This entry is always at top. Yeah. This is where I write. It's crap, I know. Don't need to tell me. It's just to release, this is my air. My train of thought, completely random yet not. That's it. Don't try to understand it. It's not physical or emotional or sexual. They're not about a boy or a girl or a lover. They're just words. Or maybe they are. What do I know?

If you really want to, ask me about my regular journal.




OLDEST ENTRIES: here. Here you can say "ohmagod Caroline!"- and then I'll be all like, "What?" And cough. Silence. "Who the hell is Caroline?" Be careful girl. Caroline might set your hair on fire. You never really know, with kids these days. True story, heard it from a friend.

i guess, maybe, just-
our time is up.

February 6th, 2008 2:40 am
i don't think that you could ever understand. [
]
if i told you
this is what i was thinking
that waking is a task alone
and maybe
i just would rather
not
they would inject my veins with toxins
and practice speeches
attempt to let me unlearn what i have learnt;
the truth
indisputably
no therapy can change about this,
this
this
this
me
anomalism
malformation
expendable.

I wander the night alone. [
]
I will admit to this- in surly candour
there is no
earthquake
heartquake
heartshake
heartache
lovecake
lovemake
lovetake
break (for my own sake)
inside my chest.
But maybe, for once,
I wish there was.

I wish not for more trauma to my insides
perhaps it’s true what they say
there are too many trying to get in,
I’m suffocating in, a little bit.

I use no artifice, no stratagem.
I will not attempt to ensorcell any living being
They simply come in a calalcade
Lining up for the execution
And oh, it leads me to paroxysms of melancholy
So how do I expect to ameliorate
my
own
heart
shake
ache
quake
break

I’ll leave be the bravado at the door, as my armor absconds
whilst I am turned around
and I will admit-

What I really need is a
heartwake.

i'm kind of lame, i guess. [
]
the complexity of my inability to properly recuperate is often miscommunicated.
i'd like to say i'm falling all over myself in celebration, but i'm simply just another, run run (distilled).
it's just that, yesterday, i was five (it's oh so clear) and then i was eleven and thirteen and seventeen.
and yet i speak as though i have been affected by a cataclysm
or like i am thousands and thousands
nineteen is just, like the most, a drop of youth. i'm unchanged. i'm hardly here, in minutes.
in the inevitable span, i'm less than infinite, a glitch in time.
maybe this year, as i say so every year, i'll wash my hands of misdemeanors.
i'll crash into cowardice, sans seatbelt & clenched fists.
i'll run a marathon.
i'll hover above the ground, because we know aging lends wing to feet.
i'll learn spanish.
i'll grow.
i'll stop my heart, right in its place, at the right moment. and i won't run.
(but we know, this won't, i won't, you won't, probably not.)
because nothing's all that different anyways except
well
i can buy porn

drawing blood for nameless gods [
]
the pain, that day, was inevitable.
conversely, the smell of    
 fresh grass on the back pockets of      
our jeans brought about     
an unmistakable vivid tenacity for life, the kind that leaves your
shaking palms drawing blood for nameless gods.
i would then press my damp fingers over your eyelids, and tentatively
bite at each and every indicia of vertigo-
hungrily, not    
 even as testament of our liaison, but as snow white, as eve.
in benevolent curiosity and abysmal indignation, in genuine,    
 back-aching, cardiac exploding, nail biting candor and naïveté,
 i would let crucify, just for you.     i would cautiously desperately
 foolishly exultantly  
acquiescently do what i can    
 to elate, as to your appeal.     
when i would wake, i would find    
myself alone and arching, with greened knees
and
your fever
wrapped around me like a bouquet.

disillusioned [
]
the non-attendance of my own self has been dually noted
I have a tendency to be wary of discerning reveries with reality, as it strikes a fear into my very cold bones
many a nights when I rouse midst the dead of the dark
I find myself stretching from one reality to another-
vocalized with the deliberate, compliant veracity only found in imaginings,
I speak aloud
to a particular no one or nonexistent or displaced someone
from that of which I had just woke
and when risen from this trance, I share a fleeting look with my own self
to be fervently frightened
like facing my own fatality, like death’s keeper herself
and as I watch the lines of my own eyes blur in and out,
disorienting,
I wonder if I am really gazing at my own glassed likeness
or truly, my own flickering oversoul
a doppleganger fiend staring back at me
this on its own in its own ridiculousness fails not to waft by me
constantly interrupting every last sense of rationality in me
and in this dead of night, leaves me hesitant from even but turning away from my very own silhouette
in case it decides to get up from behind me
and
create incisions in my lungs and perhaps
slit my throat

last chance left to dance, even when there's blood on my hands. [
]

