i know pain like i know my
way home from a one-night
stand. & we're familiar like
that: went way past the 3rd
base on the 1st date. don't judge me honey, i know that what lies twixt
my thighs isn't exclusive so
lemme use it to my
advantage & secure me a
meal for tonight. he needs a good time and i need to forget about shit.
sure, we'll both regret it in
the morning but it beats being lonely right now, so pass me the Henny, the heroine & the white pill.
no, leave the viagra, that's for him. he'll need it to take me just where i wanna go....

And It Still Hurts
It still hurts, like it did when I was fourteen years old in my bedroom staring at the ceiling wondering if life could get any better than how I liked to imagine it could be; when my tears dried up on the sides of my face resembling the barren desert in which my childhood joys lied lifeless. It still hurts like how the Boogeyman I grew to ignore is still there under my bed, writing me love letters about how he misses the sound of me crying myself to sleep every night. 'It made me feel alive how much you wished to die,' he wrote once. But I'm grown up now, or at least I thought I was - yet it...

I was draking when I wrote this
I don't know why you didn't let me come visit you. I can't fathom why you never let me in - into the part of your world that I thought to be a daring mystery; into your world so I could know you like I wished to, and be so close to you that the distance between us was just a myth. And none of us would care to prove its validity, 'cause you wanted me and I wanted you, and that's all that mattered. But now nothing matters: except that I miss you so much I wish you had let me come... so I'd have more memories to cry over; more time with you to mourn over. But all I can cry about now is that...

The Great Escape
You drink so they can see you. You set fire to your lungs so you can see your reflection in the clouds of smoke that rise lazily from your lips. Just so you feel like you exist. Just so you feel like you're alive. And you know that by sunrise it'll be all over, like some damned Cinderella story. You know this, yet you need the escape so desperately that the moment - however temporary - is enough. 'Smoke some more, baby, it'll slow time and take your mind off things,' they pass you the joint. But what is it that you're running from? What is it that you don't want to feel? You stare into space...

Heartache Chronicles 2
They all think I'm a villain because of what I did to you and you probably think so too. You haven't the slightest idea of how tormented Judas felt in the moments he realised the treachery of what he'd done, but I think I do. He was the one: predestined to betray the Son, yet even that which was written in the stars could not release him from his regret so, himself, he hung. You despise me for being too weak to face the excruciating hurt that I felt everytime I reached out to you and you pushed me away. And it did hurt; everytime I dialed your number and I held my breath, anticipating your...

Heartache Chronicles 1
I'm waiting to cry, again. I try to but everytime I begin, someone darts into my room expecting to see a smile on my face - so I give it to them, because I did say I'd be okay.
I guess only you could tell when I'm lying.
