is there a worse pain
than heartbreak? oh yes, stepping
on a lego block.

It was a Thursday when I saw you, and I knew. My life as I’ve known it would never be the same. See, you’ve even got me quoting clichés. It was serenity and delirium all at the same time. Movies have been made about this one moment, songs have been sung, poems written. It was fate, destiny, call it whatever you want. I knew it had to be you. But I am plain and you are so exquisite and poised and intimidating. I convinced myself we would look odd together. So I sunk back into the shadows, and loved you from afar. It’s better this way, I think. This is a story of the most tragic love affair.

honestly i do
not trust myself with your love
as much as you do.

with wine in my veins and i’ll
be dreaming of you.

i think of you most
during the quietest parts
of my busy days.

I am constantly fascinated by the way your breath escapes your pink lips in a rush of condensation. They remind me of that time when you got drunk and decided that you would be a smoker. “Like one of those French girls”, you told me. I liked watching the way your lips clamped down on the ends of that cigarette, and the lazy way the smoke crawled out of your mouth like a seasoned smoker. It was unbearably sensual, quite unlike the you I was used to. I knew at that moment when the last tendrils of smoke unfurled themselves from your body that I could never detach myself from you, even if I had to stay hidden like a secret beneath your tongue.

i tried letting you
go but the wind blew you back
into my cold hands.

i’ve taken things for
granted but it is time to
count my blessings.

have you ever thought
of how we might have been like
without all this space?

we build our own
futures but we were such fools
to let this slip by.

Went for the amazing Florence + the Machine’s concert last night here in Adelaide. Florence Welch was just mind-blowing. I’m a little disappointed that All This And Heaven, Too was not part of their setlist but it’s probably for the best because I would have just started crying and that’s pretty embarrassing.

Also, after watching F+tM live, their albums really just pale in comparison. Spectacular.

measure up to that moment
when i felt alive.
