American I'm really just kind of a hopelessly romantic little girl who pretends to be artsy. I like to play my cello and listen to music. Paying with exact change is one of my favorite hobbies.
don't tell me that when we make love it stays in the sheets don't tell me that you fell in love with me between an orange sheet and a green comforter don't you dare say that the only place you love me is on top of a spring mattress if you believe that i only love you with a rubber on your **** then you found the wrong girl because i love you when your knuckles turn white when you roll your palm over the steering wheel and i fall for you every time you get out of your car to play with my puppy instead of walking me to the door i fall in love with you again and again every day when you look at me with puzzle pieces behind your pupils because you cant figure out my patterns and quirks don’t you tell me that we make love in a bed when i fall in love with you every second of the day and don’t you dare tell me that you have to shove your **** in me to feel something for me when i can see you melt each time i say my words out of order and sing the wrong lyrics, with pride so don't you dare tell me that when we make love, we have to be rolling on top of each other when it’s clear to see that we fall in love every single time our eyes accidentally meet from across the room

Maybe it's fate, maybe we're just *****
whats the point of those chemicals the ones that make me flirty and giggly and easy what's the point of the regret that makes me groan the next day and sleep for hours and sad i guess those chemicals make you pretty happy

seratonin: compulsions and obsessions
My pillow smells like sneaking in, past midnight, making you tiptoe to my bed. Your cologne smells like my pillow, the night when all we did was cuddle and tell stories. Blue sweatshirts smell like your cologne that time we drove all the way to Chicago to watch the sunrise. Late night walks smell like your blue sweatshirt on the night we walked 7 miles to the bonfire. Summer smells like late night walks and I go on those all the time. With or without you; You're everywhere I go and you're everything I feel.

I Can't Sleep (without you)
You were there when I stood in front of the mirror and ****** my stomach in, wishing I could make it there sooner. You were there when I didn't eat breakfast, lunch, and threw up my dinner every night. You were there when our lunch table overcrowded and we sat on the floor. It was your face, the one you didn't mean to make, that made me want to stop. Your eyes can't hide a thing, and when you cracked for just two seconds, You made me want to retire my razors, and stop counting calories. You were there when I stopped gagging and gained it all, plus more, back. And you were still there when I stood infront of the mirror and ****** my stomach in, trying hard to lie to myself. And your still here, but now I'm lying to you, my most loyal friend, while I hide in the bathroom with two fingers down my throat.

What are friends for?
The first few sips were the hardest. Between the taste and the guilt, I cringed, running away from my problems the only way I knew how. It took a few more to overcome the burning, expired cough syrup taste of the stolen alcohol from the thermos hidden in a ****** box. I felt my innocence tremble when I called you down. When my heart raced, I had forgotten about it. When you kissed me in my brother's room (my first, just another for you) my innocence broke. It was almost out of view, a tiny dot along the horizon line, the moment your hand ran down my side and I shivered. One last glance in the rear view mirror, and it had vanished, as you rolled on top of me, lying skin to skin. But the insant I grasped reality, understanding what was about to happen, in my big brother's bed, my innocence won, saving me from endless regret and rumors in the halls. The innocence that I had never before cared about, the innocence I was trying to rid myself of, won as it put my hand on your chest, breathed your name, and asked you stop.

Fading
When I watch you smiling candidly on shiny paper laughing, surrounded by the remaints of your friend's cigarette smoke or when I watch you in your old, worn-out-with-love Levi's with the overused Adia's running shoes standing, with me for your shoulders like I was on top of the world I say when I watch you you framed Kodak memory of a father who used to be the handsome hero of my life used to be my best friend I smile through your faded memory I smile

Ya know how sometimes you can eat a certain food for your whole life and never really apreciate it untill you don't have it for like 8 months? Then, when you finally do eat it again, it's like a whole new thing and you never realized how good it was in the first place, even though it had been staring you in the face for years? Well, that's how I fell in love with you- never appreciating how great you were then all at once it hit me, like a suprise summer rainstorm.

Peanutbutter lover
There was one night that we hung out and goofed off, doing absolutely nothing serious. He told me his dream, his number one fantasy was to have *** with a mermaid. I giggled. Hours later, I admitted that I wanted to be Ariel at Disneyland when I grew up. He said 'that's so cute! Our flirting lasted hours. That's the last I've seen of him, but 2 months later I still think about that night every day. And every day, I just think: Kiss the girl.
