My crush on you is crushing
the heart of my heart, inside my insides,
where your will will become law,
where your wishes wish they could hide.

- You: Do you believe in love at first sight?
- Me: It happens to certain boys.
- You: Which ones?
- Me: The ones that see you.
You don’t like the way I sneeze.
It’s too loud and dramatic.
When you said this,
I was devastated.
I thought if you could dislike
something so basic,
so essential to my being,
then you must not love me.
But love is not liking
everything about a person,
like the sounds they make when eating
or the location of each freckle.
Love is not liking someone’s sneeze
and staying with them just the same.
I’m a flirt because practice makes perfect. I have to be ready to impress whenever she—the one—appears.
Tonight’s song is for the beautiful Megan at fffcuk. In some of her pics her tongue is colored like she was eating a lollipop. So I wrote this love song just for her. — Kavalier Calm
Lollipop
Hey, lollipop, you make my head hot,
and I want you to color my tongue.
Darlin’, I know you’re sweet,
so give that sugar to me.
I promise I will take it slow;
I won’t bite unless you want me to.
CHORUS
Dum-dum, I know you’re smart,
so say you’ll give me your heart.

The blogger at christiannolen14 requested a song for his girlfriend. He said: “She has depression and I want her to know I’ll make every day better than the last.” Let her know, friend, with this song and with words of your own. Free downloads (just enter $0 as the price) are available here. Much love. — Kavalier Calm
My girl has a dark edge.
If she were a dish,
you’d say she’s spiced with sadness.
It’s subtle, hidden under
her laughter and smiles,
hidden under the expected.
Not everyone sees her truth,
and I am grateful to be one of few
because this layer is her—
is her.
Glimpses of it feel like balancing
at the edge of a terrible abyss,
and I am divided deeply by the desire
to run away
or jump in.
You: Why do you write so much?
Me: I’m trying to save memories.
You: Memories of what?
Me: You.
For Shelby
Have you ever been in a love that everyone doubts?
Well, not everyone. Everyone except you and your lover—
the outsiders—those who pretend they are insiders,
those who pretend they know how your heart quickens
when your lover enters the room,
those who pretend they understand how you consider not breathing
when your lover leaves the room.
Outsiders cannot be insiders.
Outsiders are like the sea,
and love is a sand castle.
The sea envies the beauty of sand castles
because it cannot make them on its own.
And so we must build our castles carefully,
so they can weather waves of doubt.
The sun kissed my neck today,
then I kissed yours.
Was the summer heat in my mouth
what made you ask for more?
Tonight’s song “Reflex” is for Katy at can-i-waste-all-your-time. She told me she’s in a love that she shouldn’t be in, but she can’t help herself. You could say she responds to this boy like a reflex, like cause and effect…Thanks for inspiring me, Katy. Enjoy listening, friends. Much love. — Kavalier Calm
- You: Are you afraid to say you'll love me forever?
- Me: No. Forever doesn't seem long enough.
