"if you asked me who i
am, i'd probably forget to
tell you my name. instead
i'd tell you that my eyes
are green and im shorter
than most. i'd tell you
that i think the sky looks
too big at night and not
big enough in the
morning. i'd probably
explain that has
something to do with the
fact that i wake up with
every intention of flying
and go to sleep knowing
my elbows haven't
sprouted wings yet. but
don't worry because i'll
wake up hopeful again
tomorrow. and if you
were to wait around a
little more i'd probably
tell you that i lost my
mind around 3 years ago.
would you be kind
enough to help me look
for it? i'm not the type of girl you'll be able to
forget about in a moment
because; i am the girl
holding her elbows when
watching the ocean. i am
pulling the stitches
closed and wincing
against the saltwater on
my scars. i am not afraid
to look in my opal-
reflection, but i'm not
ready to face it just yet.
because i am the girl
building sand castles
during high tide, the one
running into the waves
fully dressed. i am
breathing in coral and
starfish so that when i
come apart, at least my
insides will be beautiful"
So obviously, not one
exactly like the example
above, but one in the
style of that. I know
theres a lot of intelligent
people out there so
PLEASE help me! :)
