He believes in patterns and numbers;
That everything is calculated
From the way a person walk
To the waves of the ocean
Even if it seemed random
It actually isn't
But then he looked at me and said
"maybe not everything"
He laughs and turns around
Trying to balance himself
On the big rocks by the seashore
"You contradict my beliefs
And maybe that's why I love you
Because you're beyond the rules"
I told him that maybe
Just maybe, not everything is calculated
And that it has to be a mystery

Because till this day
I never fully understood him
And it led to more questions
Than answers

You make me happy
And you make me sad
Because you're too good to be true
But you are anyway
I don't know how you do it
You're perfect for me
And it is not infatuation
Because I see your flaws
But I like(love) you anyway
You're unattainable
It's like reaching for the stars
Because how can someone like you
Fall in love with someone like me
You're the kind of person
Who I don't want to lose
So maybe just friends
Is easier than lovers
And that's why you make me sad
Because all I can ever be to you
Is friends
Even if I want something more
But that is all I deserve

Every passing year
My memory grows weaker
But I don't want that
Because I know that
One day I will forget
What exactly the colour
Of your eyes are
Or the little things
That you always do
Which I grew to love
So I try to write
And write with all my might
Every detail,
Every word
But still
The memories are
Starting to to slip away
From my grasp

Just because the moon
Shines brightly at night
It doesn't mean that
The moon doesn't have
A dark side, casted away
From the shadow of it's craters

How are you?
I miss you
I hope you're doing fine
I'm a lost cause without you
Darling, don't leave
I'm sorry
One more chance?
I love you

You
You've been on my mind
Once
Because you never left

Whenever and wherever
I just suddenly
Remember you

The way your skin
Feels, as you lean on me
Or the way you breathe
Deeply as if it was your last

The way your eyes twinkle
And your lips curves
As you smile and talk about
The things that you love

Every thought or every action
I make
Makes me think of you
As if every path
I take will always lead
Back to you

And I just love
Being with you
Because you make me forget
All the horrible things
As if they don't exist

How would I know
If this is love?

Thigh gaps
Empty stomach
Skin and bones
This are all the things
We aim as girls
Because society's definition
of "pretty" is
Skinny and petite
But since when
Does hollow space
Count as "beauty"
