c’est la vie

August 4, 2009

life is strange.

what i thought would be a big move to another state and leaving all my friends has turned into:

feeling less guilty about little fights with my best friend/twin

trying to figure out where to live, where I won’t feel restless

staying on longer at a coffee house that could eventually lead to the demise of my mental state

butterflies in my stomache when a certain someone kisses me

the need to listen to depressing music less and less

doubts and worries that are strangely enough accepted with open arms

being annoyed when you don’t call soon enough

and a scared feeling that this most certainly couldn’t last this long.

not with how wonderful it is.

 

 

lost cause

July 17, 2009

I’m your lost cause of good intentions

a dark ugly bruise

a crushed hand that punched the floor

nothing you would ever want.

‘Fine by me!’ I’ll scream at fate

as she cuts another cord, slams and locks all the doors

leaving me nothing but broken window glass to use

You’re just one more reminder of everything I hate 

about myself, bound all my demons and tossed them around

are you fulfilled now?

But darling, why so quiet,

why so grave? 

I’ve merely laid in the ground all the havoc you 

have made, all the evil you exposed 

in some quest for purity

laughter is the only response when you yell and beat your chest

in some resounding chord of this isn’t right

in some christian man’s fight to be honest and worthy

respected and righteous.

well who would respect such a lowly soulless needful thing

you’re just a drum without a beat

and lost cause without a plea.

Restless

June 18, 2009

You use to be everything and I filled up my day with some Christian Satisfaction

praising and praying oh GOD how I could pray

everyday and about everything

no body was so holy and I could sleep so easily with eyes closed and feel so self preserved

with every word that would come out of my mouth and grace my god I was so proud of myself

It’s much harder now to find any rest or relief but at least my eyes are partially open

though my jaw is torn my body is worn

God

You’re the ache in my bones and the tatter in my clothes but you are real

as I smoke and I drink and lose sleep you are real

yet you’re everything I cannot feel and I’d take this everyday over what I thought I felt

but it was merely the touch of religious hands paralyzing me as the poison slowly seeped in

and me unaware and so fucking prepared to live a life with closed eyes sleeping

with dreams of pretty churches and boys who truly love you so they believe as they

take off girls clothes in the name of self-control their god forgiving everything they do

so break hearts and live peacefully in sweet undisturbed dreams

I can’t sleep.

Not with my face in the ground and ashes on my head

God is everyone dead

or are they paralyzed their bodies turning into liquid

no longer useful but for filling up wine glasses disguised as your love

“This is my blood. Take”

O God we Take and we Take and we Take

so much more what else can we acquire for our selfish desires

to be achieved from this religious belief so we sink in our teeth

and draw out all we can and there is no empty mouth

then we sleep.

Thank God I feel so restless.

My God

June 18, 2009

You’re so Hollow

and depending on you is like searching for life in an empty room

You’re still Dead

Those three days were too much to take

not that you are to blame

Because I would have given up sooner

since there is not way in Hell

I’m worthy of being with you anyway

My God

If you have this world inside your hands

I’d rather you just let me go

I feel to unclean to be touched by you

So I’d prefer you leave me alone.

Suck it up

June 10, 2009

“love is spiders on the edge and we’re connected by a thread”

When do you realize that your outlook on life is sad? when your best friend tell you so. When you’re sitting on a porch smoking in the twilight and feeling like you’re going to throw up because you realize you just don’t want to feel good about yourself.

Who said cuts on an arm is the only way to punish yourself?

nothing much

May 19, 2009

“they’re just little cuts. No big deal”

What do you say to that when it’s the last person you expected to hear it from?

And why am I so selfish that I overlook the things that really need attention and bask in ignorant self-involved conversations that can so easily be seen for what they are. shallow.

i love my friends and time spent with them drinking, smoking, laughing, and watching the guys get down and dirty with their whorish dancing.

and sitting outside on the front porch with my vodka and cloves,  it’s clear that sometimes you can do nothing but whisper a prayer of “i don’t know what to do” over and over again and hope that he can hear you.
