honey, i'm home

you're honestly one of the most incredible people that i know
and it means a lot to me that you're one of my closest friends
you are selfless and passionate
you are a star.

i admire you for your courage
i admire you for knowing exactly what you believe in, and never turning your back on it
if only i had front row seats to my beliefs, every day
one day, maybe

there are very few people that i know who would go to the lengths that you go to
me?
no
you took a huge risk in doing what you did
you put a little bit more light back into the lives of people
but then again - you've always done that

thank you for never giving up on life, on yourself
on me
dont argue this, either
you have done more than you know
and i've missed you

i just want you to say, "honey, i'm home"

you say you need a girl in your life

i just straight up dont understand you sometimes
you told me yourself that day when we went out for lunch
you said, "i just need a girl in my life"
okay, here i am
and i've been trying to be here for you and all that junk
i guess it's just not working
maybe you should tell me what i'm doing wrong
better yet, tell me if you want me here at all

i dont want to waste my time if you're not going to waste yours, too
that's what we're supposed to be doing - wasting time with each other
because we're young and we're not getting any younger

for the future

when we approach our work
as if we love it -

we may remember that we truly enjoy it.

the women of the world

from birth to age eighteen, a girl needs good parents.
from eighteen to thirty-five she needs good looks.
from thirty-five to fifty-five she needs a good personality.
and from fifty-five on she needs cash.

-Sophie Tucker

"i am tired." -Golda Meir

one of the most important women in world politics admitted she was exhausted.
we could see this as good modeling.

admitting we are tired is not admitting failure.

lets have a nice cup of tea and a sit down

there is somebody in my life that needs to be recognized
i do not do this nearly as often as i need to
but here it goes

you are not afraid to say what's on your mind regardless of how it is taken or understood
what misunderstanding? kiss my ass.
you are passionate and caring
living for family is something that people need to take into account
and you do
you're brilliant and you don't know it
one day you're going to help me change the world
and we're going to do it, too

there is more to you than meets the eye
and i'm fine with learning a little something every day

you're right when you say that people come into your lives for a reason
why they leave, i have yet to understand
but i know for sure that you are in my life for more reasons than i know right now
and you have helped me more than you will ever know
and i can not begin to thank you enough for it

as for me.. where will i be?
i'll be here, kiddo
pick a day, any time
you know i'm most likely awake

i love and appreciate everything that you have done, and continue to do for me
there are not enough people in this world like you

sign of the gypsy queen

you were a light, a passion. you were love and life.
this is you we're talking about right now
i dont know what happened
but i could take a pretty wild guess and nail that shit on the head

who have you become?
look what you've done.

i stuck up for you when the others told me that i was wrong
this is me we're talking about now
you knew what you were doing
tell me that it makes sense to cry dry tears

who have you become?
look what you've done.

dont let the door hit you in the ass on your way out
even though i check the mail every day
you wont write

you remember Carrie, dont you?
twenty-seven
we were going to get married

when is my fucking birthday?

and i'll share the world with you

my mom is my best friend.


i'm 16 now - and i hope this never changes.
