She lays on her left side because she heard from some forgotten dream that everything in the body heals faster that way.
At times like these she likes to think she was born left, because she says she hasn't been right in a long time.
Sometimes I just want
To write all my secrets down
And throw them to sea.
What if it washed up
Right between your sandy feet,
Would you even read?
If you do, sorry
For the major ups and downs,
I don't know myself.
I know what you'll think;
Why should I know you if you
Don't even know you?
I'll tell you why now:
Because I'm going to die
At some point in time.
It doesn't matter
When, how, why- but aren't you
Glad you got to know
me?

Fallen Stars Are Fallen Dreams
I just want to look back at the girl in the mirror
And tell her how lovely she is.
I want to pick her up off of the floor;
Shake her of her tears and self doubt,
And cover her in sunlight.
I want her to see the way her eyes shine
And the way her smile reflects off the glass.
She needs to know what a great little ray of sunshine she is.
I want to hold her hand,
Tell her just because she bites her nails and trips
Doesn't mean she's looked down on.
I want to whisper to her cerebellum
That fearing death is natural
And that yes, she does look good in that outfit.
I want to give her a big hug to chase away the cold
And let her know
I'm an imperfect perfection where my flaws are disturbingly flawless.
I'm a constant contradiction that can't help but make sense.
I'm a fire that never burns and an ocean that never crashes.
I'm a songbird without a voice, but you can't seem to shut me up.
I'm an open book with a password and a rose with no thorns.
I'm the breath of fresh air you take for granted after the storm and I don't mind half the time.
The half I'm silently screaming for recognition like the sun trapped behind dark clouds.
I'm the flower that broke through the pavement and the only star you can see outside your window.
I am the Queen of irony and the Mo
I'm a bird that can't fly
Because I knew how bad you wanted to touch the sunset,
So I clipped off my wings
In an attempt to earn your love.
Did it work,
Or are you too blind from the sun
To see a good thing in front of you?

For Lack of a Better Word
I wish I could wrap up forever in a little bottle and throw it out to the sea
Where it would wash up upon the shore between your feet.
The very fact that someone perfect like you could love me
Is all I could ever need to make my life complete.
Your voice is the sweetest music to my ears,
And your smile is the definition of pure happiness.
Your inviting hug chases away all of my fears
And your gentle kiss destroys all distress.
Although time is continuously going by
And many things are going to change,
Our love will forever be as vast as the sky
And continue to spread out beyond this world's range.
There is no amount of word

Glass Slippers and Fireflies
I wish I was more stable for you,
That I could be the girl like in the movies
We watched together when the fireflies went to bed.
But no matter how hard I try, I still trip
Over the diamond dew sparkling in the sunrise
And laugh when the silence becomes too loud.
Maybe one day I'll get it right and
You'll fall in love with me,
Even with all the cuts from the tight glass slipper.
I wish I was prettier for you,
That my frizzy hair calmed down and flowed
Like the glittering river through your fingers.
But no matter what I try to fix, my eyes will still look like
The mud pies we made together when we were younger
And the hinges hol

Literature
The Art of Overreacting
Its romantically tragic how I can't feel beautiful
Until you tell me so.
What's more tragic is I cant remember the last time you actually told me.
Its so amazingly depressing how late I stay up
Just to catch a single word from you.
What's more depressing is you never seem to drop me a line.
Its almost heartbreaking when I remember back
When we'd talk every day and you'd tell me you loved me all the time.
What breaks my heart is that you've stopped and want me to change.
The worst thing about this is,
I know I'm overreacting.
I know that
I'm clingy
I'm needy
The boy who is afraid of tomorrow
Spends his todays with me
And lends me his nows
When I need them most.
The boy who doesn't know what love is
Gives me his heart and trusts me
To show him what it's like
Because he knows my heart is already his.
We never know what's going to happen,
Things might change, he tells me.
But if I know anything, it's that we are the ones
That make together and forever rhyme.

