I want to be remembered for associating with the sinners, comforting the broken hearted and loving those who often forget to love themselves.

I plucked the flowers growing in my heart and tried to make a bouquet out of the pain I had blossomed from but the colors were so dull compared to the hues of your words, yet you still painted me with thank yous.

I am a product of long corridors, empty sunlit rooms, upstairs indoor silences, attics explored in solitude, distant noises of gurgling cisterns and pipes, and the noise of wind under the tiles. Also, of endless books.

We harm our stunning bodies. We repent every time. Forever climbing out from our mud into your mess of feathers and music, everything ringing of angels, we reek of borrowed lovers.

She pops a cherry into her mouth and with eyes full of mischief she leans in close, ‘Oh darling, your words, they seep into my veins and bring sunshine to my soul.’

5 things I love about shatteringlungs

1. You’re one of the best friends and nicest people I’ll ever have the privilege to know in my entire life. You’re so thoughtful and caring and supportive and just everything someone needs in a friend. Plus you just accept my weird things so thank you

2. yoU’RE THE MOST TALENTED PERSON EVER. Like you can draw, sing, dance, write (your writing is breathtaking), take AMAZING photos, seriously is there anything you can’t do? Bc I haven’t discovered it yet..

3. You’re hilarious and you always always always make me smile and laugh!

4. You’re stunning and so beautiful! (how you don’t see it will forever escape my understanding and makes me lose faith in humanity but I hope one day you’ll be able to see yourself the way everyone else does)

5. Your weird ass habits like your love of cereal (it’s a fetish) and staying up all night then sleeping all day and how you send snapchat spams and accidental shots when you’re happy and how you won’t wear shoes in summer (though tbh shoes are feet constrictors that nobody really likes), how you highlight and underline things in books and repeat words that sound cool when you’re watching something and how you write on anything and tag me in funny posts on insta and your obsession with candles and hatred towards coats and so many more! :)))

Soooooo it was kinda really bloody hard for me to pick just 5 things bc you know I love you muchly, you’re my fave and it breaks my heart (no exaggeration pal) that you can’t think of 5 things you love about yourself but I hope one day you’ll be able to do this sort of thing easily because I could have gone on 5ever! But yeah, here are 5 (amongst millions of) things I love about you! xxxx

Shakeira my sweet beautiful lovely best fried I am cRYING SO MUCH RN I fucking love you xxxxxxxxxx

to be able to explain the color of your irises to a group of blind people using only 26 delicate words is an extremely painful and difficult task the color of March afternoon skies in the reflection of the brook reveals the clandestine things palm on palm, from arteries to bones maybe the color of your favorite 8pm rain the cool drizzle that sprinkles onto your elegant face like a beautiful veil the different hues I feel in the corners of my abdomen now that you are gone are indescribable. so tell me, how am I supposed to tell someone or anyone, or everyone, the colors you made me see if you’re not here by my side to prove it?

I’m almost never serious, and I’m always too serious. Too deep, too shallow. Too sensitive, too cold hearted. I’m like a collection of paradoxes.
