I don’t know who I am anymore.
I’m just a lost boy at sea.
Crashing waves inside of me.
Saltwater in my veins.
Drowning in my pain.
The tide eases now.
I’m slowly recovering.
The waves at a halt.
I was once a lost boy.
And now I’m crowned the king.

Recently i seen the big game referred to as, "The Promise". A great number of tiny information as well as understandings jumped out and about during me personally i always idea I would reveal a variety of them. From the film, there has not been just one offer built, there initially were lots of. And because the film developed, I noticed there are frequently penalties not to ever preserving an individual's expression. Destruction does not just get lucky and yourself but will also to the people who are loss in the cracked term and also guarantee.

If a person assures a thing and doesn't stick to, then this person that ended up being banking on and place their own hope in that persons term understands doubtfulness. That insufficient believe in could stretch in the evening one that smashed this promises to some others at the same time. After this common sense, medical and framework of an contemporary society may be disturbed.

Therefore, having less sincerity is a double-edged sword. That slashes their leverer along with the device. A udbyder of your assurance don't become honest which enables it to not commerce as well as help this betrayed in line with the toughness of these man's term. The two of you you are. In case the ripples of unfaithfulness stretch in the evening two individuals, many individuals could be afflicted. In the case of your own connection, the price of a busted phrase is a bit more than merely the losing of confidence, its content has a causing of strong injured on the person who has been mislead. By way of example, this wedding vows associated with wedding should be hallowed. In which you along with emotionally charged value pertaining to smashing these people could be harmful for both celebrations.

Should there be other individuals engaged, for example small children, it could wreak havoc on them. Its everyday life will be cut off by the separation of the loved ones as well as at a minimum the particular following fog up involving suspicions of which is accessible regarding the management from the household. In operation, ones term must be excellent. If you don't maintain true to the concept, you can not often be honest and whenever you do, how may you keep execute trade? Personal lines of credit will probably be trim and associates, which have been hence attractive the business enterprise, is often misplaced.

Integrity is critical at every place plus every facet of world. Without having reliability the actual clothing on the program, component or culture will start for you to rip apart. With out integrity, exactly what is a human being? Anyone drops every little thing via absence of strength. This individual drops also value with regard to herself eventually. If your truth of the matter than it is upon you with your pet, he'd possibly set out to consider him self being pointless. The perfect solution is always to develop sincerity. Endeavor to be a superior in addition to honest person. In fact, sincerity is something that has been trained all over historical past. It really is recommended with just about everywhere, if you beat in it.

Even just in modern days this founder of any meditation practice named Falun Dafa, demonstrates to Accuracy, Sympathy and Building up a tolerance. She must consider integrity is significant. In truth, one will discover the objective as well as incredible importance of reliability stressed in numerous strict teachings throughout all ages of man. Really don't a noblest of persons hold the thought of strength since precious? Strength is much more just a thought. It is a functional as well as required persona mark so as to get long-term results nowadays. Real, quite a few can perform results by way of a really serious deficiency of integrity, morals in addition to strength. Even so, it's like a home created for transferring crushed stone, bound to tumble sooner or later.

I am myself whole,

no longer a fraction
of a second away
from fading

imagining an ocean
to stop my heart from
hammering

through my ribs,
bursting through
my chest

birthing something
unknown, unwanted
and caged

I am a timid bird but
nervous wings still
flutter, still fly

I am reaching into
the darkness,
arms outstretched,
eager, fearlessly
facing the future,

running blind

I have been the crying drunk in the hotel lobby,
The mosquito bite in the thin white sheets.
I have been the monsoon rain in the tropical heat;
I have been everything you said I could never be.

On the streets of dust I can eat my fill,
No more clouded eyes, no more ash-filled windowsill.
No more patient wait for my timely death,
No more passing glance; no more loneliness.

I will find my place with this foreign tongue,
On the precipice I write my immigrant song.
This culture shock makes me feel alive,
It kick-starts my heart; I finally turned the tide.

I finally made my peace in this call for arms,
In this incessant storm, I could feel the calm.
Could feel it loosen my bones,
That age-old ache, that I kissed on the mouth,
That I tried to replace

With every chemical within my reach,
With every pill or lie
That passed through my teeth.
I have been the crying drunk,
I have been the victim, too long.
I sit still and breathe.
I write my immigrant song.

"Do you love him?"

I recall my therapist asking me last session.

"Yes,"

I answered, quickly, softly, and with all the warmth I had left.

"How do you know you love him?"

And I couldn't help but smile as I stammered out an answer,
Tears rushing to my eyes.

"Do you know what it's like to be colorblind?"

I wanted to ask.

"I have the opposite problem,"
I wanted to start.
"I see too many colors. Too much input, and it all plays out as a spinning wheel of color and light." I wanted to explain.

"But because of all the constant input of some type of color scheme, nothing makes sense."

And as I sighed, and gave my answer to him,
The much less complicated,
"He is kind, and loving, and smart, and understanding."

I desperately wanted to say, "My Bluebird makes me smile when I don't think I even remember how to. And it's because with him, the colors finally make sense."

