My heart is emptier than the bottle of ***** sitting on my windowsill. And those three words you said to me are burning at my throat again, and god I'm trying to forget you, but your touch is engraved all over my body. I feel it wherever I go. I can't even listen to my favorite songs without the reminder that you're gone. I can't even find beauty in the city lights the way I used to, that euphoric feeling I felt is gone. I guess when you left you took everything that I had. But that's okay because id rather feel nothing without you anyway.

A note to the silenced

Dance with abandon before those who dare not see your soul. Let your sweetest song carry upon their waves of disdain.

Take their envy, their bitterness and make it your strength, use it to stand fiercely against the harsh winds of their contempt.

For you alone guide your dreams.

Be the light in darkness, an outstretched hand, a weaver of wondrous desires.
Be a friend, a shoulder, a lover, a shelter, a storm.

Be you and someday the world will rejoice at your smile.

There's nothing I hate more than bullies. No one should get to dictate who you are.

Its not over

Waltzing through the airport.

For a moment it felt you weren't leaving.
For a moment everything was OK.

Your finger grazing my cheek
as your lips softly mouthed the lie

Its not over .

But it was. You knew it and so did I.
Our deepest fear has floated ashore.

As time passed we drifted apart.

I stopped recognizing myself in the mirror.
Im not me without you.

Lost

Sad feels better drunk.
..
You're gone.
...
Its all my fault.
Now a day I cuddle my bottle to sleep.
...
You're gone.
...
and its all my fault.

Lingering Guilt

I write you,
You close your eyes.

I call you ,
You cover your ears.

When Im gone
you'll get all the space you ever wanted.

That emptiness that will surround you.
That emptiness will be me.

.Lingering Guilt.

kaylene- mary

tell me something mr. "all and mighty,"

they fed me
the lyrics of
a christian.
they lead me
through the
forrest of all
that's good
and holy.
seven days
and seven nights.
but he couldn't
spare another hour
to mend the future
he foresaw.
all powerful
you say?
then why did he
turn our world
into slaughter?
all he taught me
was to spill a little
blood when things
don't go my way.
how do I prove
I am worthy?
just make a little
sacrifice
but oh
the victim must be
innocent.
what must be right
must be revenge.
"**** her first born child!"
"drown them, they are wild!"
burn the crops of the poor
And mutilate their
soldiers when they
fight for more.
they told me he
was all powerful
but he stood back
and watched them suffer.
Tell me something
Mr. All and Mighty
why are you
lying to us all?
