graduate.

i wrote this the night before my highschool graduation. 

























cling-
to the pale moon,
to the sun's rays,
to the changing world.
grow-
up in yourself,
away from other people,
closer to new.
don't-
hold me back,
keep me grounded,
blend into the background.
live-
and never look back.
flee-
from everything dear.
move-
from the adolescence around you.
today-
bloom.
today-
sacrifice.
today-
graduate.

my favorite loves.

The Titanic
Jack and Rose

"I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count." - Jack.

The Notebook
Noah and Allie


"So it's not gonna be easy. It's gonna be really hard. We're gonna have to work at this every day, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, for ever, you and me, every day." - Noah.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Benjamin and Daisy


"For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."

Dear John
John and Savannah


"The saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all." - Savannah.

Jamie: "I might be bad at it."
Landon: "That's not possible."

The Last Song

.....................................................

The Twilight Saga
Bella and Jacob


"I’m exactly right for you, Bella. It would have been effortless for us — comfortable, easy as breathing. I was the natural path your life would have taken… If the world was the way it was supposed to be, if there were no monsters and no magic… He’s like a drug for you, Bella. I see that you can’t live without him now. It’s too late. But I would have been healthier for you. Not a drug; I would have been the air, the sun." - Jacob Black.

the month of may was bitter-sweet.





















mistakes
made a million times
less than
twenty-four hours
the same thing
beat yourself 
up
beat yourself 
down
they're not
disappearing
don't stop
please
but stop
all at the same time
i don't know
where i'm going
where we're going
where they're going
move away
take a break
to the beach 
to the sea
submerse yourself
in regrets-
regrets
like me.

dear juliet,
i know
i understand
the way you felt
torn apart
from the only thing
that meant everything.
dear juliet,
that balcony
that garden
have never looked so familiar
i've been there
late at night
forbidden
star-crossed
but all the while
in love.
dear juliet,
it makes sense now
all of it
why you ran
why you hid
why you fought
why you suffered
i'd do the same
am doing the same
for him
my romeo.
dear juliet,
i'm sorry
they got in the way
pushed
and shoved
into the middle
of your mind
of your heart
filled your young head with doubts
so undeserving
of their judgement
of their persecution
as am i.
dear juliet,
i want
more than anything
to run
and never look back
to just be us
no interruptions
no complications
the way it should be
but as you proved...
stories like ours
only end in tragedy.
dear juliet,
i wish you were here.

the night that's yet to happen.

lust
and longing
back seat
your eyes
so big
so full
of hurt
widened by the
awful,
torturous,
hated
lies
that i tried
to twist into
truths
you
wanted nothing more
than me
and my soul
and my lips
and my sacrifice
that i've already given
too much
too little
for any one person.
i'll never forget
nor hopefully
remember
your eyes
my shaking hands
the moon
thirty-nine degrees
the shooting star
that slit open the sky
as if to say:
"it's okay"
"say goodbye"
"this is the end"
my lungs
my head
my heart
ache
at the thought
of our destiny
of our closure
of our "what could've beens"
and our "what should've beens"
fate
threw us a wild card
an unexpected
unfair
unjust
card
selfishness
takes over
selflessness
over takes
nothing. 
else.
can.
be .
done.
thankyou
for fighting
for kissing
for laughing
for dreaming
for comforting
for understanding
that it was time 
for me
to go.
