What do I say?
If I could give it all, I did I gave away a privileged life, one could dream to live At the time, I didn't think I had much My mistake and all my glory was crushed My perspective was crooked All were in awe of my life, yet I overlooked it I thought of my life like a house of glass Too fragile and meek, so over-class Ironically, that was an understatement My life, a house of gold to be completely blatant Yet still I took my life with no value The gold was my ashtray I spew Now my life, a burnt down house, scarce of abundance A daily reminder of my descendance Into a void; hell Hopeless on whether I'll live to have a story to tell Of how life gave me something And how quickly I gave life reason to make me nothing

I Am Nothing
The gust of wind, so strong it takes your breath away The foul play of heavy rain, flooding the garden of your heart, wilting any vein well rooted The darkness of the sky, setting a mood of disparity The thunder, blocking the sweet melodies of good thought, Finally the lightning, putting arrest the entire body, to be left weak and numb The epitome of hopelessness, the tempest we face Yet have courage. The tempest is always temporary.

The Tempest We Face
THEY broke into my storyline: confections served were not so slight still i missed out on YOU at first, that trace YOU gave of sheer remorse put that now in you head, sweet THING! my guilty pleasure feels like savoring. a palate to transpire any doubts - a skill of tiger on the prowl it's the plot of a mindless fling, i care for YOU to be within though such acting's bound with letters' dire ****** i see YOU TWO again to have my bliss i read YOU out, i spell YOU! then write YOU down i read YOU out, i spell YOU, then write YOU down it's been a while i had my click with all the fluff i cared to think i thought this time WE may never part, but YOU are in the line with change of heart it's the plot of a mindless fling, i care for YOU to be within though such acting's bound with letters' dire ****** i see YOU TWO again to have my bliss i reread YOU out, i spell YOU! then rewrite YOU down i read YOU out, i spell YOU, then write YOU down

rewriting FIONA
I lose my smell when I try to fit my words in a conversation and I try to fit myself in someone's life and my body in someone's space I find that I lose my reflection It looks back at me lost blurry eyes are dull and unresponsive

Off-kilter
Finally, I have found Where the Sidewalk Ends! Well, less "Where" more "What" and "When".   The sidewalk is our timeline and each fixed point is an end! Around our aura parts the currents of space and chaotic life. Where we've both been trapt in its waters and we gained our years of fight. Battling towards each individual branch, we see emanates of sounds and lights! With laughs, cries, and hues galore we parade our guiding lanterns high! For in the distance is curdled screams of wedding bells and flashing purple skies. All this time bobbing in the waters, but it taken so long see At each Sidewalks End, the darkness recedes and reveals pieces of you and me.   Where a lantern collects a moment in time, each dew drop holds our melody Each star holds pieces of a fragile heart, and every End is only The Beginning.

Always needing
as delta rae said, oh baby. it's a long way down to the bottom of the river, hold my hand as she looks me in the eyes and tells me to run i look at her realizing that this this is what life really is life is terribly unbearable however it is incredibly beautiful at the same time those moments with your favorite people where you stop breathing because you're so happy moments like these are what i live for hold my hand oh baby it's a long way down to the bottom of the river delta rae was right but sometimes the bottom of the river isn't where you find death sometimes it's where you find life happiness or love. the bottom of the river is only bad if you make it that. so don't let the bottom of your river be the end let it be the beginning

hold my hand
1. If I were to lose my eyesight, My vision would be heightened. Free from worldly distraction, I See humanity for what it is. It is terrifying. It is beautiful. 2. If I were to lose my sense of smell, Well, I think I’d be just fine. I’m used to not breathing, Smothered by emotion And over-love. I think I’d be just fine, But I’d sure miss the smell of you. 3. If I could never hear your voice again, Please kiss me with all of your Words. Let me read your lips With mine, Our own sign language. Let your secrets spill on to My tongue. If I could never hear you say "I love you", dear, Let me feel it. 4. If I lose my sense of taste, A fire would burn within; To never taste your lips again Would be a deadly sin. 5. If I lost the ability to touch, I’d go madly insane. A most basic comfort; A primitive coping mechanism Lost to the world. A world without touching you Is no world at all, But the deepest pit of hell. I do not wish to go there.

notes from a survival manual: three
Please stop calling me nice. I am not nice. I will not be contained to a single word, When my bones are built from metaphors And my lips leak similes. I am a fireball of emotion, splitting trees and men in two with my passion for my art. I am a slurry of terror, creeping up on you at night that curls your toes right before you fall asleep. I am not nice, I am anything but I am alive with the summer heat that burns in my eyes and the sunlight that flows through my ribcage. I am a warrior, a fighter, a solider in disguise. I am the moon that hides it face in the day, only to showcase it's purity in the night. I am the stiff wind that knocks the shallow air out of your lungs on a cold, January morning. I am the tick, tick, tick of the buzzer right before its majestic song. I am the obscene, the extraordinary, the menacing things in life. I am not confined by a single word. I am not nice.
