The fading sunlight strikes the windows
The bus cocoons me safely,
Inside
As we rocket to our destination,
I am struck by the mystery
Of the beautiful odds
Of our luck to exist,
As we are, within this world
To be able to experience the snow, frost, and leaves
It is a wondrous mystery

And I do not know
What other way
I'd possibly like to have it

Before you fall in love with someone else
You must first
Fall in love with yourself

Fall in love with the way you snort when you laugh,
With the curve of your hips,
The gentle arc of your thighs,
How harshly your muscles stand out when you flex

Fall in love with yourself.
run your hands up and down your body,
Feeling every curve and dip
Fall in love with your knobby knees and dry elbows,
Your puns, your smile, your red ears.

Fall in love with yourself,
And then,
Only then,
Will you truly be able to love someone else

I put on some water just now,
To make tea
And I thought
Of the day when you brought me hot chocolate
I can't believe I ever forgot that
You do the smallest nice things,
Or I guess you did
Because we're not friends anymore
But you did the smallest nice things
So small that one could easily miss them
And I,
I miss them
I miss you
So much

I'd like to bring you tea on Monday
But unfortunately we can't even look at each other

I miss your face
Your myriad of freckles
Dusting your nose and cheeks and lips
I miss how your face lights up when you laugh,
Impossibly happy
I miss the sparkle in your eyes,
Your smug grin
I get these glances,
These quick snippets,
But nobody knows how much I'd give to
Study your face in depth again
I miss your astounding beauty and all the little details that make you so
Breathtaking
I just miss you
A lot
Even though you're a ****** ******* person

I just don't understand how someone so
Heavenly Beautiful
Can be so judgmental and hurtful,
Lashing out like a cornered animal
I miss you, but ******* I hate how mean you were to me
And all I did was try to be happy,
And be myself

I'm so, so sorry that offended you so

I just want you to forgive me

i really do
******* aly
but i miss you

A pastel colored sky,
Rising up and painting the frost on my windows
A gentle kiss of color;
It's too early yet for the striking reds and oranges of the sun
And so we only have pink,
Pink and light, light blue

A gentleness fills my soul at the sight
The clouds are so soft I could almost -touch- them

Letting go
It hurts
It hurts more than anything I've ever done
But there are some things that I just
Cannot fix,
No matter how much I might want to

I was pouring so much of myself into you,
Trying to fill you up
But you were a bucket
Not a bucket that had a hole,
No
But a bucket without a bottom.
And there would just never be enough of me to fill you.
The world would flood before I could fix you

I'm sorry
But I can't be the only one fixing you
You have to fix you, too.

Scrubbing your locker combo
From my
Skin
Don't want to
Remember you, nope
I didn't want it to end like
This
But I knew it would

Me, walking away with a chunk torn from my soul,
And you, sobbing while your heart breaks
As you desperately
Try to stop me from leaving
But you're so young
And since I'm the older one
I suppose that
I have to do the best thing for us

I'm so sorry
I never wanted to break your heart.
