As the memories come
Here I weep
Here I weep

As the wind blows the clouds
Here I weep
Here I weep

As night fades to day
Here I weep
Here I weep

In the eternal vastness of the unknown
Here I weep
Here I weep

In the depths of the abyss
Here I weep
Here I weep

In light of their lies
Here I weep
Here I weep

There I wept...

Fighting sleep
These memories I wish to keep
Whilst the battle rages
I step onto the stages
Into these changes
Chased by the sun
Wake up
Stay up
Sleep is never to remain for long

My footprint
Small, so strange
Fingerprint
So odd
Standing out among them
Yet hidden away

Take me, oh wonder
Take me, oh marvel
Into the land of possibility
Where the imagination roams free
And all is possible.

Just going on a thought

It's getting harder and harder to breath
Oh, so much pressure on me

I've got 2 days left...
(if you include today)

Then my fate is sealed
This is so real
I'll be the failure
They've always known me to be
I'll be the one...
Crawling under their skin

The oldest is supposed to be the boldest
But hey,
Is that really what we should say?
Will I be okay?
If i really do hit rock bottom,
What does that really say?
That I shouldn't have given up?
That I was the mistake?
Yeah, well,
I'll just
Show how
Purposeful a mistake
A failure
Can be

I deserve to have a chance
So I'll work
I'll try
Even as the sands of time
Every grain
Falls ever faster
Against me
Waiting to reclaim me
I'll make it wait
I'll make it wait.

I only have until tomorrow to get my grades up... It'll be nearly impossible, but here goes nothing and everything.

jas
we become our surroundings
the outer world tries to mold us into soulless creatures
shaping us into the next generation of disease,
blind to the fact that we are destroying cultures
like its the next big thing
lately, im starting to realize
im the wrong piece to this puzzle
i do not fit, i am the black sheep
fallen off of the never ending cycle

in order to change we must first change ourselves
the one bright star must shine its light onto the others
so that they may discover
there is more than hate out in this world.

the question is time
the question is when
the question is how

to break our habits
pushed onto our neighbors
searching for a cure
in this reckless place on earth
will we ever find the answer before were kicked
in the dirt?

You don't REALLY know me
I'm my own mystery.

Twisting the knobs
On comes the water
Crashing, drumming down
On the tub floor

After a moment
You step in
Absorbing the warmth
Embraced by the pattering droplets
Soothed by the simplest of things
Eased into a sense of safety
Naked, yet somehow,
Never more clothed and protected

Inaudibly, rivers run
Down your cheeks
To your chin
To the floor
Crouching, close to the ground
From whence your ancestors came
Longing to claim you

Too afraid to stop
To turn it off
To emerge into the open air
Yet
Flesh turning pink
Like that of a kittens nose
Signals you it is time
To cool down

Slowly, carefully
Standing
One last moment in embrace
Caressed by the water
Then
Going through the motions...
