Internal Hope Of Platitudes
November 20, 2024
I’m at an IHOP. I am sipping a hot chocolate, which I almost never do. I think of cavities. I feel how hypersweet the syrupy mess is. I really savored eating the cool whip and chocolate syrup that was on top. I love it. I am helpless to nostalgia and chocolatey warmth. I’m realizing I don’t allow myself things without self-critique. I find it hard to connect with myself and others for similar reasons.
