There you go judging.
Thought that was your god's job.

You ripped me open like a present on Christmas Day.

Cold hands in a warm bed on a dark night.

The Eskimos and butterflies taught me how to kiss you.

You smell like cinnamon and shampoo and too many tears.

Jumping rope and sticky grins and blacktop promises in chalk.

I would trade my sanity for another kiss with you.

Sharing music with you was like reading you my diary.

Soiled sheets tell stories I could never bear to share.

Sometimes I wonder if you really smoke to **** yourself.

You taste like sin and safety at the same time.

I remember holding your hand, never wanting to let go.

Kiss me like I am oxygen and you're on Mars.

The lines on your hands are rivers, whispering your past.

Good music and elephants and heartbreak remind me of you.

Write. Write until your hand hurt and your brain gives out. This is what makes you happy.

2. When you're 18, a boy is going to kiss you for the very first time, and you're not gonna like it. This is because he is not the right one for you.

3. It's okay to watch 5 episodes of a TV show in one day. These are the days that you will never remember, but they are also the days that will keep you sane.

4. That girl you call your best friend; she's going to betray you. And it is your choice to forgive her or not.

5. Your real best friend is your brother, because he has always had your back, and you will always have his.

6. No matter how sad and lonely and worthless you feel, none of the bad things you think are true. You are worth more than the bad days.

7. Your high school graduation will not be what you want it to be. And you will never be okay with that. But it's okay to not be okay with the way the world works sometimes.

8. The friends you make in your first semester of college will outweigh 90% of the people you have met up until then, and that it absolutely okay.

9. Your mom is better than you have ever given her credit for, and you will realize this more and more each year.

10. Wait for him. Wait for the guy that will sweep you off your feet from the very first glance. Do not settle. Ever.

every passing day
makes it
a little
harder
to breathe.

The innocent
Smile
of your face, darling
is more luminous
than ten thousand suns
Your one smile
is worth
the whole world
Your love
has driven me
insane
And

to tell you
all my pains
all my love
is a gift of love
far too expensive
Your presence
means
everything
