he doesn’t need
  me anymore
but would not
  hurt me by
    saying so

so I will clear
  a path for him
by pretending
  not to care

until he forgets
  to miss me

brighter.

i. you say my name like it was meant to be pretty. x. you told me that watching candles glow in the night was beautiful; but they are nothing compared to you. iii. you could take out my heart. you could rip it, and you could put it back together and make me into something beautiful. z. you glow the prettiest shade of silver.

I Wonder

I Wonder I wonder if five years from now, I'll still consider "Iron Man", A better movie than "Transformers"? They both rocked my world, But "Transformers" blew more shit up! On the other hand, More people died in "Iron Man" I wonder if my love affair with cheesecake, Will last until I die Seriously, I do, I'm not kidding Cheesecake turns me into a puddle of goo, Every...single...time...I...eat...it I love it more than I love me, And people, I love me a LOT! I wonder if my cats are really insane, Or if maybe they do crazy shit, Just for the fun of it I'm thinking they do it to piss me off, While I'm trying to sl

It's About You

It's About You You ask me just why, Do I love you You ask me if, I'm always thinking of you You ask me if my songs, Are about you? And I say yes, Everyone of those things is true It's not about the money, It's not about the fame, It's about how I feel, Every time I say your name I don't need a fancy house, Or platinum credit cards, Because none of that compares, To how I feel with you in my arms You ask me if, I can promise you tomorrow You ask me if, I will take away your sorrow You ask if you lead me, Will I follow? And I say yes, Because without you my life is so hollow It's not about the money, It's not about t

dear self,

1. tomorrow is not worth waiting for. sure, there will be sunshine (with a slight chance of rain) and sure, some kid will be smiling, and yes, life is still moving on, but it's not like anyone cares. 2. you just want someone to love you, misery and tears and all. maybe you could spend saturdays curled up under the covers, memorizing the patterns of breathing. maybe you could count the seconds but the problem is that there would never be enough, the problem is that there's nothing there to love. 3. no one is listening. 4. i'd write you a letter, but you'd never read it. i'm stuck screaming into my own heart, wonderin

confessions of lostwithoutyou.

i'm not a liar. but i never told you that you always looked best in black. i liked how your skin would fade to a paler shade of perfection and your perfect teeth would glint a little brighter. and i could pretend for an evening that you were my black and white dream come true. and with you there would be no shades of inbetweens and no grays for us to get lost in. i never told you but it's true.   + i was never able to tell you, but i hate the way you cook your 'specialty' eggs. you always laughed over your shoulder and told me that they are the best food i’ll ever eat, that i was blessed to get the chance to taste them melt

paint.

i told you that i liked boys who smoked cigarettes, because then i knew that they needed something. i told you that i liked roses without the thorns, because then they wouldnt hurt so much when they got picked. i told you that i liked it when you held my hands because i didnt feel quite so lonely, not quite. i told you that i'd love you 'til the stars exploded and the clouds devoured us- and you said nothing. you said nothing. *** (here's a little history.) in vietnam people hurt other people. people burned themselves- (i wish i was that brave.) they threw chemicals and hid in the ground and laughed when the others cried. its

you.

I'd say you remind me of a flower but to do so would be an injustice when I pick flowers, they die- you've only shown me how to live.

Je t'aime

There is firewood where my bones should be, and wires in my veins pumping electricity and everytime we talk my heart heats up and I've never felt a flame this warm.

Closer

too close to see, you are too close to me, an eclipsing gaze, all arms across us, i wouldn't leave, if i could go but you know this - you knew of love once you want to know again, you try to kiss me, as if drawing love out, and breathing love in, die again and again, you'd rather, than death you've almost known, too close for comfort

Literature

Not For Me, For You

not for me to feel - nothing as far as i can see, nothing close to me, my heart is deeper under, the black wells of forget, tears are the only stars i see, why do stars burn to live dreams are mute walls; sky is lost to a vapor moon - i drift, not forever is a veil i will wear to cover me from the absence of myself; i will hide behind the anonymity of trees, for you to feel left behind

She Dances With Fire

She dances with fire, a dragon in tow. Twirling with flames; graceful and slow She dances tonight, in a city of ash. Her feet leaving footprints, where the sand will splash. Quietly mourning, as time goes by; Where once she beheld a home in her eyes... Yet naught but the barest of bones remain, And so she dances, to soothe the pain.

I picture a boy into a man, leaving the nest to fly on his own two feet.
My mother was very upset when I left home, but never showed it directly.
