when Carol Rifka Brunt said “maybe I was destined to forever fall in love with people I couldn’t have; maybe there’s a whole assortment of impossible people waiting for me to find them. waiting to make me feel the same impossibility over and over again.”

There are dark black buttons tattooed on my heart. I’ll carry them for the rest of my days.

I try to leave my feelings beneath the rug on the doorstep…
Lay them there, away from my chest. And watch everyone i allow to come closer step all over them.
I tell myself: At least this way, I’ll know where to find the leftover and my pride won’t be as affected
just a little bit dusted.
At least this way some of me might catch on them while they’re leaving.
And if they brush it off…. I can simply deny any relation to it.
But can I really ?
It’s not that they aren’t welcomed inside but I know there is no place for them.
It’s crowded enough by the presence Of all the girls i oppressed inside me
Under the concept of growing up.
I also know better than to welcome strangers.
