belonging

sarya the ceiling

1 min read

belonging is entitlement

sometimes for the better or worse


it can be a boost of confidence

you can scream “i belong here!”


it can be an object

that airport security has taken away


it can be a state of mind

where you have chosen to stay


it is the alphabet,

because A needs B

as much as Y needs Z

they all have their places,

and so they shall belong


belonging is flexible,

and varies depending ...

Do you have a particular thing you like to do?


IT SAID: I like to eat


Is there anything in particular you like to eat?


IT SAID: yes


Do you return to that thing time after time?


IT SAID: yes


Then that would be called your favorite.


IT SAID: okay


Now imagine that favorite thing to eat was your best friend.


IT SAID: i do not want to imagine eating my best friend


But you want to to return to...

We can make this work

I can be high maintenance

But I am loyal

Suppose we get in a fight

Love you no matter who’s right...

reflections

sarya the ceiling

1 min read

my mind is not a peaceful place

broken glass and crumbled walls

past arguments

and spoken slurs

echo down my marble halls

stress and red

lace the ceilings

fragile portraits

capture my feelings

I hate my guts

and my friend dressed in pink

i love my clothes

but i’m not what you’d think

sometimes i go days

without thinking to eat


but it’s alright


things are always changing

and in my reflection...

😨

“Alright then,” I say after the audience stops applauding. Someone clears their throat and my eyes draw to them. Oh. It’s Serafina. Of course. What better place to find you judgmental but also very nerdy ex, than at a seminar about the scientific method. I want to be clear right now, that I didn’t ask to speak, but then some smart dude with connections to the even smarter scientific community saw ...

Conversation From Below A Tipsy House

“ I think it was a tornado. Like in The Wizard of Oz.” She says.

“ I think that’s foolish.” I say.

“ So then what do you think caused it?” She says

“ Simple human error.” I say.

“ You think that about everything.” She says.

“ Indeed I do.” I say.

“ Huh.” She says.

“ Huh indeed.” I say.

“ Stop being a smart ass.” She says.

“ Smart ass indeed.” I say.

What They Know Always Hurts You

We all would’ve been better off, if you hadn’t told me where you actually were last night. We just can’t be friends anymore. This was how it was supposed to go:


You come over at seven. Together, we leave my house at 7:25. We drive to Angelica’s house to pick her up around 7:40. At approximately eight o’clock, we would arrive at the party. The deal was that we leave at ten. That’s the responsible ...

Your Shadow

in a bright blue beanie

under a willow tree

she sits

and i cant tell

who is weeping more —

her,

or the willow?...
