They sewed my lips together
And told me I sang beautifully.
But when I tore out the stitches
They said my voice
Was background noise.

- p. winter
Je prie, j'ai peur
Je ris, je meurs
Je joue, je gagne
J'ai mal et je me soigne
Et j'ai le même sang que toi

//Translation\

I pray, I'm afraid
I laugh, I die
I play, I win
I hurt and I heal myself
And I have the same blood as you
another french poem/song by Yannick Noah. Enjoy
A Memory Known
Not just to me but to all
Has faded away

Quickly growing dark
No one left to share the light
now completely gone

No one knows but me
A forgotten memory
A dying mindset
Ooooooh. I think i like hikus!!
(I won't post them often though)
Outside
I can breath
I can feel the air
against my pale skin
the wind swirls around me
blowing my hair in my face
I breathe in a deep breath
a breath of happiness
The only thing that
would make this any better
is to be here with you
Come with me to this warm place
this relaxing island above the clouds
If only I could take you here
to this outside place
far away from everything
This place of trees
grass
and sun
So why don't you join me
*In this outside paradise
I recently went to the Bahamas and I didn't realize how much I would miss all the people back at home. (Allie, Bryn, Samoo)

I cross my heart and hope to die.

That's what you said...

Cross your heart and hope to die
That you would never leave me.

But I'm the one left standing here, hoping to die.

For its MY heart that you have crossed.

I thought I could
hear the roses
smell the colors
taste the fire
see the halos
control the mind
kiss the storm
touch the prayers
swallow the lies
hold the centuries
and
escape the world
