What if it wouldn't die? What if the corpse waking up inside your chest, Could breathe one more time? What if one more time didn't have to mean Another death, another axe to grind, Maybe it wouldn't have to mean Hanging your head for eternity? What would you do? Would you just breathe easy and...

Holding Out on the Truth
How do I feel like somehow I still haven't told the truth?Like there's one living being inside of me that isn't quite out?Like he's gnawing, or maybe just sleeping, but definitely inside,Waiting for me to let him out.What would happen if I were to let him out?Would he like a caged animal crawl into each...

The Simple Things
What if I don't want to write about my life to today?What if I want to write how pretty the green grass is?What if I want to write about how everyone else hatesThe wood paneling in my house, but I think it's pretty groovy?What if I want to write about how the light hits my... Continue Reading →
My Prayer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgmVOuLgFB0 "You can climb out of Hell, one inch at a time" "You're already in pain, get something out of it."

Every once in a while I'll feel like the whole world lights up and suddenly I write pages and pages and I feel like someday I'll make it, but then I blink and it fades away, and then I feel guilty for letting it. And I want to live on the edge, just to be awake.... Continue Reading →

Awesome song of the Day!
Little bit nervous about Jay-Z producing The Great Gatsby Soundtrack, but this song is AH-Mazing. Florence and the Machine is my favorite singer 😀 Link: Over the Love
The puzzle pieces
She woke again, reminding me, "I'm not hard hearted." I see the face of those in need, And long that they be comforted. I long, not only that others Will come, but churn with desire To come myself to my brothers, To deny my own hearts sire. But the twist in a deep found root,... Continue Reading →
The Long Lost Love
Penelope glides across a railing As she watches the tumultuous sea. Cloud masses rise above, pierced as lightning Cuts across the night's looming ebony. As her blackened hair turns, sad eyes appear, And gaze into the distance wistfully, For the long lost love who had once been here, But had sailed these long years restlessly.... Continue Reading →
The Nights Onset
The sea raged, and folded in at my door, Pounding until I couldn't hear a thing, I asked for you to give just one breath more, And you surged inside with my own blessing. I dodged as you engulfed the sight you found- The withered one bracing self like a tree And wavering in the... Continue Reading →
