I miss it

the angels and the hallelujahs
the soft eclipses
words passing between
getting drunk on not-so-good intentions and
“you know where this is going”s

little white lies
or exaggerations-
I honestly don't know the difference-
tall tales of short summers and shorter kisses
shorter breathes and even shorter skirts

were we adults pretending we were children
or
we we children just trying to piss the adults off?
I don't know,
I don't know anymore

I know her, or I used to, little fawn, little dear,
playing hide and seek but this time,
she hid and didn't want to be found,
didn't know what to seek and now she's me
and I only wish I could be her
so brave, little dear
so little unlikely lost, so little near

we were once lambs
we are now the wolves
hungering for yesterday
the last midnight eve
the darlings and the starlings
or something in between

lovers, liars, innocent virgins
cheats and the storytellers,
none of it matters  
they are all gentle aches in my heart
I should be packing right now, but I can't bring myself to do it.

I hate the new house we're moving into. I went along with the walkthrough with my parents and grandparents, expecting a whole lot more, and was majorly disappointed. I thought the house would be bigger, but it's like the same size of the one we're in now, but with a whole lot more rooms packed into it. it's cramped, has a messy set up, and needs a lot of work done. I am going to go crazy.

oh god, why can't I find an apartment in my price range?

but yeah, this is definitely a temporary situation. and this poem I guess really fits my mood.
