Bucket List

I want to wave at a stranger and smile as they stare.

I want to call an old friend to have a meaningless conversation and laugh till our lungs hurt.

I want to be recklessly in love. just to feel the ripples of my heart beat, just to get hurt.

I want to talk about it to someone over coffee.

I want that coffee to be bitter so that the memory compliments it.

I want to stay up all night reading a book and mourning the loss of my favorite character.

I want those lyrics to remind me of a lover.

I want to keep the letters, movie tickets and key chains just to be reminded of little things.

I want to write all my fears down and send it into the sea in a bottle and watch it float away.

I want to make jokes and argue with someone witty.

I want to travel somewhere far just to feel homesick.

I want to paint this moment just to remember who I was.
