autumnrose - Hello Poetry

You know that feeling you get when you hear a song for the first time and you just know instantly that you love it. It puts you in a sort of alternate reality. I wish I felt like that all the time. You know that feeling you get when somebody says something funny or cracks a joke that makes you forget about everything else in the world at that moment but how funny and effortless that moment is. I want to feel like that all the time. You know that feeling when you walk outside for the first time in the day and the world just kind of takes your breath away. I particularly feel euphoric when it's acting like it's going to storm but it's not actually storming. Cool wind, dark skies, I love it. Makes me want to go on adventures. You know that feeling that you get when you just suddenly recognize the beauty within the world and you get this urge to just go adventure and do awesome things...but instead you just put on your work uniform and go to work. Again, and again, and again. day, after day, after day. I love life, but life only loves me back like half of the week. I wish life was lovely every single day, and I know what they say. They say, "it's your attitude, it's your mindset", And yes, I get that, and I can be happy anytime really. It's just that, c'mon, what is more lovely. making tons of pizzas and doing dishes in a depressing store that's 87 degrees on a "good" day, and getting yelled at by customers, and washing 20 pans by hand while simultaneously sweating 20 gallons a minute, or exploring and listening to Lana Del Rey, picking flowers, cooking simple but perfect little meals, cleaning the house, writing letters to family members, watching lovely little movies that make you feel some type of way about life. looking at the sky. I don't know, maybe I just need to come to terms with reality. Life is pretty hard but it's a lot easier when you have someone to love. I never mind going to work really, because I get to come home and spend the night with my love and at that point, nothing really matters. I just start to worry that I'll become too content with being discontent 50 percent of the time.

I'm very much in love with you. I always have been, I always will be. I don't really know why, you're just the one for me. I guess that's a lie, because I could probably explain why. Because I like the way I feel so light around you. You always make me happy and worry free. You're good for me. without you. I'd drink too much and never do my hw. You're good for me. You keep me pretty. I like the way you are so determined to be awesome and successful. I like the way you put your arm around me in the morning. I like the way you stay by my side even when I'm conflicting. I could hang out with you forever and I wouldnt even notice time passing by. I like cooking for you because you're always so sweet even when my food is not. I like that you like me, Not to mention, you're pretty lovey.

I've been trying to turn my reality into a movie. nothing is as pretty as the wind on a cloudy evening. I want to feel like that all the time. Pretty and free. Sometimes I get jealous of my fish. No worries in the world but when will I get fed again. Just swimming in circles happily. Or so it seems. I'm not really jealous of my fish but I do wish I could just swim around and not worry about anything. Sometimes I think that I know so much about the little things in the world that it's impossible to put it into words. I feel like I have big dreams but in reality, all I really wanna do is watch movies with you. I want to go to a dark little restaurant and order something weird and make fun of it with you. I wanna drive around and listen to Lana Del Rey all day. I wanna plant flowers in my yard and laugh about pointless things all day. I want to have a dog and I want to give him hair cuts and put little handkerchiefs around his neck. I want to decorate for every holiday. I want nice smells like evergreen and lavender. I want to take sweet showers and fall asleep in clean fancy cotton. I don't know. People are always telling me to dream big things, but all I really wanna do is dress up real fancy and cook nice things. I just wanna do it in a better house, in a better town, in a better place.

My English teacher told me that my sentences didn't have enough commas. Sounds to me like she just needs some looser cardigans. I just want Swarovski crystals and silk pajamas. I want nice bed sheets and curtains. Preferably white and lacy. I want a nice little part time desk job that's only a few days a week. you see, I'm actually a good writer, but it's not straight A's on essays that I seek.

There's this little sweetheart who I work with and she's so awesome and sometimes misunderstood. She's a hard worker and she's fun and nice and good hearted and naturally cool and I really wish more people would treat her better because she's such a doll. She's just a little younger than me but we just connect and I feel like we're the same age and it just totally ***** that her rents are pretty strict and we can't hang a whole lot but at least we can hang out a little. Anyway we were cruising around last weekend after work and I'm loaning her my old iPhone because her rents are lame and took her phone away, anyway it has all of my music on it and we were just listening to music and she says "I really like this girl." And it was Lana Del Rey and I couldn't help but grin. Like I could just chill with her and have so much fun. The other day she brought me a mcchicken with extra mayo, just how I lIke em, while I was at work. She's just a really good girl and I want to take her under my wing and take care of her and also just have good times with ya know. Oh we could have some fun together that's for sure

Everything that I complain about isn't even that ugly. Sometimes things **** a little but I never let it consume me. Some things are simply a riddle and you just move on. You come to know what feelings are the easiest and I've always found being happy quite effortless. Being upset is a chore. Don't stress, There's always more.

I need you like I need my favorite pillow at night when I'm cold and sad and tired and i'm just done with the day. Nothing else matters once I finally find myself in your arms. I'm ******* cliche. I try to say these things differently but I suppose now I know why they say that things are cliche for a reason.

I don't know why some people are the way that they are, but that shouldn't change who you are. Just stay good and lovely and sweet, even when people are mean to you. Anger is no good. I try my best to love people as much as I possibly can. I build you back up in my head. I pick up the jagged pieces of all the sharp words you said. My emotions battle within my head but I always know which ones to throw out. I feel like I heal my wounds by seeing the good in you. I filter out all of the bad and throw it away time and time again. I pretend that all is perfect because I wish it was. Then you come storming in and so quickly break apart every little piece that I just so delicately put back together and most of the time you don't even know it. I'm on the floor trying to put these pieces back together again and I don't know if I can make them fit. I'll figure it out though, I always do, but only because I have to.

I want a cute little house where i dont have to worry about things breaking constantly, where i dont have to worry about fixing everything.

Don't let anybody break that down. You are nice and lovely and sweet and good hearted. Don't let anyone tell you that you're bad or wrong or, ugh, there is so much difference between honesty, constructive criticism, and just being a **** Sometimes people just make things up to feel better about themselves. I have to go back to the four agreements every time. Be impeccable with your word. Don't take anything personally. Don't make assumptions. Always do your best. That's all it comes down to. If you follow these rules every single time. you will never feel bad. I love too many things to hate because of one thing. You don't have to be mean, you don't have to hold grudges, you don't have to say what you think you mean, As long as you understand, that's all that matters.

Tricks, treats, taffy, tutus, timber, and trees. Night time arrives, and the children come out. Ghosts, ghouls, witches, and even bumblebees. Readily running round, rugged, rough route. Mandy and Randy get lots of candy. Meanwhile, mom and dad are at a party. Playing charades and sipping on brandy. By the way, whatever happened to Marty? Mandy says she lost her in the graveyard. Scared, spooked, shivering, she slowly saunters. Marty makes her way to the boulevard. With red bite marks on her neck, she falters. If Marty’s parents had not been toking, They could see it was Jared just joking.
