On letting go,
Do you remember the time you tweeted@me, you were beyond exhaustion but you refused to go to sleep without me by your side. “Baby, I just need you.” - that’s what you said to me that night. and of course I came to you, how could I not. You were you and you were mine and that was all I needed to hear.
So I slept in my place in your arms, and I woke up and remember marveling at...
All Choked Up by Say Anything
On Bullshit,
“When we characterize talk as hot air, we mean that what comes out of the speaker’s mouth is just that. It is mere vapor. His speech is empty, without substance or content. His use of language, accordingly, does not contribute to the purpose it purports to serve. No more information is communicated than if the speaker had merely exhaled. There are similarities between hot air and excrement,...

A Dream Within A Dream
Take this kiss upon the brow! And, in parting from you now, Thus much let me avow-- You are not wrong, who deem That my days have been a dream; Yet if hope has flown away In a night, or in a day, In a vision, or in none, Is it therefore the less gone? All that we see or seem Is but a dream within a dream. I stand amid the roar Of a surf-tormented shore, And I hold within my hand Grains of the...

THE FUCK.
I don’t know what’s going on in your head and it’s freaking me out. I’m sure you could tell, I lost control tonight and things got excessive but you can’t blame me for being confused. Really really fucking confused. I mean, from the talk we had yesterday, to what happened tonight…I can’t even begin to fathom what’s going on right now. I’m torn...

You are worth it though. It just takes a little while to realize it…but you are. Don’t think you’re not good enough cause that’s not it at all. It might be because we do realize how great you are and we get intimidated and realize that we can’t match how much you care.
Like, I guess that’s nice of you to say. BUT THAT FUCKING SUCKS..
Still In The Fleeting
Time and time and time and time And words and words that sometimes rhyme And sounds that speak and thoughts that think And drip and drip and slowly sink Into my mind, my mind and mind And leave my head and head behind But time and time and time and time And words and words that rarely rhyme Will sleep inside my dizzy head And dance and dance and dance instead Until I let them out and out To dip...

Drained.
It’s not like I didn’t know that this was going to happen. Basically everyone I knew was trying to encourage the end from the very beginning. A slew of cautionary tales and blown up pep talks about how special I really am. I could do better than this…that. But who were they to tell me what was real. People who didn’t even know him. People who didn’t even know us. No...
