A poet
A writer
   A singer
    A doctor
     An athlete
      An old soul
       A free spirit
       A quiet person
      A loud happy mouth
     An extrovert
    An outgoing girl
   A curious minded individual
  Someone I wish that was more confident

I am someone who is like a great Canadian Lake-
I'm quiet but open in physical form

But really, I'm a deep, dark but beautiful body of something amazing
Only the adventurists know me

I'm water and my blood makes me wine
Sweet but hard to swallow after a while
I am anything and everything in this world

Just let me.

I like the way your laughter reaches further than the room you stand in

You're pretty.

The way your hair flows just as long as our conversations

You're  p r e t t y .

And when your eyes sparkle off of the lakes filled with your sympathy

You are PRETTY.

Especially the way your hand fits in mine

I hope we were pretty.

Like water runs down a dry African River
My body takes in.
Feel the trickle down my empty stomach
Feel the cold fluid run down my cold and barren veins.

I've forgotten the feeling of that.

It felt amazing
I knew I would soon forget once more

Like water dripping onto a dry towel
My body desperately absorbed.
Feel the breath of fresh air
Feel the cool heaven on my throat.

I'll always forget this.
There's a double meaning in the water- do you get it?

beautiful words
over
horrific thoughts?

To tell you the truth
I have to crack off my mask
glued to my face with lies
The truth will show when
I rip off my gloves
itching with false intentions
I'll tear off my shoes
filled to the brim with my secrets
To tell you the truth
I'll have to break myself apart
Can anyone relate?

You're kind of like acne.

The first time I thought you, I was happy
I thought this was the first sign of growing up

You were a big milestone, you know.

After about a year I'd had enough of you
with your clinginess and infectious presence

I knew you had to leave.

My heart wanted you gone
and my body seemed to love you

I just wanted out, but I didn't know how.

Then came the extreme measures
I even had to see an expert

I'm sorry it came to this.

Now you're gone but I still see reminents
of what you did to me

I cover you up everyday.

But then I realize everyone knows what it's like
Everyone knows it's not a big deal

To have a little acne every once in a while.

The way your heart pumps with ecstasy
speechless.
The way your skin itches with the rush of wine
speechless.
My eyes roll around in your engery
speechless.
My head nods with the beat of your soul
speechless.
