You know me, i love to lose my mind

when phoebe bridgers said "i don't wanna be me anymore" and when olivia rodrigo said "i'm so sick of myself, rather be anyone else" and when taylor swift said "will you still want me when i'm nothing new" and when harry styles said "what if i'm someone i don't want around" and when lorde said "i understand, i'm a liability"

i accidentally messed up my life how do i start a new account

sometimes i feel like i don’t know how to be anything other than what my trauma made me.

big fan of anything that shuts my brain off for a little while

I love how irrelevant tumblr is. like no celebrities on here, no colleagues or family on here, no one’s famous off tumblr or making money, tbh no ones even updating the site like is there even any staff? who knows? it’s bliss

I wanna be soft with someone and not regret it after

The idea you had of me, who was she? A never-needy, ever-lovely jewel whose shine reflects on you

There'll be a moment when you realise you're 27 when yesterday you were just 17; and you wouldn't be able to tell how a decade passed away and your life got divided into before and afters. The fury of youth will subdue and nothing will really change but everything will feel different when you look at old photographs and blurry videos taken on cheap mobile phones. Scents will remind you of childhood and certain friends you don't talk to anymore, hangouts will become reunions and mom's burnt pie will become the best food you ever had. And I know on some days you won't be able to show anything of those 10 years but I hope you remember to breathe, and let go of the knot in your chest. I hope you go out in the sun and live a little, because tomorrow is 37.
