Mar 2017
have you ever asked yourself where the sun goes to sleep when the moon steals its shine?
what it would be like to be mine?
do you ever twist the the spoon around to make your tongue fit in the dip
do you ever dream about taking random trips
are you amazed by really big ships
and how they stay afloat
and how planes stay in the sky
or the speeding up of time
do you ever miss the one you don't have
and how this wasn't part of the plan
or how being lonely made you find yourself
yet being alone brought your feelings off the shelf
the shelf you dust every now and then
going to classes you wish you didn't attend
but you go cause you're too diligent
and pay attention to boys who are insignificant
but you know you'll find the one that values you
because you do
value the old you as much as the new you
and as much as he used to
as much as he's going to
love you.
