Favorite Quote:
"For after all, the best thing one can do when it is raining is to let it rain." -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow


I kissed you so hard your lip bled 

In the back of your mom's old minivan

 

And I didn't love you;

No, I didn't even taste you

Until that blood reached my trembling tongue

 

And I cried later that night,

For the smell of blood had always reminded me of him

 

I can't scrape my knee or get a bloody nose

Without you rushing to my head

 

And though our nights were spent in ice-cold winter,

My thoughts of you and blood pour on like summer rain
