those of us who vow never to love again, are making liars out of honest men.

on some level i think i always understood that a ship could never really love an anchor

and all you can hear is the sound of your own heart, and you can feel is your lungs flood, and the blood course

this lump in my throat is the knot that you tied, with a flick of your tongue, and a wink of your eye

don’t look up to me, i’m not as tall as you think you see i talk a big game, but it’s bullshit

yes, i'm young and living dreams, in love with being noticed and afraid of being seen

000

and if i were someplace else and if i were someone else and if i were not myself would this be easier?

000

i don't know why i am the way i am, there's something in the static, i think i've been having revelations

“are other people a burden to you when they ask for help?” “no, of course not, but-” “then why would you think that you would be one?”

he’d never say he loved me. not out loud.

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 10h

you can’t go back, darling, the time has come for moving on

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 11h

i will drown for you sink to black from blue and let the water win

un jour je serai de retour prés de toi

once i took your medication to know what it's like, and now i have to act like i can't read your mind

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 14h

there, among the shacks, is your home. stay. have a drink. forever.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 15h

and i believe that yeah, dad, maybe no one is perfect, but i believe that you were pushing your luck

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 16h

still haven't found what i'm looking for some escape from my sin

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 17h

you came in here the other day and you said you thought it would have been better if it had been you who was shot. you act like you're expendable. but you're wrong.

i get mean when i'm nervous like a bad dog

there used to be a little girl, living in a very small house in a very small town. there isn’t a little girl there anymore. they do not last very long.

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 20h

should i run a million miles away from every memory of you?

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 21h

nothing matters, the importance of nothing

i have known friends to crack from love's weight blossom in ribcage, until their backs break

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 23h

they tell me, “grief is just love letting go” they say it like milk has been spilled on the floor

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

it's no big surprise you turned out this way, when they closed their eyes and prayed you would change

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

we get what we deserve, don’t we? we never really learn, or do we?

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

he's not my boyfriend. this man is more to me than you can dream. he's the moon when i'm lost in darkness and warmth when i shiver in cold. and his kiss still thrills me, even after a millenia.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

i was a birdcage, and you were meant to fly

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

i can’t love you how you want me to

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

you deserve better than this, i know. you deserve better than me.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

if there's one thing i could never confess, it's that i can't dance a single step

he loved the sun so much he was willing to die just to be able to touch her, only momentarily. i think that’s what you are for me.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

you're not going to be happy unless you're going mach 2 with your hair on fire.

000

this lump in my throat is the knot that you tied, with a flick of your tongue, and a wink of your eye

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

all the love, all the kindness, all your best-laid plans, couldn't stop me from becoming the way that i am

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

become someone's wife, forget the girl that she once was

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

someday i'm gonna be somebody people want

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

i made a promise, mr frodo. a promise. “don't you leave him, samwise gamgee.” and i don't mean to.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

i can’t stay. i can’t carry on. and i really hope you don’t hate me for that

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

i would've gone with you to the end, into the very fires of mordor.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

true love is possible only in the next world - for new people. it is too late for us.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

if i had my way, i'd have missed you more than you missed me

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

the only reason i'm here is you. if i send him on this mission, he might never come home. and if i don't send him, he'll never forgive me. either way, i can lose him forever.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

this is not what i would do but this is not about me

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

i’ll come back for you. when this is all over. i’ll come back for you, love. i promise.

000

she was fearless and she was afraid, she was afraid, she was afraid.

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

you left me alone for ten years! don’t tell me i can’t be angry!

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

thought i was raised better, tried to fake better, tried to blame weather and escape better, hope the skin heals where the pain enters

000

lichen @mosstwigs.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

“i wish you wouldn't look at me like that.” “like what?” “i don't know,” i hesitated. “like you could love me.”
