this is how you know i want you.

by AVA.

i swear i knew your voice before i ever even heard it. you sounded like home.

i am sitting in the sun. i am falling asleep. i take a drag. i dream of you. of your hands. your lips. your eyes. everything. everything. everything.

my insecurities are getting the best of me and i want to give my best to you. but sometimes i am too much in my own mind. i make up something. i push you away. and i hope you don't change your mind.

i tend to destroy things i'm afraid of. i tend to destroy things that i love. things i don't believe i’m deserving enough.

let your love cover me like skin. i want the whole world to see.

june 13, 2013. i pay attention to you more than i pay attention to anything. everything you do is infectious. everything you do is new to me. how can someone's laugh be so lovely and different every single time? earlier, when you held my hand at the theater, i found a new scar and you leaned in and told me: it doesn't hurt anymore and it will never hurt again.
