American really all there is to me is a lack of sleep and an excess of love.
i thought i missed him kept asking myself why - it's been long enough, shouldn't i be over him by now? why do i still want him back? plenty of time has passed, & did any of it matter in the first place? turns out it did matter. it's not him i miss, it's how i felt when we were together. i'd never been so happy, ever

i don't remember
i fell like you're slipping out of my grasp, like i'm losing you & you're moving on to bigger & better things i'd say i didn't know what i'd do without you except i know full well that i'd spend my time being miserable & that my life would not be nearly as meaningful or exhilarating as it is with you in it

a poem every teenager has written
you've changed the way i think about things, the way i process the world you've lit a spark that turned into a roaring fire of curiosity, dancing on the same hearth the fire of my imagination danced on when i was a child everything has regained its original allure and i am thirsty for knowledge & understanding

i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry i don't love you i kissed you, but it didn't mean anything i kissed you, but i didn't feel anything we're both a little bit broken in all the wrong ways

fairy lights & my computer screen to illuminate the pages that i'm staining with my thoughts headphones over my ears with music loud enough to drown out the rest of the world a four-poster bed & bedside table making the dreams i had when i was a child come true piles of blankets, pillows & notebooks to make me feel cozy and at home as well as the feeling of being loved sinking into my soul

used, then thrown aside i didn't realize how can i do this? why are there so many of them? i never meant for it to be this way the one that meant the world to me now means nothing i'm fine with them being gone, but i'm not fine with the time that will inevitably come when you are in their place
