so this is super cheesy...but i decided to sit down and write and this is what came out


"i love you, but how does this work?"
that question burdens us everytime we speak
you are a realist and can only come back to
those thoughts,
and although I am a dreamer and wish to take
chances without looking at reprecutions
I must say your realist ways are making me think
about the "how's?" and "what's"
maybe I'll take a job that i hate
maybe I'll push paper all day,
maybe I'll kiss my bosses ass,
maybe I'll put up with meaningless water cooler conversations
maybe I'll drink coffee in the morning
maybe I'll have a bank account,
maybe I'll wake up and go to sleep at a certain time,
maybe
just maybe I will do the very thing I hate so much,

follow a routine.

after all i am 20 and you are 24,
ohh..fuck that,
i don't know,
no matter how much i want a solution,
I can't completely drown out the dreamer in me,
I want to leave town and pick apples for a living,
the other night i saw on t.v where they have apple trees,
right outside of new york city,
maybe after i become the best apple picker in the world,
maybe I'll make my way to maine,
and fish for clams all day (can a girl do that?)
maybe i'll learn more about the ocean,
and a few fisherman songs so I can humm to it the rest of my life,
and after i'm done learning what it means to be a fisherman,
i'll make my way towards california,
stopping off at little towns with awkward names along the way,
getting to learn a little bit of everything before i become anything with you,
maybe i just want to be perfect,
and the most well rounded thing you've ever held,
maybe i just want to live my dream,
maybe I don't give a fuck about any of that stuff,
maybe I'll just pack my bags and come give you a hug,
maybe you'll be happy and maybe you'll ask me to stay,
maybe you'll hate me and maybe you'll tell me to leave,
maybe I'm just a dreamer and that's all i will ever be,
no matter what the how's and what's,
I'm going to follow my heart.
see you soon.

As one who's about to walk away from a fantastic relationship (because I know I need to throw myslef at the universe, just me, alone) this really hit me. Thanks.

That was like fast forwarding through an entire section of an ongoing internal debate from ones life. Fun to read - set to music it would make a great short.

Nice!
