If you really knew me
you'd know that I like Winter more than Summer
Because there's something about being warm
when it's cold
You'd know that I really like the song
Come on Eileen
And that they didn't play it at prom
You'd know that what I think people think
And what they actually think
Are very different.
You'd know that "I'm secretly in love with Alta June"
You'd know that I like slow songs
Because the beat matches my heart better
You'd know that I think Nelson
Is just an older version of me
But more bald.
You'd know that I still ask my mom for advice on girls
You'd know that I don't know
To say how I feel
Without feeling guilty
You'd know that I've spent most of my nights
Getting ready to go somewhere
With friends who haven't invited me yet.
You'd know that I've done a lot of waiting
You'd know that I waited for three years to tell her
How I feel
You'd know that I can't sleep with socks on
You'd know that the majority of my hikes
Are spent bushwhacking
You'd know that after high school
I probably won't have a social life
And I'm ok with that
Sort of
You'd know that I care a lot about people I don't know
And I really do care about you
Because I believe that people are good
You'd know that I didn't reach my peak
Because this is high school
I'm 18.
You'd know that ending blog posts are hard for me
And that saying goodbye
Is something I try to avoid
But I guess it's inevitable
So thanks
And
Good luck to you
-Charlie
