january sixteenth and other days

Let's pretend that nothing will ever change.

Let's keep this moment enclosed in our own little infinity and remember everything that reason says doesn't matter because it matters to us.

Let's run in the snow and film videos that are probably the worst things we'll ever watch while you try to make me drink river water and we laugh because insects terrify me.

Let's play video games in your basement and flirt with each other because there's no one here to judge us for how we are when we're together and even when there is we don't care anyway.

Let's try to go to an art gallery twice because we didn't think to see when it's actually open.

Let's sing in a different language and not care how off key we are.

Let's lay in the grass and watch dumb videos because we like to laugh together.

Let's draw together and tell our stories and remember how to care about others.

Let's watch Clue while you gather the courage to hold my hand.

Let's smile together.

Let's fall in love.  

Let's fall in love and forget what comes after that because the ground is so far away and we're rushing through the clouds.

Let's forget the sixteenth and the day of Awkward Waves and Minimal Eye Contact.

Let's fall in love and pick each other back up again because we weren't meant to be in love but it seems we were meant to be together.

  4. Clue?

    I loved your run-ons.

    And the capitalized days that looked like holidays.

    This is the best love post. I worship how simple and to the point your writing is. It's not just fluff like so many writers. It's just... perfect.
