GREAT. Way to make me feel worthless!
...in a good way.
i'm capable of caring, and i do care.
i need to dance. i need to sing. i need time of my own to be joyous.
i love the spring.
it makes me melt.
flowing skirts and silky elegant dresses.
i wake up to the sun. the sun! by now it seems unheard of.
i can smell the rain, it is on it's way.
my hair will be damp with water, my clothes wet with rain.
flowers will shower each evening and be dew-dressed by morning!
i will take bike rides in the park,
and have picnics in cute places with a tape player. ...and mixtapes! on cassettes!
with love songs and maybe some rock'n'roll we can dance to.
and i will have friends. plenty.
and they will call me and i will invite them to join me on an adventure.
it will be wonderful.
we will walk barefooted and pay no mind to our appearances because we know we are beautiful.
and by nightfall i will be reading in my bedroom, listening to my stereo with my windows opened!!!
and i will be content.
my date of birth is march 4, 1988. this upcoming thursday i will turn 16,
but i'd rather get a raincheck.
"What do you want for your birthday?" "I don't know."
"What are you going to do for your birthday?" "I... don't know."
I wish I knew because I only turn 16 once, and i decided against throwing a sweet sixteen party, their essence has been lost.
(!!!) i will be forever greatful if you make me one of the classic pins with sugar cubes. i will wear my poodle skirt and we can go to the sock hop, then to the cinema or the drive-in and view a film, and subsequently share a float at the soda pop shop.