And I know I should have said it. But how do I say it simply?

"Everything makes sense when I'm with him. That is how I know I love him."
Three weeks and five days.

scared is not
a good enough
word for how
i'm feeling

peeking through
a crack in the
curtain of who
i am as a person

(like a dumb
teenage boy
hoping to see
some girl's skin)


and being
surprised to find
the lights on and
no one home

(not that i should
find that surprising
when i haven't seen
myself around town)


like i moved onto
the back porch of
a stranger and never
went back home

(sleeping in the weather
and knowing that i've
chosen to be homeless
in pursuit of a feeling)


trapped in a
small town
by small mentalities
of who i should be

getting drunk and
laid while wishing
i was burning trash
alone in the woods

(the long
and short
of it is
i lost myself
or that i never really
had myself at all)


we hold onto
things and places
people and faces
that feel like home
even if we don't love them
even if they don't love us
because we want security
while growing up


(can't shake the memories
from dresses hanging
in the backs of closets
clinging like that knockoff
pink perfume that took
last shreds of innocence)


and i'm scared
i'm ******* scared
of being
okay

because i've  hung
onto my sadness
like i hung onto
an old hoodie

(walked hand in
hand with darkness
the only thing i've
always had to fall on)


and now i'm standing
tapping on the window
trying to figure out if
the person i'm looking
for is hiding behind the
stacked moving boxes
if they were ever here
in the first place

i don't see her
but i have to find her
and i can't escape
i can only drag
myself up with a
questionable safety harness
determination and
broken fingernails

not ativan out

heavily inspired by the album Under The Cork Tree by Fall Out Boy and what's rattling around in my head tonight.

Within the foliage,
And within the sunlight,
Will you find me?

And who am I to be?
Lost in curse words and violence,
My presence is small,
But my words are bigger than me.

I am but a simple thief,
Stealing your heart,
And sooner or later,
I'll take your last name
As mine as well.

Maybe I've seen too much,
Maybe I've bled too often.
But you are the reason
Hardship is nothing
To me.

I have enough faith,
Enough hope,
That the sun will come out
Sooner or later.
These four weeks can't be over with soon enough.

And if I gave into the darkness,
I'd find blood on my hands,
And a trail of regrets and sins
To follow home.

And if I struggled but continued to embrace
What little light I have inside me
I would feel a little stronger,
And a little brighter.

But I know that this
Darkness inside of me
Knows me all too well,
And it creeps up at the corners of my mind,
And slithers in through to my deepest
Most concerned thoughts,
And I've found I can fight it,
But only with the promise
Of your hand in mine.

Because the my light
Is too slight
Without the help
Of your bright.

And I'm afraid to say that I need
You,
But I'm even more afraid to say
That
It's so very
True.

And if I could tell you
That every light part of me
I learned from loving you,
Whether it be in that clandestine way
I had so many years ago,
Or the much more obvious type
That I display now,
I would tell you
In every way I know how.
Opting for light, thanks. <3

I hope you got home safely, Bluebird. Four weeks. <3

Put ice on your wrists,
Or wherever the scars usually appear,
And hold it for five to ten minutes,
The urge should disappear,
Along with the sensation in your veins
The signals to you
That you're about to black out.

If you don't have ice,
Apply pressure with your hands.
Bonus points if they're cold.

Don't allow yourself to become too aware
Of the blood in your veins.

Breathing exercises help too,
And while you're at it try grounding yourself.

Count how many things you can see up to five.
Then count four things you can hear.
Three you can touch,
Two you can smell,
And one you can taste.

Make a list of what calms you,
Make a list of what gives you bliss,
See how many things go between each.

Talk  yourself down,
Remind yourself you can't do this.
Remind yourself you have to remember.

Don't focus on the trigger.
Forget it,
Quickly.

Distract yourself.
Something you can hear-- Music.
Something you can taste-- Gum.
Something you can feel-- Your lion.
Something you can smell-- His sweatshirt.
But what do you focus on?

You can't seem to find a fixed point to keep your eyes on,
And the threat of a black out is receding,
But why did it start?

You can't even remember what set you off.

Your hands are soaked.
The ice cubes melted on your wrists.
Something to remind me.

A girl kicks her legs while sitting on a swing,
unable to coordinate her young body to move forward.
Her small hands are wrapped around the chain links,
holding her high so she can only touch her toes to the ground.
Her stomach hurts and she frowns.
It always hurts when she tries to play, so she stopped trying.

A teen kicks her legs while sitting on a swing,
not having the energy to move herself forward.
Her bitten fingernails pick a the ridges of the chain links,
holding her now that she is far to exhausted to do so on her own.
Her whole body hurts and she can't even frown.
It always hurts when she tries to breathe, so she stopped trying.

A woman walks up to a swing,
allowing her own child to tug her towards it.
Her actions are careful as she pushes her precious cargo,
cradling it yet letting it roam far enough to find happiness.
Her whole body feels light and she can't stop smiling.
It always was a struggle to keep going, but she never stopped trying.
I will be the woman someday.
