I'm sorry for being so quiet the first time we met. Truth is that in my head, I couldn't stop writing poems about your eyes.

2. I still dream about your hands.

4. I can still taste you on my lips.

7. There's a guy in my English class with the same colored eyes as you.

14. Are you thinking of me, too?

No matter how hard I try I will never be good enough.
- Never perfect enough.
- Never satisfying enough.
- Never proud enough.
Were all sad clowns inside because deep down we all know;
- We cant fly.
- We cant catch butterflies on our fingers.
- We cant touch a cloud or visit the sun.
Were never good enough.
Were all broken inside with hardly enough love to eat, yet alone give, but we try & we make the best of it & we do manage, but when will we be good enough?
When will we be pleased with ourselves?
When will I not hate myself deep inside for never being good enough?

i know i'll never bloom to be as lovely
as your favourite forest in the springtime,
but i hope that i can offer you something
that keeps you coming back to visit
when you need some time alone.
Ahh.
I believe
It is a sign
Of a healthy
  Relationship
    When the words
       She loves to hear
          The most no longer
           Are I Love You, but
           ****, girl. You crack me up!
                                 It means the love
                                  Can be taken for
                      As granted as it should.
Laughter
Never is.

Softly, softly
we step into your mind
quiet and reverent
in our solemn intent.
- words I wrote for you
- books I have read
- places I have been, both
with and without you
- a drawing of my happiness
- your words, to encompass
my pain
I find all of these
where you reside, and as always,
as you are, so much
more than I will ever understand.
when I step out, pieces of
you, cotton-soft, cling to
everything I touched you with. Though
I would love nothing
more than to have stepped lightly in
and out, to not leave a mark
to not sully the purity
of what was before me, I know
this is not possible. The shreds
will cling to me, and I
will cling to the shreds, because
even though I would rather take
nothing, change nothing, be
as inconsequential as nothing, circumstances
have led me to the great
and terrible beauty
of the honor to carry with me
pieces of you.
GL, thank you.

You
You are worthless
You are amazing
You are hideous
You are ravishing
You are plain
You are stunning
You are stupid
You are witty
You are fine
You are broken
You are happy
You are choking
You are you
*You are beautiful
You are what you make of yourself. Choose wisely.
