youmightfindyourself:
Why don’t you believe in God? I get that question all the time. I always try to give a sensitive, reasoned answer. This is usually awkward, time consuming and pointless. People who believe in God don’t need proof of his existence, and they certainly don’t want evidence to the contrary. They are happy with their belief. They even say things like “it’s true to me” and...

I wish I was still heartbroken over you. It gave me a lot more to write about.

to consider loving myself
I met him on a night out. Basement club. Small, grungy, hollowed out cocoon of fairy-lighted rooms. He was a friend of a friend of a friend, and at first I didn’t think much of him. Slightly strained conversation over one too many beers. Later we got lost in the dancefloor, and with his hand in mine the memories get hazy. TaxiKeysStairsBed. I was expecting… I don’t know, what I...

Annabel Lee
It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of Annabel Lee; And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me. I was a child and she was a child, In this kingdom by the sea; But we loved with a love that was more than love- I and my Annabel Lee; With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven Coveted...

Lucky
The passengers on the bus watched sympathetically as the attractive young woman with the white cane made her way carefully up the steps. She paid the driver and, using her hands to feel the location of the seats, walked down the aisle and found the seat he’d told her was empty. Then she settled in, placed her briefcase on her lap and rested her cane against her leg. It had been a...

Lookbook
I’m a fan of lookbook. I really am. I can spend hours on it, staring at pretty people in pretty outfits, but the “hype” system lookbook has implemented has gotten me thinking. No offense to anyone on lookbook, but there have got to be a hundred pictures of the same “look,” take for example, the oversized tshirt over tights paired with a pair of docs. I’m not...

Stop
Stop being you. Stop saying things you don’t mean. You just lead me on and every time I believe you, because I want to believe you do really mean it, just this time. You do little things that hurt me, not consciously because you would never do that. Things that I know you don’t mean to do. I know you care about me, that’s nice, but you don’t want me enough to commit. So...

I chased you for 12 years around the world, and I...
When I met you in 1990, you said that you’d marry the man who’d follow you around the world. We were just sophomores in high school, so I didn’t know what to think. I thought it was just some school girl romantic fantasy. All I knew was that you were the girl for me. We were only 15 years old, but I had this feeling that you’d play a major role in my life. After we...
