DingDongDangDAMN

It's stupid

I never believed any of it

haha it's Vermont

why should I?

Well I was wrong

It certainly is Vermont,

but I guess it's just like everywhere else

Honestly I thought I didn't care

Honestly i didn't care

Honestly I apparently only care

When someone I care about takes that road

And honestly,

I hurt

just thinking about it

I can't fix you,

I can't fix anyone.

Heck, It probably won't ever make a difference

but it sure as hell makes a difference when I can't stop thinking about it.

When i am with you

i have a blast

and it is fun

you remind me so much of him,

but you are still unique 

and i love that

but when i am with you

it makes me miss him so much more

How do I tell you

how do i say,

it doesn't matter what they think

it's just us

and we want this

How do i say

that i would never ever think of doing something like that to you

i know all to well how it feels

i wouldn't do that

i know all to well how it stings

how do i tell you

i could never love another

ever

when i can't even find the right words

to tell you

how much i  love you

How do i say this

when my brain is crowded with thoughts

thoughts of you

how long i have waited for this,

for us,

how good it feels to be here

how can i tell you this

when i am so distracted

by your eyes, your lips, your hands

intertwined within mine

how can i find the words that are lost?

that words have not yet been found

The ones to be discovered

how do i do that,

when i can think nothing

but of you

For once i had trouble finding to the words to

let you know i was going nowhere

the words to soothe you

or to let you know

i need you

how to i tell you not to worry

when all i can think of are three little words

that have to tell you all of this

in three little words

is all i can think of

is not nearly enough

but all i can think

three little words

i 

love 

you...

and more

One Ordinary Night

A girl

just a girl

a boy

just a boy

just friends

cool ocean breeze

just a breeze

the moon

just the same moon that's there every night

the earth

just the earth that keeps turning

just a small town

an ordinary town

things

just things like they're supposed to be

and suddenly

everything changes

and it is not

one ordinary night

Yourself

It's almost as it we try to hard to be different

that we are really all the same

we are really not ourselves

we are different

but not

we like the same sports... talk about the same things

we try to hard

and especially us girls

we like to gossip,

talk,

some of us more than others

and lately,

i've been finding

that apart from my close girl friends

i have more fun joking 

and laughing 

with the guys

they are so much easier to get along with

(no i actually did NOT just realize this)

It's odd

But I finally understand

What happened

Karma

The Stereotype

It is such a nasty thing

To sort one

into a group

based on one judgement

She's a loser

He's gay

It makes me cringe to think of people that use these

i just can't

and honestly, I don't really care

We're all human,

we all have our differences

Why do we need to organize one more thing

Our race is strange,

how we need everything

to be organized

to be analyzed 

to be known

to be proven

why can't we just let it be?

Audience of One

I simply love every word, every phrase, and every verse in this song.

I can still remember
The words and what they meant
As we etched them with our fingers
In years of wet cement
The days blurred into each other
Though everything seemed clear
We cruised along at half speed 
But then we shifted gears 

We ran like vampires from a thousand burning sons
But even then we should have stayed
But we ran away
Now all my friends gone
Maybe we’ve outgrown all the things that we once loved
Runaway 
But what are we running from ?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Where have they gone ? 

Identities assume us 
As nine and five add up
Synchronizing watches 
To the seconds that we lost
I looked up and saw you
I know that you saw me
We froze but for a moment
In empathy 

I brought down the sky for you but all you did was shrug
You gave my emptiness away 

But you ranaway
Now all my friends gone
Maybe we’ve outgrown all the things that we once loved
Runaway 
But what are we running from ?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Where have they gone ? 

We’re all ok, until the day we’re not
The surface shines, while the inside rots
We raced the sunset and we almost won
We slammed the brakes, but the wheels went on 

We ran away
Now all my friends gone
Maybe we’ve outgrown all the things that we once loved
Runaway 
But what are we running from ?
A show of hands from those in this audience of one
Where have they gone ? 

"I Find it Kind Of Funny, I Find it Kind Of Sad" (That I am in emotional turmoil b/c of one little show about an island....)

How could you do this

i loved you so much

so cute so sweet

i thought you loved her

and what kind of sick and twisted mind would do that

there were easier ways ya know

I hate you

i used to love you

what is wrong with you?

i can't believe you

did you really think it would work out?

Did you think she would fall for that,

and forget what you have done?

Did you think that she would love you?

What did you expect?

