“i want to bind together our bodies,

intertwine our bones.

i want you to devour me.

to watch you,

strip off all layers of my flesh and digest."

— unknown

"Of course I wanted to see the world, to experience its fullness. I wanted to be a real part of it, rather than the passing shadow I so often felt like. I wanted to devour the world."

Saeed Jones, How We Fight For Our Lives.

I have absolutely no shame when I’m in love..  something strips my heart of all pride, it's pathetically degrading & embarrassing.. I just want to give & give. I'll love you forever & ever.

I hate you

I hate you for making me feel

I hate you for making me wanting to be close to you

I hate you for taking care of me

I hate it when your eyes go soft when they see me

I hate our eye contacts

I hate you when you kiss me softly

I hate that staying in your arms gives me peace

I hate it when you hold me close

I hate it more when you don't hold me close

I hate it that I have to see you for another three years

because I know I will not find anyone else when you are in front of me everyday

there will be no one else better compared to you

I hate it that everyday I want to kiss you

I hate it when you give me forehead kiss

I hate this feeling of having to hold you close and never to let go

I hate it when I don't return your eye contact

I hate it when i don't look at you

I hate it when you listen to me

and

I hate it so much when you don't listen to me

I hate your arms so much

I miss sleeping on them

I hate it when I go to sleep I think of you

I hate it when I wake up I think you

I hate that thinking about you makes me cry

and I hate it more when thinking about you makes me happy

I hate you so much when you make me smile

I hate it when I talk to you

and I hate it more when i don't talk to you

I hate it when I miss the little things that we used to do

cheek kisses

hand holding

you keeping your hands on my waist

laughing together

me keeping my leg on your leg

your hand on my cheek

I hate it when I do something for you because it makes me happy

I hate you for doing everything right

I hate that I cannot be mad at you

I hate you so much for not staying

for doing this one thing that I was most afraid of

I hate you for making me suffer everyday

I hate it when i don't see you for days and it makes me anxious

I hate this gut feeling telling me everyday not to give up on you

I hate you for making me fall in love with you

oh how I wish I could hate you

but I know

I never would

never could

not even a little bit

RS<3

listen to these songs after reading

hope you will like them

So I wrote you many letters, I couldn't send...Words, through my feather, I couldn't paint... Emotions, I could not reveal... So I hid and wished to no longer feel...The love I had for you...Oh! Past lover...

Heartbreak's Anthem i. You peeled my skin  And wore it like a scarf;  Scented and delicate.  You shattered my heart  With ringing blows--  Shotgun shells in foreign fields,  Still smoking,  Can tell the tale  But they can’t sing  And are too afraid to tell.
