American Really, I'm not a poet
I hope I meet you sometime in the future We'll bump into each other in bookstore Or a coffee shop And we'll hug and make small talk All along I'll be thinking You were the first person I ever loved You were my first everything And then we'll talk about our lives And all the great things that have happened In the end you'll tell me you think about me once in a while And I'll say I think of you too And then we'll go out separate ways And I'll think to myself I hope I meet you sometime in the future

I hope I meet you sometime in there future
I don't love him He's just a friend But to him I might be more His drunken words released secrets Secrets I didn't want to know And when I was drunk I made sure I kept them in Because I don't know what would come out If I let myself speak truthfully I think I would have asked him if he likes me If he thinks I'm pretty I would ask why he only kisses me when he's drunk And I would tell him that I read his poem And that I feel that same warmth when we kissed And that I could have stayed out all night too And that it was like you were someone else I know I made you feel like someone else Because that night you weren't a player Or a cheater Or a liar You were gentle And you were special And you were kind All I did was release you Everything buried deep inside was released With my lips and with my smile I found your weakness So maybe next time were both drunk I'll tell you I read your poem And I'll tell you I wrote a poem back

Drunk Secrets
Tomorrow I'm going to the lighthouse And I'm going to draw all the beautiful things I see Because people don't take enough time to see it They don't see the ocean as an enormous creature They see it as a place to lounge and capture food They don't see clouds as beutiful gigantic structures They see a shield from their precious sun People don't understand the beauty around them People are so indulged in luxury and technology That all they see are things they want to see And the beautiful things are trapped behind the selfish human mind

Tomorrow
He tasted like **** and cheap liquor It was 5 in the morning We were on the couch Friends on the floor Our bodies were close And it was hot Early morning light crept in But I couldn't see his face He kissed me even though he shouldn't have I think I was still a little drunk I got that feeling again The feeling of being wanted But it only lasted a little while Until it was time to go home And I knew he wouldn't think of me again

I Got That Feeling Again
I try to be hopeful But really I'm just a wide eyed teenage girl With a lot of dreams And not a lot of possibilities

Hopeless
Recently I remembered my favorite kiss It wasn't the first Or the most passionate But it was slow And sweet We were sitting in a sweaty bus after prom And everyone was exhausted It was dark and I couldn't see your face My body rested on yours in an uncomfortable spot But it was perfect at the same time I turned my head to look at you And somehow you knew So you leaned in to put your lips on mine It lingered I couldn't hear anything It's like it was just the two of us In the whole world And I never got that feeling before But right then I knew I was in love Because you were the only thing that mattered

My favorite
The smell of fish lingers in the air My hair slowly becomes sticky with salt There is no sun today It’s overcast and windy The swells are small The boat moves swiftly across the dark water There is an electricity flowing through me As the wind hugs my body I feel it in every crevice I feel it through every hair And all of a sudden I miss everything I miss being touched And feeling like I was complete And whole The wind made me ache for you Maybe not you But anyone Someone

Wind
I know I shouldn't have kissed those boys With the whole town standing around I didn't have much control over myself And it felt good in a way I felt unstoppable And when I saw you through the crowd There was fire inside me I hated you for what you did to me And I wanted to feel loved again So I took the stupid boys hand And I climbed up on the sidewalk And I kissed him mostly because I could And I kind of liked the attention I liked the feeling of people looking at me And thinking Isn't that the girl who always sits alone and never talks? I don’t want to be that girl anymore When I pulled my face away from his, his smirk said he wanted more But I turned and walked away Only to find another boy waiting to feel my lips That one was a mistake And I wish I hadn't kissed that second boy But I did and I felt loved again In some messed up and twisted way I hope you saw me I hope you hated it I hope you burned with jealousy I hope you wish you hadn't left me behind But I know you probably didn't.
