refuge is a very big word.
refuge is the word for people in dire need of help, in need of shelter, need of ones safe haven.
i wonder if i was ever a refuge for somebody.
i know i'm a refugee though, i need that light amongst my dark world.
maybe, gabe, when you looked into my eyes, you knew that. you saw everything no one bothered to glance at.
boy, have you realized?
deciding with that look in your eyes, i hope you did. no, wait- i know you did.
"hey avery."
"hey jude, kidding."
"don't be afraid."
"haha, that's the wrong lyrics."
"i'm not even singing."
my love, are you trying to be a hero? are you trying to be a refuge? are you trying to fix me?
i know that you know.
i know that you know about what i know.
my gabe, are you trying to fix broken shards of glass? are you trying the impossible?
i'm infatuated by you- and i have memorized what move you make and it's meaning. what your eyes say and think, you're like a full clear wine glass, elegant yet transparent.
why are you picking up the shattered reminders of what used to be? can't you see oh, my dear?
i'm broken and thats what i'll ever be.
Sincere and Broken,
The little shattered girl.

Poetry"maybe it was you and i, not we and us." in which she falls inlove, and she gets tricked by the illusions and thoughts of it. one sick delusional story, without true love.
