There's nothing to do, we just sit together and -- we wait, but for what?

There's nothing to do
We're just sitting here, what else? Should we go somewhere -- and do nothing there?

We're just sitting here
Back from the counter. Still the same panorama. A prospectless view.

Back from the counter
It’s so much easier to like Them Isn’t it? Much more convenient For you To walk away from me And make up A million And one Excuses Why you need to leave. Would it really hurt you more Than me To tell me in my face that It’s so much easier to like Them Isn’t it?

Poisonous Flowers
Let me be alone, I do like it and get bored -- when in company.

[ Let me be alone ]
She just watches it with indifference, smiling -- irritatingly.

[ She just watches it ]
Something shiny there, I stop and kick it away -- pff, just a dead star.

[ Something shiny there ]
I dropped out of college one month in. I quit two jobs over text. I only retrieved half of my belongings after moving out of my parents house. My library card was cancelled because I never returned the DVD I rented, because I never watched it. My exes all still have at least two articles of my clothing because I told them I'd come get them. I intended to. I just never got around to it. I started to write a suicide note. I just never knew how to end it.

Just one One guy Who doesn't want to **** me more than anything Just one One guy I used to know who was content with intellectual intimacy Just one One guy I'll always love him so much more than anything Just one One guy I tried to give him my entire self but he was to quick to go

Deep Sighs and Regrets
They badgered me, berated me. They beat me and they hated me. They seemed to want me to die Too soon, then, so did I. I was different, and that was the reason. Too many saw that as a form of treason. I had to adhere to the boundaries That were set for us artificially They had no reference to reality; More to some kind of elite tyranny. And, I still find it horribly strange That very little has changed. The rules are still very much Incredibly socially out of touch. Strive to be elite or be beaten And ultimately, almost literally eaten By the swarm of mindless fools That go on defending the rules That allow children to be thugs And, come to school to sell drugs; That let the criminals escape And, turn a blind eye to **** And abuse and battering But keep the ******** clattering At PTA, school board and council meetings More concerned with politics Than the real-time subjects Such as kids afraid of attending Because the battlefield is never ending.

DING **** SCHOOL
All the veins, arteries and trains from here to there are way not near enough route for you to commute to come to me, or for me to be close to you.

A Letter To Disinterest
To excel is like climbing a mighty mound So dreary it seems trudging the desolated road, But I've grown too weary doing inconsequential things. Lazy to walk, craving for a comfy abode. Though it's only disinterest that crosses my way Like a torrent of the mountain creek, Drowning me in trifling thoughts, making my journey all the more bleak. Hope I could find a tree along, Bloomed with evergreen pomes Of passion and perseverance. I'd love to nibble at them for sure, And regain my lost endurance. I know I could transcend my limits And ascend this arduous rock, If only I took the first step And started to walk.
