"We lay ourselves parallel to the sky, perpendicular to tree roots. We try to battle light pollution the same may I try to battle everything beneath my ribs." - Nhixxie; n.t; nikka ursula (26) (wpg, CAN)

"

A promise I intend to keep:
I will not be your sun,
I will not be your moon.

I will not let myself be
The sole things
That brighten your days
And illuminate your nights.

Let me be
The stars in the sky.

I will let
Your own iridescence
Brighten the cityscape
Of you,

And when everything is plunged
To darkness uncertain -
I will scintillate strong.

This is to remind you:
That my love for you
Is second
To the love you give yourself.

"


– Stars shine better when the city is dark, and I must not be the one to love you best. n.t | OTHERS
