Love is like a stray dog. Everywhere you go there are people wanting it, looking for it, or wishing they had it back.

&quot;Sometimes I break down so hard you can hear it, and when I can stand to come near it with means to repair, the chances of walking out unscathed are slim to none.
I know because I&rsquo;m one; a victim of second-hand breakdowns and bad impressions, made under intoxicated conditions with poorly lit expressions. And I regret not going back, I regret not missing flights, I regret not asking for more and taking chances that I can only hope will not be forgotten. My fingers are crossed.

I-O-U.

Now my telephone&rsquo;s dead and I can&rsquo;t stand to hold out like this, but I&rsquo;m constantly checking myself so as not to be a burden. Anything too heavy eventually gets dropped, no matter the cost. Let me be light as a feather, but valued enough so as to remain in a back pocket, until those jeans need washing and I find my place on a bedside table, to be read aloud on nights when memories and prying needs return to haunt the foundations of this room.

Pick me up,
Read me every now and then,
I won&rsquo;t disappoint.
*I am* witty and engaging so bless me with attention, because I&rsquo;m *dying* for attention *without* any means of telling *you*.&quot;- Alex Gaskarth
