do the silly thing. if you do not do the silly thing time will pass and it will not be the same silly thing it could have been. it will still be silly, and it will still be yours, but it will not be the same. this is both a blessing and a curse, but so is living; and if you do not do it now when will you? who will? it has to be you, it was always meant for you, waiting for you.

my hot take is that i like all of the “tumblr poets” and i think that the common literary language of what is largely girls in their teens and twenties on this website is one of the most beautiful things to happen to poetry if not literature in a while
