Thinking that someone loves you is better than nothing, but what people don't realize is that it was all pokes at jokes and I bet he smokes, or knows I do and doesn't like the smell, or the way I breathe out, or how the rings come from my mouth and are never on my fingers. And I have paper cuts on those same fingers that want to be in your hair, and your body, (all of it), and I hope you want them there, because that's exactly where they'll be if we ever meet. The dirt buried in my prints will leave marks on you like a million hands and feet, drenched in paint and smeared over your temple. I bet you don't care what I look like, or that I have a Van Gough pin, or that people like to write my name. I'm glad you like to listen, and that you're smooth with words, so I can fall asleep to the sound of your golden text. I never thought I would like an arial view, or that I would fall in love with strings of it all laced together into a perfect fabric, (or web). I hope that you're not allergic to sound, or jelly beans, because I want to see you cry and smile at the same time.

Pints Among Pounds
