she wasn't beautiful
like all of those girls in the magazines
or, the number that was constantly on her mind
frankly, she wasn't beautiful in a lot of ways
but, she was beautiful in the was that the ocean kisses the shore time and time again, or
in the way the sun shines on the moon in its darkest of times
or how an owl questions who when the answer was right in front of him
she wasn't beautiful in posture or talent but in what she was

maybe you'll never love me or
maybe the future won't come one day
and we'll all be stuck here wondering what to do
lost in the frozen time
and I'll be here wondering
about you.

here's to the teenage years:
the lies, laughs and heartbreaks.

i don't usually have a way with words
but when it comes to you
i feel at home
my words become clear
and i hope you hear them
because they're
i
love
you

how can I ignore words
when they could mean so much to one person?
the sentences thought out so perfectly
just to capture their emotions
so why
would I want to ignore someone's words that mean
so much to them

we're living in forever.
this is the time that the people before us
could have never have known

animals know when its their time to go
I just hope I'm the same way.
