i've waited for you for a million years
but i've only known you for three thousand six hundred seconds
i can't stop staring at you across this dark loud room
i don't even really know you
i literally just introduced myself and asked for a cigarette
stupid stupid stupid
smoking is shitty for you anyway
maybe i haven't waited for you a million years
maybe you're not the one
but maybe you are
i can't tell if i never talk to you
my brain plays tricks on me
makes me think you're staring at me
are you really though
i mean i have purple hair and a tank top
i'm an emo girl's wet dream
i want to kiss you in the rain
i want the rain to fall on my hair while i kiss you
i want to kiss the rain with you
i want to talk to you and get out of this loud place
so we can go sit in the street and watch the stars and talk softly
i want to look for shapes in clouds with you
i want to find your shape in the clouds and kiss you
the one that got away is a dumb saying
you didn't get away
i was so awkward and shy that i didn't reel you in in the first place
i'm like a reverse freud
but instead of fucking my family
i just fuck myself
internally
but i still want to kiss you
fucks sake come kiss me
i'm like a monkey tanning on the beach
that makes no sense
that's kind of the point
i stare at you across the room and imagine your eyes looking into mine on a dimly lit summer's evening

breathing. {POETRY}
Poetrythis will be a collection of poetry written by me. the title is "breathing." because these poems are about life. the ups and downs, the highs and lows. the good and the bad.
