A good day and some not-so-crappy poetry.
So, here's the first writer's workshop entry from me for this year:
Are you my someone?
Is that what it means
to feel this way?
to take hands and hearts
in mind,
over and over, and still worry?
Are you my someone?
Because, you see,
you could be,
it could be.
But, then, flutters are fleeting
after all, and
everyone has felt like
this before and
there's really no reason
to believe in
more than like and
less than love when
it seems too confused
anyway. And you.
Are you my someone?
Because, it's not that
you're difficult, but that
I make it hard.
I'm slow to understand and
I ask what I know I shouldn't because
It'd just be awkward and
anyways I should ask because you
Are you my someone?
Because I know I wouldn't mind
if the flutters
stayed a little longer,
because I haven't felt like
this before and I believe in
confusion that is
more like love than like and that
I'd rather put aside these questions
and be confused and stop fighting
just this once,
and anyways.
Do you like it?
And I had a good day. But more importantly, tomorrow is MLK day, and I need to know what the LOTHT kids have planned. Because around 1 or 2 would be sweet if we happened to all do stuff together. The Barracudas have been severely underrepresented thus far, and it needs remedy.