You had said, “place a finger through this chasm and let each pound- thump thump thump- embed themselves into each echelon of your inner self-” like you are important, like you’re someone, like you are a fortune cookie or Gandhi or my neighbour’s dog-  (I don’t even like dogs)
and now I’m frowning (in indifference)

because I can feel your heartbeat (much to my dismay)

and you are expecting me to simply dive back into you even though last I recall I was submerged headfirst without a life jacket or adequate wading skills and most importantly without so much as a glance in my direction from you, the certified instructor, the avant-garde liberator, the affable, cordial redeemer.
Back track to my unwavering mortal reflexes, the innate requisition for survival.
I’d find my way back up.
It’s not even that you left a wound because I’m breathing aren’t I? Poised, I surfaced, with my hands searching, attempting to grab onto nothing and everything.
It’s that you left me there, flailing uselessly, naught in the direction of aid, or even a smile.

(So here we are.)
A hole in your heart left by my gun and my fist leads you back to where we stand and while I stare into your frighteningly cerulean blue eyes and your matted flaxen hair (look at you with your palms facing down and that shamefaced grin, you may surpass me in age but you’re no more than a boy) I’m grateful for this calculated self-created deficit of affection.
I won’t allow for more than what we’re here for. (I won’t succumb, not again.)
There is an awkwardness in you I am unaccustomed to.
It must be that I can see right into you, and at any moments time-
reach out and-
Oh you’re defenseless and I haven’t got a bandage made for that sort of perforation.
(Play dough would cover the draft but you’d like that and I’m not here to amuse little boys.)
Let’s just keep this between us and move on. I promise, at best, that when the hurricanes come, to stand in front of you so you won’t have to feel the storm pulsating through you.

At least, for the first five minutes.

April 7th, 2007 10:43 am
lines [
]
Our metaphysical disturbance has led to a declination in our elegiac effigy
The lines of your jaw are no longer a distraction for these parted lips
I have no thirst to trace a lone finger along the lines of your hipbones, your cheekbones
The lines that once anchored me to you have detached themselves reflexively, unhooking and unraveling like days shifting forwards and backwards (unresponsive, really, like the lines through time)
I must admit, idea of lines bearing witness to a tangential but consequential vision is sultry. Hard expressions aside, I like lines. The lines of an era, the lines of the atlas you call your palm, your proverbial glare- the lines of a square, the lines in prose and those that form linkages and lineages and history
I was drawn to this, with you.
But enough is enough and I’m no longer prepared to tango with Mephistopheles if he won’t let me lead.
I’m willing to remember that we all have the same lines under our skin-
I won’t forget it this time.

Retribution [
]
I want to away with this feeling by
presenting it to innocent bystanders, a dowry of  errant value- oh my wayward ways-
with my hands knotted into bows behind my back, symbolism pertaining to my evident blamelessness (but oh clearly this is an fabrication, you fathom well)
I want
I want to give this feeling away to someone like you, except I don't dare to give it away
My self regard would not exceed past limits as such, I guarantee this.
As such, this feeling-

 
It takes breath down upon me; the infamy of this leaves me in sombre wake.
I am culpable in every way.
I’m left in a ring of deja vu without the abilities to circumnavigate.



Visualize me now, spinning.



Attempting to shrug off this visceral
sensation leaves the amplification of the reverberation of my heartbeat
resonating
and pulsating
and disquieting
and unsettling
throughout every last multi-cellular
organism in this
destabilized, dismal poor excuse for a body of mine.


Hardly abstemious, I find myself knitting
myself into an elaborately patterned five-fingered-mitten that will ultimately
close each and every one of those fingers around this deserving gullet. In due course a small silver flat-footed heathen will find herself quiescent under layers upon layers of loam, decaying at the crust. An empty shell.



 

I want to do away with this feeling, but surely it would pass unto another, thrice binds the law so should they believe-

And in my soul struck with malice I
understand b’witched they would be, each blight tumbling unto la prochaine
comme sa, subsequently.
& so I don’t

dare, I don’t dare

I do not dare.

February 28th, 2007 12:25 am
fucking drop dead [
]
bewitched.
you. you called yourself my friend? you spoke of me endlessly even before any of this. every word from your mouth fumbling over the next, grasping, gasping, for any sort of leverage, despondency, response. do you feel justified? is your heart swelling, beating with satisfaction? did a part of you warm, with your fingers tucked in folds, nails long yet barely scratching the surface when you spoke my name in disdain?

sheep.
however, i am foul to blame only you when apparently i'm on your lips. hardly the proverbial they, more the plural your. you know who you are. in my obloquy, does your tongue feel satisfied? i love how you read one page of the story and then you shut the book. how do you imagine the story?

i don't imagine you can.
at least not the right one.

halfling.
your concept of companionship is questionable.
i enjoy how you see with one eye.
be still. your amour propre stems from your desire to be as libra; balanced. fair. the scale.
you show no signs of this.

however, regardless of such, i am less likely to bestow ill upon you.
i'll never lower myself to your stance.
and we all know my height, i hardly mean literally, is so intricately small, it is almost mythical.

