Sapphic-baby-girl - Sapphic Expressions Of A Dirty Mind

OMG!! This is SOO true!! I wish someone had told me this when I was a kid...it would have made my life SOOO much easier!!

OMFG This is such a beautifully articulated expression of thought. A lovely reminder to girls everywhere. ❤️❤️

Baby, say no to the DL boys

They don’t know the curvature of your soul like you do,

They see something to be wrapped and to be eaten and to be played with and forgotten

Breath and words are wasted upon them,

Give them neither your time or attention

Ignore their mentions, their hearts, their eager dripping parts

They don’t value your skin like the manuscript it is

Bound and tucked so neatly in pink silk, ribbons blossoming the spine

They don’t know what they’re seeing is divine

Like coughing in a library book,

Merely flicked through and putting it back on the shelf with the pages still folded.

Their wants don’t overtake much more than extinguishing their lustful torches

With you as the bucket of cold water

Baby, you’re a river, you’re an ocean

I wish you’d know this

I’d wish you’d notice

I learned this lesson the hard way over many years. Never let anyone so deep into your mind that you can't be happy without them. If they aren't going to put equal energy into their focus on you, they aren't worth yours. Friends and relationships...both.

Stop letting people consume you. they didn’t call? go to sleep. they didn’t message you? put your phone down and have a better day. they left you on read? delete the conversation. they didn’t make an effort? match their energy. never let your happiness depend on anyone

I want you to give me something to write about.

Draw circles around my name with a pen dripping in red paint, as you choose your next victim whose heart you will inevitably break.

Or maybe you could leave me in the wake of one of your self destructive hurricanes, the very same storms that we both find ourselves creating time and time again.

Let me be one of the stops on your next apology tour so I can sit with the guilt in your eyes.

Your silent shame and I will greet each other like old friends. I know it well, and it loves to watch as I find new ways to push my loved ones to their wits end.

So, give me something to write about; whether it’s making me get lost in small smiles or well crafted words you throw when you’ve decided it’s been too long since you last let yourself self destruct.
