Getting Lost

I definitely got lost
in those blue eyes 
of yours today

I'm getting lost in
the whirlwind of
the unexpected, 
the pleasant surprise
that is you.

I'm getting lost in
the feeling of
giddiness and
involuntary smiles,
that I just can't stop.

I'm getting lost in
hope and I can't
help but feel like
this feeling of falling
might be exactly right.

the spoon theory & borrowing spoons

is it so bad
that i want to use up
so many spoons on you?

i know im
running out of them
and i know theyre
running out quickly.

but if i keep borrowing
spoons meant for tomorrow
and the next day...
and into winter
would it be so bad?

maybe the crash would
be worth is when im
having so much fun
being overloaded
with you.

wisconsin state fair

sun burning
food aromas
wafting around
my head
until it fills
my brain

bug tacos
with too much
sauce
heavy dishes
wrapped in foil
dairy everywhere

cows
cows
cows
cows

Costco Margarita

Too sweet
Costco margarita
Too strong
Up
Up
Up
Straight to my head

Soft evenings
In the summer
Warmth everywhere
Not just from the sun