Hah, well I'm sure you didn't expect that.

But you know what?

Even though I almost feel bad for you,

you totally deserved that

i mean,

YOU HACKING KILLED HER DAD AND YOU WERE IN COHORTS WITH THE GUY WHO KILLED YOUR MOM

BOTH OF YOUR MOM

that brings me to another topic

dude,

she's your half sister

WHAT HAS GONE WRONG

gah i'm so mad at you

so mad

so sick

so twisted

and yet,

i thought you were more

i loved you

Confrontation With A Cow

I'm jogging, and I'm very tired.

But I keep on going.

I need to do this,

Come on girl.

I start up my ipod.

Second Chance comes on

and my feet are running along

somewhat to the beat

"thump, thump, thump"

and the rain starts coming

down

down

not too heard though

I'm running past southview, past adam's house, and past lovely houses.

I make it up the hill,

it's all down from here

down 

down

and I look to my left as I am running

At the cows,

now trotting

jogging

at their dinner.

I smile.

It's so pretty right here,

and I look at one particular cow

coming closer

and closer

and it stops.

She stands there

staring at me

only a few feet away.

I stop too.

Just looking at her big, brown, beautiful eyes.

A couple seconds and a couple of cars pass

probably wondering what I'm going

Soon I start jogging back,

as does the cow for her meal is waiting.

It was like one of those moments in the movies

where the boy notices the girl

and the girl stares back

confrontation

with true love

except my confrontation

was with a cow

YES

We all struggle

as we grow

and we all learn

what we must know

Now the light is fading,

and everyone is giggling

I wonder if they really know,

that when we try to be different

we're really all the same

Does anyone else notice?

When we break free

we are really

only

kidding ourselves?

Everyone is similar

We care about the same things

Live in the same world

Laugh at the same things

Try to identify us?

We all are all grasping,

looking for a way

variety

but really

we are not

we are not

Drama

is the worst thing that could ever happen to us

and yet,

we all try to be different,

but don't we realize

we are really all the same?

By the light of the fire

I was pretty happy

and i just lied down in the grass

Hoping someone would join me

no one did

but it was fine

i looked on at my friends around the campfire

the music played again and again in my head

i looked at you

having so much fun

not a care in the world

you were an artist right then

taking pictures of the fire

and your laugh echoed

right through my hears

a sacred 

chime of bells to me

And i just stared at you

thinking

how happy i am

how happy you are

and i stared to sing out loud

"i don't see what anyone can see"

well that's certainly true i thought

as the next line formed in my mouth

"in anyone else"

"but you"

and you had no idea

what i was thinking right then

but

you probably could 

have

guessed.

<3

You also pointed out how i often complain about leaving

it's true

i don't complain too often i hope

but if i do

it's usually a pretty good reason

and then reason is

i was so happy right there

with you

with everyone

why would i want to leave that?

because  i know as soon as i do

my heart begins to yearn for you again

and i want to live in that moment

over and over

i want to stay in that happy place for ever

so if i complain about leaving,

i'm sorry

but i want 

to 

stay

with

you

To Life and Jazz

Oh yeah,

She's real smooth

We sing and we dance

We like to watch the princess bride

And no one ever comes inbetween

To the one who's always there

always listening

and always there for me

your silly and i love it

and i'm silly and you put up with it

and we are great stalker buddies

I will never forget you

I want to write about her,

the one who is always on my side

always there for advice

and to dance in the fog

I'm going to say

that you're the only person 

who has ever done those crazy things with me

running over to the elementary school

right before tech ed?

Crazy

And you,

with your perfect balance

and your smile

everything you do is just

cool

There is not one person

who you can't make laugh

And when I write about you my dear,

only good things come to mind

and one of them is windshield wipers

and cheetos.

Life with you back,

should be just as fun as it was before

Only in the evening,

and only then.

With her,

life is spazztic

and everything is funny

To look at you

is to look at someone whom i wish i saw

everyday

there is not a day that goes by

without some thought of you

and most often,

it is followed by some random outburst of laughter 

and a thoughtful loving smile upon my face

And to you,

this year has been great

i hope that more memories are to come

and i hope you never mess up that wonderful title board.

You are one of the most fantastic people i've ever met.

You act like you're not scared of anything

and you may not be

except for those darn spiders

I admire you so much

You have one of the greatest outlooks on life

I don't have a whole lot to say to you

i hope you do well next year in mmu

and i really hope you stop hitting on me in band.

