format. guidelines. out of line.

Rules:
don't get too attached
walk backwards
do not falsely reciprocate feelings
do not love in lists
love in lengths that stretch for miles
do your homework


I want:
the sun to stay
a way to say how i feel again
to have a tea party
time to finish The Corrections
to do my best

I need:
next to nothing

You:
go to school somewhere else now, so i miss you a lot more
eat with me at midnight and live basically next door
tell me i have nothing to worry about
strive for a connection i don't see
make me wonder what all those cute cartoon hearts were about, anyway
got me into comic books
give me funny looks
are entirely sweet and thankful, and for that I'm thankful
have so many talents
are an artist with your words, movements, life
,all of you, believe in me somehow.
