You saw sunshine in me when I saw complete darkness

It's actually not hard to do.
You grin at the way her hands are shaking to get tot a pen and paper.
You think is adorable how she only uses one certain type of pen, and only pen- no pencil for this writer.
You hate to see her at a loss for words because she always has words, even when everything else fails her.
You want to be the only one to leave her speechless
and the only one to make her write like mad.
You stick around long enough and you notice that she writes in the same pen that she uses to write poem, she uses to write on herself, different word and phrases she wants to remember.
You love the way her eyes light up when she comes up with the perfect ten words to describe something.
You think that she is the one who dreams and writes all that she remembers.

A warning for you, if you do fall in love wit a poet,
Remember that she is human, just like you.
Remember that she is writing for a reason.
Remember that if you break her heart,
You could, possibly break the very part of her that writes and it could Be days or weeks or months before she starts to write again.
And she will write only love and heartbreak poems,
Not the ones you remember about the trees or clouds or how your eyes get a gleam in them when you smile.

Just don't break her heart.

Can I get any slack?
I do so much for this family,
And that's what I get in return??
No, I'm not like my brother.
But you still treat us sorta kinda the same?
I know what I need to do.
I know what my job is.
Do you even know half of the crap I deal with on a daily basis?
I don't need it at home too.
I can't even get a break???
You asked me if I was alright?
Do you even care?
What if I wasn't?
What then??
Do you even know me anymore???

So you want to make me?
A moody?
Ok, here's what you do.

Have a caring soul.
Tear that soul's heart to pieces.
Then try to reassemble those parts.
If you are successful, put that heart inside of a body that is fat, too tall. and not noticed by anyone.

There you have a moody.
Caitlin Moody.
Just me right now.. Maybe I'll write a different one, later..

I hate my life.
I can say that honestly.
Nothing goes right for me..
Not love, Not family,
Nothing.

I hate it.
I'm avoiding my family right now.. They just don't get it.