I hope you two turn out well

it just works to well

and you are great

you are un-shatterable

you may not think so,

but it's true

and that voice is fantastic

you can do anything

On note you play

and my smile appears

you hair

is awesome

and your jokes

are funny

keep being you

because you are great

Sometimes Fairy-Tales Suck

So you've all seen or read about it:

the girl next door who falls in love with the guy

but the guy is dating some hot chik.

right?

Then they guy eventually realizes he's in love with the girl next door.

Lovely.

But what about the hot chik?

What if she was really nice?

What if she really loved that guy?

AND

what about the girl next door?

What if she's really whiny and annoying?

I kinda feel bad for the really hot chik.

She just got played.

No one really knows

where the rain will fall

No one really knows

what note will be played

No one really knows

where the coin will land

No one really knows

what's happening next.

No I cannot write a poem

No, I can't write a poem.

I will not write a poem.

I do not know how to write a poem. 

If I were to write a poem,

It would not be a very good poem

because some poems

can't be copied

Yay

I love friendship.

It is a wonderful thing.

Inspired By A BlogPost Comment

The story has to be different,

I'm changing it now.

This is the way it really is.

And that ways is,

Kings may love queens,

But if you want to be a hacking queen,

act like it.

Be a queen.

Find a King.

Who's stopping you?

if we're going to go around calling people serving maids,

then the serving maids might as well rebel against that stereotype

and become a queen themselves.

Then we could all have a little queen partay.

Hurray.

The clashing

I hate groups.

Actually let me rephrase that,

I hate when people categorize themselves and others into groups

I have the whole social status.

And though I know I apart of it,

I despise it.

I hate when other people live by it.

I hate when people who don't know each other decide they don't like each other.

I like being everywhere.

It's where I belong.

But when you get everyone  together, and mix in a bunch of people you don't know,

I hate how they're quick to judge.

Something wasn't right today

It was the social awkwardness of when you happen to be sitting next to the love birds.

Haha,

I'm used to that.

I been in both positions there.

It was the clashing.

And I don't usually feel it.

But today,

I totally felt it.

And I don't like it.

Why So Serious?

Every now and then,

I try to take a step back

and analyze stuff.

I go back and reread

over

and over

and over again

think

and rethink

about stuff that I've thought about

and stuff that I , and others, have said.

And if you really think about it,

we blow a lot of things out of proportion

I think that a lot of the stuff teenagers freak out about,

or care so much about,

really isn't that exciting..

and the stuff adults stress over?

pshhh

not so bad.

Just look at it in perspective

things could be worse.

Sometimes,

everyone just needs to take a deep breath,

think about life,

step back,

and chill out.

I know I need to do so.

The Silence I've Been Searching For

Maybe when the time is right,

the best thing to do is say nothing.

To speak silence.

When you don't open your mouth,

the wrong words don't come out.

I've been searching for the right ones,

you bet I have,

more than just an "I love you."

More than just "You are everything I dream and look forward too"

More than saying "I've missed you"

I struggle to know if you feel as strongly as I do.

It's hard to tell sometimes.

And that's all right,

I tend to talk more anyways.

But I've realized that I know you love me,

and you haven't needed to say a word.

Maybe that's the kind of communication I've been looking for...

Maybe I need to speak silence to tell you how much you mean to me.

For Gunner

Dear Gunner,

I really don't know you.

And that's too bad cause you seem all right.

Anyways,

I got mad you a while ago.

Which was kinda stupid b/c i don't really know you.

I was just sticking up for hannah, ya know. 

Friends.

And, well, it seems like you guys are a-okay now

And btw that's really not me. I NEVER get mad at people,

I don't think I've ever told anyone off like that in my life.

That's probably why it sucked so bad =)

So I really hope you don't hate me or anything cause that would stink.

I hate when people hate people.

So I'm sorry.

-Erica L. R.

Where all the world listens

She is ready to take on the world.

It's all at her finger tips, 

and at her signal, all will sing out.

The keys are ivory and her fingers float, 

waiting, right above them.

Ready for the world to hear, ready to unleash the beauty that all are waiting for.

This is her time,

this is the time where when she plays, and all the world listens.

And oh, how beautiful it sounds.

The Dance

Well the dance was interesting.

I must say my favorite part was Tyler.

Alaina: Tyler you HAVE to dance with Erica! Come on!

(Erica laughs hysterically)

Tyler: No!

