The Tale Of Two Lovers

Tell me the story of the true lovers,

Yes the ones that couldn’t live without each other,

The ones that meet under a hot Vermont sun,

With a love so strong it’s sparks could stun,

Two helpless kids enticed in each other,

Who would never forget those long days of summer,

She had a dark beauty,

Dangerous to touch,

Yet he fell for her darkness,

And could not get enough,

He came from a town of broken dreams and regrets,

Yet he was the one she said she would not forget,

They were’nt like the others,

They hated the trends,

The stupid clichés,

That consumed all her friends,

So they denounced the mainstream,

And drunk college parties,

For tumblr, hot topic,

And Tim Burton movies.

They did have their flaws,

It’s so sad to say,

Those poor fragile souls,

Who were led astray.

She had small indents,

That she had made,

Upon her petite wrist,

With a small silver blade,

He would alter his reality,

As best as he can,

By taking those drugs,

To find wonderland,

Both saw the other,

Had damage so great,

So they cared for each other,

Guided by fate,

He past the nights,

In her dorm room,

Contemplating his life,

As she would lay a snooze,

Then one night,

She began to awake,

As she opened her eyes,

To a darkness so great,

A small gleam of light,

Came through the windows,

As she saw her lover,

And heard his cries so low,

She clutched his hand,

And asked what plagued his mind,

To which he responded,

That amazing girl of mine,

She smiled and said,

So why the tears,

To which he said,

Because of my fears,

You see I’ve had past lovers,

A relationship or two,

A restless search for love,

But none of them were,

As perfect as you,

And I weep for the fear,

That you will one day realize,

That you could be so much happier,

With some other guy,

She clutched his arm tighter,

Into his eyes she calmly stared,

As she whispered soothingly,

I’m not going anywhere,

And all did seem perfect,

Both seemed quite at ease,

But there was a hellish storm brewing,

To disturb the two lovers peace.

You see as time went on,

He started to recover,

Oh how I wish I could,

Say the same for the other,

You see her depression,

Began to get even worse,

So she started to immerse herself,

In that enticing darkness of hers,

He tried to help her,

But stumbled and failed,

There was no happy ending,

To this miserable fairy tale,

They had said they’d be there for the other,

True they would always stay,

But then came that dismal September day,

When without explanation,

Racheal just walked away.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
