While seas drown sailors,

I’m Ana. It’s not a cute name. I could listen to Death Cab for Cutie for days on end, in fact, I do frequently. I have urges to go places. I want to go for the longest walk there ever was, and have it stay dusk forever. I’ll walk and walk, and the stars will never fully come out, but I’ll still look forward to it. I want to get all my closest friends, jump in a car, and drive so far no one will know where we’re from. I miss so many things that happened long ago, it’s not even worth mentioning, but mostly I miss just being able to muck around, without people making a big deal. Summer for a day is the nicest way to skip school. I love video calls. I want a thousand books to line my walls, so I can just breath in the words, and the memories, and the emotions. Books smell like time. They don’t gather dust, they gather memories. I like tidying my room at half two, and I like being able to walk without breaking things. Winter is grey, and cold, and quiet. I never want to leave the house, and that’s why I love it. If you come to my house, write a note and stick it on my wall. I’ll even give you sticky notes. I love letters. Lick-n-stick stickers taste good. M&Ms are nicest when eaten in good company. A little nostalgia is all it takes for me to tear up. I like sweet things. Sweet notes, sweet songs, sweet tea, sweet people. I love my family most of the time. Lily is a darling. My friends at school are wonderful, they let you be who you are, not who they think you should be. I’d like someone to give me flowers, I think. I love peace and quiet, and lazy days.

Do you know me yet?
