I cleaned off my wall last night. I removed all traces of them and the memories I was trying to cling to, the memories I was trying to ignore. The thing is, it didn't ever hurt all that bad. That feeling that I usually get, where I get dizzy and shaky and everything stops moving all together, it didn't come until I pulled tokens of their love from my mind.
My wall was bare when I pulled the papers and ornaments away, scattered with holes, a crack running down it, white plaster faded and chipping away. By the time I was done, my fingers were painted black from charcoal drawings, powdery from the pollen of dried flowers.

i came pre-packaged
in mobile cellophane
i was ever flexible
and i'd take all your blame
i was ready for make believe
i'd sing your praises
to lull you fast asleep
mirroring what you loved
and denying what you didn't like
i smiled as you bent me
you cracked my spine
but you said i was damaged
you shoved me under your bed
and let me collect dust
and you said i was useless
you snapped my plastic neck
and betrayed all my trust
i wasn't good enough
to attend your fancy plays
i laughed at your dinner parties
and you dropped me
did you hope that i would break?
when you left me in the dark
you made just one mistake
sitting me
who led who on
who pulled my finger
who let the gas run
when i lit my match
feeling like a stupid bitch
standing on the bridge
stretching out for a kiss
didnt notice the flames rising
as i closed my eyes
and puckered my lips
laughing day after day
hoping that a gentle smile
could make sins melt away
but they had to play with fire
opened up shop
then closed it back down
all the customers ran off
couldn't wait for renovations
couldn't stay during my
mental vacations
i came pre-packaged
and ready for make believe
we sang our praises
i was accidentally damaged
shoved under your dusty bed
and when i came out
i didnt speak
I need the balance of autumn
I need to befriend rock bottom
Your touch is all I yearn for,
but don't you dare get near
I've got to steal your limelight
Just to appreciate midnight
I'm going to slip on the seaweed
when we visit the north shore
I have to swim out with the rip tides
I promise I won't go far
It seems so selfish
to love my edges frayed
to steal their trust and
take their secrets to my grave
tear them apart with half-truths
I don't know any other way
I'm going to slip on the seaweed
when we visit the north shore
I have to swim out with the rip tides
I promise I won't go far
No I won't go out too far
I promise
I've got your spindle,
the thread is thinning.
You've got my scissors,
ready to cut off the tingling.
And I'm willing,
so willing for your amputation.
I'm searching these empty halls
Banging against these walls, dear,
and I swear I feel nothing
You've taken care
You've taken care
You've taken care
of all that.
I'm tied in willows,
strung up in your web.
And you're fluffing pillows,
although I can't feel your bed.
My glass is full
of turpentine steel wool,
and your stained pride,
stung everyone here but me.
You know I'll hold you tonight
You've taken care
You've taken care
You've taken care
of all that.
They all slip

When I saw the snow, I was purely amazed. To me, snow is a time machine. It can take me back. Back to when the US was a big, scary place, full of wonders, full of hope. When the US represented a place empty of horrors, empty of chaos. Full of malls, and money, and glory. The US represented everything life had to offer. When I didn't know any better. When I wore capris that I said were pants, and squinted my eyes and made snow angels. When I made mudpies, my dirty hands conflicting with my more mature clothing. The snow brought these things back to me. It didn't matter that I had moved. The snow draped different houses, different cars. And I w
I feel so cold, in this silence
The rain stains my eyes once again.
I fear my words will just hurt me,
So I won't say anything to you
I close my eyes and scream
Where are you, when you're next to me?
You're standing right next to me, but you're not there.
I hear your voice now, singing strong...
I hear your voice, but not your song.
His voice echoed in her ears, she smiled thinly, closed her eyes and kissed his warm cheek, the summer breeze pushing them to dance in the night. She twirled, her skirt catching the wind and dancing with her, falling backwards into his outstretched arms, security and warmth spreading throughout her body. As she craned her head up to kiss his soft lips, two fingers gently placed themselves on her delicate mouth. He unentangled himself from her, walked out slowly into the distance.
For a moment, she lay in the damp grass, letting the clean, crisp smell seep into her bones, arms over her head, kicking her flip flops off and running her toes th
I used to know her
I used to talk about her
Waiting for the day that she would listen
I used to know her
I used to stick up for her
Something in her smile was so bitchin'
I used to sing, I used to sing
I used to know her
Used to know all about her
I used to need her
There was something about her
I'm used to torture
It's the best way around her
I used to know her
Now it just doesnt matter, oh yeah
Oh yeah...
I used to fuck him
I used to simplify him
Something in his walk was like jim morrison
I used to touch him
I used to justify him
Lying to my face with my permission.
I used to sing, I used to sing
I used to fuck him
Amazon.com has nothing on Ebay.
Its so easy, so quick, so curteous... and it has better selection and rarer items. Addictions are completely understandable.
I may develop one. Who knows?
thanksgiving is one of the best holidays. I will be making the pies. The stuffing, too. And the squash, and maybe the potatoes.
that is assuming, of course, that the young children do not kill me tonight.
And, the eternal question:
"Where's my lip gloss??"
