I want to weave you into me. Stick your thorns in and grow. Bleed sap and feel this shining light. Grow strange leaves. Bear this fruit. Share this soil. Bury ourselves. Reach for the sun. Strip this bark. Carve a name and a heart into me. Please.

I want to weave you into me. Stick your thorns in and grow. Bleed sap and feel this shining light. Grow strange leaves. Bear this fruit. Share this soil. Bury ourselves. Reach for the sun. Strip this bark. Carve a name and a heart into me. Please.

I like
sometimes, certain entries really affect me and stick in my mind. The Brace Position is one of them for example. I can add this one to my list....
Your words remind me of that certain part of my life. ouch.
What I would give to be with you..
But you didn't want this dream with me.
You wanted them.
And now I'm trying to heal myself. Alone.
i find myself in this exact place two years too late... and i wonder if i'm actually too late to take you with me.
carve your story into mine, i want to take root with you right here.
