I Don't Think We'll Recover From This (All That I Have Lost)
I can't even believe how you hate me now. I feel like I watched you all my adolescent years with nothing but love and admiration, and now you can't even stand the sight of me.
My crush.
I watched you grow and learn, watched you love other men and even waited for a time when I wouldn't be leading you away from a path that you would be more suitably rewarded.
My love.
But even still I couldn't offer you enough. I wrecked everything.
I had never tried so hard to be the best you could have in all my life
My family.
I failed you. And now...
My crush.

Smoke
Smokey bubbles-- Trapped behind glass
Filling up the murky water like spherical clouds of the sea
Bursting in heaven as blissful flatulence
~~~
Lightening my heart, bringing freedom to my womb
Scrawled across my walls
Graffiti inside my heart
~~~
I pull this patience from my well in solitude
Homogenising the cultivated need within to better suit my needs
Breathe deeply and clear
~~~
Resting wickedly -- Passing moments endeared
Acceptance...

"No Offence"
No offence but the way you immediately assume my life is better then yours really bothers me a lot..
And I'm not afraid to speak my mind like some other people...
I'm sorry you took my opinion so personally
But I never meant it as a direct insult on you as a human being...
I was doing my very best to be gentle with your feelings, but your barrage of negativity just wore me down..
I tried to stay positive for both of us but you flipped your lid and wouldn't calm down or listen to reason..
I tried to help you back out of the...

In Passing
I do not know you, but I feel you are a very dear friend of mine...
I'm certain
In some time I have turned to address you.
Even shared my intimate thoughts...
But in this reality you are just a teenage girl wearing a black toque and a flowing coat
Stood silent, alone, waiting for the train.
Our worlds may never even intersect beyond this moment...
May never share any consequent interest past this single interaction
But I'd like to believe in the future if our paths were to cross again that you would...

Dust (I Need This)
I need a sweet heart
I've had enough of these sobs
I want to find you and I don't care who you are. If you love me and want me and desire my heart in your hands it shall be done.
But if you leave me on the shelf I promise when you come back to me your touch will leave my body in ashes as your feelings have already scorned me beyond that of any manageable repair
I'm too far gone to be brought back now
But I'll never give up hope that one day I will find somewhere to rest these dusty hands
That ceaselessly move to keep me from fading away...

Notebook Clips #1 (Weakness)
..Never before have I been so alone
Even my shadow has left me now
My best friend has gone silent
And even I am without words left to say
I feel as though the world itself would stop if I were to cry out now

Jax (The Kid)
I find it odd how as time goes on we find a reason to set down even our most valuable possessions in place of something new..
Something you had once sworn to be your life-blood can become more like your daily bread.
Not necessarily necessary....
I guess even diamonds lose their luster at some point....
~I'll always love you kid. Even when the luster is gone right outta you, I'll be there for you.
Keep shining Jax man
You got light in you even if...

Telephone
I'm going to smash it!!
or hurl it into the river or something!!
why can't I just get rid of you...?!
cheap plastic, glass and components...!
Ringing, buzzing, screaming for my attention!!
Pissing me off at my own beckon call!!
Feeling an obligation to you as if you were an object of....
Of WHAT?!
Feelings?!
AAAAAGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!
I JUST FUCKING hate you
(Please forgive my harsh language, I did not mean to swear...)

Condemn Me
The truth is... I really do want you all to like me
To judge me and hold me to your own standard
To be ridiculed in a loving sort of way
And more over just connect to the real human inside
I want you to take me for granted so I can be needed too
I want you to feel me
To share my inner most thoughts
...But when the time comes that I must face you
I want you to reject my humble soul!
To cast me out for all I have done
I need you to hate me.
To chase me running through the streets
...

Misplaced Feelings of Meaning
Where are you?
I'm sure you can't of gone far...
But it's the anticipation that gets me...
Every time!
I just don't know what to do with myself I guess
But would finding you make that feeling go away?
(Or will we both just be feeling it?)
Now worsened by the presence of company
Or magnified with the abundance of misdirection??
These feelings make me antsy
So much that when I look to my surroundings and try to feel you, I become lost again
I want...

Silhouette
A peeling shadow turns to watch me as a passerby
Sliding flush with their surroundings...
Invisible
All details are distorted--Black
Blotting all that I see
Silent it's communicator
These transmissions you receive...
An eerie glow
Unnatural; a lifeless shade of dull white turning blue
Momentarily mesmerising...
I tear my thoughts away ...
Sliding flush with their surroundings...
Invisible
All details are distorted--Black
Blotting all that I see
Silent it's communicator
These transmissions you receive...
An eerie glow
Unnatural; a lifeless shade of dull white turning blue
Momentarily mesmerising...
I tear my thoughts away ...
