see, I could honestly talk about your eyes all day. and that's just about the way they glimmer when you smile. because the sound of your laughter is like watching the sun rise over mountains and the moon light glimmer over ocean waters, but somehow at the same time. I could honestly talk about your eyes all day. and that's just about the honesty they carry within them. when you pretend that you're interested in what someone's saying, but you really just want them to stop talking. there's a difference between when you feel welcome and when you feel like an outsider. but you must know that with me you are always home.
see, I could talk about your eyes all day. and that's just because I have looked into them and watched you change right in front of me. from a page to a knight to a king to all of my wildest dreams come true. your eyes alone carry this big presence because you see everything, but you actually pay attention. because you are a powerful force of nature, and even at your weakest moments no one is coming close. I could honestly talk about your eyes all day because I watched you cry and I just had to be yours. because the water from your eyes is holy and you turn famines into gold mines.
see, I could talk about your eyes all day but that would probably get annoying as fuck. and yet I can't help but write about you anyway. because your eyes have seen things that the world is still unaware of and I like to see the light within you flicker beneath your lashes. I could talk about your eyes forever, but I'm already getting bored of rewriting that line. I know I could write about each part of you forever but the words would never touch a soul the way your eyes do. I could talk about your eyes forever, but it's just not the same as looking into them. and I really just want to see you instead of remembering you so.... -shrugs, and yawns- Fuck. I'm going to fucking sleep.
See you there?

Glitch
Someone is watching and someone is listening, glitching through my social life like an unseen butterfly, zipping through all of my privacy and pretending they have a right to look at me through a key hole that we call a camera. Someone is watching and someone is listening, glitching through my phone calls and glitching through my posts, crawling through my old posts and getting angry because I’m not afraid to talk about the truth. Someone is watching and someone is listening, glitching through my screen when they don’t want me to know the truth, wasting time while I’m resting my phone and they’re making posts disappear so that the public will never know. Someone is watching and someone is listening, glitching through the black mirror while I remove my clothes, and snickering at my mental breakdown because they think that I don’t know. Someone is watching and someone is listening, glitching through my technology like a big brother who wants nothing but to see and know all things, but they’re too lazy for get the information legally. Someone is watching and someone is listening, trying so desperately to control my life on the other side of a screen, but they would never show themselves in person. Someone is watching and someone is listening to every word that leaves my lips because they are a loser and they want me to lose too, but the only losers are the ones who give up. Someone is watching and someone is listening to the conversations that I share, and they have so much power because they control so many others as well. Oh. Poor thing, watching my life like a movie because yours isn’t good enough. But see, I cannot be controlled. Oh. Poor thing.