We managed to fit a whole year into a day. Spring sat nicely between eight o'clock and breakfast time, gently shaking off winter's frost and teasing the sun from the horizon. With the sheets still possessively wrapped around us, we crawled out of bed and looked out the window. April had painted itself across the morning sky with strokes of green, and we wandered downstairs with light footsteps.
In a breath of rain and flower-scented breezes, early summer tipped its hat at noon. Our fingers sticky with maple syrup, we groped hopefully at the memories of cherry pancakes and orange juice. A summer storm brewed past one 'clock, drenching us as t

I love that about you.
you know things other people could only dream about.
{you know secrets of how the rainy days begin and where a rainbow meets the earth.}
you are completely in sync with the sea.
{you stand out there where the waves beat against the shore, blending comfortably into the ocean.}
you are the mystery of my life.

luckily, you're mine...
Her brother was a boy
Who had to shake stardust from his hair
Because his imagination would
Take him to such great heights
(While the ground remained firm under her feet.)
He loved the idea of winter but was a
Summer child through and through
(While she could barely keep up with the change of seasons.)
He was born fearless and saw
The good in everything as he handed out
Forgiveness like bible verses
(While she sat in the back church pews and gathered dust.)
But he never even made it to the hospital
When tragedy struck
On a cold January night and she didn't have
The secrets on how to save a life,
But what she did know was how

these are the secrets we keep pressed against the skin of
your thighs and the confessions we dare not release past the

of our collars and in the rolls of our sleeves; this is the faintest
touch of my teeth leaving their mark on your clavicle and

and private moments during the car ride home; this is you

It's days like these I want to fling myself against a wall, hoping my heart strings will snap. Broken, yet free. I want to dive into the lithium and put my earphones on, to drown the world in lithium too. 'Cuz I wanna go out with a bang.
I laugh and cry when you don't see my bloody fingers. I bet it's a blessing in disguise, if I think hard enough. You ask me why my fingers are dirty and I smile. 'Cuz I'm only a child, lost inside half a lobe of her brain and too ignorant to take the other path.
Despite these things, I'm going to keep running up that hill. I'll keep wailing for the rain clouds and running away from my crippled heart, runni

Shes the Girl Nobody Notices
i.
She was the girl with the burnt orange skin and blonde highlights. Her skin emitted UV rays from too many trips to the tanning bed and she changed her hair color more often than the calendar changed months. She only wanted to fit in but it just made her stand out even more.
ii.
She was the girl who would always use cherry lip-balm because she knew it was his favorite flavor. Her kisses made his knees weak and her will power too so one kiss would turn to two, three, and four. Then a week later she was pregnant and everyone was calling her a whore.
iii.
She was the girl with wings made of scotch-tape and printer paper. She tried to fly
i.
She taught him how to skip rocks across the pond when they were 5. She gently grabbed his hand and showed him how to flick his wrist to make the pebble just skim the surface repeatedly. He claims that was the day she skimmed his heart and started fidgeting her way inside it.
ii.
He taught her how to speak pig latin when they were 8. She never understood it and he never understood her and they both thought the whole thing was pointless, but she wanted to fit in. He told her he liked how she stood out and the fact she wasn't generic and that she didn't need to try and impress anyone. She was only trying to impress him and she already had
Who are you, and what am I?
Remember me? I touched the sky
I flew too hard and burned too fast
Dreams like mine, they just don't last
I touched the sun on feathered limbs
I satisfied my wildest whims
But I burnt out, and I fell down
My body wasn't ever found
But don't remember me for how I failed
I embody all the dreams that've sailed
So who are you, and what am I?
Remember me? I wasn't afraid to fly.
I hung myself today,
paper cranes dangling from the rafters alongside me,
because I was jealous of their wings.
I could never fly to you.
I painted the cement today,
lilac concrete beneath my feet,
because the world doesn't seem bright enough.
It's too dreary without you.
I bruised myself today,
just a small flower, black and blue on my hip,
to remind everyone that I'm not the carefullest girl.
At least my heart is safe with you.
I questioned myself today,
wondered if I was an anachronism, someone who just doesn't belong,
because I've never felt right in my own skin.
I've never questioned that I belong with you.
I spoke to th
Dark road,
harboring darker hearts
beneath accusing streetlamps.
Their minds,
hiding secrets and lust. Shame and love.
The streets are shrouded in darkness,
concrete runways,
for the forgotten and the fearful.
--
Another short skirt disappears into a tinted vehicle.
I wonder if she's at all ashamed,
as she slips bared legs into his car.
I wonder if she's ever wished a better life for herself.
Pause. Rewind.
I pretend that I can see her,
moving back in time,
stilettos to sneakers and skirts to daddy's t-shirts.
When she was still young.
When beauty was a big smile.
And when happiness could be found in a chocolate bar.
