little firefly.

             a little firefly, blinking in a jar for everyone else. she suffocates, + they shake the jar as her little light dies.

     i will try to forgive myself —- for being absent in public.

“Here, take my jacket. You look cold.” “Waking up next to you is my favorite thing of the morning.” “You look beautiful.” “I made your favorite food, because you weren’t feeling your best.” “I brought you flowers to brighten your day a little.” “You can always call me, even in the middle of the night.” “Everything is more fun when you’re around.” “Why would I watch the stars, when I can look at you instead?” “Come under my blanket, I know you’re freezing.” “Please be careful out there.” “You’re the best thing that ever happened to me.” “Your flaws are the best parts of you.” “Home is wherever you are.” “I don’t care what happens, as long as we’re together.” “Promise you’ll never leave.” “Your hand fits perfectly in mine.” “I’d do anything for you, you know that.” “I want us to grow old together.” “You have made me a better person.” “I’ll always try to make you happy.” “Of course I worry about you. You’re important to me.” “I belong right here with you.” “I’ll stay with you. I don’t want you to be alone.” “Let me take care of you.” “I heard you couldn’t sleep, so I made you some tea.” “I’m only me when I’m with you.”

“i don’t know if i love it or hate it.”

Once Upon a Dream by Lana Del Rey except you’re on a nightly jog along the forest path when you hear it - and the music grows closer as you simply continue jogging, but so does something else. A light. And when you reach that light, it’s a doorway that you feel deeply compelled to walk through.
