American Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider, is chaos for the fly.
Home is usually defined as a place where one lives, a physical structure, or where someone was born or lives for a long time. I started thinking of what home was to me. A place where I really feel safe and secure. Somewhere I find complete comfort and feel like I can really be what I am; lazy, stupid. Where I can cry and scream and laugh with complete sincerity. Where I know I can run to for a strong shelter. Where I can hide my feelings and emotions at when I leave in the morning Where there may be leaks in the ceilings or cracks in the walls, but I learn to cope and move on. Where, really, what I need to survive lies. Where I want to be all the time. Then, thinking of you, I realized home can be a person.

I've never been addicted to drugs in baggies sold on the streets, But I am addicted to one with pretty white teeth and a heart beat. He is my better half My silver lining in a sky of clouds Of my grandpa he does remind me And then I see that heaven isn't so far And I'll still love him when I'm old and grey, Because I know he wouldn't love me any other way In shared giggles and affections, His love points me in the right direction He is not where he is from, He is where he is going And I'd like to go there, too

My love
Addicted to my wicked dreams Where everything's not as it seems All these things in my head Wondering why you haven't left me for dead Just like Romeo and Juliet, This love is as tragic as it gets Star-crossed lovers Who only care when they're under covers And when you sit alone at night and feel empty, I know you feel pain and resent me It's contradicting, what you do to me Make me think you care Then just flee I wonder how you go so easily upon this All I wanted, Was your k i s s
