to do

lets order an unnecessary amount of take out from the Thai place on main street and play in the snow without gloves or shoes

lets go on a drive up the canyon without taking a single picture and make memories that only we know about

lets go to prom wearing our moms’ old dresses and dance like no one is watching (because they arent)

lets talk about how much it hurt when he walked away with your heart in his hand and how he didn’t even look back as he tossed it carelessly over his shoulder 

lets get so caught up in the moment that we can’t remember what day it is

lets blast music and scream the wrong lyrics and dance with our hands out the rolled down windows and lets pretend that it’s not below freezing outside

lets fall in love with strangers and everyone else

lets break the rules no one ever bothered to write down

lets cry until there’s no salt left in our bodies and lets laugh until it becomes the only thing we know how to do

l e t s   e v e r y t h i n g

because there’s still so much to do

but time’s running out
and i am too
