Every attempt ends in failure
Every choice with a mistake
My motives are uncertain
Disaster I leave in my wake

My actions cause anguish
While my words bring bliss
I can claim amity
Then command a kiss

My words are eloquent
But I perceive my deceit
I am made to wander
My love is not concrete

I wrote this about a boy i knew who i continued to crush after even though i knew he was a flirt. I decided to write something from his perspective that he would tell me to subdue my crush.

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN
