As Someone Who Does Like To 'live Small', This Is Really Interesting To Think About. It'll Take Some

I love them,,,

today i’m fifteen

bruises on my hands

scabs split open

body shot to hell

today i’m angry at the world

and i don’t understand why

the world doesn’t take offense

today i’m burning rubber

in old parts of town i swore never to return

today i can’t seem to get lost

these winding roads are too familiar

and every turn brings me back to fifteen

bruises on my legs

fresh scabs from last night

eyes shot to hell

funny how yesterday i was twenty

adolescence fleeing my skin

tattoos scabbing over

innocence shot to hell

yesterday i locked eyes with you

yesterday i burnt rubber in the parking deck

yesterday i couldn’t get lost fast enough

today i’m fifteen

bruises still fresh

scabs yet to form

five years shot to hell

Found this very funny

This scene happens with literally 0 context or build up whatsoever

Welcome to the world

By sun.after.winter

Welcome to the world

I'm sure you'll love it here

With all the thoughts shoved down your throat

With none that you can share

Welcome to the world

We'll control your every move

Don't worry - your free here

If you do exactly as your hear

Late nights and Would you rathers

Kate Baer, from And Yet: Poems; “Idea”

[Text ID: “I will enjoy this life. I will open it like a peach in season, suck the juice from every finger, run my tongue over my chin. I will not worry about clichés or uninvited guests peering in my windows. I will love and be loved. Save and be saved a thousand times. I will let the want into my body, bless the heat under my skin. My life, I will not waste it. I will enjoy this life.”]

if you think about it, every time we tranquilize animals to transport them safely to another place, we are the sleep paralysis demon

The Road Goes Ever On and the Misty Mountains song (from chapters 16 and 18 of my comic adaptation of The Hobbit.) anyway: the symbolism of the parallels between these two poems ;-;. [Find links to all my projects here!]
