#skipping
Skipping school
Avoid the reminders
Say i feel sick
Say i feel tired
Friends worried
Keep missing
Skipping
Avoiding
Ignoring school.
Avoid these people
At all costs
A list of a sidewalk
To skip down on
When I want to feel pain
Because thats all you brought to me
Skipping school...
Avoid the reminders...
Say i feel sick...
Say i feel tired...

I’m just a stone; skipping carelessly
through streams of love.
_One
Two,
Maybe three_
Seeing how far I’ll make it this time; distant
enough to not see where I immediately sink.
_One
Two
Three,
I made it to four_
Still however far you go, the awkward silence
you can hear, is a distant failure’s echo.
_One
Two
Three
Four,
Must be luck to make five_
With the smooth skins of stone, often to tattoo the
smoothest words on tongue; patiently ready.
_One
Two
Three
Four
Five,
Honestly, best not to count on your failures,_
Its so easy to lose count, but just count on one:
—the one day you eventually find what you’re looking for.
One day does feel like a distant arrival, still it will be
one day, you’ll know you have found the one.

Here's to the kids
who skip school
but
not for alcohol
not for drugs
not for shopping
not because they're lazy
not as a joke
but those kids
that are afraid of it
that can't speak in class
that feel like they're dying walking through the halls
that feel physically sick getting called on
that get tension pains from the pressure put on them
that know how it is to live in a generation
that still doesn't accept mental illness
as much as it accepts physical illness
and that still forces kids
into situations that will leave them traumatized
at the end of the day
and will keep them up at night
for the next four years

hiding away
as we lay
in the trees
beneath the leafs
we forget about everything
wishin' we were evergreens
what does anything mean
I'll just get lost in her laughter
and forget about anything that bothered me that day
because you are here
and I am here
and we are healthy and happy
for now at least.

"Get in there!"
Can't say it loud enough
"Awoooo!"
Feeling awesome
Unbridled grins
Yelling with vigour
Hi fives
Energising others
Since when did we stop skipping?

We all wish we could skip our chores like we skip cut-scenes in a video game
Or songs on our internet radio
Trust me, the Bulls wish they could skip the rodeo.
I wish i could skip the pauses in the stereo.

I want to skip,
Skip class,
Skip school,
Skip life...
Skip around like the inner child in me,
Screams out asking for,
Daily,
Nightly,
When ever things are bad,
Just,
Skipping around my issues,
Like people skipped around me,
I think about skipping out,
If all the bad things,
But what if I miss,
Something good,
Because I was too busy,
Skipping.

I was walking , talking today
A little girl came skipping my way
Reciting some silly nonsense song
Wasn't long before she was gone
skip a rope
A good friend in the middle of the night
rang up involved with her plight
On her behalf could I say a few words
Why of course and now they are heard
skip a rope
Then when the sun comes out to play
We all perk up and listen to him say
We all smile from deeply inside
From within the sunshine can't hide
skip a rope
And with sadness you have to go
Across the ocean so far it's so
But when you land you extend your hand
from there to here and back again
skip a rope

You are the stone thrown
into the depths of my river,
the subtle unsettling
upon my surface.
As you sink below my water,
don't fear that you may disappear
like all the secrets beneath--
from you the
stillness in my bones
ripples out and echoes sweet
from the deepness
that lives inside.

Skipping stones
And broken bones
And memories long gone
A summer through
Like me and you
As the leaves change on
I remember now
And it's my vow
To forget of all we've done
But I can't say
Within this day
To regret all or none.

I run on this lake beach,
Crunching over old bones and
My memories.
What I wanted to do,
What I wanted to feel.
I see the flat rocks,
The ones I wanted to skip so badly,
I just didn't know how.
I never could.
I thought you could teach me then
Smile remembering you--
Then stop.
The words you said were too much.
I want to collapse next to
The pile of rocks
And cry.
But I continue onward
Hoping.
Wondering when I will meet the boy
Who can teach me the secret of
Defying gravity.

I chose this path
No, no one else did just me
No one else did
So why do I want to blame it on them
I told myself I wouldn't cry
I told myself I shouldn't lie
I told myself these but, I do this anyway
I like to break the boundaries
Skipping stones across a forbidden lake
But I wouldn't listen to myself when I said stop
I grasped my memories; nothing else then I stormed out that door
I want you to believe it was your fault
I wanted you to hate yourself for it
To come to me before I left this door or....
at least to regret it all
But, I couldn't even be honest with myself until it was over.
I wanted so bad
To have some way of knowing you weren't just going to forget
forget about me
But I lied to myself we were never a "we"
It took me forever to realize
You didn't even care
much less remember me
So I take my memories, my blames, tears,and lies and will disappear before your very eyes.

"To the begining of the tape please
I don't like the end"
she said to me again and again.
