I’ll tell you how the sun rose, a ribbon at a time

"I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was hurricane." -John Green, Looking for Alaska

Crazy ways are evident, In the way that you're wearing your clothes.
Sippin' booze is precedent as the evening starts to glow.

Dancing days are here again as the summer evening grows..
You are my flower, you are my power..
You are my woman who knows.

I GOT A SWEET TOOTH WHEN MY MOUTH IS FULL OF YOU.

Rainy day, dream away.

Ah, let the sun take a holiday.

Flowers bathe and see the children play.

Lay back and groove on a rainy day.

The sky was filled with a thousand stars

While the sun kissed the mountains blue

And eleven moons played across rainbows

Above me and you. -Jimi

TRUTH BY EMILY KROL

Gazing at the darkened sky,

the twinkle of the night.

Defeated by the blur of tears,

the scream of city lights.

Truth, I find,

is hard to discern.

Does it sparkle?

Does it burn?

It singes my heart

with each promise that's spoken.

I know, that in lies,

there's another heart broken.

A weightless moment slips away

in the gravity of time.

It fades away with each tick of the clock,

it's gone in the blink of an eye.

Trusting people to tell the truth;

It's hard, but I have to try.

I can't decide which is harder to bear;

Reality, or a lie?

POW!

THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD YOU CAN JUST LOVE AND LOVE AND LOVE. NO MATTER WHAT.

If you never did, you should. These things are fun, and fun is good.

WANT ONE.

LIGHTS WILL GUIDE YOU HOME AND IGNITE YOUR BONES.

"QUIT YOUR JOB. BUY A TICKET. GET A TAN. FALL IN LOVE. NEVER RETURN."

MMMM...DOPITY DOPE DOPE.

Si.

“Don’t be afraid to be a fool. Remember, you cannot be both young and wise. Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don’t learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say no. But saying yes begins things. Saying yes is how things grow. Saying yes leads to knowledge. “Yes” is for young people. So for as long as you have the strength to, say yes.”

When the morning gathers the rainbow,
Want you to know I'm a rainbow too.

SUNNIES & BATHERS. CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU.

SUMMER '10

“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.” – Roald Dahl

Pink Floyd: "I've been mad for fucking years, absolutely years, been
over the edge for yonks, been working me buns off for bands..."
"I've always been mad, I know I've been mad, like the
most of us...very hard to explain why you're mad, even
if you're not mad..."
