I saw you today but quickly turned my head and looked the other way. It hurts to see you. I want to run over to you and give a big hug and never let go. I want you and I want you to stay with me. When I look at you all the memories and the feelings come back and I'm afraid I might fall for you again. Not because I can't but because I won't. I know you will catch me but eventually you will drop me like I am nothing. You made me feel like I was everything and you made me feel like I was nothing.

Happy 4:2... Easter

Happy 4:2... Easter

And on the third day he rose
eyes red from creation
a sativa-induced resurrection

And though many searched for him
he was not there
he was already philosophy and smoke

Now, centuries later
millions roll themselves in his dogma
with hopes of getting high

Jesus Christ!! Tomorrow is both 4/20 AND Easter...just playing with the idea

a challenge to the dark

Charles Bukowski

a challenge to the dark

shot in the eye
shot in the brain
shot in the ***
shot like a flower in the dance

amazing how death wins hands down
amazing how much credence is given to idiot forms of life

amazing how laughter has been drowned out
amazing how viciousness is such a constant

I must soon declare my own war on their war
I must hold to my last piece of ground
I must protect the small space I have made that has allowed me life

my life not their death
my death not their death...

The Smiths

The Smiths

I'll sit in a dark blue room,
listening to the Smiths.

I'll hate every second of it;
each reminds me of you.

You're a coward, a user. An addiction chances are overdosed
Threw me away without a tilt at the waist.
Using me in-between what you believed real.

Not realizing I was clinging, grinding, rocking in hopes of you staying.
I have to laugh, thinking lust would turn into profound love
-make you stay.

Fake

I threw out
The flowers you gave me
Not because
They were fake
But because
We were

By Chloe Elizabeth

Now, I wish I would have kept them.

What Is Applicable Anymore?

Remind me again why
I'm doing this homework?

Do I really live a more fulfilling life by doing homework?

Forgetting the World

Forgetting the World

The willows shade me from the sun,
On that warm summer's day.
The wind plays lazily with my hair,
As the rest of the world slips away.

The lazy brook burbles by,
Smoothing out rough stones
The breeze whispers in my ear,
Secrets no human knows.

I forget the world in this moment,
The drama, the pain, and the fight.
How can everything be so wrong,
When everything now feels right?

This emptiness inside
Is killing me.
This feeling of not belonging
To anything or anyone.
Knowing that there is no one
Who cares about me,
Who loves me.
I can't help but wonder
If I should just leave;
Leave this life
Of misery and heartache;
Because no matter what I do,
It isn't getting better
And I'm not going to wait around forever
To see if it does.
