Oh so safe

After getting on the flippy Ferris wheel thingy at the busker carnival:
"It's swinging. Why?! Make it stop now"
"I can't do anything"
"Okay, fine. but we're safe, right? It smells like it's burning.. that's not safe"
"Yes, we're safe, darling"
"I want off. Look, I can't breathe"
*laughs* "We can't. Not yet. A few more spins"
*screaming and general trauma ensues*
An hour after we got off:
"Can we go again?!"

Minor interruptions

"Trust me", he said. But it wasn't his voice.
A flood of words, flashbacks, and a touch that chains.
The ebb and flow of memory.
Shaking... I cling to myself, to this moment, to him.
In a matter of seconds I come right back up, breathing,
and almost unharmed.

pearls and a red dress

I sat across from you at that Greek restaurant and you told me your secrets.
Between us: years, a candle, a plate of olives, and a bottle of pinot noir.
I listened long enough to know that the words were fragile but not long enough to realize I would give them back.

Love stories

He wanted to impress me, I think.
"Marhaban!" he said, and I've been laughing ever since. 

oh sisters

what would I do without you?
therapy, probably :P

it was a special Saturday, you see

picnic, cherry festival, bubble gun, AND my first chocolate dipped ice cream cone!

conversations

"have you ever heard of a suicidal dove?"

friends

We've had such distances between each other after we left this town to find our paths but somehow we always manage to come together and pick up right where we left off <3