(yet they wonder why i keep my mouth shut on actual matters. what do you really know about me?
think hard.
oh wait.
the answer is-
absolutely nothing.)
enter your patterns into my absence
that is what you do.
you create your own explanations, assuming that i am a blank canvas.
do what you will, if it gets you by.

- - - -
let us repeat a new tale.
you'll never read this anyhow.
no one reads this anyhow.
and if you do- you'll hardly understand.

February 9th, 2007 4:06 am
describe a new ending. [
]
This preemptive loss of transfiguration has left me cold again today
writhing for a chance at fashioning something
monumental.
My bones grow heavy, and I am stilled.
I’ve become more and more into this lethal misconception.
I’ve never been known to be fatal other than by choice.
I am growing weary of my reflection.
As I wait, as I hesitate, my vocation grows paralysed, and----
the eloquence of an unadulterated ambition pleats,
folding unto itself thrice over, a bind of three.

I fear for this time, and this self loss.
In my own effigy, bedlam like the poignant cerise of a wintry sunset proceeds
lawless; it is disturbed
or so it seems.

- - - - -
The wings of change.
The wings of direction.
The wings of self.
While aimless, the arrogance you observe is your own miscalculation.
While aimless, while wandering, the flirtation with peril you witness is simply your own inaccuracy, intended at destroying each and every feather.
Do you wish to pluck each plume, tear these wings apart, feather by feather?


Yes, I am astray. Forlorn, ashen and diffident, perhaps,
but you don’t know me very well.
Your insistence that my soul haemorrhages polyamorous blood is nevertheless puzzling, and perturbing.

I may be at a loss for myself
I may be dissonant, jarring, cacophonous.
invalid, disposable, discordant, inactive.
I may, I may.
My vacillation may be unsettling my transition through time, falling into place between
dissension and compliance---
I may be in need of a new manifestation---
However I am not at dispute with my loyalties; with my own abstinence and future acceptance of monogamy, your refusal to believe so is unmoving.

- - - - -
Perhaps I’ve grown cold to touch for these reasons combined, me me me you.
My own loss of direction.
Your untimely defeat, your loss of sight of my own image.
For me to lose me, is as expected.
For you to lose me, is as to be rejected- by me, to you, you you.
Your loss of me is incomprehensible and flawed.
I will watch you wash away your regret, as you swallow it back down.
I promise not to be here to catch you.

Lo & behold, Deena is escaping the reaches of the interactive global community.
Please bear with her while she cuts herself off from her neighbouring aquaintainces in efforts to provide herself with an easier,
more comfortable life. How easily she does slip into this lie, it's almost sacrilegious.
Ungodlyungodlyungodlyglslaofas. Spit.
Wait.
You'll see her next, old and grey- still but, with few, but solid friendships.
The rest is unnecessary, she now sees.
It's impossible right now, living like this. The world isn't ready.
The world needs to grow.
How to be faithful in a godless, loveless, unappreciative nation- she wonders still.

Spit.

don't drag my love around. [
]
Doesn't anybody realize, even I don't buy my own disguise?

It’s a sad symphony, really, this need of mine to fill a void that isn’t there. And while I understand that it may be my own fault that it’s hit me right back in my face, it’s disheartening that there are so many that judge on what’s solely on the surface.  As if humans aren’t multifaceted beings, with layers upon layers of convolution sewn together in the seams of our animas. As if we aren’t all multidimensional beings, with wavering hearts and weightless élan vitals. As if, as if, as if.

 

I realize I have a tendency to speak, and when I speak- imagine a downpour of debris, falling from the sky. Imagine concave substance, imagine gravitational collapses of stars forming stellar black holes, imagine plastic. Enough to not take me seriously. Enough to recognize thunderous diffidence. But you wouldn’t. But you can’t. But you don’t.

 

Let this be a lesson to those who comprehend, to those who empathize, analyze, recognize. There is always so much more.

 

Perhaps you’re looking with your eyes, but you’re not really seeing. Your vision is clouded, and I’m constantly speaking in parables with  the façade of Paris, London, New York.

 

I’m just clearing the air.

 

(Try breathing, try breathing. I’m trying. I’m trying.)

