sometimes my heart hurts

I'm a dreamer and I'm naive and I'm selfish and I talk too much. I like hugs and people make me feel better. I think it's better to watch and not open your mouth. I'm lonely I'm useless I'm sometimes not really there. I think the world is beautiful I think the world is harsh I think the world is unfair. I smile I laugh I hope and I think about gravity and how it's always trying to keep us down. Does gravity know I can fly?

catch me
catch me
catch me
i can't wait to see you

i would love to wake up to
you every morning,
to be quite honest.

university is such an ugly word
for such a pretty person,
don't you think?
i like how you talk in riddles
but they aren't really riddles to me

they're you.

catch me if i'm falling. catch me because i'm falling down on you.

I think when you're young, all you want to be is to be noticed. Seven letters, two syllables. That's why we dye our hair crazy colors and get drunk at parties. That's why we sleep with someone we're not in love with and it's why we buy things we don't need. Because all you can think about is, hey, this is going to make me cool. Noticed. Popular. Loved. Adored. I'll have people I can depend on.

But people lie and people cheat and people steal, but they do this all while trying to be there for you but they are not. They're just not there because they're out there lying cheating stealing their way through life.

Maybe when I'm old I'll look back on my life as a teenager and think, you know what? I did a pretty fucking good job for being so screwed throughout life.

And maybe when I'm old I'll finally appreciate who I am and who my friends are and the people I love and the boyfriends and the best friends and the strangers. Because right now, I don't. I don't appreciate you. I can't depend on you. So I'm screwed and I did a pretty fucking good job.

You know how in high school they tell you how important a college essay is? They say it's going to get you in the best universities in the state. They say, you need to show your true colors. YOU NEED TO SHOW WHO YOU ARE. But I can't because they never taught me to say who I really am. They taught me how long an indent is and how long journalistic style paragraphs should be and hey, you know, I don't give a fuck about your writing as long as you write by the book. By the book of words and oxford commas and periods and semicolons (my favorite of the english language) and parentheses. So, I lost where I was going, but I think I was talking about writing about yourself.

Hi, my name is Katherine and I have the stupidest most ignorant
Hi, my name is Kat and I wish I could be someone else when I'm writing this but fuck it, I cna;t. And I should n't say fuck either because this is probably a big time college professor reading this and thinking, fuck she's not going to go anywhere. But I will go somewhere and YOU'LL SEE MY FACE. I promise.
Hi, my name is Katherine and you want me to write about who I am. Okay, I can do that. My name is Katherine. It's nice to make you acquaintance, I don't know who I am yet but when I do, because I will and you should, I'll let you know.

Maria says she's dying, through the door I hear her crying. Why? I don't know.
Round here we always stand up straight. Round here something radiates.
Well, Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand. Said she'd like to meet a boy who looks like Elvis. And she walks along the edge of where the ocean meets the land, like she's walking on a wire in the circus.
She parks her car outside of my house and takes her clothes off. Says she's close to understanding jesus.
She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood and she has trouble acting normal when she's nervous.
She said it's only in my head. She said shh, I know it's only in my head.
But the girl on the car in the parking lot says, hey man you should take a shot. Can't you see my walls are crumbling? And she looks up at the building, says she's thinking of jumping. Says she's tired of life. She must be tired of something.

"

I’m the ghost in the bed.you can touch because i can’t rest. and the lights are always off so I can mold you in the dark.i can shape and pretend.”i just want to have a good time, just like everybody else, but i don’t want to fall apart.

"

whisper babe..i’m as good as it gets in this town.whisper babe..i’m a fever you can’t sweat out. these are my deepest thoughts and secrets under a microscope or under a spotlight.forgive me if i’m not quite ready to give them to you.it’s just such a different feeling..when i see you smiling and singing back to me,i’m still playing different pictures in my head that aren’t so pleasant.i’m doing my best now to live in the song and not just the meaning…

"

 
The moon bred new Atlantic life tonight.the salt burned you right out of my eyes.and secrets we’re not proud of were taken with the tide. We were all newborns with blurred vision and no sense of direction.
Today I saw cancer, cigarettes and shortness of breath.
this is why I walk to the ocean.swim with jellyfish.I may never get this chance again.
this is why if you want to kiss you should kiss.
If you want to cry you should cry, and
if you want to live you should live.
You don’t have to love me. You already did. At least enough to keep me smiling from South Carolina to Virginia.it’s for lovers (orjustfriends) This is why I do it.
my favorite memory of you

is racing to their house
and we were running on the street
and it was winter
i didn't win
but i felt really alive

and i bet you didn't even know that

"What happens to us when we die: an informal poll.
Theory #1: The Christians are right. There's a big guy with a white robe and a long, flowing beard and a devil with a pitchfork, and depending on whether you've been bad or good, you'll wind up playing a harp with the angels or burning in the everlasting fires of hell, both of which sound sucktastic.
Theory #2: The Jews are right, and when you die there's nothing, so you better have gotten plenty to eatin this life.
Theory #3: The Muslims are right, and I am in for serious black-eyed virgin time. Then again, I've got black eyes and am a virgin, so I may be in some serious trouble once I kick.
Theory #4: The Buddhists and Hindus are right. This life is one of many. You just go on working through your karmic baggage until you get it right. So be nice to that cockroach. That could be you someday.
Theory #5: The UFO crazies are right, and we are all one big experiment for a race of superaliens who like to sit around in the alien aquivalent of the Barcalounger, sipping a brew and watching those wacky humans get up to the nuttiest sorts of hijinks. And when we buy the farm, they swoop down in the mother ship and take us back to Planet Z and the primordial ooze.
Theory #6: Nobody knows shit."

i know better not to be friends with boys with girlfriends

when i first met you i knew you were the one
till you took me home and i met her
she had your boxers on
she was listening to your song
and i thought right then that you had everything


but i knew
she was jealous from the start
yeah i knew
she was jealous from the start


'cus i know better not to be friends with boys with girlfriends
oh i know better than that i know better
you play the victim and i'll be the bad guy
i know better than that, i know better


we started hanging around after 9
i couldve sworn that i was yours
you looked at me and said
its a little too late for bed
we went to a hotel and
talked about everything


but i knew
she was jealous from the start
yeah i knew
she was jealous from the start




cos i know better not to be friends with boys with girlfriends
oh i know better than that i know better
you play the victim and i'll be the bad guy
i know better than that, i know better




YOU PLAY THE VICTIM AND I'LL BE THE BAD GUY.

"i'm not mad. i just hate you right now."
please don't tell me i'm yours you're mine you just wont admit it.
note to self: guys lie. guys live. guys aren't always totally worth it. but some don't, some really do, and some are.
i guess i need to learn how to differentiate between them?
you've seen me without make up on and looking more beautiful than i ever have, i know because you told me..
but i know better not to be friends with boys with girlfriends.

i'll run from him with no conviction,
why do i not see you anymore?
i'm just a misguided ghost.

if you miss me, don't say you don't. if you miss me, don't be the boy you said you would never end up being.

we are just misguided ghost traveling and listening, ones we trusted the most, pushed us far away.

and if you want to kiss me, kiss me in front of everyone, not behind closed doors. because i'm tired of sneaking around to be with you.



i'm not going to say i love you in front of everyone. don't put me on the spot.


let's make this year one to remember, okay?


don't make me spill my heart out on a fucking blog
