Courteney Feb 2014
If love is an ocean
then you are the waves
and I am drowning
Courteney Jan 2014
I kissed a girl
and her lips tasted like a July summer
but we all know summer fades into fall
and as the leaves fall apart and die
we will too
Courteney Jan 2014
It was too hard to tell you I missed you
so I carved each letter into my skin
and hoped you'd pull up my sleeve
but you never did
I'm tired and I miss her
Courteney Jan 2014
A gentle touch
"My hands are cold"
Sat in the car, secrets told
One quick text
A ride home in the rain
She taught me how to smile again
A lovely message
A warm smile
I probably could stay a while
Coffee date
I'm going to be late
"I'll pick you up, it's on my way"
A kind word
A second or two
"However can I repay you"
A humble thanks for a compliment given
I never knew someone could be so driven
Positivity being something good and pure
Your future is bright, of this I am sure
It's late and I'm tired idk

A purple dress
pretty rhinestones
mothers taking photos on their phones
hugs and kisses
compliments astray
this was meant to be my perfect day
you stepped into view
my heart skipped a beat
I suddenly feel heavy on my feet
the smile you show to the waiting crowd
gets them going, they're getting loud
you seek me out
I'm stuck in a cluster
desperately trying hard to muster
the courage I need to
be honest with you

you look beautiful
I don't even know where this came from

Tick tock goes the clock
another day passed
Tick tock goes the clock
this love will never last
I'm just writing whenever I get an urge to, ignore me by all means

She had bony legs and protruding hips
A hushing whisper on her lips
Those words that, long forgotten or even told
explain that bulimia had her in a choke hold.
idk inner monologue of sorts
