"People are screwed up in this world. I'd rather be with someone screwed up and open about it than somebody perfect and ready to explode." - Ned Vizzini, It's Kind of a Funny Story


This is the silent anticlimactic pang
Of snow that has stopped falling,
It is a mundane hunger
When I think of your name,
Crawling up my stomach and into my brain,
I bleed when I think of the games
We used to play as children and how
Your eyes crinkle when you smile.
I realize this is the empty feeling
Of missing someone;
You are the sun-tinted swing set
On a summer afternoon and
I am a winter morning in bed.
