dear luke,
today is my birthday. i'm 18 now. your birthday was over the summer. you'll be 19 in july. (author: dnfnfnjrjgngngtj that just occurred to me IM SORRY) i spent my birthday today in the library, you used to love to tease me for spending so much time there. i would just kiss you to shut up. and to kiss you.
mom got me a car. and a parking space. now i don't have to walk past your red convertible and think about making out with you in the backseat, i can focus on my own car, and my own ways. i think this car may metaphorically be a fresh start for me. a luke free start for me.
