Left you, Abandoned @ 07:56 pm

My body's an empty house, the staircase of my spine is splintered
watch your step
the floorboards are rotten and water logged with words of disease.
Forgotten.
Creaky house, facing the cliffs, the drop off is far,
instead of pushing...
Could you lend me a hand, a kind face turned cruel. Weather erodes tree trunks into old souls.
Broken eyes,
you see through. Shattered windows remind me of lost hope.
The shingles are deteriorating, the angel's tears fall from the star beds above,
the voice of beauty.
It hurts your ears to hear the truth;
that I'm leaving.
The void is unsettling, old pictures in the attic left to gather dust.
You can't remember anything, you can't keep everything, nothing lasts forever.
The house engulfs in flames

haunted by the ghost of the girl i use to be @ 02:24 pm

i miss music, and my hair before i fucked it up.
atleast i didn't cut it.

i miss the summer, and it's false freedom. i miss long days and humid nights,
i miss the train tracks and the sound of thunder that storms bring

i miss my windows and the undertow, i miss the sky

and the stars
and the stars

in his free time doesn't think anyone understands him he sits among leaves in trees and watches the sky all night almost waiting almost sure someones gonna come and take him away

I am like Jesus @ 09:45 pm

sitting down for my last meal eager to get reacquainted with my bones
i break bread and share it with the saints waiting knees pressed hard against the floor
this is a solemn meal
hands touch as my body is passed down the table
eyes wide as water melts into wine
saints faces shadowed as they each taste my blood
i am ready
i am ready to show my bones

I can't begin @ 12:02 am

to explain how i feel
or what i feel
or if i even feel at all

im so worn out
from being so sad
about what never happened

all boys
seek and destroy
then leave the rest
for the ants

do they feel?

can i say all these things
without being a hypocrite

do i feel?

is there any say
on your part
or on my part
on any part

were there parts at all?

love is staged
for the eager hearted
and for the hungry eyes

starving
but almost perfect

the stars are watching you @ 06:14 pm

as you watch them too
the stars know you better than you do

because where you stand
is on mossy rocks

and you are in the chainsmoking mood

with your thoughts thinking faster than you can think
you seem confused. but you feel right

you know that you do belong
because you always belong in the birdcage

does it hurt when @ 07:03 pm

your heart is shattered
and there's nothing left to stand for
because they've taken it all away

i've seen uglier
but i've also seen prettier

because your nothing
a blurr in a cracked mirror of lost hope
lost everything

and you can only cry in the rain

December 19th, 2007

Just hold my hand..... @ 08:06 pm

Current Mood: calm

and I'll hold your spraypaint
and together we can
bomb the world
just you and me
and cities full of
blank canvases
that we can make beautiful
like our love
should be
