forever trying to describe flawless moments with insufficient words
reading through old bits of writings i knew would never amount to anything and oh, what angst

what garbage.
I lose myself to the wind again, blown apart like a dandelion wasted on a wish, and I wonder if you're trying to paint with all my colors

Pocahontas taught me
i punched the elephant in the room square in the face square. in. the. face. with all the force i could muster from the raw vulnerability that pulsed through my veins and the elephant looked right into my eyes baby blues with a blooming iris freeing the seeds of thought that had lay dormant within yes, that elephant looked right into my eyes and laughed.                                        laughed and with its seven foot long trunk it ****** out e   v      e r            y   l                   as                        t                                   d                                       r                                                o                                                         p                                            of feeling                                     emotion                              passion and left me empty. but hey, at least the elephant left.

the elephant in the room
i'm going to spill over one day and i won't be able to stop it it'll all come pouring out down to the very last drop forming a pool of pent up emotions surrounding us and soaking our sneakers and as soon as the last drop falls i'll freak out and run for paper towels but it won't be enough because it all poured out and you soaked it in and that'll be it i'll be          e                  m           p                                            t                                                             y. And i'll never know until it happens whether you'll fill me back up or walk away from the mess part of me wants to know which and the other part of me doesn't want to be left empty.

wet paper towels
I want to be with you. Plain and simple. I feel it all the time The need to tell you about my day Or ask you about yours It's not even that I have much to say, it's just that I want you beside me while I'm studying or when I'm cooking dinner And especially when I wake in the morning Because just your presence Makes everything better Makes everything okay not being together is the only thing that doesn't make sense anymore. could you just be with me? And make it all make sense Because if we don't end up together, I don't know what to make of sense. What of sense. What. I don't think I can turn around from here. Please don't make me turn around.

Cause I don't want to turn around
I could stay in your rib-crushing hugs for a lifetime. It might restrict my breathing, but I wouldn't mind if it meant I'd die in your arms

don't let go
the smile that spread across my face when I received your text makes me nervous and the happy dance I did when you asked me to lunch alarms me i don't wanna crash again

but why
I want to travel the world with you and see the way your eyes light up when you see how beautiful it is, and when you see it I want to feel your hand tighten around mine as if to say are you seeing this, are you! I want to travel the world with you and look back through the pictures only to find that my favorites are the candids of you with another change of scenery in the background. I want to travel the world with you and pinpoint on the map every place I fell in love with you all over again. I want our love story to go as far and wide and deep as this world will allow. let's get lost

wanderlust
you terrify me because I am completely and utterly at your disposal. Do with me what you will, I no longer have control over my longing for you. Do with me what you will, I cannot wonder one second more if this what you want too. give in to me, I'll give in to you