Alaina: Yes Tyler! Do it!

Tyler: (the truth comes out) I DON'T WANT JACOB TO WHOP MY BUTT! (a kind use of words there...)

I saw a lot of my friends dancing. It made me very happy to see this cause I'm a sucker for those kinds of things. But I also went spinning back so many times to Cobb, whom Mr. Carbone wouldn't let come. Honestly, that was sad, and I missed him so much. I really can't wait until high school. 

And for the first time,

Everything came out.

To a friend I can trust upon whenever I need to.

We just dished to each other,

and it turns out we were both in, well, similar situations.

But her's was way more awesome =)

It felt good. I liked that. (haha that's what she said.. sorry can't help it)

ANNNNNNDDDDD!

OLIVIA was only the best date EVER! (DON'T TELL)

and i had a BLAST dancing with her (and matt)

And thank you Nicole, for helping me ask Ms. Fary to dance with me. That was one of the sickest things ever. I love that"beatnik" move.

All in all,

twas fun.

Borderline Officially Broken

That reassurance that I can always tell you something,

how I'm feeling,

Even if I'm mad,

and you won't get angry, or upset. 

You'd fix it.

You make yourself "better"

Just to make me happy.

For me.

I really don't think you can get better.

I mean you've done a lot of things I haven't liked.

Said things I wished you didn't mean and that you hadn't said.

But you've done so much more,

that I can't ask for that.

I was paranoid for a while.

I was worried.

Then I got better,

but never truly recovered.

I'm stronger now,

and on top of that,

I have my confidence back.

Officially. 

As of now.

It was almost as I got that feeling that you were older, cooler than me 

which I get for a lot of older people.

But not you,

that's why I was initially attracted to you,

you made me feel comfortable.

For some reason it came back just a little bit.

Last night,

at dinner,

we talked.

And talked and talked, and talked.

And it broke that border.

I laughed so hard, smiled so much,

my mouth is still sore.

And the way you said "I love you" for the unknowth (is that even a word?)  time,

it was different,

almost more sincere. 

And don't take it that I've never thought that you weren't sincere,

but that way you said it was so much more passionate...

so much more in general

It was something I've been trying to say for months.

Just like that.

I won't get into many more mushy details.

But I love the way you make me laugh,

I love the way you do everything.

I love you

and I'm so happy right now,

and looking forward to so much (road trip! haha...)

I'd Never Have Thought

I never thought I'd be bored of middle school

Last year I couldn't imagine 8th grade at all

I loved my school and I loved 7th grade

Well that's all changed.

I don't know exactly what it is

Maybe I miss those who are gone

More than I thought I would

Maybe I just don't like the curriculum

Maybe I'm not liking this 7th grade drama

Maybe I just miss hanging out with Ian and Griffin so much

Just forgetting everything and laughing about stuff that is really stupid

All I know is that I can't wait until high school

You're The Only One I Believe In

Look through this mist

forget the words that they said

forget the words that you've said

Remember that you're beautiful

Always 

it doesn't matter who's prettier

and who thinks that

You have to be confident in yourself

Cause if someone says

"you're the only one for me, I love you"

They mean it

Life is young right now

So use up as much of it you can

when your not cleaning the bathroom and thinking about whomever you think about

Go

life is yours

stop worrying whether you look like an idiot or not

You're you

and your great.

And you know what?

They love you.

So Maybe No One Won... That's Life

Just two girls

The story of two girls

Best friends,

always and always

through thick and thin,

Boys and drama,

Tears and the crying

Never was one mad at the other

Never did one regret their friendship

It seemed like so much,

but really,

it was just

a blip in a lifetime

to be forgotten soon.

And there ya have it.

The End.

Okay so I totally feel like deleting that post cause i have mood issues

but I'm not going to.

i feel i should keep it

but i guess i have a different point of view now

like that you just don't want to hurt me again?

maybe?

idk.

it makes sense now.

and i'm not mad.

And guess what tiv?

He was happy!

and he joked around!

And he was just the random funny kid i've always known

and i asked him if he was happy and he's like

"of course!"

maybe i've been unhappy

and now that i think about it,

i think i've just been less of myself

more boring

and uneventful

maybe it's both of us!

DARN PUBERTY!!!!!

DARN PMS!!!

haha

anyways

i'm happy now

and i had good phone convo with him

and he's happy,

so i'm happy.

Life is Phenomenal.

