Wouldn't it be nice if you could just lay in your bed and cry until the pain disappeared?...

wander more
wonder more.
All we ever do is wish for more.

Will we ever feel we have enough
when you're the abundance you adore?

You need nothing.
Never more.
try to capture a shooting star
with all of its glorious radiance
as it cascades through the epoch
of its own demise
a daunting and elusive task
it helps to remember
we're all burning embers
tumbling down from the sky

kerri
there's a devil on my shoulder
and an angel in my heart
they're both telling me to act on my feelings for you
but i'm too scared of rejection
You think you're too serious
Too shy
Complain about being too curious
Too sly

You say you're too independent
Too whimsical
Question why you're too impatient
Too analytical

I need you to realize and stop whining
You're the right amount of everything
With the most impeccable timing

Bye

Elle
The stillness amuses me
The stopping of time
A moment of your own-
on your own.

Trapped within the white walls
Of a place for the sick
A place for the sick?
I already died.

I killed myself inside-
A long time ago.
The pretty red liquid flows
Invisible to the eye
I killed myself inside.

Tempted but scared
To pick the last petal
Of the bleeding rose.

So I looked for other flowers
To preoccupy my mind
"Think happy thoughts"
Is what they say
As I greedily and desperately gasped for air
And wished for the numbing sensation to subside.

All I want is an escape
To never think at all
Think of happy thoughts, you say?
The happy thoughts were my downfall.
