Late Night Outdoor Skating


The moon knows our names tonight
And the stars are removing their masks
And breaking through the streelights
To give us their blessing.

You keep me guessing.

It’s a line but it’s dotted.
I’m jumping over spaces and
Praying that my hand will find yours
On the other side.

On the ice as we slide,

Will you wait for me?
As I fall,
I’ll get stuck on the floor.
Will you leave me there?

I think you’d agree,
You’d fall with me.

My back kisses the ice,
But I don’t feel cold;
It’s as if for the first time,
I feel alive.

Perhaps because it’s you I’m beside.

Words prevail
And jump through the dark,
Yours land straight in my heart
And hit their mark.

Can’t you feel the spark?

You scream perfection,
I whisper my secret.
You reply with words
I find to good to be true,

“I love you, too.”

I love this one the most.

Beware ;

I'm not afraid to ask stupid questions,
I love flowers,
I get left out sometimes,
I sing all day,
I'm afraid of losing my memory,
I create new identities for myself,
I'm a straight edge,
I cut up magazines,
I love doing crafts,
I like big teddy bears,
I invented the Mutual Palm Tickle with Morgan,
I try to see the beauty in everything,
I need acoustic songs,
I don't wear expensive clothes,
I like rainy days,
I'm freaked by fish and toes,
I don't wear lots of makeup,
I never make my bed,
I laugh really easily,
I love nail polish,
I change my mind a lot,
I don't take myself very seriously,
I like buttons,
I live by quotes,
I love France, and everything french,
I always say sorry when it's not my fault,
I live in the country,
I don't care if you're popular by their standards,
I brush my teeth for a long time,
You will have to live with the fact that
