I want to burn every piece of clothing you have ever touched on my body.
I want to forget about all the times the tv was more entrancing than me.
That takes a toll on a teenage girl you know- giving her the mindset that her mind and body are not nearly as interesting as a reality tv show.
I want to go to the top of a mountain and curse your name to the heavens hoping it changes something, anything.
I want to do all of this not because I still have feelings and it's hard; no darling, not at all.
I want to do all of this as a way to cope with my young naitivity and my blind reactions to it all.
I want to go back in time and whisper: "run as fast as you can."
I want to forgive myself for being young and open to love and move on.
