Mad Rain

In your light I learn to love.
In your beauty, how to make poems.
You dance inside my chest, where no one sees you.
But sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.

Can you guess what they are?


I'll give you a hint. I like to put them in a smirnoff ice, especially Triple Black. Mmmm. :D

Running. I miss it so much....
My running shoes are permanently stained from the red dirt on the path I used to run...


My number from the last official run I was in...

147 Mixtapes. Brad made these for me...long before we started dating, he made me mixtapes. All numbered, and with the simple request that once I received a new one, I don't listen to the older ones. I received mixtape 147 three days before he died...I know it better than any other album. I used to have these on my wall, but one broke when I took it down to move. I was devastated, and have kept them safely packed away since then...

My most favorite soda, hands down. Sweet ambrosia, highly caffeinated. Mmmm...

Sunsets. They hold a special place in my heart as they remind me so much of Bradford.

When he died, I got an "If you are reading this" letter. In that letter, he described a sunset better than I ever could:

"...I love your ability to see beauty in the smallest things, the things that everyone else seems to miss. You have changed my perspective on so many things… Remember the first time we watched a sunset together? We closed our eyes and you asked me to describe it to you… I was at a complete loss to convey what I was feeling, but I think now I can tell you… a sunset feels the same way that love does. There is this warmth that lightly touches you, teases your skin, yet at the same time consumes you, and it can be windy or bad but you don’t feel it as much because you are part of something so beautiful, so powerful, that it doesn’t affect you. Even though your eyes are closed, you can still sense this glow, this comfort. Your heart feels lighter and heavier at the same time, and you wish you could just stop this moment and keep things like this forever. That’s how it feels for me with you. You make my sunsets worthwhile."

Rainy Days...the stormier the better

I often feel that I "belong" in a place where it rains all the time. I love it...it's so relaxing, cleansing. Give me a rainy day, a good book, and a warm blanket over sunny skies any day...

Who Am I?

I care too much.
I worry too often.
I trust too easily.
I hold on for too long.
I take things too personally.
I love deeply, too completely.
I have to learn some lessons the hard way.
I know that nothing worth having is ever easy.

I feel...
disconnected from this world.
as if I don’t quite belong here.
lost.
incomplete.
afraid of all that is before me.
completely unsure of myself.

I am...
constantly distracted
highly caffeinated
artful minded
often displaced
slightly OCD
easily amused
very stubborn
possibly radioactive
usually peaceful
overly independent
creatively random

I Am inspired by...
My friends,
what they have taught me,
about life, about myself,
about love, and loss…
I am who I am because of you.
I am forever changed, eternally grateful.
You know who you are.
