and yet the ways we miss our life are life
   
staring at your sleepy marble eyes
 
just as the stars surrounding the silver moon must hide their gleaming faces when she grows full and shines most brightly upon the earth...' by sappho

hello, i am a 19 year old girl living in england. I like reading books and poetry as well as writing my own. I also play the piano, listen to music and love going out with my friends and getting stoned.

here is some of my writing

steady constant anxiety has taken your place, you flutter in and out like a butterfly but when I land in weakness- a plain, you move through each part of my brain like water across a flood plain,desperate I reach for you, send a tear drop in a parcel all in an evening far away from you, i choose your role but roles are invented, only events are solid and true, i want to cry for an hour somewhere new, i'm weak paper doll, pretend person nothing comes with ease i wish he'd meet me deep inside cry and not know why somethings wrong like a fear of the dark, where's the dark i feel blank, wasted, empty, lost afdter the funeral when the guests were gone, purple flowers blew around in the street and children picked them up and took them home where they stood just as flowers, not somebodies life, see the life not the role, see my life, my emotions are puzzles walking blind, something generated from subtleties that i cant understand. I want you to hold my brain, not my skin, i want to be transparent, so i'm safe in your understanding. you call it my inner intensity but it's only intense in my hiding.

 
my ambition is to have a guardian fairy
