world, pick us

this isn't a poem. you can stop reading if you're looking for something deeper than i'm willing to offer today.
yesterday, i met someone who was so fucking rad, i'm making plans to travel cross-country to meet up.last night, i couldn't sleep because i was an anxiety-ridden fool for a friend of someone i just met (and who probably thinks it's creepy).today, i'm making a re(v)olution and not apologizing for shit. tomorrow, i'm packing my bag and going somewhere beautiful, if only for the night.this life should be made of the strangers you care too much for and the friends you meet that remind you there is ground to walk on, but the clouds are much softer. let's go there. let's hold hands and dreams of places we've never been to.
you know who you are.
you clearly know who i am. even though you don't.
i don't take back things that i say, mostly because i am always wrong when i am writing and if i'm not, then there is something you're missing. if it's honesty that you want, i suggest you look again. if it's roses and hearts, and sun beams that you want, i suggest you look elsewhere because everything i say tells a story and it might not be the one you want to hear, but it's the one i don't want to keep in. and it might not be the most flattering but it's the one i know.
this is the first time i've been honest with myself. and with everyone else. i'm keeping myself on that track.
anyway.
thank goodness.
