they don’t tell you this

blueejay:

1.
Little dandelions,
pay mind to breathing.
I’ll tell you about stars and
never to wish for them in your
palms, for if they crash on you, you’ll
scream. Its light will blind you; its dusty
ice will immobilize you—
                                        the crust of your heart
                            should never have to disintegrate.

2.
Little dandelions,
fairytales were invented
to offer mankind fraction of
solace but instead the prince and
princesses fed happy endings to villains
and now little children believe in monsters;
they cup bruises like candies.

3. 
Little dandelions,
if you love someone or something,
it’s okay not to speak of’em. 

4. 
Little dandelions,
if you ever have a rainy
day, shout about it, let beads
of life flood you till you have to
bleed. Let your red spill over cities.
People tend to listen when they see injured
bodies.

5.  
Little dandelions,
death is a light bulb 
bound to go off one day
and the stench of corpses 
will be the only thing you know
for days—
                  pay mind to breathing.
