woods surrounded us
full of clatter and charm
we lay beneath a woven blanket
you fit snug into my arms
that dark hair twisting in my fingers
your laughter and gentle kisses
complimenting the words that
filled my ears
I hate it, I hate it
these dreams abound with you
I don't even love you anymore
I don't even care
I don't even remember how to love
so why do they haunt me?
why do they taunt me?
why can't I let them
go?
I wake up with a pit in my stomach
as if over three years hasn't done a **** thing

Allow yourself to dream,
And when you do dream big
    Allow yourself to learn
And when you do learn all you can
    Allow yourself to laugh
And when you do share your laughter
    Allow yourself to set goals
And when you do reward yourself as you move forward
    Allow yourself to be determined
And when you do you will find you will succeed
    Allow yourself to believe in yourself
And when you do you will find self confidence
    Allow yourself to lend a helping hand
And when you do a hand will help you.
    Allow yourself relaxation
And when you do you will find new ideas.
    Allow yourself love
And when you do you will find love in return
    Allow yourself to be happy
And when you do you will influence others around you.
    Allow yourself to be positive
And when you do, I guarantee you,
your life will get easier...
Sometimes the only person that can help you, is YOU!

Most of the machines don't know
they're broken.
They hum circadian.
I am in a patch-process.
I'm rewiring my hard drive
with the only chips I know.
I hope You like
my feeble,
yet desperate attempts,
to reconstruct my mainframe,
my big iron.
Pray for Me.

on this boat I am safe as long as I can see shore
but that is not what I have built this for
I sailed out for adventure and a chance to explore
this place is too mundane I want something more
to navigate by the stars like in the times of yore
and find rubies and gold treasures galore
but first I must get there so I reach for my oar
and row into the unknown until I am sore
I look out to the east and the clouds I just abhor
the waves grow higher and the wind starts to roar
the clouds begin to light up and the rain starts to pour
a storm such as this one I have never seen before
and all this premonition I can no longer ignore
but I am not turning back I'll risk the ocean floor

Stella had a pentagram etched
across her pert chest,
her jet hair
accentuated
her icy blues,
she walked twisting the heads
of the forsaken,
she was black magic,
all the way.
Satan has all the spellbinding girls.
