speak up, my ears are growing weary
as the light begins to breach the border,
while i lay here alone
and watch the waves crash over me.
their bittersweet salt in my mouth and eyes;
i'll take this sedative alone.
you deserve so much more than this, my friend.

i derive a simple pleasure from looking at people. i live vicariously through others. you may say i'm ill, but i say i'm sick.
making bad decisions and playing pretend in real life all of my life. things don't start and things don't end. they are the products of the bricks you've put on my chest. the police won't know what to do with a doppelganger on the loose. we'll steal your sneakers and string them up on the power lines. we'll spit in your food. we'll push your kids down in the park. we'll unleash you dogs from your backyards. we don't care about how mad you are because we don't have to come forward. our chests are caving in, but we still grin our toothy grins and cry our crocodile tears.

From the day we are born until the day we die we have promises to keep and miles to go before we sleep, miles to go before we sleep. Those woods may be lovely, dark and deep, but we have no spare time to live and explore them. We are set on a rigid path bound by our predestined obligations to the very life, liberty and happiness that we are being denied. We will go in circles around the edge of the forest, always looking in but never daring to step in, for fear of change. But that change is comfort, that change is peace. That change is exactly what we travel in circles looking for, dragging the chains shackled to us on the days of our births. These are the chains of freedom we wear, cuffed to our ankles and wrists, while the woods calmly beckon to us just out of reach. Always out of reach.

my dad
deals with things he shouldn't have to deal with but he made that deal with the devil and even though it's a bad deal he deals with it.
he works for his ungrateful kids. all kids are ungrateful until the day daddy dearest is gone.
he works in his workshop, the old familiar smell.
doing work he shouldn't have to do, but no one else will do it.
he puts on his grownup shoes every morning, reluctant of course.
i doubt i could fill those shoes.
my dad does all of these things because he loves us. even if we drag him down.

certificates
i don't think my momma knew
what she was getting into.
we spread our time as best we can,
but the world takes it all back in the end.
we managed to break and bend
all of the rules but still
came out last.
what the hell went wrong?
just what the hell went wrong?
my days are in flux;
i'm knocking on death's door, crawling through an empty womb.
stake me down, keep me still.
i wasn't even supposed to be here, anyway.

i
apologize for the plethora of grammatical errors in the zodiac post. it is late and my mind moves faster than my fingers.

the zodiac is quite interesting. and just for this simple fact really. it is practically all you need to know about the zodiac to find your perfect match or a perfect friend.
the zodiac is divided into 4 elements; fire, earth, air, water
each of the 4 elements have 3 signs under them, making for 12 signs, one for each month, comma splice.
now obviously each element goes great together, but keep this in mind as well:
air feeds fire, earth absorbs water
applying that to relationships with other people; an air sign's wit and mental agility would fuel a fire sign's creativity.
a water sign's emotional, caring personality would soothe and soften the hard, steady heart of an earth sign.
obviously those are just vague, general examples, but i encourage anyone to go brush up on astrology and the science behind it, because honestly, it is so complex that it is practically a science. not to mention, if you look at any nominally successful relationship, the reasons behind the success are written in the zodiac.

i'll never be able to decide if being captain or being first-mate suits me better.
this boat is too big for me to steer, but i'll steer it better than anyone else could.
outlets cannot cure cancer; we are doomed.

you'll have to fill in the blanks because i am too scared to live my life.
i can't even touch these words. it's like they're not really here or something?
the big moron and the little moron were standing on the bridge over the River Send. the big moron fell off. how come the little moron didn't fall off, too?
the little moron didn't fall off because he was a little more on.
