it's okay to write me love letters and make me personalised playlists every week. normalize it.

Friendly reminder that;

1. not supporting the LGBTQIA+ community is homophobic.

2. thinking being gay is a sin is also homophobic.

3. not supporting blm is racist.

4. You’re allowed do whatever the hell you want with your body unless it is physically affecting/ hurting those around you.

5. all bodies are fine the way they are. You dont need them to be pretty to feel validated, you waking up and getting out of bed is enough.

6. science is real.

7. you are not allowed to have opinions on things that physically hurt those outside the womb.

8. not supporting Stop Asian Hate is racist.

9. Gay couples are more likely to raise a happy child because they truly want and have to fight for them.

10. kids are not for everyone.

11. mental illness is real.

12. not everyone believes in God.

13. you’re allowed to take a breather.

14. trans people are actually the gender they identify as, even science says it.

15. quit glorifying mental illness.

Feel free to argue with me if you disagree with anything on this list

Hello stranger

Hello stranger, who are you? Are you the next for me to chase? Another short-lived mystery Another tempting human case Open up and let me in Show me each and every clue Until one day I have them all Which means one day, that I have you But before we carry on There is something you should know It takes one blink to make you mine And half a blink to I let you go Soon enough I’m moving on To be chasing someone new And you’ll have nothing left of me but Hello stranger, who are you?

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am seven

and my reply is

pink

because i am a girl

and pink

is a princess color.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am ten

and i like

green

because a boy told me that pink

is lame and girly.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am thirteen

and i tell them

purple

it is unique and spunky

like i want to be.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am seventeen

and i just say

red

i do not say

it is bright and angry at the world

as i am

i cannot form the words to express

all of my frustrations

so i paint my lips with

rage.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am twenty

and it’s pink

i remember the joy

of being a child

i reclaim the freedom

of femininity

because i cannot remember

what my shoulders felt like

before the depression

hung from them.

i am asked about my favorite color.

i am twenty-six

and my answer is

brown

it confuses most people

they don’t see it

they may think of dirt

and dust

and dead things

but it is coffee with friends

and the chocolate chip cookies

my mom used to make.

it is my hair

and my eyes

amber and gold

in the sun

and i love myself

again
