what would it be like if i carried that knowledge around
like i do the knowledge that i am a writer

less worried
would i buy more shoes or fewer
would i be more or less afraid

would you have fallen in love with me sooner
would i have frightened you away
before you had the chance? — Francesca Lia Block
