I’M A FREE BITCH, BABY!
Clandestine sunlit moments…
Tracing poetry on your skin…
Morning light on your shoulders cutting through venetian blinds…
Mystic shapes in cigarette smoke above your bed
(our bed?)
And goosebumps when you touch my spine…
Time stands still and then it’s gone
Everything is temporary, the good and the bad— the beautiful fragility of being alive
5 hours of freedom! Yes yes yes!!
Come, let us hide nearer each other…
Life lies in every heart
As in coffins.

– Else Lasker-Schüler, from “End of the World” (translated by Michael Gillespie and Willis Barnstone)
It’s funny how life can hit you all at once with shit but one person can totally change it around with just a few words
Only I could break a rib from coughing
Lockdown suckssss
At least I have you, tumblr.
