lost eyelashes

lets collaborate

lets put our hands together and reach for the stars

because its the only place that we both find inspiration



lets make musics

lets pluck each others heart strings until we find a melody that 

makes us both feel alive

it's been a little too long for me


lets cram our thoughts together until it sends us to the clouds

because i've been too scared to go back since my eighth grade 

teacher told me to come back down to earth

lets go back to wishing on our lost eyelashes

back when our knees were stained green

and our whole world was our backyard


lets write each other love letters

and we'll kiss the page so by the time it reaches the other

we'll always have a kiss for a rainy day


lets remember the good and the bad

the goodbyes and the hellos

and the times we ended with love, and not sincerely 

love hit the snooze

it's 3am and i'm still thinking of you

and you're probably asleep

but my heart woke me up hours ago

and there's no snooze or reset button

but i can't stop thinking about all the nights spent with you

and the many ways you made me feel even when you weren't around

all the feelings of may are still stuck with me

like the way my ears will always still recognize your laugh and my 

hands will always remember the feel of your's

i always liked the way your hands felt holding mine

sometimes i feel like i can live in those moments forever

and spend my time in a ten month old dream

that my heart isn't the only one living in the past

that it's december and that i'm not alone in my room at 3am

that love has only hit the snooze button and o only have 9 minutes 

left of this dream

i always liked myself more when i was with you

but sooner or later i have to wake up 

as much as i miss july, and as much as i long for the future

it's still just february, and it's now 4am and i'm crying

and you're still asleep

and i liked the idea of love a lot more when i was with you

but my heart woke me up hours ago

and i wonder sometimes if your's does the same

even if it feels like mine's the only one that does

because i feel like that's what two hearts in love would do

Project Journal

i wanted my journal to be distinctly mine

so i spent six hours finding all my favorite photographs and 

artwork, and put them all together on the cover of my journal

it's certainly not perfect... but every piece of it means something

to me

the songs

the song that first captured my attention
the song with a beautiful guitar melody
the song with substance



the song that's a bit country
the song that tells a story
the song that most people won't like



the songs that spoke to me
the songs i listened to all the way through
the songs that are simple
the songs that aren't most people's taste
the songs that i liked

two songs because i couldn't pick just one
