december, 2008.
you're telling me what love feels like and the way the curve of my cheekbones feels the same way when your lips touch it, and i just want to grab you by the neck and thrust my heart into it because i know yours doesn't jump into your throat for me, like it would if we were in a fiction book.

drowning in something beautiful is still
drowning.
children don't die.
they have all the energy they need
for seventy-eighty-ninety years.
sometimes they die when they're
thirty-forty-fifty years old, but that's
okay, because they're not children
anymore.
i watched my 4 year old brother die when i was seven.
definition of background colours:
the yellow is really a dim, dull yellow. the bright electric blue makes it look bright, however, by comparison, opposed to making the yellow look dim because the blue is brighter. i found it poetic.

adolescente on October 29teehee i wrote a poem about you. more like a poem about your name... (: care to read?
your profile is amazing. i especially was touched by:
"children don't die.
they have all the energy they need
for seventy-eighty-ninety years.
sometimes they die when they're
thirty-forty-fifty years old, but that's
okay, because they're not children
anymore."
you're a lovely poet.
