the wondersmith & his sons
on the tail of my quarry,
on a woman weak for charming men,
who's holding what I need.
She'll leave her window cracked for me,
and I'll draft in like the breeze,
my father was a charming man and I learned it all from he.

stolen from my father because i couldn't say it any better.
in seeing
there’s a loss.
a certain sense of emptiness
an
infinite
hopelessness
in experiencing life
through your heart,
through your blood,
through each breath.
seeing
lays dormant
then rises
to an awareness
‘til you’re
running,
chasing,
capturing,
a moment
after
a moment
before
many
moments...
before
the loneliness
&
loss
return
seeing...
it comes and goes.
it is not sympathetic
nor apologetic
there is no empathy
it is by nature
natural
the antithesis
of love
the moral keeper
of
ambiguity

tremors - two tongues
to say what is on my mind
I guess I'm prone to shake and sweat
confounded every time
I see you do the things you do
Pale and bright you shine
Because I need you here with me
I need you just to see me
I need you here with me, yeah it is only a dream to me
I knew that you could save my life,
without a words exchange
your way with words, so insecure
can barely speak my name
My crumbled spine, and faulty lines
I'm sick and small and strange
I need you here with me
I need you just to see me
I need you here with me, yeah it is only a dream to me

last night turned out to be such a good night, i'm so thankful to have taylor as my one and only best girl friend. there are other girls out there who i love to death - don't get me wrong. but wow, i seriously love the hell outta this bit. went to her house in one of the worst moods possible and left happier than i have been in a while. this weather sucks, but driving around to find a pizza place that had power was so damn fun. especially when i was secretly only wanting chanellos. hehe :)
anyways, i'm in such a good mood today, i hope everything goes well and i get to spend some time with donald today. i'm still bummed as hell that i won't be seeing brand new, but whatever...guess it's meant to be? shit happens for a reason - gotta stick to it.

prefect song for tonight - too bad i won't be seeing them tomorrow.
I used to be so original.
I used to care, I was being cared for.
Made sure I showed it to those that I love.
I used to sleep without a single stir,
'Cause I was about my father's work.
Well take me out tonight,
This ship of fools I'm on will sink.
A millstone around my neck,
{If you'd} be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.
I used to pray like God was listening.
I used to make my parents proud.
I was the glue that kept my friends together,
Now they don't talk and we don't go out.
I used to know the name of every person I'd kissed.
Now I've made this bed and I can't fall asleep in it.
Well take me out tonight,
This ship of fools I'm on will sink.
A millstone around my neck,
{If you'd} be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.
Throw me that lifeline,
This ship of fools I'm on will sink.
A millstone around my neck
{If you'd} be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.
"They never hit their brakes..."
"There was no time to see..."
"He just ran out in the street..."
"Does anybody know his name?"
"I think I recognize him..."
"He sure as hell paid for that mistake..."
Woah.
So take me out tonight.
This ship of fools I'm on will sink.
A millstone around my neck.
{If you'd} be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.
Well save my life tonight.
This ship of fools I'm on will sink
A millstone around my neck
{If you'd} be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.
buying a 6 pack of
yuengling tomorrow, suck it.

if you still lurk my shit:
you know, i really need to keep this shit in mind because honestly, i am here to make myself happy. i'm not by any means saying that i won't/shouldn't keep other people's feelings in consideration, but i'll be damned if i'm going to allow myself to be miserable for someone else's benefit, ya dig? with that being said, i want to be your friend, i truly, truly want everything between us to be okay. that's all i want, i don't expect us to ever be half as close as we once were, but i do expect you to be somewhat nice to me when all i have is an open heart and mind for you. i want you to be happy, and i have told you this many, many times. so what is your deal? i give you all the respect i believe i should, but don't get that confused with the respect i think you deserve. so why do i keep making this exception for you? because you are who you are, and i am who i am. stop taking it for granted.

Thursday, September 10, 2009
i am dying for some money.
honestly, really, seriously selling all of my shit tomorrow.
i know a pawn shop won't give me shit, but i've given up.
i hate my life, i am miserable. all i want is a job.
maybe someone to keep me company, too.
i've never had so much "down time" in my entire life, and i'm starting to prefer being alone over going out with friends, which is a serious problem...it's weird and i don't like it. at all.
i'm sad.
Was losing them to drinking and to driving
Was losing all my friends but I got them back
I am on the mend
At least now I can say that I am trying
And I hope you will forget things I still lack
Yeah
Yeah
Is it in you now?
To bear to hear the truth that you have spoken
Twisted up by knaves
to make a trap for fools
Is it in you now?
To watch the things you gave your life to broken
And stoop and build them up with worn out tools
Yeah *Chorus*
Nothing gets so bad
A whisper from your father couldn't fix it
Your whispers like a bridge, he's a river span
Take all that you have
and turn it into something you were missing
Somebody threw that brick
And shattered all your plans
Yeah *Chorus*
Time to get the seeds into the cold ground
It takes a while to grow anything
Before its coming to an end yeah
Before you put my body in the cold ground, take some time to warm it with your hands
Before it's coming to an end, yeah
It's coming to an end
Do you miss the blend
Of colours she left in your black and white field
Do you feel condemned just being there?
I am not your friend
I am just a man who knows how to feel
I'm not your friend
I'm not your lover,
I'm not your family.
Yeah *Chorus*
Time to get the seeds into the cold ground
It takes a while to grow anything
Before it's coming to an end yeah

The closest thing we had to royalty,
A chance to break our parents’ patterns.
We chose to keep our teenage tragedy,
In lieu of a romantic palace.
Play tender like a new born baby would.
Play tender 'til the night is over.
I’m leaving you to nurture cherished wounds,
And care for it just like your lover, yeah.

ps - i don't give a shit
9/3/09: wake up at 8:15 - get to class and bullshit while the rest of the class learns shit that i could do blindfolded due to taking it a 3rd, yes, 3rd time. get outta class, drive home...bullshit some more, get in the car, ride shot-gun to greensboro, nc all the while finishing off "i hope they serve beer in hell" and laughing my ass off the whole way there.
9/4/09: wake up whenever the fuck i want to, probably earlyish because my body is becoming accustom to this rediculous act (which sucks - but only mildly). hangout with my cool ass family, hopefully do some cool shit, and eat some good food.
9/5/09: decide just how much i - as opposed to a few days before (actually being right now) love my family and love the southern states in general. oh, and i will eat the best dinner ever because it's the night before we leave, and you know how the south is and showing good hospitality or whatever. (if you don't know, i am very sorry for you)
9/6/09: wake up, eat some breakfast, bullshit, talk, bullshit, hug people, and ride shotgun/drive home with my mother who is the coolest woman in the world. get home at a decent hour i hope, hangout with francesca and hopefully some of my cooler friends, and have a good night.
9/7/09: hangout with francesca some more, bullshit, and talk to her about everything you could ever think of. probably read her some of this book, too. only cause her bf's name is tucker, and unlike tucker max, he is by far one of the nicest guys i have ever met and probably ever will meet, knowing me and how i tend to scare away every nice guy that approaches me even as a "friend". ya! hopefully i'll get drunk this night, too. that would be nice. MMM, 5 day weekends are a blessing to a girl like me.

i hate chuck norris jokes...but there's always an exception to every rule when it comes to me.
i read that last night in some stupid book filled with chuck norris jokes and loled for at least 20 minutes. everyone else looked lost, i guess you have to know that poem to get the joke and enjoy it to its fullest. anyway, who cares...i thought that shit was hilarious!

eye <3 william blake
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare sieze the fire?
And what shoulder, & what art.
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand? & what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

i'm so so so so so sorry i'm such an inconvenience to you. i'm sorry for my constant struggle to have somewhat of a normal relationship with you. i'm sorry for being so "out of the way." i'm sorry i think it's completely fucking ridiculous, no - hilarious, that your wife can spend $350 on lingerie and it be no big deal but when i ask for a mere $200-$250 for school books it's a problem. if my education wasn't so damn important to me, i would be more than happy to completely disappear out of your life. trust me. i'm tired of feeling like the red-headed step child. i'm tired of feeling like i'm not worth your time. i'm tired of you never being seriously involved in my life. fyi: i don't care what any of you who read this think, so fuck off if you have anything negative to say about the following: with that being said, it really fucking bothers me how much i care about your feelings when mine clearly don't matter half as much to you. maybe they do? who knows? it sure would be nice to be certain about anything when it comes to you. my mom says that she thinks sometimes you just don't think about things before you carry them out, well you know what? i don't give a shit. you are an adult, yeah, sure...you make mistakes. i realize no one is perfect, and i realize everyone has flaws, but i am tired. i'm tired of being your flaw, i'm tired of being your mistake, and most of all, i'm tired of searching for a dad who's never going to be there. not for my graduation for you to tell me how proud you are, not for my prom to tell me how beautiful i look, not for the days when i just needed someone to talk to, not for the guidence throughout my teenager years, not for the nosebleeds i inherited from you, not for knowledge on how to take a good photograph, not for any of the things i really needed you to be HERE for. i push everyone who gets even remotely close to me so far away it's not even funny. why? because you make me feel like i'm not good enough for anyone. if i don't feel like i'm good enough for my father, who am i good enough for? i wish i knew.

all i can listen to is brand new. obsess much?
I love you so much that it hurts my head
Say, "I don't mind you under my skin
I'll let the bad parts in, the bad parts in"
Well when we were made we were set apart
But life is a test and I get bad marks
Now some saint got the job of writing down my sins
The storm is coming, the storm is coming in
Sunday, August 23, 2009
you have no idea how much i both love & hate this picture and you never will. this looks just like you in the picture i took in my living room when the walls were still intact and your hair was long, those were the best days of my life. you were my best friend, my love, my everything. you taught me what it was like to love and be loved, and i'll always remember that. i miss you so much, friend, but mostly just the shy quiet guy who would stay up until 4am on a school night talking on the phone even though we both hated it. i could write about you for hours, but i won't. simply because i know you couldn't do the same for me. not anymore, at least.

The kind you'd find on someone that could save
If they don't put me away
It’ll be a miracle
Do you believe you're missing out?
That everything good is happening somewhere else
But with nobody in your bed
The night is hard to get through
And I will die all alone
And when I arrive I won’t know anyone
Well, Jesus Christ, I’m alone again
So what did you do those three days you were dead?
Because this problem's gonna last
More than the weekend
Well, Jesus Christ I’m not scared to die
I’m a little bit scared of what comes after
Do I get the gold chariot
Do I float through the ceiling
Do I divide and fall apart
Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark
This ship went down in sight of land
And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands?
I know you'll come in the night like a thief
But I’ve had some time alone to hone my lying technique
I know you think that I’m someone you can trust
But I’m scared I’ll get scared and I swear I’ll try to nail you back up
(everyone now)
So do you think that we could work out a psalm
So I’ll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try
I know you'll come for the people like me
But we all got wood and nails,
And talk dirt at hating factories
But, we all got wood and nails
And talk dirt at hating factories
Yeah, we all got wood and nails
And we sleep inside of this machine
