like *deep breath in* *roxane gay voice* you do not need to be everything to everybody, you need only be something to somebody and that somebody can be yourself and *the cranberries voice* I have decided to leave you forever
I have decided to start things from here thunder and lightning won’t change what I’m feelin’ and the daffodils look lovely today and the daffodils look lovely today and *michael cunningham voice* to be earnest and unapologetically romantic in an era that values wryness and cynicism above all else is no small feat and *ellen bass voice* to love life, to love it even when you have no stomach for it  and you think, how can a body withstand this? then you hold life like a face between your palms, a plain face, no charming smile, no violet eyes, and you say, yes, I will take you, will love you, again. and *terry pratchett voice* before you can kill the monster you have to say its name and *rudy francisco voice* i’m still learning to love the parts of myself no one claps for
