I Hear It Too

'Jane, could you come down to the kitchen?' her mother's familiar voice calls from the kitchen.

'Coming!' she bounds down the stairs.

She is down when the cupboard at the foot of the stairs opens and a pair of hands draw her in.

'Don't go into the kitchen; I hear it too,' her mother's voice whispers into her ears.

a book quote, not because i’m lacking writing inspiration, but because i genuinely want to share it

"I'm not changing!"

"Of course you're not. You're just becoming more of what you've always been."

Jeff Vandermeer, Annihilation

@unknown is typing...

I always had a bad habit of letting people follow me that I didn't know on Instagram. So many of my friends did it so I figured if they can do it I could do it, plus I had so many followers. One day I had someone follow me with an unusual picture. when I looked at the user name it said unknown but of course, I just shurgged it off but then no sooner I accepted their follow request they texted me. It wasn't a normal "hey how are you" text it was a video, a video of what looked like a dog getting skinned alive. They texted me"do you like it?" I then went to block them but when I hit the block button nothing happened then they started typing again, stopped then started again. All night I was scared that they were going to send another video of something horrifying. When I fell asleep they were still typing and when I got up they were still typing. for days I just left it but after a while, it drove me crazy. Something had to be done but then I got a text everything changed. "I'm in your house"

I have never understood the term ‘love yourself’. What does it mean to you?

bohemian boy

he’s a bohemian boy

laughed at for carrying a purse, but it’s filled with joy

he’s a bohemian boy

able to levitate ever since he traded meat for soy

he’s a bohemian boy

ever misunderstood, cunningly coy

he twirls, he spins

he blooms from within

a kid at heart

he loves to play, but he’s not a toy

oh, he’s a bohemian boy

adorned with crystals

protected by potions

underneath a crown of flowers

he has special powers

he prances about

scaring away doubt

he’s high on life

he’s not coming down

he’s a bohemian boy

hmm, maybe he’ll fall in love with troy

possibly roy?

he’s a... wait

what’s that?

oh, for now he’s choosing  joy

he’s been hurt

so he made gold from dirt

he’s a...

you know by now

he’s a melody boy

no, wait, a honeybee boy

dripping with sweet, sweet joy

Strong

What is it about her you despise

Is it her rare beauty she can’t disguise

The storms sent her way only made her strong

They knocked her down, but not for long

She gets up never accepting defeat

She may seem to sometimes retreat

Only to regain her strength from within

Her peace and gentleness will always win

Don’t take that for her being weak

She isn’t built for the minds of the meek
