Poetry On Odyssey: I Want

I want something where I don't have to worry about if he actually cares about me, but where he shows me daily he does.

Poetry On Odyssey: I Want

I want something where I don't have to worry about it he actually cares about me but where he shows me daily he does.

Something where I'm not the first one to call or text all the time, he does, because he knows how anxious I get.

Something where I can be me without worrying if he'll actually like me and not just my body.

Is it hard to ask for a man who will repair my heart that long ago broken by a father who forgot?

Is it too much to expect no cheating or lies, but instead honesty and communication?

Something without all the drama, yelling, screaming, shouting, and crying.

How can anything that is truly love hurt both of us so much?

To the point of pushing, hitting, biting, fighting.

None of that is anything I would ever want.

I want something where our smiles are everything to each other, where we tease and kiss.

It doesn't all fall apart because we aren't constantly having sex.

I want it real, all of it.

I want the constant emotions, the passion, the heat, the longing, and above all the respect.

We respect each other for everything we do no matter how big or little it seems to the other.

I want a relationship where even through the ups and downs, he'll take care of me and I'll take care of him.

One where we can go out or stay in and either way we'll be happy because we are there together.

Something where we don't care about all the superficial stuff because there are so many other things to care about.

In the end, the only thing that matter is us.

I want something that neither of us ever stops trying to make better, we know that to make love last you have to put in work.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition

I just know that the idea of releasing vault tracks came out of the moment Taylor remembered she wrote 'Is It Over Now?'

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition
Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."
