beautiful // l.h.

luke continued to write more and more poems about happiness and love and purity. with each stanza he wrote, he felt himself turn happier and happier. it was the feeling he could never get from writing those suicidal poems he wrote when he was in his dark days.

not everyone appreciated it, but luke didn't care. he wanted to do this, and he was going to do what he wanted. luke wasn't going to take shit from anyone again. if he was happy and others were inspired to be happy, he would continue to do it.

he knew that this was really, truly beautiful.

elicia was starting to receive more and more days off from helping in the farm. she didn't know why, but she wasn't complaining. well, maybe a little; how will she finally get the body she wants?

all the free time she had was spent with pablo and her other friend, denise. like pablo, she also liked that poet guy from tumblr. but this time, elicia understood why: he started to write better. the poems, instead of depressing, were now inspiring.

one day, when she received another day off, instead of visiting pablo or denise, elicia went to her room and turned her laptop on. although her family wasn't wealthy, they still managed to buy what they wanted once in a while, thanks to the monthly shipment of her relatives from abroad.

elicia went to the poet guy's tumblr and read more of his work. she found out his name was luke, he lived in sydney and was sixteen years old. the same age as elicia.

it was surprising, how someone who wrote such tragedies also made beautiful - real beautiful - things. her favorite poems were the ones about love, because it was like he truly understood what falling in love is, despite his age.

he also had countless poems about love which weren't about falling in love. these were about loving yourself. elicia had problems with that, and it felt good - no, scratch that, amazing - to finally know someone who went through the same thing.

she needed to know more. she messaged him.

Anonymous: hi, how are you?

seconds later, he replied.

You: no, it's "how high are you." hi, i'm luke and i'm doing great. how about you? :-)x

luke didn't expect the anon to reply back. he/she said:

Anonymous asked: why hello, luke. i'm elicia and i'm doing fine, i guess. i absolutely adore your poems, btw. :) <333693

he laughed at the '69' inserted inside the heart emoji thing. the blue eyed boy took a moment to think of what he could reply back and quickly typed up:

You: hello, lady elicia. how come only fine? :-( you should feel great now that ur talking 2 d one n only luke hemmings :-p i like that 69 btw ;-) oh and since i told u my last name, whats yours? :-D

luke enjoyed talking to her, he found it amusing and entertaining and a nice change from everybody badgering him to post something new seconds after a new one is posted. the anon - elicia - replied:

he was laughing when he saw elicia's message, but was confused by some words she used. what was a "jej"? or what kind of word was "hoy"? was it like a "hey," just misspelled?

luke wrote another reply.

luke enjoyed talking to elicia. her replies were always quick but witty. it made luke feel as if someone actually wanted to talk to him, which as a feeling he rarely felt.

he decided it was beautiful.
