these words at best are worse than teenage poetry.

Franz Kafka is dead.

Sat, 26 Dec 2009 14:55:20 GMT

He died in a tree from which he wouldn't come down. "Come down!" they cried to him. "Come down! Come down!" Silence filled the night, and the night filled the silence, while they waited for Kafka to speak. "I can't," he finally said, with a note of wistfulness. "Why?" they cried. Stars spilled across the black sky. "Because then you'll stop asking for me."

just because we had some good times doesn't mean i miss them. i've been seeing blue skies everyday. but i guess the truth of the matter is that i've been madder at you than you've been at me. i'm still bitter and you're still sweet.

Fri, 18 Dec 2009 08:05:17 GMT

and i'm sorry every day

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 04:37:11 GMT

and you swore you would protect me, and you swore you would not lie.

and all these lonely days lead to lonely nights. and alone at night i sleep, trapped inside what became my life. and it's all because of me.

but one day you'll fall down and there won't be anyone to pick you up again.
one day, you'll fall down and there won't be anyone.

Tue, 08 Dec 2009 18:43:37 GMT

i've been some other place. the wind that i chase it all just leads back to you.
But still, I ran.
I knew you when I was young but what am i now?
Run to you. I will run.
I will move right on through all these things that I have done.
And you'll take me back, i don't know why.
I want to say I'll never do it again, but I can't.
But I will try.

turning on a dime
i just can't trust my instincts
one day my heart beats with passion
the next it waxes back
if i seem a little callused
i assure you it's just a scratch
so if you can hold on
'till the mood swings are gone
then we might just have a chance,
oh no.

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 04:09:46 GMT

are you waiting for a special occasion to give me your heart? because i need a little confirmation to make a real start.

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 22:12:37 GMT

now them butterflies in my stomach won't stop, stop.

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 06:29:24 GMT

none of us forget about who we are so choose a path and follow it. take a pill and swallow it.

Sat, 05 Sep 2009 17:19:38 GMT

a year goes by and i can't talk about it.

Sun, 30 Aug 2009 01:43:04 GMT

smile. it's easier than explaining why you're sad.

Sat, 08 Aug 2009 12:40:11 GMT

hello 7am. i'd be resentful about my lack of sleep, but i'm actually semi-excited to be going to rush workshop. i've missed the house. i've missed all the girls. the meetings, and the weekly routine. i'm ready for football games and themed parties. i'm ready for the crisp fall air and seeing thousands of people walking across campus. i want to sit in boring lecture classes with 500+ students and a teacher over a microphone, and then moan and laugh about it with my friends. i want a fresh start. i want my jam-packed schedule. it's so hectic and chaotic, but i love it. and it's about to begin again.

You can feel it in the air, feeling right this time of year.

Fri, 07 Aug 2009 07:19:53 GMT

you seem like such a big part of my life and my heart, but the truth is i've found someone new, and he easily towers over you.

Sun, 02 Aug 2009 08:06:52 GMT

you used to call me your itty bitty pretty kitty, but now you don't call me at all.
i wish someone else would call me that. do you still think i'm pretty?

never settle

Sun, 02 Aug 2009 06:41:58 GMT

I've forgotten what it feels like to be in love. even when i try and think back on the past, i can remember moments but i can't relive the feelings. they no longer exist. i've forgotten how it is to have someone to think of everytime you watch a sad movie or listen to a cheesy song. i've forgotten the comfort of falling into a routine. suitors come and go because they are unsuitable. i feel like a random puzzle piece that somehow made it into the wrong box. try all you want; there is no match.
well, that's ok.

Thu, 30 Jul 2009 18:41:43 GMT

What peace is there for us whose best love cannot return them even for a day? I raise my head to the door and think I will see you in the frame. I know it is your voice in the corridor but when I run outside the corridor is empty. There is nothing I can do that will make any difference. The last word was yours.

The fluttering in the stomach goes away and the dull waking pain. Sometimes I think of you and I feel giddy. Memory makes me lightheaded, drunk on champagne. All the things we did. And if anyone had said this was the price I would have agreed to pay it. That surprises me; that with the hurt and the mess comes a shaft of recognition. It was worth it. Love is worth it.

Wed, 29 Jul 2009 06:09:50 GMT

i'm starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office, so i'm gonna go to my closet and get me a lover and tell you all about it.

Mon, 27 Jul 2009 05:11:44 GMT

Chaos all around
Explosions and fire
You took me off the ground
And lifted me higher

i'm holding my heart out but clutching it, too.

Sat, 25 Jul 2009 06:14:59 GMT

It's hard to trust anyone to break through and tear walls down;To let yourself think you've found your own safe harbor. How does a heart begin to open, let someone in, to let itself feel and then to find a safe harbor? Faith's a gift only brave hearts bestow and whether or not my heart could be that brave, I don't know. But if we love and lose, it's better than never to have loved at all. When you're tired to the bone and you can go no farther, I'll be there. I'll get you home. I'll be your safe harbor. When the winds blow cold and rough, and the fight grows harder, when you feel you've had enough, I'll be your safe harbor. When the dark descends on you and you're in deep water, don't despair. I'm with you too. I'll be your safe harbor.

why are you striving these days? why are you trying to earn grace? why are you crying? Let Me lift up your face...just don't turn away. Why are you looking for love? Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough? To where will you go, child? Tell Me where will you run. because I'll be by your side whenever you fall, in the dead of night whenever you call. Please don't fight these hands that are holding you.

I want you to know that I love you, and I will never let you go.

My Twittascope: Capricorn
Allow yourself the time to acknowledge that your life is settling down now, even if it doesn't appear that it will last. Nevertheless, be prepared to receive the goodwill that comes your way today. If someone wants to take care of you, don't fight it. Accepting love with an open heart is the right thing to do, even if it makes you feel a bit uncomfortable at first. Monday, June 29, 2009

on the subject of you being gone forever, i still can't believe it. i can't see it. i should just stop counting days. on the subject of the future, wouldn't it be nice to leave it open-ended and pretend it could go either way? if i could have you back again, i think about it once or twice, i guess. if i could have you back, i'd reconsider. maybe i'd say yes. on the other hand it'd be better to have a life without the constant indecision over if i could have you back. on the topic of the time we spent together, i can't say i never wondered if you ever think about those days. thanks for all the lessons learned. practice makes perfect.
