i long desperately for my old release
to just write out my thoughts
with such ease and honesty
it seems there just isn't time for that anymore
running away to the land of poetry
seems like such a distant dream
i've tried many times
yet the words just don't come out quite right
thoughts and emotions tangled inside
wanting a means of escape
days full of struggle
disappointment
jealousy
exhaustion
fear
maybe even love
but for each of those feelings
the others have no hope
trapped eternally within my mind
so here's my sad attempt
to free some space within my mind
i'm determined to fight harder this time
no chance of
How I wish it could last
I would give most anything
For things to be the way they used to be
But those days will not return
Theres no point dwelling on the past
Instead Ill walk next to you
Being closer than we have in so long
I can feel your pulse
My breath quickens
You trust me so much more that I trust myself
But do I deserve it?
Youre the one with the control
Keeping me from slipping up yet again
Here I am with you
So comfortable
Everything is so right
Yet so wrong at the same time
I miss you so much
I test myself
Closing my eyes
I lay my head on your shoulder
Your forehead touches mine
I attempt to
rain pounding on the roof
running like tears down the windows
lightning flashes across the sky
lighting up the sad world below
thunder roars not far behind
shaking the very foundations of life
this storm keeps raging after all this time
nothing can seem to stop it
now the rain is glowing red
as the lightning flashes in her eyes
a thunderous convulsion shakes the ruins of her body
crumpled against the broken window,
her shattered hopes of life
fate is such a twisted thing
pulling her victims around
lulling them into a sense of security
only to edge them slowly over the cliffs edge
their only hope
a soft landing
if they get lucky, they can be a few steps ahead
running through the downpour
taking a leap of faith with closed eyes
waiting for feet to touch ground
fates past victims lie below
perpetually tormented in this crazy inferno
maybe one day fate will decide
and there will be no more leaps and falls
but for now these anguished souls
will just keep spinning
in and out of sight
limited in their controls
resting only briefly in fates icy hand
just try
what could it hurt
maybe every time i talk to you
it makes me want to cry
it feels like im clinging
to that last little bit of me
not willing to change
not wanting to lose myself
wandering alone
longing for someone, anyone
something to hold on to
the world is a disappointment
society has gone down hill
sadly it may not be possible for it to ever return
just because everyone does it
seems to make it ok
that is so far from the truth
not everyone does
who is this everyone people speak of anyway
to become a part of everyone
you must assimilate to them
originality?
self control?
ideals?
theres an antidote for those
simply surround yourself in the media
theyll tell you how it works
what is expected of you
how to become part of everyone
you cant be just you
you aren
your words
they put her in a state of shock
emotions rush through her
many of them against her will
joy
misery
hope
confusion
hatred
and just a twinge of
no that one she cannot feel
it goes back into hiding deep within her
beneath the tears
behind the self pity
she cherishes those few horrific moments
knowing thoroughly
that nothing will ever change

The first shoes created by that first daring caveman weren't so good. Vine-and-bark flip-flops seemed like a grand idea, but when you're a hunter-and-gatherer caveman in the heat of the chase-just on that sabertooth's tail-and the brittle vine of your shoe snaps from being left out in the afternoon heat too much that day, resulting in not only the loss of your meal but also a face-plant and a mouthful of dirt, the whole concept seems less convenient.
However, frustrated into action after one too many face-plants, a single caveman set to work impro

mmm i had a lovely dream last night
and in the fact that the dream pleased me and didn't terrify me
i feel as though i've been making progress
i like the possibilities my subconscious is now ok with

i jump ahead a few weeks
and think about how hard its going to be
and want nothing more
than to curl up into ball
and just sleep through the rest of my life
i'm scared
and pessimistic
and...*sigh*
