the girl

Mabel Q.
the girl who usually writes about sadness, and broken hearts, and that one stupid boy
the girl who hates the color orange but loves sunsets
and loves the color white but hates snow
the girl who hates goodbyes but loves hellos
the girl who loves surfing but is terrified of sharks
the girl whose too afraid to talk to any of the popular people in class but just wants to fit in
the girl who wants everything to be perfect but is far from it herself
the girl who loves laughing
the girl who loves talking but hates the sound of her own voice
the girl whose too loud in class
and too quiet in church
the girl who loves road trips but can't sit still for more than 5 minutes
the girl whose best friends are the ones related by blood
the girl who is scared to go back to Paris, or London or wherever the heck she came from because she's still not sure
the girl who puts "I don't know" on college applications because she still doesn't know who she is or what she wants to be
this ones for you mabel,
the one whose been there when no one else has
the one who won't share my secrets unless i press "publish"
thank you
xox,
Lauren Wright
the girl behind Mabel Q.
