de-flower, de-wind.

I remember thinking,
when younger--
that once that flower died
my whole
world
would change.
That I would walk the halls a new--real!--
woman, not just loved, but admired.
Imagine my surprise when I learned
that wasn't love. Force and heavy hands
≠ anything (they only equal those two, sorry things).
And, (years later, different hands) I remember thinking
for hours and
hours [fearing] the day the string
that held us from ground to kite
would break. Snap.
It didn't. The wind just
died. Stopped the flight.
You can imagine my surprise
when the world didn't end.
I guess that takes a lot more than
flowers and wind.

Starting again.

I'm working on finding myself again. It's working pretty well. I spent a good deal of Thursday's anthropology class writing poetry and lyrics. I wish I could remember where I wrote them down, though :(

Slowly realizing that I need to post the things I write/record without caring who sees them or who will hate/judge me for it.

So here we go again.

I just can't say 'No."

It's like every time I talk to Andy Smart my balls shrink to the size of peanuts.

Horcruxes

Jake: Jesus lives in the heart of every Christian.
Me: Wait, so Jesus split himself up into 10 million Horcruxes?
Jake: Yup. Gotta kill all the Christians before you can even touch Jesus.


Looks like we have work to do.

I just thought that you two were the greatest thing since extendable ears.

It's so hard to
not call him baby.

heart talking to the one
you left.
doesn't make sense.
still
miss
him.

Day 1

and I just want to be tucked in and kissed good night. I know this is the right thing, but God, it's going to be difficult.
