based on a true story.
sometimes i wonder am i lonely or am i just alone i ponder on this as I poison myself with more alcohol and stumble across the busy streets filled with people looking for temporary pleasure. cheap alcohol and ****** music lonely old men that'd be slapping those shrinking ***** againsts an asian ***** later in the night underaged kids addicted to the revolting taste of luxury with their parents money i am a disgusting hypocrite for i live for nothing except cheap thrills and writing.

gin and tonic
that night i remembered as we explored the familiar grounds of all sorts of sinful pleasures like books and hand squeezes from time to time turned into something rather feisty 'rough' i said and 10 minutes later i'm laughing with my hands around his neck just because i can 'you're crazy' he would say between his laughter 'stop it. You're getting me out of my character' i pout and squeezed harder and let go and hear breathe again

crime
i live for the taste of life. late night on his bike with wind through my hair. the overpriced coffee. i am somewhat a lazy and privileged *** in the prettiest hell anyone could ask for. sometimes crying and asking my dad why can't i feel anything. why cant i be emotionally connected to people. I like to think of myself as a vagabond (its the ADHD and depression he says just like what my psychiatrist tells me)when it comes to this sort of things and the alcohol makes it less revolting as i sit across the table saying things i don't mean nevertheless what i do, i do the best.

be patient. for one day as much as you don't believe in love as much as you feel 'he' doesn't exist you will see yourself in white walking down an aisle and you will think back of when you were 18 and never believed in its existence and the feeling of being doomed to being alone and how here is waiting for you now down the aisle beaming with pride not breaking eye contact because you were two human beings waiting for each other.

wedding bells
'Ive done it all' says every 18 year old. not me. ive not done it all. i still haven't gotten accustomed to affection. i haven't said 'I love you' and meant it. I really want to go for bungee jumping. Finish my half read books that i have up on my shelf. hell, i wanna wear my pretty dress and dance to frank sinatra with someone. Grow my hair longer and dye it grey with black roots. Get a job,an apartment,a cat. nice antique plates.

dear mercy,
its easier to fall in lust than in love knowing the difference between being desired and being valued 'you don't know how men are like' my dad would always say to me

hello
'michael' I hear myself say 'are you really in love with her or is it a realization that you're aging and afraid of dying alone?' I've never seen a grown man cry in my life but that was the first.

Sometimes I want to sing to someone. I want to caress him. I want to kiss him gently on his chest. I want to bite his lips and laugh. I want to feel him. My conscience being violated by his Heavy breaths Back arching back Lips quivering Lines from a song trying to escape from my mouth But he shuts me up with his lips Like a missing puzzle piece to my mouth. I want to sing to someone.

a song for him
That night That warm night. He drove at a speed of 142km/h Windows rolled down And the wind carrying all Our pointless words together with it out the window. 'Stop trying to chase Stars' I say.
