It never really goes away, the longing for the life not lived, because isn’t that part of how we come to know ourselves too? Through what we lack as much as what we have, all we dream but do not hold. Some desires have no resolution.
Madelaine Lucas, Thirst for Salt (Tin House Books, March 7, 2023)

I feel like I am
chasing after you
but you keep running.
And yet,
you stop and turn around
to check if I'm
still there.
Why would you ask me
to catch up to you
if you didn't plan to stay
in the first place?

Reflecting on rejection over the whole weekend.
I never took it well.
You never took it seriously.
A decade later we are strangers again.
And being heart-broken hurts so much no author could ever describe.
Too old for this.
Just saying.

get it they want you to stay
or so i told myself
because i’m not ready to go
we are inherently selfish and bad and self serving
i can’t change anything of it
and only do what feels right
so what stops me then, from taking a step to sacrifice
i want to stay,
i don’t know if i should, or will be happy to

These deep longings,
these dreams I house within my heart and soul;
Neglected, never carried out.
They're coming for me like hungry wolves, like spreading forest fire, like sharks after blood;
And I, in my fear, absurdly,
think of a cage instead of wings.

In recovery they talk about the God-shaped hole inside us all. But you don’t have to believe in God to recognize that feeling of an endless drain—no matter what you pour inside, or how much, it’s never enough.
— Leslie Jamison, Splinters: Another Kind of Love Story (Little Brown and Company, February 20, 2024)

Daily Haikuku, no. 282
I don't let myself want great things because my mind thinks I can't get them.

ما هیڅکله فکر نه کاوه چې مات شوي ټوټې ټوټې کیدی شي
تر هغه چې ما خپل زړه ولید.
I never thought broken pieces could be shattered,
Until I saw my own heart.

Feeling that I am better for you than her yet knowing that I am not the right.
Nor is there right for me to judge, decide. What I am left with is hope, that you will decide. And that she will choose you as well. And that she doesn't take you apart.
And that you can forgive me for wanting and that I can forgive me for seeing what I shouldn't.
