Inheriting

The story is not really mine to tell, but I'll tell it anyway. This is the way it goes:
Back in 2009, Lindsey and Emma used to joke with each other; Lindsey wanted bigger boobs, and Emma always said "Take mine!" Now, if you've known Lindsey for awhile (and have been hanging out with her friends who notice things like this) you might have noticed, like we all did, that Lindsey's boobs grew like crazy over the summer. Inheritance? Maybe so.

I think I got a similar strange gift. Hats.

I can't get enough of them! Since the summer, my hat collection has quadrupled. I had one hat before...which I never even wore. Now I boast 5 hats. =] I just bought this floppy pink one yesterday, I was so excited! Emma gave me her hat craze, I really can't get enough of them!

Villanelle

I wrote this villanelle for AP Lit.






Sail off to sleep.
Remember me as you close your eyes,
and for this moment do not weep.

In your memories closely keep
all that we’ve done, our loves, our lies,
now sail off to sleep.

Softly now the winds fall and sweep
to hush your fears and calm your cries
and for this moment do not weep.

All I’ve been, your heart will reap,
through all death’s faint disguise
so sail off to sleep.

The night holds your dreams; let your heart leap,
Let rest give rise
And for this moment do not weep.

No longer lost; carry on, your soul is deep.
Stay strong, my love, withstand my goodbyes.
Sail off to sleep,
and for this moment do not weep.
