honestly probably listening to 90's music
After all this time, you still haven’t left my mind I still spend every moment wondering if you’re thinking of me too. After all this time I still torture myself thinking that you’ll call or maybe text and I just stare at my phone for hours. After all this time I know I shouldn’t. but I still love you and I’m still yours.

After All This Time
no offense mom but i don’t want to exist anymore i want to disappear into the sky thanks for raising me but the world is turning on me. i'm going up there, the big magical cloud castle that is somewhere between the stars in the sky. i'll be with you and thats where i belong. we will be up upon the world so high sparking like diamonds in the sky. i'm leaving you and this is goodbye.

Memories of you and i burn into my mind like a wild fire, leaving my brain scorched and covered in thick dark ash. Seeing you turns my eyes into a river after the rain, over flowing and flooding the plains. You ripped my heart into microscopic pieces like it was paper, you did it so effortlessly. You are gone and whole, I am here and falling apart.

The aftermath of you
I only smoke at night because, in the daytime i can see what i'm doing to myself.

Why can't I be happy? Is it because i don't know what i want? I don't know if i want to be alone or in a crowd. I don't know if i want to be in quite or where it is loud.   Is it because i don't know where i want to be? I don't know if i want to be with you or with someone new. I don't know if i want to be in a club or in a church pew. Is it because i don't know what it is like to be me? I don't know what i like, who i want, or where i would like to be. So, how can i be happy if i don't know myself? Or even have thoughts of ending myself? I assume that i cannot be happy. Maybe this is me.

Numb Isn't The Same/10w
I no longer remember the number of freckles on your shoulders the shape and place of every mole. I no longer remember your lips in longing or *** twice in one day. I no longer remember my soul bound by nothing lying awake alone eyes closed tightly on an ice cold January morning.

habits.
If I were to say; the devil & god both rage within, I would render myself dishonest. For despite blind faith you have never heard me surrender, to the devil or god. The agnostic in me did surrender, to a name still unknown. An internal war battles of wills I so fought pleading & praying; *save me from what I have so become.* A war rages within thirsty blood red, slaughter a house for the dead. I fall at your feet, lick the blood splashed & spilled; a slaughterhouse will never be a clean resting place. I kneel; genuflect at the shrine of gods & monsters. I whisper; *What will be? What will become of me?* Laughing, spitting, in the face of anguished despair. A war rages within. Nor devil nor god may see, I am yours for slaughter, surrendered for you in this wasteland my mind created when you were first gone. © Sia Jane "I’ll be your slaughterhouse, your killing floor, your morgue and final resting, walking around with this           bullet inside me."

Slaughterhouse
Sleep is sometimes, just a way of escaping. You don’t have to be constantly reminded of the things that went wrong. You don’t have to think of all the memories and the things you left unsaid. Just for a little while, you are unaware of all the things that make you sad. You are in a state of calmness, a place where you don’t worry about anything. But, the second you wake up everything is brought back to the sad reality. You suddenly remember where you are and all the things that have happened.
