it's funny how people can capture you.
the lines around their eyes when they smile can invite you towards them,
or the fleeting look they give when they think no one's watching.
i'm interested in people's confidence, but also their nongregariousness.
the giving, the receiving, ebb and flow that makes sense but so little sense.
promise and brokenness, blame and responsibility.
strong regard interests me; inform me of the weather, or why that tea reminds you of that person, and why that makes you close your eyes and wonder.
I want to challenge myself and others to paint a picture without asking for others opinion. To treat yourself to a movie, buy yourself popcorn, and enjoy it. To walk down the street and try and remember who you were before the door shut behind you. And to GET LOST. In friends, in the scenery, in your favorite book. DO SOMETHING to help remind yourself who you are, because god knows you're the only one who can do it. And you can. You can.

Why am I so angry
Like this world has done me so wrong
Who am I to blame for this madness,
This blood that is spilling all over my insides
This dagger I found  carving out my soul
Who am I even mad at
It's like I'm mad at everyone but no one
Like I have failed myself and my heart is confused
Where am I
I am lost within my own thoughts that haunt me in my sleep
Why am I so angry
I keep seeing these images in my head
Images of me standing in front of a fire watching souls burn
As I burn myself yet unaffected by the flames
Like I am the flames
Like I am the son of death
Who am I...Who am I

It’s funny
When you think about it
I mean when you really give it All
Of your attention
You have to laugh
I mean that bit
Yeah that bit in particular
Doesn’t it just reek of Surrealism
Or whatever
Just Imagine
I mean honestly give it some thought,
Cogitate,
Chew it over…

You see what I mean?
It is funny.
