Like a giant wave came from the ocean and ripped way past the tide and took out an entire town with people still living there with cats and dogs and children and homes .. and it left nothing to gather but moldy logs & smelly seaweed and salty tears

The guys lately been trying to tell me
To better who I am increase my productivity
I ask him how he got this way
How'd he work it out so easily
He's getting up in age, I trust him
He says "I didn't want to be a product of my environment
I didn't let my parents abuse destroy
I take the good with the bad and
Am grateful for every day I wake up alive."
He's getting up there in age so I trust him.

Me I revel in the pain
I'm more frustrated by the day to day but
My misery feels like a warm murky bath
It covers my skin and sinks right in changing my DNA,
Embraces the demon I'm becoming
I didn't edit this at all, judge me how you will.

I'm tired of the text messages
The way you make me feel
You're angry, like I owe you something
None of that is real

I have to be strong
I can't give up on my happiness
It ***** that I've hurt you but
What can ya do?

I long so hard to please you,
To live up to promises I bled
I swore this new life would save me
But I was wrong again my friend

Maybe I'll save up some money
To go in the fall far away
I say this because I've become more aware
Of the pain left in my wake


I could change with the leaves

To me, you are love.
You are the quiet tenderness of a serene night and the bright excitement of a new day.
You hold the scent of sweet flowers knotted up in your curls, and the bite of the ocean in your scalp slick with sweat.
Tonight, you hugged your mommy tight. And I inhaled the scent that makes you you,
for the millionth time.
For my dragon slayer

When I feel wet
Tight skin tight ponytail so tight
My face is Alien esque
I go underneath the covers and I
Go
Some place else
...
My palms pressed against the furry fleece blanket and I'm in touch with another dimension
I feel his hands against mine
I know I'm his
And he is mine
I've broken a breach with reality
And I am somewhere else
.
The only place that matters
The arms of someone else

let's have one of those quick loves
the kind that makes you sick love
I mean sick with longing for the
beginning, middle, and end
of this dreamy card trick love

I don't expect perfection
we're both so much less than
anyway I couldn't stomach the wait
