I keep trying to give up on you.
Did you know that?
Most nights,
my heart pounds at the bars of my chest
like a prisoner due for parole,
and I have to deliberately try
to stop believing in you.
But I can't,
and if you think that's my fault,
stop waltzing around my mind,
& carrying rainy days in your pockets.
You must know by now that innocent hearts won't stop believing in:
1. boys (with bedroom eyes)
A. & dress shirts.
You are everything, happy birthday.
