a daydream delusion

god should have made girls lethal

me: *has A Single Emotion*

““Your generation would probably ‘livetweet’ the apocalypse” you say, and you laugh You mean it as an insult, and I understand, Or you don’t because the word lies awkwardly on you tongue, stumbles as it leaves your lips, air quotes visible You meant it as an insult, so you don’t understand, when I look into your eyes and say “Yes” Because we would. It would be our duty, as citizens on this earth to document it’s end the best way we know and if that means a second by second update of the world going up in flames, or down in rain, or crushed under the feet of invading monsters so be it. It would mean a second by second update of “I love you” “I’m scared” “Are you all right?” “Stay close” “Be brave” It would mean a second by second update of the humanity’s connection with one another, Proof of empathy, love, and friendship between people who may have never met in the flesh. So don’t throw the word ‘Livetweet’ at me like a dagger, meant to tear at my ‘teenage superiority’ Because if the citizens of Pompeii, before they were consumed by fire, had a chance to tell their friends and family throughout Rome “I love you” “I’m scared” “Don’t forget me” Don’t you think they’d have taken the chance?”

“I remember when I was younger and I wanted to be beautiful; now I’m older and I want to be intelligent. I want to burn hearts with brilliance and engulf souls with compassion. I want to be loved for my thoughts and nothing else.”

“I want to be around people that do things. I don’t want to be around people anymore that judge or talk about what people do. I want to be around people that dream and support and do things.”

“I want to have more sex, travel more, drink more wine and love life.”
