I am leaving Wattpad....
          	There is a lot of bad stuff posted in here.
          	I will make a new account. My stories are long gone.

It's so funny how other people are getting in a relationship and I am here like alone, depressed, and here feeling all the pain people say about me. I am ok. I don't need people to make me happy. I am depressed and I am proud to be depressed.

This is How He Asks Her Out
          
          Give me your laugh
          Give me the sound
          of a million stellar stars
          singing
          only to me
          and I will never leave 
          you alone.
          
          He says things
          like this 
          to her
          all the time
          on the phone.
          A part of her wants him
          to put it down
          on paper, or email,
          so she can unravel 
          each muscular word.
          The other part
          just wants to laugh
          out loud.
          
          You can’t say things
          like that to me
          while I’m working.
          How is the book coming?
          
          Ahhh yes, the book… 
          I am stuck on the part
          where the woman 
          finally eats 
          after four and a half days
          of mourning her lover.
          I cannot decide whether
          she chooses cantaloupe or
          tangerine for breakfast. 
          Or both.
          What do you think?
          
          You never mix citrus fruits with melons,
          She whispers into the phone.
          Ever. That is what I think.
          
          And since there are
          no coworkers pacing behind him
          no cubicles detaining him,
          he laughs
          out loud.
          
          I gotta run.
          Okay, but just one question, he says.
          Yes, what is it?
          
          Will you give me your laugh.
          Let me dive into your smile
          Swim from one corner of your mouth
          to the other
          Carry it in my smile
          like moonlight
          on the sea?
          
          -KA
