i no longer have to hide

now; this week

fire, comfortable

the answer isn’t to swallow how you feel or who you are

because it’ll resurface and you’ll just grow bitter;

even if someone feels and seems good and nice

don’t settle for someone that doesn’t make you passionate

because you’ll grow to fear your own intensity

loathe your repressed feelings and strangeness;

going for someone you aren’t 100% about is a trap

because your intense feelings are the valuable thing about you:

don’t fear vulnerability—whoever it attracts will be the one
