not everything needs to be a joke

Honestly, most of your jokes stopped amusing me more than a year ago. 

Buy your own materials for your damn school project. I’m not doing that shit because the only reason you want me to do it isn’t because you can’t, it’s because you’re lazy. 

And I won’t tolerate that.

The problem with keeping it together all the time…

My friends have all noted before that I usually keep my emotions behind closed doors. I mean, I am good at keeping thoughts to myself. I will almost always confide in a close friend, but I’m pretty good at blocking things out and getting on with my life if I need to. (At least on a daily basis. Getting to sleep or morning showers are a little different.)

So as a result, when I’m too tired to keep it together, and I get a little quieter than usual… Suddenly I’m bombarded with questions. I appreciate the concern, but… when it’s something I don’t really want to explain to people, it’s slightly frustrating. 

I mean, I know that when I usually crack, it means there’s definitely something wrong, it’s something I need to tell someone about. 

But this time… It’s not that. I just need to drown my thoughts out with music for a while. I usually don’t obsessively listen to music, but I kinda need that for a few days.  So don’t mind me. Talk to me like you normally would, but give me some time to sit with my music. 

Ugh I’m so dumb…

I don’t know what to do anymore. Whatever. Just keep on smiling and talking, then plugging in your earbuds when everyone’s gone.

falling slowly

Hold steady there, Laurel.

Don’t trudge so loudly. Don’t gallop so quickly. 

Just because you can move now, doesn’t mean you can just take off sprinting. You’ve been so patient and you’ve healed. Do you want to go back to the hospital, back to being crippled?

Hold steady. Slow down.

But you can feel yourself slipping.

Driven by instinct, you’ve found yourself at the edge of cliff. 

Once you realized this, you’re burying your feet in the earth, desperately holding on by the grains. But your balance is going out of whack. 

No one’s there to reel you back in. You’re out of control. 

Take your steps lightly there. Just step away. It’s simple right?

Because you know, you know, that there’s no net this time. You can’t just simply fall and expect there to be one. There will be no net. Nothing to break the fall. You’re sure of that. 

But still you can’t pull away. Instead, you step closer. Then step back. 

You can’t hear anything. You can’t even hear your own mind. You’ve drowned your ears out in music. The melodies swamp you. You are entranced. 

Just hold steady there. Please. 

If you don’t, you’ll fall, break your bones, and no hospitalization or wheelchair will help you this time. You’ll regret it. 

I beg you, Laurel. Hold steady. 

haha I have a whole week to catch up on

okay a week’s worth of these coming up

warning: a lot of these are really half-assed
