last night i dreamt my face was burned. badly burned. charred. as if i had fallen asleep on a barbecue. as if i were a red bliss roasted potato. my hair was red raspberry and my bangs had been butchered. unevenly zig zagging across my forehead. 

and i was surrounded by mirrors. and i stared into them. and i was horrified.

my handy dandy smarter than i phone was gone, in its place a sliding square brick meant for texting only. i was going somewhere, should have been going somewhere. but i wouldn’t go. 

i would only stare into mirrors and touch my skinny lips and feel my face for a fraction of the girl i used to be beneath that burnt, crisped skin

Anonymous asked: What are your thoughts on open relationships? Would you ever be in one?

i think that open relationships work for a defined period of time, or for people who are exceptionally self confident, with a strong sense of their self-worth. i think they can be a helpful alternative to a traditional long-distance relationship, as long as both parties are equally comfortable with the idea. i think i would be in one at this time in my life, yes.
