I have found nothing but happiness in the time that I have been away. In the garden of orchids I learnt to scream in color painting pictures in vivid technicolor. I learnt to laugh with my tongue sticking out much like this orchid, I wasn't always this happy but now... I have found a wave of calm like no other. I no longer get mad thinking about you instead when your name visits the corners of my mind. I open that tiny door and mellow in the memory thinking Wow that once made me happy but that once led me to the ocean weeping my sorrows away Today I think of you with roses in mind except now I removed the thorns, pruned the bush and smelt the sweet fragrance of joy. P. S I hope you're as happy as I am and if not I hope you find the kind of joy that makes your toes tingle and your face brighter. I hope you learn to laugh again. I always loved that laugh.

A univeral sence of escape       Not just my own luxury      Trapped behind the walls    Screaming with my silenced voice        I am okay , I promise                 These markings on my body         mean nothing        Yet each one has its own        Significance        Meaning something to me        I am sorry       I am okay, I promise       I am not okay ,but I guess that doesn't matter to you.     Because you aren't even there

Painful yet enjoyable Leave me with a reminder that last night was not a dream and that you won't fade away like the thoughts I had of you. Bite because **** if that's all there is to it then atleast there is one night that was enjoyable without the wiskey in your glass On night that matters when you are sober / when I am there and I matter when you are sober So yes bite ... Until WE are both content
