it’s okay to feel lost. we don’t always know where we’re going next.

dark academia ask game!

the secret history 🏛: how close are you and your group of friends? how far would you all go to protect each other? how many languages do you speak?

if we were villains 🎭: are you into theatre? who’s your favourite shakespeare character? would you or do you smoke weed or cigarettes?

dead poets society 🖋: do you prefer poetry or prose? do you get along with your parents? do you resist authority or do you deal well with it?

kill your darlings ⏳: would you consider yourself an intelligent person? have you ever fallen in love with someone who wasn’t right for you? tradition or innovation?

homer 📖: is it more important to be brave or to be kind? do you like to read?

cigarette 🚬: what is your worst habit? do you like drinking? do you party a lot?

leaf 🍁: what is your favourite season? what is your favourite comfort food?

vermont ❄️: would you ever go to school far away from your family? are you scared of losing the people close to you?

wine 🍷: how far would you go to help yourself? what about to help other people? do you think humans are inherently selfish?

piano 🎹: what’s your favourite musical genre? do you play any instruments? who’s your favourite artist?

whiskey 🥃: tell us about your first kiss. what quality would make you reject someone who asked you out?

murder 🔪: are you capable of getting very angry? what are you most afraid of? what would be the worst way to die?

Daily Reminder: You are amazing. You are beautiful. You are awesome. And I love you so much <3

Oh my god i love the moon!! I can't believe she's just out there, floating!! And it's free for us to look at her!!! We can just open the window and she's there!! Looking over us! She's a mother, a daughter, a lover, a secret-keeper, and so much more!!!

loggin back on here, feels like picking up that half read book and continuing with the story line

blood on women is sexy if it’s someone else’s. blood on men is sexy if it’s theirs. hope this helps.

The way this quote slips through my ribcage and strangles my heart

poem: my favorite book

i let you borrow my book

and i am still waiting for it back—

i wonder if you are too afraid

to tell me that you have lost it,

or if you are still reading it and

only got distracted—

does it sit on your shelf gaining dust

like it did on mine till you borrowed it,

are you reading the notes i etched in margins,

are you writing your own?

did you wonder how the spine got so cracked,

how much i must have loved it,

and how i let it go to you

all the same—

it has been months since you took it from

my grasp,

and even though there is no time limit

on its return,

i just want to know,

do you enjoy

my favorite book?
