YOUNG GODS

If life is a never ending loop of dirty dishes and laundry then that means life is a never ending loop of home cooked meals and comfy clean clothes

hmm. maybe u were put on this earth to make art and write bad poetry and create silly little playlists and being kind and maybe tearing up a little bit when you see old people eating alone

also. taking naps and being silly and saying hiiiiii

september really scrapes what has remained of your heart off the pavement & glues it back together with freshly made honey & gently guides you hand-in-hand to the nearest pool of sunlight & implores you to look at the way it gilds even the most minute details of your surroundings in gold & patiently waits while waves of nostalgia crash into your chest anew & when you’re finally resurfacing it tells you love gleams in your eyes like nebulae

i sometimes forget that this is everyone’s first time on earth too. like. this is my first time seeing a butterfly this color. but its that little girl’s first time seeing any butterfly, ever. and i accidentally left a bag of groceries at the store after paying and now i’m cursing under my breath and it’s like. there a thousand other people out there who did that today too. and a thousand more from yesterday. and. like. we’re not actually alone. and we’re not actually failing. at least not in a way that a few billion people haven’t before you

i am in severe distress. i am vibing. i am king of the world. i am bored. i am lost at sea. i am making coffee. i am foraging in the forest. i am making tea. i am chasing pigeons. i am napping in a chair

it’s like insane that an ancient writer knew the words i needed to hear a thousand years on and could see me through all that time but also. it’s not surprising in the least bc they felt as i felt and they sang as i sang and they did everything i’ve ever done there is no state of being which they have not already passed i am nothing new i am not alone and that is a great joy to know

and slowly you start to become the person you were born to be. slowly you start letting go of all the things that have been holding you back.
