mohabbat mein nahin hai farq jeene aur marne ka usi ko dekh kar jite hain jis kafir pe dam nikle

fatima aamer bilal, excerpt from moony moonless sky’s i am not a person that can be loved for a very long time.
[text id: i am a tall child with no lap to crawl into and cry in. / so i make a big show of wounded skin, hoping someone pries in. / i am humiliated. i am just always humiliated, just by existing.]

My mother never made her bed.
Yet I was expected to make mine.
My mother never listened to me.
Yet I was expected to always be an open ear.
My mother likes her tea bitter.
I like my tea sweet.
My mother didn’t solve her problems.
She passed them onto me.
I’m nothing like her yet without her there is no me.
I am drowning in the deepest body of water.
She stands on the shore, watching.
Its not about what she does,
It’s what she doesn’t.

'What is this torture for?' And the voice would reply,
'It's just there. It's not for anything.'

"then it hit me: dying is just like sleeping. you only know you’re sleeping when you wake up the next day, but if morning never comes, you sleep forever. that must be what death is like. when someone dies, they don’t even know they’re dead. because they never see it happen, nobody ever really dies. this hit me like a sucker punch. "

"My fear of being real, of being seen, paralyzes me into silence. I crave the touch and the connection, but l'm not always brave enough to open my hand and reach out. This is the great challenge: to be seen, accepted, and loved, I must first reveal, offer, and surrender.”
Anna White, Mended: Thoughts on Life, Love, and Leaps of Faith.

"It always makes me a little sad when you laugh," Julian went on. "The way it sort of takes you by surprise. I love it, it has that sweet sincerity that's the best part of you, but it still kills me how you never seem to expect it. All I want to do is make you happy, and you're the unhappiest person I've ever met."
- Micah Nemerever

I become a poet when I'm sad.
And you tell me you love how much I write.
