I hate to see you
Suffer so much when the love
I feel is so strong
Love can't always fix everything

Do you ever blame yourself for everything?
Have you ever just wanted to curl up and be left alone?
This is me every day, every week, every month, every year...
You cut, and pop pills, and choke yourself out, but what good does it do?
You can't change who you are or what happens.

"You are you
that's truer than true.
there's no one alive,
that's youer than you."
(-Dr. Seuss)

Advice

My mum would say, "Be the best you can be."
My dad would say, "Don't **** up."
My brothers say, "Don't forget the beer."

These are the thoughts I go to school with.
I never forget the beer.

frame your wife,

Colm
The universe puts her headphones on
And plays her favorite track
The raindrops in the meadow burst
And soak the earth
And with her feet up on the world
She smiles from ear to ear
And plays it back
What songs does the universe listen to? Is there a more beautiful sound than the rain falling in the secluded meadow. Truthfully, I don't know. But I do love the sound of these words as they roll off the tongue. YUPP!

It's 3am

I'm on the phone
No one's awake and I'm alone

It's 3am

The radio's on
Songs are played on lonely station

It's 3am

I'm in my bed
My eyes are open and sleep has fled

It's 3am

I'm on the balcony
The sky is dark and just quite scary

It's 3am

Some windows have lights
Could they also not sleep tonight

It's 3am

I'm still awake
When will life ever give me a break
Insomniac nights are the worst. And it's been going on like this for quite awhile.

Jermon
Tiredness aches my rigid bones
Confusion resounding through mighty skull
Restricted area of red-white cones
Shattering upon rocks, a ship’s wooden hull
Spluttering about in a raging storm
Oh, rest for a confused soul

The life battered out of old hew shones
Crashing upon a sea of stones
Squeezed of air, the lungs of moans
Sighing away the care and groans
The wind hurling some flighty drones
Oh, rest for a confused soul

Wrecking a hollow house, no gentle breeze
Disaster wrung, god flung-out sneeze
Heather the where, uprooted trees
Wrinkles and bold, help - oh please
Shivering upon trembling knees
Oh, rest for a confused soul
