-y
cracks, but darling,
They won’t see
How each one
Is a story, and
They’re what makes you
You
And you may be tarnished
But you’re whole, so
Hide your careful flaws
Behind your prettypretty mask
Shh… don’t tell them
Pretend that
Nothing’s wrong

I am over people demanding their right to rape pages, and calling it freedom of speech or justifying it as a joke.
I am over people not understanding that rape is not a joke and I...

You map out conversations.
You’re an explorer with a pith helmet
Muddy socks
And directions that always get you lost.
You try to chart the smiles you’ll give,
The way you’ll tilt your head and
Flutter your eyelashes.
Conversations are mountains to climb when you’re alone and
Affection is as distant and confusing as the galaxy.
It’s so easy to make things up...
What happens if you fall in love with a writer? →
karenfelloutofbedagain:
Lots of things might happen. That’s the thing about writers. They’re unpredictable. They might bring you eggs in bed for breakfast, or they might all but ignore you for days. They might bring you eggs in bed at three in the morning. Or they might wake you up for sex at three in the morning. Or make love at four in the afternoon. They might not sleep at all. Or they...
