Tracking down credit for something posted on tumblr is the worst.

( I really did love you, I just couldn't claw my way out of the ground to do it properly )

Oh wow, this is so painful. <3 it :)

It seriously is. I love it to pieces, and the central metaphor - the lighthouse, the rocks, the shore - is perfect.

That is powerful and so full of anguish.

Seriously. It hurts my heart but it's so perfect.

Actual crying going on.

Ouch.

It was wonderful, and I read it twice, but I kind of want to un-read it.

Oh dear! *hugs gently* I keep doing that with these posts!

But yeah, I see why. It's so painful and well-done, and maybe hits especially hard for those of us with more fragile mental health.

Yes, I do seem to be ridiculously wibbly at the moment. Sorry. I like the poems, otherwise I wouldn't click but sometimes they make me want to curl up in a ball and go 'meep'.

I've dated two people who suffered from depression and it was more painful than I have words for. This actually comes kind of close.
