This is just me rambling but I think I love you.
Or at least,
I love how good of a picture you take
and those nice shiny trophies on your shelf
and the fact that you're everything anyone expects from
Prince Charming.
If I loop my arm around you, everything will be set.
If I loop my arm around you, it will be easy to forget
that boy who passed me notes in the hallyway
who smiled shyly and blushed when I smiled back
who wrote me a song all in C
but never had a chance to sing it.

Grid Paper - Poetry Prose.
Your grid paper life offers all the structure I need.
But it's just that, isn't it?
It just looks good on paper.
Beyond the starched white crisscrossed with hazy blue lines there is something
ERRATIC
trying to escape.
Something tangible and wild that doesn't just bend the rules,
IT BREAKS THEM ALL TOGETHER.
And when that wild soul bears its teeth and breaks free of the hard gridded lines that keep it in check,
things become visceral and real,
beautiful in an ugly way.
Without these lines, life would be raw and untamed
and so much better.

I Was Mistaken.
When I look
I see
I mistook
your pleasantries
for friendship
and what we had
was really
nothing
at all.
When I touch
I feel
too much
the cold shoulder
of your scowl
and I know
you meant
none of it
at all.
I was mistaken
about you
and I'm sorry
for it too.

When.
when will the King
crown the valiant Knight?
and when will the Rich
see the Poor's blight?
When does Darkness
reign over Light?
