“White linen sheets
are bloodied, contaminated
by the disease
and cannot be unstained
for cleansing them
would rid the invisible
skeleton lover
that resides beside me.”
-EL
“You’re the marred hands
reaching under my door
in the stillness of the night.
Scratching and clawing,
trying to drag yourself in.
There’s nothing I can do
but brace myself
under bed sheets and endure
the sounds of torn carpet
and wails of the taut past.”
-EL
“He left roses
on my doorstep
just to trample them
each time he comes in.”
-EL
“Your smile suffocates me;
it’s the sunlight that shines
on the flowers in my lungs
only to discover a meadow
of decaying blooms.”
-EL
“I would carry planets for you
to disappear from behind each
letter I’ve written delusively.”
-EL
“‘I want to save you,’
he told me, ‘I want to rid
the evil that lives within
your sweet soul.’
I believed him. I believed
his cooing undertones. Assumed
he would slaughter my demons,
even sedate my speeding mind.
But I realize, he didn’t
desire anything else
except to be the mighty hero
and conquer the nonexistent.”

I’m probably gonna delete this in the cold light of day but my 5-year-plus-long relationship ended today and I’m a fucking mess and only managed to sleep for like an hour and a half before waking up and crying again and it just sucks everything sucks and everything hurts
So, I lost my job today because of the corona virus, all theaters were shut down and we were laid off with no pay and then my boyfriend breaks up with me tonight. I keep thinking how it’s a good thing now that I don’t have a job, since I don’t have to work with him anymore
Letting go isn’t easy, but it’s necessary.

Some steps need to be taken alone. It’s the only way to really figure out where you need to be.

If it doesn’t last I want to be the one they think about late in life, the one they regret losing...the one that got away.
