I was interviewed for Fernweh Magazine! →
I always feel so silly talking about things like I hold any sort of authority on the matter, but I’ve gotten some beautiful responses from this. It always stirs something inside of me when not only strangers, but also people I know have kind words to say. Forever thankful, forever stoked.

I have been talking to people I should stay away from because there’s something comforting about the way I never figured out it was a tinge of Southern accent in your voice until I couldn’t recall it back properly anymore.
I keep dripping orange juice in the crease of my journal as I try to make lists of all the ways I’ve learned to make love. Words have been hard to find, but...

To prove that I don’t only write about boys I like, right now I am eating a cheese cube platter in the park with my friend who is really nice to me and only gets a little jealous of my coolness.

I’ve been ending each day with a mile walk home listening to voices that echo similarly to old lovers. I told someone today maybe I was ready to fall into things again and I really hope that’s true.

It is easy for me to pinpoint the growth I’ve experienced when I press my finger against certain dates on the calendar. There’s a certain eloquence about how swiftly time moves, how I can wake up one morning months later to find a difference that has permeated everything around me. Writing too has always been a way for me to document my surroundings, charting maps to find my way back to important...
Anonymous asked: where can we buy the art of losing things or the cartography of us?
I spent most of the past 24 hours under some sort of intoxication and while I’m glad summer means I can spend the afternoon taking jello shots during a xoxo gossip girl marathon, I’m also incredibly thankful for the good company I’ve found in this city. This was a trying week, I guess, with the close of another semester and a few bad luck encounters with public transportation and...

I wasn’t writing you love poems in my head this time as I curled my body against yours, thinking instead of how sad I get sometimes when we end up collapsed and quiet. I try to hold my breath and count the way someone taught me when I was young, but instead it comes out as heavy sighs. Am I just exhausted by days without pauses? I’ve already forgotten what I should be apologizing for,...

stress sleep and coaxing time to be sweet and missing your fingers hinged with mine
(you know how sometimes you read things other people wrote and you wish you could be them, or at least, write like them, or maybe it is more about having something worth saying the way they do, how it gives you little chills and feels so important and you want to kiss them right on the mouth and say you fucking got it, how you wish you could be wise enough and brave enough to reach an audience...
