i have so many thoughts i want to write down at once, to do it beautifully and poetically and have anyone read it and say "yes, this is exactly it!"
i want to talk about the harshness of being feminine but also sexualized, the confusing truth of being someone's second priority, taking on the burden of being the older daughter under a mother who praises feminism but is still caught up in her own misogynistic ways.
i just want to write about life, as if the person reading knows exactly what i mean even if they don't know it at all.
but sometimes it is difficult to put those feelings into words that make sense to an outsider. how can i explain years of pain or feeling less than within one sentence? one fragment of a long piece of history.
there is so much to be said and so much time!
so many realizations after situations, like feeling such intense heartbreak but then realizing that the person sucked anyway! or my kindness being taken for granted, by so many people, only for me to find someone just as kind to love.
so many pieces of life to talk about, but maybe we aren't meant to write everything down.
i can at least try, right?
