Family

Don’t rely on those who love you for everything about you that is beautiful, because that is not enough to merit trust. Instead, turn to those who love you despite everything about you that is ugly because when you let go, they’ll still be holding on and when you give them your back they will still be there when you turn around, ready to forgive even before you’ve mustered the courage to apologize. Turn to those who you call brother and sister though you don’t share a lineage; those you call mother, father, children through a bond thicker than blood, because though they did not give birth to you, they give life to y

I thought

I thought I gave up on you, on superstition, months, years ago Yet, when I saw tonight the path of a shooting star, I thought immediately of you. It was only a passing meteor, and you disappeared just as mysteriously, but... I thought I gave up long, long ago

Melodramatic Hellos

When the words of Bob Dylan mixed inside of me with a sentimental loneliness, you entered my mind. It's been a while. When we last spoke, you had reappeared, shortly, from a mysterious absence. You told me that you didn't want to bother me with your "Melodramatic Hellos" I lied in bed, running over it all; things I regret saying, an appreciation that I didn't express, though I felt it, though I still feel it. Where are you now, Darling Dearest? What bed do you sleep in, that I maybe be there when you awaken? When will you again grace me with a Melodramatic Hello?

Taco Brava

Your simple beauty, your coy indifference, Ah! Was it fate, or was it chance that brought you, and your mysterious elegance, to such a mundane eatery? To such a commonplace space in my lonely life! I return, I return, not to sate a hunger, but to pique a thirst for something, almost intangible, miles from an inexpensive burrito. Love, attraction - simple, simple want for simple, simple beauty. You take my order, my money, but I dare not say what I truly want what I'd truly give.

Upon driving independant

The American Spirit: it's more than the cigarette with the to-go cup of coffee from the diner. I could say a lot of things, but I'll say this: I feel like Spain ain't so far away.

Chicken Weather birthday

 I heard the crackle from the other end of the line. I didn't expect it. I was calling because I have a problem dropping some things. She was one of them. "…Dad?" she said. She had the soft, groggy voice she has when she's just woken up or about to go to bed, and she wants to sleep but she's on the phone with me. I almost didn't want to answer. I waited a moment before I did. "…No." She didn't respond. "Did I wake you?" She didn't respond. It was a strange hour. I told her it was me. "Where have you been?" "You're a dick." It had been raining all through my birthday, and it wasn't my birthday anymore and the sky was taking a

Cat's Game

Do you remember the time we played tic-tac-toe on my skin with a razor blade? The scars are still there – three grids etched into my upper left arm. Two futile rounds, O’s impeding X’s, X’s blockading O’s. Then finally, nearest to my elbow: XXX, and a line etched through them. A small, small victory. We were sitting on your couch, when you pulled the blade from thin air. You took my arm, and slashed the four crossing, nearly painless lines. I didn’t understand until you placed your O in the center, and handed me the razor. Blood was starting to surface when I placed an X in the top right corner, and a velvety-re

Proof

Baby, Reach into me with your hands and extinguish my internal fires, then show me your palms, clean, soft, and somehow unscathed, and weave your fingers into mine. Prove to me I don't have to be alone, and I can hold you like no other. Baby, Blow away with your lips the grey clouds that hang above my head, so the rain will fall on a shadow behind me, then bring your mouth to mine. Prove to me I am worth something so tender, and I can kiss you like no other. Baby, Shine a light with your eyes and evaporate the dark figures that obscure my vision, until the only thing left in my pupil is your reflection. Prove to me seein

Two AM Runaway D1

She woke up with a jolt. The distant words “she’s fucking gone” had woken her up, and were now resonating in her head. The lights stung her eyes, but she didn’t remember leaving them on. As her eyes adjusted to the brightness, she noticed another figure standing in the room. Her nervous shock was settled when she was able to make out the person. Her neighbor was leaning against a wall with a backpack at his feet. His face expression was uncomfortable, and his hand twitched involuntarily. He was sixteen, a year younger than she, but he was able to pass for twenty. Though he could have joined the social groups of peo
