When ever you walk in
You are the main attraction
the biggest thing in the room
everything else is just a distraction
because who could matter more than you
Stuffed with nothing but love and affection
with everyone you meet
you build a connection
like a gentle giant
you're always there to listen
so basically your ears are huge
and for this you are my muse
your strong powerful and durable
practically immovable
but so **** lovable
you'll never know how much your friendship has meant
your someone i could never forget
and neither could you
Cause you're my elephant.
dedicated to my close friend Anna Lanman

do not date a girl
who writes.
she will internalize
everything,
carve poems
into your eyelashes
instead of
kissing them,

she will analyze you,
calculate age
from the rings
your coffee cup
leaves
instead of refilling it.

she will memorize
the way your
lips curl around steam,
but not that you
take it
two sugars,
no cream.

she will read your
palm instead of
holding it
against her chest.

she will not
blink
when you leave,
because she is
already
romanticizing it.

A shadowed boy with piercing blue eyes
The quiet girl with guarded brown eyes
When brown eyes meet blue,
   the world stops, then jerks suddenly
with a torn gaze from frightened souls
The demons awake filling troubled minds with haunting thoughts

The only problem...
A love that would have grown so strong...
Was cast aside as a stray thought.

Stop me

Believe me

Relief me
Its all I do

She can't move on.
She says she's fine.
But deep inside, everything in her,
Reminded her of him.

She doesn't know if he moved on.
He acts like nothing happened.
He was okay. He was more than okay.
Deep inside she's struggling hard
To know how, why?

When can the two ends meet?
Will there be a moment wherein she can say that:
Nothing changed.
We're still friends. Close friends?

She wished that she could read his mind.
She wished she knew what was happening.
She wished she knew how to love like a man.
So that in the end,
She won't cry