Be excellent to yourself!

Okay so you love me a whole hacking lot right?

then how come your afraid of falling back in love with her through email?

Is our relationship BORING you that much?

what the heck is wrong?

Why are you doing this?

If you have such potential of loving HER

then how come your hiding behind ME?

huh?

and you know what?

This won't even matter to you

Because you don't bother to go on and even check your email let alone your blog anymore

So I'm going to be harsh here because as soon as i start talking to you

I'll go all mushy and sympathetic

I tired of it

I just want it to go away

Why 

Why do you do that?

Why did you ever do it in the first place?

She...

She...

GOD BOY MAKE UP YOUR HACKING MIND

She has enough problems

without yours too

Can't you just be friends?

And if you love her so much,

then break up with me.

Honestly.

Because it would hurt less for you to do that

than for you to say something like that again to someone else.

Really.

Man,

I have issues.

I totally agree with Tiv

Am I boring you?

What's happened?

Why do you look like you're not happy anymore?

Have I done something wrong?

Why do you have nothing more to say,

to offer?

How come you never email me?

How come you never respond?

How come we have run out of things to say?

How come I never hear you say anything that makes my heart leap anymore?

What's going on?

I love you to death,

I don't love you any less,

but I want to make you as happy as possible,

and I think I'm failing.

Something went wrong

between here and there.

What was it?

Dear Friend,

Never once have we fought

That one time doesn't count

Never once have we hesitated to call

We practically live at each other houses

"The only one for me is you,

and you for me"

Nothing has ever really changed between us

We both have our faults

But we were made for each other

Like peas in a pod

We don't always have to be together

But we are the best when we are

We are the happiest

I've never wanted to not be with you

We have changed and grown old together

Different people,

but we have come so far, for so long

and we are the same on the inside

meant for each other

So this one's for you Tiv

And So It Goes, And So It Goes

Dear My Dear,

We have come so far

Have I changed?

Have you changed?

This life has changed

Things are different

But always the same

Look at that flower up ahead

Once wilted and dry

Now Blossoming with new life

We have grow older,

together,

but somethings will never change...

To You,

you probably know who you are

I feel really bad about writing that

but I didn't like what you wrote.

I'm sorry.

Actually I'm not.

I don't know...

I'm not usually like that

but don't diss people like that,

That is one thing I hate

The contra dance was awesome.

Next time I'm getting all of my friends to go b/c it was so much fun.

I know I sound like such a nerd and I never thought I would be into these things.

But I totally am.

I danced with all of these random people,

so older, some younger,

some I knew

like Alisa, cobb's sis

and Cassidy's little sisters.

Then I danced with Alaina and Maddy 

and then there was this really smelly guy 

who Alaina had to dance with like three times.

(haha)

AND THEN

(here comes the funniest part)

I saw Griffin, Matt, Joe, Tyler, Ian , Cassidy, and Michael all not dancing.

So I went up to Tyler and told him he was going to be my partner for the next dance.

At the next song,

I went up to him,

and he was refusing to come.

So I took him by the arm,

and dragged him halfway across the cafeteria,

him trying to wriggle free,

and me just pulling along telling him he was going to dance.

I'm a lot stronger than Tyler.

And he danced.

It was hilarious!

I spent so much time trying to get him on the dance floor that we missed the directions and totally improved almost the whole way down the line.

It was funny.

And griffin and joe joined in too so that was fun.

And Ms. Fary's kid kept out bidding my mom on some plush thing Molly mad and he hacking won it!

Darn Cooper!

haha so anyways I had fun.

Just thought I'd let everyone know.

What I really want:

1. A sleepover with some of my closest friends

2. to sing karaoke

3. To have a date to the dance again

4. To be happier and spazzier and do all the things I did last year

5. To have funnier phone convos

6. to be more fun

7. A light and dark green shirt and a blue sweater

She ran,

and she ran,

and she ran,

and she didn't stop running until she got there.

THE END.

A Wish For Something Different

Sometimes I wish I could write something that has absolutely no meaning.

Because when I do try to write something powerful and metaphorical, 

It turns out just like everyone else's story.

I want my blog to be different.

Not the same.

I want to write something simple like

"the cow jumped over the moon"

or

"Jack and Jill ran up the hill"

etc, etc, etc.

If only, if only I was given the gift to write.

Sadly,

I wasn't.

The Truths of Me

It's true,

sometimes I get too needy,

too dramatic,

too freaked out and sad over nothing.

