Bwog advises you to beware of 19 theory…

There are people around me who love me
It’s my birthday, and people are gathered around to celebrate
White foundation begins to cake my face as I continue to get ready
The buzzy lights that reside in the dorms of Carman Hall residents illuminate my friends faces
So joyous to have the privilege to be around me
And yet, all I can think about is you

To be 19, or not to be
I was jokingly told that 19 is the worst age. I was told to prepare for the worst, stay away from any romantic prospects,
And unfortunately the first thing that came to my mind was you
The air around you that seems to dissipate when you enter a room
How easy it is to be in your space and miss you before you even leave my vicinity
How much I wish we weren’t separated by a sea of states because you still make me feel warm all the while

So, to hell with 19 theory!
Just live your life
