i wish i made you up in my mind, instead of all the ink i spilled over tropes and trophies. youβre much better than their tireless scripts - only to be caught offside like the running red herring. youβre not my cup of tea really either, more like my morning blonde roast with too many substitutions - but new things excite me and make me grow still. and i have been stretching these pages longer, taking up every inch of you that i can muster hoping that i see an ending, and not another oxford comma.
