This Babe in Vegas by Seraiah


...............






yes, that's me, the bottle red-head looking like she's ready to take over the world.

there aren't enough stars in this city. i don't think that there are enough stars in the world. i haven't seen a butterfly for months, and i ran out of faery dust. the gods don't respond to my burnt offerings anymore, but my mom says they just smell up the house, anyway. i tried to go to church, but i had nothing to wear. i tried to make new friends, but they've all gone away and on.
there aren't enough stars in this city. i think i dropped something, but i don't know what it is. i went looking and i sat on the sidewalk to cry, but my guardian/best friend/only friend/lover/everything (yes, everything) got scared and said he'd set me free. i've worked too hard to be let go so quickly.
wait for me, will you?
i'm not quite sure what i am looking for in life, besides red hair, ben and jerry, a diploma, a starry sky, a little whipped cream, and some strawberries. i'd love to lay with you on a blanket and play the cloud game or the truth game or laura's game or just lay with me (no game).
you see, if i thought it would help, i'd write you a letter or call you on the phone, but i'm too ashamed.
boys hurt.
drunken ims are my only confessions. forgive me, jason. forgive me, alexander. forgive me, liz and john. i'm sorry.
