Ellie. My name is Ellie.
I want to be a writer. I want to be a star. I want to be free.
I imagine myself riding on wide open roads,
on the back of a motorcycle with a boy
who is as much of a ghost as he is a person.
I imagine myself dazed in rooms
filled with a purple glow.
I imagine pills, lust, liquor, leather.
I want to live forever
and I want to die young.
My name is Ellie.
I don’t know what home means;
I don’t want to.
I need people to love me.
I will break all of their hearts.
I imagine late nights in underground clubs…
Marlboro, rock & roll, Howl by Allen Ginsberg–the bible.
Tanqueray;
falling down in a graveyard muttering in Romanian,
hoping for salvation,
but while I’m called an angel night after night
I’ve got the devil in me.
Rosewater runs through my veins,
the blood has already been spilt.
I won’t ever belong to anyone, not even myself.
When you have the knowledge that nothing’s real
it’s hard to do what’s expected of you.
I relate to flowers a lot.
They’re beautiful, but they don’t last.
Sometimes no matter how hard you try to take care of them,
they just run out of life.
I think I ran out of life the day I was born.
Everything is nothing.
The gods don’t want you to know that,
but that is the one truth.
"about me"
My boat is waiting, I am ready to sail.
In the ocean of my own sorrow.
I know, it’s gonna hurt.
So, ******* one last kiss.
The journey will be long, don’t know the end.
But I promise, I will meet you again across the ocean.
Where the Sun won’t set,
Shadows of our past would fade.
We won’t be scared of our feelings.
No boundaries to keep us apart.
And love would blossom.
Till then, remember me in your memories.
But today I have to sail alone in my decrepit boat.
Believe in yourself so much that even when there's no one to back you up,you'll still stand firm,
Do you know of the sweet pleasure of doing something people say you can't do?
Wow its soooooo pleasurable!!!,I'm lacking better terms here,
But believe me,it is.
Inspired by the Walter Bagehot quote which says "the greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you can't do"
By the way,Greater is He who's in you than he who's in the world.
Respectful
Forgiving,
Understanding,
Joyful,
Uplifting,
Selfless,­
Considerate
Appreciative,
Priceless
Forever.
And much more right? ;)

Beaten
breathless
bruised
broken
torn
tattered
stiched up
resuscitated
and
resuscitated again.

that was the function of her heart

- to be pulled to pieces
Or pushed back in together again

and still
she managed
the miracle
of love.

...

her love was
unconditionally blind
but the strong quiet
beautiful kind
that no one thought
beautiful at all.

...

A perfectly perfunctory love.

I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.
