It’s okay… in my opinion… to go home to glory… with some things

left unsaid.. cuz some things are better left unsaid… and I may

never run that marathon… that for at least... five years...  

I’ve been preparing for… in my head… and should I meet my maker...

carrying that last twenty pounds… that I’ve been lying about losing … well…

let’s just say… that… since my maker made me… I don’t see a problem… and

if the Creator should call before I learned to play guitar…. cuz

I’ve always wanted to learn to play guitar… I admit it will be a

disappointment… but not as big a disappointment as it would be… if

I died with my bedroom looking like this…
You mustn't take the blame.
Don’t you ever feel ashamed.
I will never be the same.
Let me go, I never felt oh so cold.
I’ve never been so alone.
I cant see, so just take my hand and lead.
Why cant I love you.
I just miss you.
Why cant I sleep when your not next to me.
I just feel so restless.
I’m just so breathless.
You took my heart and fixed it.
Now you just ripped it.
I want you back.
It will never last.
You just took everything.
If you thought.
You were the everything.
Forever must I rest.
To you this was our last goodbye.
I just wanna forever cry.
I love you, but do you feel so much pain within.
I hope you love me too, for I am ******.
How could god forsake me, I’ve chosen the demon.
I’m planning my demise.
I’m sorry for my treason.
For what I did, the chains are binding.
Forever tightening.
Deaths grip is hurting me.
Don’t you DARE leave me!
You loved.
You punished.
You have killed.
All innocence left is corrupted.
Like a murky gas and its fumes.
Nothing is left.
Just the lust I still have for you.
For whatever I do.
Just know I still love you.
All of these words are real. Not a fake. All of these words have a meaning. Love, lust,and blood.
Shall I take my life away
Strip the essence of disgust
From a beautiful aroma of life
Shall I envy no longer
The tears that seem foreign
To vacant hollow depths
Soulless windowpanes that echo
The pain of a thousand voices
Yet I seem to struggle
With these tornado winds
Ripping through my heart
Desecrating the holy lands
That once flourished with Love and Innocence
Now Godforsaken
Shot down in the middle of night
Crashing burning into hallowed grounds
Aerial assault bombarding
Leaving ruins and corpses
Thirsty for the spillage of my blood
Carving rivers into my wrist
Breaking dams in my veins
Letting the ****** tsunami rage
Drowning myself in its depth
Godforsaken
Now I shall die
Simply because I'm pathetic
Always thinking I can save the world
With six lines or outstretched arms
All I'm doing is setting it up
For its inevitable failure
ANCIENT POEM!!!!

We make mistakes and fix them with glue, the cheap sort of glue that can't hold much together. So we wither in our pain and make a boat with our imagination. Because something is better than nothing, and heart ache is better than not having a heart at all. And we give reason to the things that aught not to have any, and we give light to the dark in hopes of gaining some sort of relevance to what we call life. We patch up the stains that are left from the looming sun that breaks the soil from it's dewy demise. We cancel on the weak to find someone willing, and we prey on the minds of weeds in the garden, because no one is perfect, and no one wants to be alone. We end up with who we think we deserve and regret everything and nothing all at once. We accompany our fears to the dinner table, but hide them with the broccoli in our napkins.

I just let it happen because it's something to do.
I just let myself bleed, because it's something to see.
I break the glass on purpose to feel what it's like to be in control.
I push myself to the limit to remember deep down that I'm still sane.
For now
