"People shut their eyes to a distant tragedy saying there’s nothing they could do, yet they didn’t stand up for one happening nearby either because they’re too terrified. Most people could feel but didn’t act. They said they sympathized, but easily forgot."

i did not understand why solitude felt unbearable
and why “fun” could not permanently settle
turbulent emotions
~Clarity & Connection by yung pueblo
for far too long i was unaware that the only way for life to improve, for my relationships to feel rich, and for my mind to finally experience ease was for me to explore and embrace the anxious unknown that dwelled within

'Hello,' she said in a voice so husky it could pull a dogsled.

Imagine if every word in a sentence was an innuendo, like the average JSchlatt comment section:
“Would” “you” “like” “to” *wiggles eyebrows* “do” *flutters eyelids* “a” *stretches* “buzzfeed” *strikes pose*
-you get the idea
"Fair girl, why do you send your thoughts to the sky? The wind carries them aloft to mingle with the crows. Trimmed blue, your flags fly again today."
From Up on Poppy Hill
visiting hours are over
a melody from western japan
sticks to the tears you begin to cry
“visiting hours are over”
the curtains of your heart close
you sit on the stage
and fold
origami feelings
delicate
intricate
intimate
weak
now
you can take off your mask
and let yourself hum
quietly
nervously
and wait
to hear the same tune
from the audience’s side
