• nothing is mine • autumn: smokeandfog •
A world transformed by a frosting of ice,
Flakes of snow tumbling and
Spinning through the air,
The gentle bow of trees
Yielding, and dancing with the wind.
And behind a shield of glass, Us.
A silence as thin and fragile as our hearts,
Your face washed in white light,
Your smile as quiet as the snow.
Cross-legged like children in front of the window
Watching the snow
Watching each other;
Neither of us willing to break the silence
Which has become reverent.
For if it were to break,
Which of us would fall in?
My favorite feeling is when it’s winter and you wake up in the middle of the night and you look out the window and there’s snow on the ground and the sky is kind of light colored and it looks misplaced and kind of eerie but also comforting i love it the most
Ok I’m losing my shit right now because I just witnessed the sickest burn a 7 year old could ever deliver.
I’m just sitting here at the park and there’s a group of little girls near me. They decided to play ‘Disney Princesses’ and this one girl who probably thinks she’s the ‘leader’ was assigning each one a character. Clearly she was choosing them based on looks, as a brunette she was Snow White, the 2 blonde ones got to be Cinderella and Elsa…
So when she got to this little Asian girl she obviously chose Mulan. So the Asian girl is like “Why am I Mulan? She’s not a princess”. The leader says in a nasty tone “Yeah but you have small eyes like her”. The Asian girl went quiet for a few seconds but then proceeded with the straightest face ever: “Then I think you should be one of Cinderella’s sisters”. The leader tilts her head and goes “Why?”, so my little heroine goes “because you’re ugly like them”

“I remember pure love. Catching snowflakes on my tongue. The potential I could find in a pair of mittens, but lately the bright white has turned to slush and mud. The cold finally seeped through my skin. Now these bones are bitter. Now this body looks at winter and no longer sees igloos and angels and carefree. This isn’t fair. Nobody ever asked me if I wanted to grow up.”
— Winter, V.P.
