I am interested juggling. Not rubber balls or chainsaws but life. Juggling school, family and the internship. Plus, I want God in all of it. Easy...right?

Nervous about perfect girl

Ok, well I am kinda nervous about doing this, but I am going to ask the most perfect girl in the world out to subway today. She, well she is perfect to me, thus, the title of this blog.
-
Ummm, I wrote her this poem during first service, and I hope she likes it. I still have the tattered journal paper I wrote it on, and I am crazy nervous. In case you didn't know, perfect girl, has been the subject of many of my poems so far. So, I hope you don't read this before I read it to you in person perfect girl.

Perfect Girl:
Please dont read this yet! Just stop reading! Yes, I am typing to you!
-
Everyone else:
Pray I don't pass out.

Ode to perfection (Know I am just happy to see you))
-
No matter how many compliments, awards or aspirations
Uncertainties, setbacks, and fate's cruel limitations
No matter when, where, why or what I do
Know that I am just happy to see you
-
Stinging orange air freshener up my nose
Sharpie doodles all over my clothes
The pool water tightens our jeans
My eyes on you, are filled with chlorine
-
When your eyes hurt after you have just wept
When your tired because of how little you slept
No matter when, where, why or what I do
Know that I am just happy to see you
-
When you feel heavy, remember to me your as light as a feather
When you havent even had breakfast, and are feeling under the weather
-
When you are
happy
sad
ecstatic
mad
amazing
tired
talented
wired
-
When we spend time together, time I always savor* (pronounced gangster - sav.ah.)
Always know I am happy to see you, my gorgeous and perfect, perfect girl.
-
It is really hard to rhyme things with your name.
it is worth it though.
