The name's Savannah, and I'm hella gay. I'm a writer, painter, and I live to read. I'm weird and my social skills are seriously lacking. I think too much and talk too little, I frequently engage in full frontal nerdity, I have a VERY dirty sense of humor, and I make way too many 'that's-what-she-said' jokes.
Come lay under the stars with me, Listening to Stevie sing the songs That seem like they were written just for us. Come play with me, When I want to feel young again. Catch me, catch me, catch me if you can. Then lay on the floor with me When our heaving lungs Remind us that we're no longer 10 years old. Come curl up with me On this couch, under this blanket, And watch this movie with me. I know you wont complain, Even though we've watched it a million times. Come sing with me in the bathtub As we give each other shampoo Mohawks And bubble bath beards. Sing to me my favorite song And I'll sing to you that lullaby you like. Come lay in bed with me When our day is done. I want to curl up with you, Even though this bed is huge You know I will always end up Right on your side by morning But you never seem to mind.

Dream Girl
Breathe...Breathe...Breathe... Don't leave me alone... I feel like I'm coming out of my skin... Suffocation is such a sorry way to go. Breathe...Breathe... Please save me... The water's getting deep and I can't swim. Breathe... I can't breathe.

Breathe
She feels herself teetering on the edge of an abyss, yet she can't bring it out of herself to care. Looking down into the empty, black darkness, she finds herself feeling curiosity. Not fear. She wonders what would come of herself if she took that tiniest step forward. Sitting there on the edge, dangling her feet against the jagged, broken edges- scraping. She feels, for lack of a better word, content. Danger nor safety touch her in this moment. Of course, in the back of her mind, she knows that one small push off and she will fall. Fall into free darkness, liberated. The small white light that illuminated where she once stood becoming a faint memory as it grows smaller and smaller, eventually being extinguished from her sight. She would close her eyes and feel as though she were weightless. The numbness this moment would hold runs through her veins as she stares out into the all consuming blackness, mentally taking that final jump, the last leap of faith. Physically grasping onto anything that will hold, needing to feel it's solidness on the earth, something to draw strength from. A life line. Standing there on the edge of an end, she finds a beginning.

Into The Abyss
Wake me up when this life is over. It's not worth the time it takes to learn how to survive. Wake me up when this lifetime ends Just another notch in the bedpost of time Paging Mister Sandman to take me away into a sleep an escape to wake when it is over Wake me up.

Wake me up
Some days I feel like I'm floating outside of my own body. This unsettling feeling of not being all there... Some days I feel as though I'm weighed to the ground. Like anchors tied to my feet... Some days I feel like I'm floating on a cloud nothing and no one could bother me... But some days I feel nothing. This big void inside of me.. Black hole of nothing turning in on itself... yes... Some days I feel Nothing A lot.

Some days
Split my skin open make me feel your pain. Who made you hurt so bad, baby? All the anger and un-shed tears you keep bottled up are about to explode. Break me open when you hurt cut into me with your words let them flow out of you and into me I will make you Whole again.

Whole Again
The heat laps at her skin, and now she can't breathe again. Play with fire and you'll only get hurt, but no one know she likes the burn. Blistered flesh warps her skin, playing as battle scars against the war within herself. Winning at a losing game is no Victory.

No Man's Land
Pull the plug before it gets too deep. Keep up with the flow, it's rising steep. You wouldn't want to drown Before you had the chance to swim.

I Never Learned How to Swim
Every time I move I can feel you on my skin- burned into my flesh Kiss me- bite me- hold me close I want to feel you again fresh- just under my skin. I can feel you when I sleep. Your hands- Your lips- Pressed against me. Bruise me- Mark me- Make me yours. I want to feel you from wherever you are.

Love Bite
People underestimate the importance of a Sunrise Sun and clouds painted a shade of fire you wouldn't believe. Passing by seemingly lifeless houses Where in their darkness, There are the dreamers. Illusions flood through them like blood Coursing hot through veins. Alive.
