strawberries.
Strawberries are alluring. Their smell, their color - so vivid and bright, a splash of spring and early summer in a bowl or between my fingers; sometimes they taste like nothing, pale imitations of expectation, but what I love about them is how their essence never fails to linger in my mouth.
Every breath I take after is faintly sweet.

sometimes it is easier to lie.
as the doctor would attest to,
because telling the truth is much scarier
and you want the lie to be true so much it hurts.
sleep is so elusive.
I really can't picture anyone having a crush on...
I can’t picture someone thinking about me before they fall asleep, or telling their friends about me. I can’t picture anyone getting butterflies because I said hi to them, or even just looked at them. I can’t picture someone smiling at the computer screen or their cell phones when we’re talking.
Why would they? I’m just me. Nothing extraordinary, or special.

Silence
Sometimes silence is what I need. Sometimes I can feel the hum of thought in my bones like a weak tremble of farewells, the solitude in my blood a sluggish blade headed for my lungs.
Silence is what I need. (That or Doctor Who.)
It is a little easier on my contrary heart to feel alone when I am actually alone than to feel alone when surrounded by people.
Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these, ‘It might have been.
