gurl ๐ณ๐ณ im going ๐๐๐๐ sending you a packet full of warm hugs as we speak<3
Sometimes I scroll through this silly little app and look at what my mutuals write and I am just. I am floored. The god damn talent you all have with words. And you share that talent with the world. For free. Like. Incredible.
The untoward had happened;
none heard my bones cracked,
none felt the silence it left me with.
The earth beneath me wasnโt holy or fertile.
It was cemented, though crooked, unzipping.
The sky turned on me,
enclosing my body, following my soul-
I didnโt turn my head in, it was held straight
but another did not shield my body, I was left alone.
Thus, the realisation flickered my shattered soul:
The fate of being alive
didnโt help the survival,
didnโt care for salvation.

omg hi akrati howโre you
amber!!! hellow hi how have you been? im good just logged into this account a couple of days ago ( i shifted accounts) i miss this place so much aha bc of uni been kinda offline etc its been great what about u what are u upto these days?
Hey !! Do you know anything i could do to spend my time, like the free time i have. I just keep switching between screens all day and no matter how much i try to do something else, I cant. ๐
So if you could give me some suggestions to keep my brain occupied that would be great ! :)
heyyy hiii <3 okay so im def not the expert here but i tried tracking my screen time like u can download apps for that they really help. then about using the apps iโd say u cannot just turn them off and then not have anything else to do. so make out a plan for lets say 6 months then break it down into individual months then the same with weeks and then make a to do list everyday and just try and follow at least half of it. donโt put pressure on ur self from thr very beginning of the process since it takes time. and we are all humans afterall. but set goals for urself everyday, it does help a lot. and donโt loose hope u can still do a lots of things!! i mean just the fact that u can recognise that this isnโt the direction uโd wanted urself to go is more than enough to get u started!! sending u motivational pats on the back, love! <3
I'm so terrified. I have loved and unloved And it's not what I desired, it's just unjust. I have lived my sins And wept for good; I am a holy spirit in the world of blasphemous rules. I am plused and minused diurnally, Have been holding hands with ghosts, mentally. "Shut up and bang your head into the wall; a heart so strong will never get old." I stand for nothing, Immortality petrifies me. A heart so strong was never strong. To judge and build you cannot keep my sins. I'll cut my hands and bleed internally If that's what it takes to be holy and survive harmlessly. I will weep for the good until after you gauge out my eyes. If I showed you love you will die.

grief is a mother
grief is a mother that sits with the birds/ early morning in the graveyard/ pouring water over the rained ground./ she sits & thinks & larps over the plants/ that rise above her childโs grave. thunder/ is what she bequeaths before coming home.// home of hers is a rotten kitchen/ where the tiles shine of blood & tears wipe them, where the knives/ donโt know of the cabinet,/ & the spices rot within 20 days./ she stands behind the counter and/ serves the morning soup for two./ gets up & wipes the tears;/ she lets the blood cook the soup.// grief is a mother waiting/ for an unchained daughter./ she rubs the blanket to her feet at night,/ thinks of Spring with the crib of her/ moonchild. a daughter, an unholy wound;/ she dreams of churches and hears/ high pitched snores. snores of another with whom she shares her warmth/ that brings her wishes/ & a means to ponder along.// grief is a mother with an early scar./ each afternoon, in the quiet she drowns/ in her motherโs womb. soaking inside the sac, hands entwined, she rises to practice the/ eulogy she failed. with each breath,/ she dies of the blood that runs in her veins.// grief is a mother with a damp rug,/igniting fires for lives to cradle;/ a mother that sings in whispers by the burrow. calling upon the heathens, she mourns the death of her tears./ grief is a mother that lives/ in the memory of mothers.

I read the words you spilled with your ink.
The kalam wasnโt yours, you felt your words were stolen
from generations of speakers and coherent concepts that
you have been reading since your father first gave you his motherโs death book.
You never took my breaths away,
I let your imagery sink in my skin
like a child entering adolescence,
I felt incomplete.
You complied them for her-
enchanting, like waters falling from a height in a river,
You distinguished and tied her together
as I sat reading. She was such a goddess-
You were in her feet, you merely described her arms
and if I were to offer you mine-
Ink spilled just like yours- you wouldnโt come.
You believed in one of a kind
And we shared dispositions.
