looking for a drawing of like a woman and a skeleton and a sword. I’m looking through a decade worth of tumblr likes + my whole entire blog to find it and I can’t :’)
My theme is broken asf but I can’t be bothered to fix it. Feeling nostalgic about the old tumblr days and wondering where all of my long lost internet friends are in this world
There was a summer of spiders and a summer of daddy long legs. There was a summer of crane flies and a summer of praying mantises. There was a summer of love and a summer of hatred, just like the summer of mosquitos and the winter of depression. There was a summer of desperation that came after the spring of foreboding, and the fall after that felt like the end of all seasons as we knew it.
There was that one old house in the middle of the block with a backyard and a pool and 2,000 square feet full of pure evil energy. As the insects shed their outer skins I shed my inner linings to rid me of the reminder that you were ever inside of me. The mantises laid out by the pool and sunned themselves next to me. After shedding their skin they could finally breathe again, and they whispered their secrets in my ear to prevent me from suffocating.
Like the crane flies I ascended to a higher state of being and like the spiders I fought tooth and nail to take back what was mine. I spun intricate webs from the silks of honesty and truth while healing the masses with my bumblebee prowess. I told enthralling tales of my life as a june bug reincarnated as a city cockroach reincarnated as a human being. I stand tall as I shed my skin and no longer feel the panic when my breath leaves my body. I know that in my next phase I will inhale more deeply than I ever have before.
