we do this for the slip of a second chance,

the downwards slide of a silk dress

from shoulders so pale they are a



crack of sky tumbling itself

from small handfuls of clouds





the sheer delight of it,

to come back from that


ugly edge and find you,

soft and careful, loose

around my body.

Are you often naive or gullible?

I can be manipulated, if that’s what you mean. And when I love, I love blindly. I can be over-trusting. But it will strangely be on my terms. Either because I’ll be wilffully immersing myself in the illusion or because I’ll have figured it out but still not want to believe it? Aka I’m naive when my heart’s in it. When I’m vulnerable and open. When I want to postpone absolution in cognitive processes and kind of…attempt to freeze time, give the benefit of the doubt, allow things to flow etc.

I’m very self-destructive as far as that is concerned. Otherwise I’m just plain suspicious and slightly paranoid and overreacting. I’m a natural at overreacting, it’s just completely my nature. Both in the good and the bad. I can also act naive (pretty effortlessly) simply to allow the other person to lay their cards as “freely” as possible on the table. But I’m too perceptive // attentive for my own good, really, & I cannot escape awareness. Awareness comes. It might delay, I might be blind-sided in the process or blind-side someone else, but awareness comes. It might be painful but I’d never sacrifice it simply to indulge in the myth.

"I’ve stopped being sorry for all my soft. I won’t apologise because I miss you, or because I said..."

“I’ve stopped being sorry for all my soft. I won’t apologise because I miss you, or because I said it, or because I text you first, or again. I think everyone spends too much time trying to close themselves off. I don’t want to be cool or indifferent, I want to be honest. If I love you at 5AM, I’d damn well rather that you know I felt it. If I love you two hours later, I’ll tell you then too. Listen, I won’t wait double the time it takes for you to text me back because I don’t want to. I don’t care enough to be patient with you. I’m happy, you made me feel that way, don’t you want to know? So that’s how it’s going to be. I’m going to leave myself as open as a church door. And I’m going to wake you up before the crack of dawn to tell you that I’m fucking joyful, no pretending, not from me, not ever. Would you like some coffee, would you please kiss me? Here, these are my hands, this is my mouth, it is all yours.”

- Azra.T “Don’t Wait Three Days to Text First.”

Your last post (soul mate + train) would make for a great story

I have this theory right. I think everyone has multiple soulmates. And they could be anyone anywhere. And maybe you never meet and maybe you never cross paths but they’re out there. And for whatever reason it might not work. You might be miles away or in love with someone else or have nothing to talk about but for whatever reason there’s that pull. Tangible and persistent pull. And for the most part nothing ever comes of it. I think that’s quite comforting.
