Spent the last few nights dreaming of being abandoned, like I have exhausted my friendships, or consumed them like they are a thing I can use up like The Woman who stores joy in the chocolate that she feeds as treats to those in her life. A silly fiction shitty brains assure me is Absolutely True In All Ways™.

It is silly, because just last week, I had several conversations about platonic love and the joys of telling your friends that you love them. Perhaps I am in a downswing (lingering anhedonia would confirm this), but I would like to go back to that joy.

As someone who has been Actually Abandoned by lovers, friends, mutuals alike, it is a scary and horrible nightmare that I wish to see the end of, more than anything. An awful reality to live that I have to tell myself I do not deserve, lest I succumb to the waters that threaten to drown me.

It’s wonderful you have those conversations about love and joy, and it’s rather evident in your works, writings, personal beliefs and attitudes, that you have an abundance of light and love coming and going through you 🧡
