Oppose
The year I was born was the year I was torn into two opposing forces who never really loved I don’t know if I will ever really love
I am frozen in ice I am amber coated twice and I am waiting in this cold feeling the numbness in my toes and I think I’m getting a little bit old
I will defrost right in front of you you never really knew the spite I carry and shape into lust into the...

a garden
I want to be a garden
with hair down to my waist
and all of my secrets
strategically placed
I’m not very social
I prefer tea and space
and poetry
perfectly in synch with my
off-balanced grace
I can see it in your face
it’s so clear that I’m
not really like you
in all that I do
I’m untamed and surly
much more like an overgrown garden
nurturing and practical
...
I am tired, mentally and physically
so I’m going to type up old poetry into my computer from my old notebooks, and drink hot chocolate and maybe eat some of the Twilight themed candy my mom sent me for Valentines Day (does she know me at all? jk, I still fully appreciate the thought) and maybe watch old episodes of Buffy or a movie. Because that’s how cool kids spend their saturday nights.
…yep.
Chai, laundry, lunch, mall, women center meeting-thing, party, tennis, work, weekend, la la la. Huzzah for only having one class on fridays.. and maybe I’ll get the package my mom sent! that would make me so happy. She sends the weirdest things.. But yeah. I saw the Fed Ex truck outside, and I was totally creepin’ trying to figure out if they were dropping off our mail.

I never know what I want to post or not. Eh.
……. and I like the way you take drags off your cigarette and I procrastinate because I don’t believe in regret and if I could have anything it would be a really nice tea set to put in a little apartment and live happily there with you

Sonnet XVII, Pablo Neruda
I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz, or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off. I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers; thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance, risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you...

– Marilyn Monroe (via artpixie) (via beezelbee)
Another color altogether.
And again I am sitting here spinning words about you but I’d rather not
so I was thinking I’d just forget about it because you could surprise me but I kind of doubt it
I’d rather focus on the sun the streaming light reminding us that one day we’ll have won everything will come undone and I think it’s beautiful the way the cold air is attracted to the pit of my lungs...
i'll be fine once I get it- i'll be good..

Whatever Control Is
years pass and I am still listening to this sad song it plays on the speakers and rings out and reverbs and I’m still getting it wrong
still spending my nights on the phone with boys who can’t sleep men who can’t sleep still trying to keep myself wherever control is underneath
trying to tell you that we’d never work together but I’m having too much fun to let you go...

a list just because.
- I get cabin fever so easily these days.
- I really wish that there was a coffee shop that delivered coffee. There’s a delivery service for pretty much everything else!
- People are so strange. I feel like I’ve been meeting a lot of them lately, and the more I meet, the more I come to realize that everyone just has their own defects and really strange personalities when it comes...

No, but they’ll test your blood to make sure your iron level is high enough. And it usually is for most people : ). Some iron rich foods are cereal, spinach, beans, leafy-greens, etc.
