No edgy, rebellious fool

imagination & NERVE,

A grown up Man

smart

skillful

confident

with a playful spirit &

a

Punk

Heart

I know, I know, I know you

I know you know you know me too

So, when the sun went down

And I lost your eyes

I prayed to God to let the light

Shine off you again

It ain't easy leavin' you

Without a sound

I remove your crown

Your green dress glows

As the stars go round

I pray to God to let the darkness

Cheat the dawning light

So, when the sun went down

And I lost your eyes

I prayed to God to let the light

Shine off you

It ain't easy leavin' you

"We loved with a love that was more than love"

Edgar Allan Poe

make him smile

Wedding Preview: Noah and Rachael 8.14.10 from Ben Potter & Drew Barefoot on Vimeo.

She Wants To Make A Home

She's a flag.

She exciting. She's excitement. She's home.

She'll be your lighthouse.

Your cabin in the snow.

A flower in your meadow.

Your lady.

Your whore.

Nasty & sweet.

Wild & pure.

And true.

grande erreur

Mistake:

to think they're like me

I miss you

Tonight

I just want to cook together

Stay in a cabin in the east

Make our own pickles & jam

Sleep together outside

Perhaps in a hammock

Buy furniture together

I can garden while you do man shit

Black dirty hands

Sweat

Clothes line

Shed

Porch

Yard

Tangled legs

Fireplace

Fingertips

Car rides

Play house

Fuck around

Make-out

Pick up truck

Blankets

Smell each others skin

Smell each others neck

Hands grazing

Legs opening

A rush

strange day

I get excited... a lot.. & loud

then I feel self-conscious

I like the name Priscilla

I want to take a trip

Meh

so done wasting time with people that make you feel like shit

not worth it

Hurray

http://thoughtcatalog.com/2011/what-it-will-be-like-after-we-break-up/

"After some amount of time, maybe six months, the urgency of the situation will perhaps fade. I’ll have received enough validating emails, sold a book proposal, and perhaps begun to date a girl that actually has something on me. The girl and I will start our own relationship, and I’ll learn that you still haven’t slept with someone else, and my general stance toward that will be a combination of good/ meh. But then something will happen – my new girlfriend will do something wrong. She’ll show me that she can’t handle what you could, and consequently, it will be revealed that I have been so, so wrong. That it isn’t okay, that nothing is okay, that nothing had been okay since we broke up, and that nothing will be okay until we get back together. "

beautiful words

"delicate, delicate.." he whispers to her..

as she bites into him & eats away at his flesh

it's actually not good

it's unfortunate

&

it's quite sad

because it's over

& at eventually we'll be laying with another

sharing our beds with someone else

telling them we love them

creating new moments

one sooner than the other & it'll hurt like no other

because there is a ship out at sea

masked by the fog

afraid to swim out & drown it

yet unable to sail without it

but the fog makes it so far

and it's headed south

while I'm headed north

let me go

let go of me
