i want to bake a strawberry pie. i want to blend sugar in the sunlight. i want to craft stories out of my imagination. i want to waltz under stars and tango through the heat of the beach. i want to read. i want to learn. i want to grow. i want to wake up early in the morning and watch the sunrise from my roof. i want to go to bed with clean sheets and watching Netflix with you. i want to bake a strawberry pie. i want to stroll down a boardwalk. i want to smile at the sun. i want to run. i want to swim in the ocean. i want to tan on sand and cleanse myself in outdoor showers and eat icepops before dinner. i want to go back to the city. i want to bake a strawberry pie.

summer thoughts
you may be my number two but I still can't believe you wanted me to be one of your lucky girls. It was barely three days before you said you'd wanted me for five months. Now in four days I have to leave you three thousand miles away. Is it too soon for you to be my one?

but those words should be free
most of her works are serenades to miracles that occur daily

conflicted
there's a feeling i succumb to it's murky dark straight pain sometimes its fleeting feeling stays in from the rain i comfort it and welcome provide cookies and hot tea it makes itself a home here deep inside of me the murky dark straight pain the one i come to be

welcome strangers
did you know my heart for certain? when you said you fell in love or only did you see the parts of me that i let visible through late night car drives lunch conversations blue text message and white crumpled bed sheets
