Sometimes I be cool

So there is this girl that I have had a crush on since the first day I saw her at school. I finally gained the courage to ask her on a date. She said yes. Yet I still feel worried. I feel like she is too good for me, way above my level. I know I shouldn't downgrade myself but I can't help it. I also am afraid that she isn't over her ex... that last thing I want is to feel used to make her ex jealous. I guess we'll see how things go. It is somewhat curious how one can date a person for a year or years, then end a relationship... then move on to someone else. I feel as though I have learned a lot from my past partners about myself. There is still much more to learn. Gah, all these feels.

So much for a joy ride

"So much for a joy ride"


My tank was on empty
five miles back
rocks and bumps
twists and turns
no compass
the road signs torn down
paths that go left
bridges that stream right
no U-turns
just me
trying to eject

Stepping stones

"Stepping stones"



You can just stop right now
take your handsome smile
your bright eyes
your intoxicating laugh
and your rapture words
give them to someone else,
someone who will fall for your shit
you will always want more
never thinking twice
people are your stepping stones,
to get what you want
it must be lonely up there
being so holy
I would have never given you
the cruelty and pain
you bestowed onto me

Some days, I break


"Some days, I break"

It is not everyday that one can smile back at the world
I am not always so strong, I am only human
I can break down
I can fall apart
I can curl my knees and cover my eyes
I can cry... oh boy can I cry
Some days I feel like I could fill rivers with my tears.
                                   -J.Lajoie

Love

Pride and Prejudice makes me cry so much. I want a love like that. So many feels.

Uncomfortable friends

"Uncomfortable friends"

I don't know where we stand
maybe somewhere between uncomfortable,
and friends
I find myself slipping up
wanting to see you
rendering myself utterly useless,
in your world
but I will never give in
you can't have me,
ever again
because I sure as hell know
I never gave you the right to hurt me

Light my fire

"Light my fire"

It's the type of fire you build
that decides how bright we burn
I am smoldering coals
but the slight warmth that sheds from me
wasn't good enough
so you smothered me
I should have burned you when I had the chance.
                  -J.Lajoie
