I'm breathing in the smoke of life,
Inhaling past the choking,
Holding in the pain and crap,
Feeling like I'm drowning.
I'm taking one more step towards
A path I know I'm taking
And hoping all I find is
What I know I'm seeking
But all I hold within myself
Is nothing but confusion
A breath of smoke and CO2
And a rash of indecision
If you were there in person you would've seen nothing but a continuous shift of shadows and darkness, but I, being there and having the sight of my people, was able to discern more than movements in the dark and, because this is my story, I'll tell you what happened that night. Truthfully my story starts earlier but it's a long history that's rather all the same in my eyes so I will condense it for you as well. I was born as a Moon Child some several hundred years before the first rainfall in the realm of darkness. I was born as the first child and only daughter of the King and Queen of Darkness. A century after my birth my mother dying g
Trembling in desperation take a shaking breath. Slip into the darkened water and disturb what you cant see. Embrace the fear because I dont know what you face either. I can tell you what to do but I cant tell you what youll find on the path you walk. You wont find the bottom of the pool unless you sink, you wont know how thick the flames are unless you walk through them. Youll either fry or youll be okay, thats all there is to it. I cannot walk the path for you nor make your decisions but I can watch and suggest, but in the end it wont matter all that much to me, I am o
How much longer do I have to pray to my shadow?
How much longer do I have to pray to not shatter?
How much longer do I have to keep asking questions
No one will answer?
How much longer do I have to wonder what it's like
To know what everyone else seems to...
In my path there lies a block,
A large sharp-edged box,
That stops my feet; stops my walk,
All hopes and dreams it mocks.
So to this I inquire,
"Why stop my heart's desire?"
And to my wonder it replies,
"I am the Writer's Block"
(As if an answer it supplies)
But I can't speak past shock.
So minutes pass without a sound
Waiting till my tongue I found.
"Why do you stand in my way?"
I demanded of the box.
The cube spoke not as if to say,
"Have you not heard of Writer's Blocks?"
So I tried to think of things to think
And away from me my thoughts did slink.
"Oh" I said as I remembered
And so the box stood smug,
As I tried to fi
My smiling face meets the rain,
Breaking through my aching pain.
The sunny sky had shone too bright
For me to welcome home such light.
Now in the pouring rain I stand
And feel each small rain drop land
To steal all my useless fears
So in that moment my doubt clears
And once again I have a future.
Kiss your heart and hope to die,
Kiss your eyes and make them cry,
Kiss your lungs and hear them sigh,
Kiss your lips and say good-bye,
Kiss your love and tell that lie...
Slash me different,
slash me deep,
I wish to die the boredom black,
and burgundy,
and ruby with my
life,
and hopes,
and dreams,
and thoughts.
Swallow me with superfluous words
So that I might soak up what matters.
Too slow,
too bad,
too quiet
in this moment.
Sleep with dreams that'll make you
Scream your lungs out.
Your voice -
voiceless,
soundless,
hopeless,
helpless in the dark stained vortex of my boredom.
Feel what I feel, or don't, I feel it enough for both of us.
Don't think this is false in all realization, the specific characteristics of myself and all thin

And once again I have a future.
I sit in a corner.
I sit in the dark.
I sit in solitude.
I sit in oblivion.
I sit and I cry.
I sit and I weep.
I sit and I wish.
I sit and I hope.
I sit in the quiet.
I sit and I scream.
I sit and I hide.
I sit and I break.
Something saving all the dying,
Something worth all of this trying,
Something repaying all the crying,
We broken hearts have done.
Something waking roots so thickly,
Something taking over quickly,
Something making new the sickly,
Who have waited long for this.
Something grieving all the scheming,
Something shaming all the dreaming,
Something changing all the meaning,
That we thought there was.
Something laughing at all reason,
Something deeming acts of treason,
Something creating a new season,
Outside of our perspective.
Something deep, a form of art,
Something warm, a pulsing heart,
Something new, a whole other part,

Escape From Myself
The dead metal of the gun mixes with my cold sweat and steals the warmth from my body. The heavy pounding of adrenaline throughout my numb figure sends it stiffly through the entrance of the elevator. My determination is my constant companion, my only companion. It urges me unwaveringly towards the end of my anguish. Each moment, vast with meaning, passes me by, unsympathetic of my resolve. My gaze settles on the changing numbers above the metal mouth that has just swallowed me. Six floors up, only six more to go.
All eighteen years of my existence have led me to this moment. After everything that has ha

I stop upon the threshold of the battleground. My breath is coming in quiet gasps as I try to slow down my racing heart. Every time my path leads me into battle I am never ready - never ready to use my experience and logic (and luck) to beat the enemy into submission. However, time will not wait for me, the battle is about to start and I have no choice but to become one of the many soldiers in the ordered ranks to either fall or rise to the challenge of life. I could have chosen a different path, one that didnt lead me here, but then I would have been a coward wouldnt I? My entire life everyone has

I love the soundtracks of disney songs.  Everybody should listen to such.  I'll list my five favourites.  You should too.  1. Hellfire from Hunchback of Notre Dame  2. He Lives in You from Lion King 2  3. The Plagues (honourable mention goes to All I Ever Wanted) from The Prince of Egypt  4. Reflection (honourable mention to Short Hair) from Mulan  5. Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid.  There are a lot more songs that I like more than the ones I mentioned, but they're from movies that aren't disney so they don't count for the moment.  
Today. Summer is the most ridiculously stressful season of the entire year. There is no time of the year I hate more than summer. True story. It's so bloody sunny. Hot. And busy. Stressful busy. I can't even get into reading because I'm so stressed. Bloody summer. It does give me a lot of time to day dream. It's too bad that everything I write sounds so childish when it's written on paper. It's much better in my head.
I probably won't post anything until I get a new computer . So give me a few more months. I'm working on it. I'm still writing but just not posting anything soooo.... yeah....
