a soft gentle rain
is falling tonight
rain falls on my face 
rain falls from my eyes
the river that flowed 
so richly and deep
only appeared to run dry
as one gone to sleep
but it's flowing once more
rain fills its banks 
i’ve prayed it's return
for this i return...
thanks!
sometimes, just sometimes, wishes (and prayers) do come true.
welcome home my friend, we've missed your sweet waters

Numb
 Oct 2013 KM
Lizzy
When you've reached the point
Where you can't even cry
And you don't feel anything anymore

It's more frightening
Than the most sorrowful of sorrows
Because it means you've given up

Lizzy
One day when you're lost
And you do not want to live
Just remember me

Picture this:

August
Head floating.
Thump thump
Thumping in your head.
Thump thump
You can feel every breath
Inhale
Dragging down your throat
Exhale
Each one a different texture
Inhale
Soft and cool, slipping down
Exhale
Climbing up, pushing out
Inhale
Your chest a vast cavern
Exhale
And every nerve attentive
Thump thump
Not being able to speak
Should I?
Nothing is important enough to say
Is it?
You are amplified and too focused
Am I?
Every thought decaying
Thump thump
You can feel the pieces falling
Thump thump
Making your heart quiver
Thump thump
And it goes on for hours
Thump thump
Which seems like years

Thump thump
And you can't hide your fears

Thump
They focus on you

Thump
And latch onto you

Thum
They love you

Thu
Don't let them go

Th
You need them

T
And they

.
need you.
Amara Pendergraft 2013

I had a very bad night, yesterday, due to poor decision making.
I paid for it in many different ways.
