About Me

Je ma'pelle Melissa
i still believe in fairytales + chivalry w-h-o-l-e-h-e-a-r-t-e-d-l-y
i like to explore things outside my frame of reference.. like complicated things. [nothing is ever worth it, if it doesn't come with a little fight]
i like to leave my poetry + writings in books in hopes that someone will read it and smile.
[i am extremely shy at first, so don't give up on me]
i make mistakes. im still living and learning and im not afraid to laugh at myself. i have scars. im not any good at video games, but im an expert at getting balls thrown or kicked at me.
i've learned that more is never enough + growing is a mixure of surrendering to that... none of it matters + all of it matters. what we stand up for and what we let go of. this is the real stuff...
im a kickass strong woman.
i believe in myself. i believe in my vision. my life. my talent. my art more than anyone. i might not be there yet, but im closer than i was yesterday.
you will never know love until you surrender yourself to it.

My Interests



i love fashion + photography in the most serious way possible. i like to paint + put coins in empty parking meters + play tennis + go fishing + bowling... i love l-i-f-e
truth is im a WORK-a-holic.

I'd like to meet:



the me i know and the me i dont. someone who isnt intellectually or emotionally bankrupt. someone beautiful (not just in a superficial way) the genuinely nice. the basic. the lost. the found. the wondering. the dreamer. the believer. the brave. the staying strong. the holding on. the safe. the wisher. the glowing. the understanding. the true. the letting go. the one who loves me shamelessly.