Sometimes I wish too hard,

hope too much,

and think all my dreams will come true.

Then reality comes crashing down.

It's true,

sometimes I miss the things I can not have too much,

I have to let things go,

and accept life for what it is.

Sometimes I forget that.

It's a good thing I have all of my friends to remind me!

Life is for us to have fun,

to learn,

and to explore what we do not know.

To ask questions,

and be curious,

to laugh,

and to be silly.

There's no time to waste being tired and depressed over something that happened yesterday.

Or just because you feel like it.

So get your rest and eat your breakfast!

Do you ever annoy yourself?

My Custom Disease

I used to see you everyday,

Now I get excited if you email me during the weekday.

And now when I see you,

it's a living dream.

But the next day,

it's like a disease,

where I need more of what I just had,

an addiction.

An when I have so much fun,

and laugh so hard I cry with all my friends,

I ache for more the next day.

It's like the "Day After Disease"

Custom just for me!

Whoopee!!

Don't Fail Yourself

It hurts to disappoint others

when you don't do what is expected

When you fail the ones you love.

But I think it's almost ten times worse,

to fail yourself.

To let yourself go,

or to not reach a goal.

To hurt yourself,

or to be disappointed in something that you thought was going well.

To be so sure,

of something,

and when it does not work out,

boom,

crash,

bam,

it's just like a knife to the heart.

It really stinks,

ya know?

What Inspires You?

Live Young Die Fast

Live young

die fast.

No one,

will last.

So sit back and relax

enjoy the crash,

you're fading to black 

and you're gone.

Live young

die fast.

Liv-yo Moments

Always there for me,

always cheerful when I need her.

And even when she's having a bad day,

Liv-yo is there.

And cracking jokes.

I remember when we were little,

and I would stay home sick.

Probably a sore throat.

And she would call,

as soon as she got home,

to make sure I was okay.

Deep panic in her voice,

and a sigh of relief when I told her I was fine.

(And a big hug the next day when I came back)

I remember trying to make ice cream out of whipped cream.

That honey lemon flavor?

Disgusting.

But her mom drank/ate it anyways.

We'd watch The Princess Bride

every single time I came over.

Which was probably  every other weekend.

I've almost memorized that movie.

We once watched the parent trap too, 

and that night,

I drank their whole gallon of milk.

We once came up with a whole presentation 

to convince her parents that she should have a turtle.

We tried to find the smallest one possible,

which, I believe, turned out to be some poisonous endangered one from Africa or something.

Oops.

I remember filming.

And filming non-stop.

"Buy it today! You won't have to pay... (much)"

We used to wash the cars.

I think it was to earn money.

But we had great times and always got soaked.

The only fight we've ever had,

was over a checkers game.

Maddy was helping Liv cheat.

And then she won.

And I got mad and walked away.

Then,

5 minutes later,

We all played.

I'm not sure how... but it worked.

And our 4th grade teacher loved us.

We were the first ones done with our state reports, and the only ones to go out to recess.

That was  a great recess.

Maurice used to hire us to do jobs for him.

I only remember eating his chocolate though...

sorry Maurice.

Liv-yo and I have had great times.

And so many countless times she haas been there to make me feel better.

I hope I have done the same for her.

Liv-yo,

your insanity keeps me sane.

(Almost)

thanks buddy=)

NOTYOUR NACHO!

I love the Twilight series.

Read them last year,

just saw the movie,

and everything in that book makes you want to live it.

But can't we live it,

I mean the head over heels in love fairy tale,

without being a vampire?

Everyone's obsessed with vampires and how they wish those books were real.

You want them to be real?

Go out looking for someone you could love.

And there's your fairy tale.

Oh and guess what?

They could actually be human too.

*GASP!*

I know right?

BIG shocker.

And Her Heart Grew Three Sizes That Day...

What we have,

still glows

a fiery red.

It glistens in the moonlight,

a blaze of glory.

What I want,

when you are gone,

is you.

That is all.

This year,

is not made of much,

when you are not with me.

Social studies

bores me,

and I take no interest in science.

I look forward 

to you.

Always have,

always will.

And I don't think I knew,

last year,

how much,

I love you.

This year,

I know.

I've grown to realize,

most things I look forward to,

talk about,

and think about,

are you.

I am constantly reminded 

of our old times,

of our old memories.

I love you,

and I know now more than I ever have baby.
