Self Portrait

Do you know her?
The pretty little girl
All laughter and curls
Sweet hazel eyes
(Dear childhood,
I'm writing to say goodbye)
Do you see her?
In her Sunday dress
Playing in the dirt
Such a mess!
(I don't want to see you
When I close my eyes)
She's the quietest one
Always reading some book
She's hooked
To the words and sounds
(I can't visit you
Anymore)
She's the little angel
Playing with toys
So very quiet
She doesn't make a noise
(You remind me too much
Of all I abhor)
She's the sweetheart
Smiling in pictures
Now she's all in black
Hiding the punctures
(Goodbye forever)

I love it, babe... You don't have to cover your punctures, though. Everything about you is beautiful. Even that. Your light is so blindingly bright now that no one can see them anyway.

I love you so much, ANGEL.

Hey, I just wanted to say congrats on graduating. I'm soo proud of you. I saw you with Tyler, and your family. But I thought it best not to come running over there and hug you because you hate hugs, and Tyler hates me. I kinda cheered for you. I was in the middle of crying at that point, but I clapped! I hope you have fun in College, and were ever you end up in life. I'm really going to miss you. Don't forget about me, when your all big and bad college student ok?
*hugs*

Wait, don't punctures ensure the return?
