Spring

(UO scarf, cardigan and tights, H&M dress, old field hockey socks)

Yesterday's outfit..and a view of mine and Olivia's nook.

And here's a poem I wrote yesterday..hope you like it!

I feel their faces on me, as heavy as the sun, and yet I keep on walking, though my eyelids weigh a ton. I only wanted to make a smile, appear before me on the street, but alas, the heart thaws slower, than the snow beneath my feet. She said it'd be an early spring, that she could tell from everything, from the dying of the bitter wind, to the returning color in her skin. One month until I'm free again, driving south with an anxious hand. I'll sit outside and watch the sky, and wonder how the day flew by, cause you and i, are absent of time. I'll watch as your grows past your eyes, and smile from the lack of surprise, cause I've always missed the simplest things, from the bruise on your knee, to the sunset you see. I fall in love with thoughts of you, the dreams I have, can you see them too?  That look in your eyes, such a beautiful view, like falling slowly from the skies, down onto an ocean of blue. The tension released from a child's string, cut from the ties that held my meaning, but do not frown for I will be back, once I find what it is I lack. I know I'm most happy in moments of you, but with miles between us, what can I do? I must live my dreams, within me without you, find out what it means, to be someone true. I want to inspire, and again feel desire, to live each day with passion and fire. With you I feel I could see the world, and really see it for all it holds, we'd meet new people and treasure their faces, breathe new air in the farthest of places. Cause I'm following the light that you gave to my eyes, and learning now that I don't need this disguise. What was there all along, will always remain, even as we drift, to a different frame. Cause when we return to each other's hold, I'll forever forget this winter's cold. A beautiful boy with curious eyes, I could never explain how you make me alive.
