the book of my messy thoughts

To Everyone Including Myself

This is for the person I once was, the person I am now, & the person am trying to be; this is for everyone who has ever tried to understand me

There are a few things you need to know

1. I fall in love too easily, too desperately, & much too quicky. I write too many poems about unlimited possibilities.

2. I have always been a little cold-blooded sometimes, you'll have to take me out into the sun & warm me up.

3. I am quiet nostologic on sentimental days, am prone to seek out old Polaroids & purchase expensive typewriters.

4. There must be a reason why I'm overly sensitive, but I'm too delicate to search for it.

5. I am homesick for places I have never been; in other words, I'm missing your breathe against my skin.

6. Sometimes I wish that my bones were static so people would cling to me.

7. One day,I want to plant rosebushes in a garden without being afraid of thorns.

8. In case you were wondering, am an expert at fitting entire futures into just a few days & fluent the subsequent heartache.

9. I still use a theasourous even though I know plently if words & I think that sums me up pretty well"
