How I feel about this boy
I like the way he makes me feel when I’m in bed with him. The way he touches, caresses me makes me feel seen and adored. It’s too soon for this to be true of course, but the fact that he makes me feel this way is to be noted.

On Journaling
I love starting a new journal. I love these journals. They are the best descriptors of myself that I can think of - better than any qualifier. Qualifier being, an adjective or adverb that comes before a noun or verb that modifies, enhances, or possibly limits one’s understanding of the following said verb or noun. How odd it is... the recognition that you are understood as an object, or rather a direct object that is being described and thus, perceived. One does it all the time, subconsciously or not. Isn't it no different than establishing one’s reputation, or managing others' opinions of you? But nonetheless, how novel of an experience it is to step outside yourself and assess yourself in the third person. That’s what I love about journaling.

Colored
A Colored existence— All I do, think, say is Colored but not by me. In the mirror I see myself and think of the Colors I’ve been painted.
