lying to myself

there's a haunting happening in the dark dusks of my heart, a husk of a beating, a bleating, fleeting attempt to convince myself everything is fine and right with a love with a lover who can't look me in the eye and tell me I'm what they want. I'm hurting hatred waiting to flame, stuck in an hourglass with no flip and no sand left to sift through-- this is a broken climax, stranger darling, and if I'm not the crescendo to your chorus man up and move along so I can because I touch myself in the night and whisper sweet nothings to your back as you sleep but I'm beginning to think I'm begging for company from the wrong man because you're not re

Subliminal Apology

[The cigarettes tasted different last night.] With tears and laughter and anger and the lingering of "I love you" dancing on my tongue, I walked outside and floated.  Eyes closed, fingers wrapped tightly around that glowing white stick, I remembered truth.   The truth - the honesty - of myself and who I am versus everything I've thought I wanted to be.  And here I am, breaking apart the thoughts and imaginings of a person unintentionally stoned off love and over the counter drugs.  Who is that girl that longed to be a woman?  Where is she now that she has her chance?  It is funny (

10 reasons Religion is Immoral

1) You can't question faith. The religious texts are believed despite mountains of evidence against them- If they were anything other than 'Holy' they would be sitting next to Harry Potter and Twilight right now. 'Because God said so' or 'Because I have faith' does not prove anything, anymore than me believing in Dragons because I saw one on a Welsh Flag and my flatmate told me the DO exist. It is also completely illogical for a society which relies in science to have such an attitude, I know enough from my boring statistics work that you need a LOT of evidence just to say 'this does not disprove the hypothesis'. But if I say 'you don't get

Paint

Skin spoils as the golden glow Rusts to become pitiful brown Masks become reliant As all faded lights need replacement Pathetic attempts of beauty Create dark illusions Concluding in heartless faces As lies grow too dependent The fear of reality increases too far As others laugh, taunt and pick Seductive fumes overcome The sincerity of the original True souls pushed Into cold, dark rooms To be hidden and forgotten.

Hey, it's time you go to bed

Sitting on my bed It's already late A room plunged into darkness Seems like an endless moment Hours could turn to days I wouldn't notice Since I'm away Yet I hear you coming Like all other nights Bringing a little piece of light The speech won't change Not a single variation I close my eyes and again I hear you say ...

Mr. Grizz's Nannette

 There once lived a girl named Nannette who lived all alone in her isolated home with her sole companion Mr. Grizz, her animate teddy bear. At times she was permitted by her bear to venture in the yard, but her life was in her home, which was large for a house but small for a world. When playing in the backyard, Nannette would, at times search for a glimpse of the outside world. She would lean with tippy-toes against her teddy bear’s green bushes that fenced the entire yard, but Mr. Grizz’s plants proved too high to peak over and too think to sneak through. The sky, thankfully, was visible. However, if the sun shown too brightly, th
