Bodies and Words.



I was trying to see through my skin the other day;
Running my fingers over scars,
    And covering bruises.
You watched me then
Told me that the little things I always do,
---Just like that---
        Make you love me even more.
I didn't understand.
        I asked you what are the things I do that make you love me.
And you said,

"You're always examining yourself, your skin.
    I can see that you're looking for some kind of satisfaction buried deep down inside your pores. You're a perfectionist.
    But I can promise you, you have definitely reached your goal. You're as perfect as can be."



The only perfect thing I can find
                Is you.


I love you;

I cannot sleep;
I cannot dream tonight.


Title credit to Silverstein.
(the band)
that's the title of one of their songs.



Truetruetrue.
I was told this today by Cole.
Sure, I made it sound prettier but..
He told me that.
I'm falling so hard for him and I'm scared because
I don't know if I'm getting in too deep.

where are you? and i'm so sorry.