September 19th, 2006 4:20 am
Cold-hearted whore. [
]
I had forgotten all about you.
You, you, you.
Until now, until this very moment.
Here and now, you may catch my tongue moving quickly, lies enmeshing themselves into each other, like prismatic light.

(I hold a secret in my hands.
It’s simply confidential, but beloved, you already know.
Can you follow this train of thought?)

I’ll divulge this truth; you have me scarred. I’m so young and loveless.
But still. I’d rather you flesh down every last of your skins then come back to me.
You, you, you, my last everything. My only nothing.

You speak to me still, in well-bred dialogue, as though we are estranged lovers.
Oh wait. We are. In exchange for your dubious concern, I will tease your words into a jar, and store them for another day.
For when I’m over not you, but what there could be.

But at the end of the day, it’s not you, you, you.
I’m only to fault for these discretions.
My improvident decisions are simply, mine, mine, mine.
Mine.

Descend o’ airborne one. I hold, suffering slightly, as we fall in step.

                                                                                                                                                                                               

Have a laugh, while you can. Economic variations collaborating in harmony have sobered my every last scream of youth, at least, for now. (In love.) In the concept of love, I yield. Youth be best for love in ways concupiscence, and solely this, for I go to pieces. There’s no romance in this imitation prose.                   

 

A glass in your hand, you chuckle, child’s play. If only you knew.

 

This is what I do. I will slowly vitiate your liberal psyche, and deliberately. Calculative and acidic expressive styling poisons will pour into your vena, hold fast. Watch close, don’t drink the Kool-Aid, she says, and you do anyways.

 

I test your resistance as I reach for your other hand; is this my closeted indignation crawling out on its hind legs? A molecular reaction— (cement in my heart by pulling you apart, while watching every strand of your dignity unfold, the way an incensed kitten tears apart mother’s finest cashmere, oh d-d-dear.)

                                                                                                                               

 This is nothing short of foreign, I fear. Every prospective cushion for the dry inside has lost all pride, and kneeled. Paramour, you stand, just barely, just barely.

 

How do you watch me still?

 

O’ aficionado, oh how, oh how, oh how. How now do you catch these gray stars and create colour? You leave me stock-still the way only prey know.

 

Yet still, I devise still, the way only the wicked do. Oh, I k now, I will be the end, o’toy. I beg of you, put down the Kool-Aid, while you can. Because I’m beginning to like you, angel. (And that is so so so much worse. This mental preparation for the worst, for the coming, oh, just the start.)

 

I beg, I beg, I beg. But in no way how the way of yours. If you misunderstand, your lips are nearing the glass, oh my. Oh my.

 

Whether you drink now is your choice. I will drop your hand at once, and fall back, for once.

Ascend, o’ airborne one. You tear of weakness, and I will you to gain strength.

Here and now, I fall back.

Sometime's I write a little differently.

April 11th, 2006 10:22 am
I am precious, give me money. [
]

Can you imagine yourself at the claws of society, billowing, wafting, at the edge, yet- held onto so tightly, almost mercilessly?

So there you stand- oh, yes, you. Darling, oh darling. What naivety. You don't need to imagine, as I presume that you, like the most of us, are already there, hands fixed and hair blowing ever so gently. The back of your neck prickling from the brash zephyr hurling itself upwards from below, and you are unprepared, disjointed and lacking sufficient information on your place in civilization. Are you a bystander, watching in your disassociation, or do you stand there, smack dab in the middle, knees and elbows constantly brushing up against the sweat of fellow barbarians?

It's okay.

No one is ever really in, and no one is really ever out. Not you, not me, not him, and certainly not her. You'll learn, eventually, we hope. How long can one brush with death so constantly- you're on a cliff, my dear- and not be aware?






Brush with death, you say. Isn't that a bit dramatic, Deena darling?


           
Oh, but is it? Think about it.


You can't just bring forth one of your ridiculous theories and not fully explain it.



               
It's not to be explained fully.

 

 



And then you're just conversing with yourself. Maybe I'm just writing about nothing or simply proposing ideas that can't be fully backed up.


Most likely.

 

You know, I don’t want to be involved in either. In, or out.

It’s OK. None of us are out, and none of us are fully in, although some of us are more in, and some are more out. Pawns and those who are aware they’re pawns.

 

We don’t need to separate the two, because they are more or less the same.

 

It’s just the sub-categories, really, that start insurrection- actually, from within their own homes.



 

 

LET US DISCUSS TYPE #9. SOCIETY CONFUS PERSONAS.

And then, there are those of us, who are stuck between two societies, two cultures. If anything, they are more attached to their previous one than the current one they are living in, yet they refuse to re-enter this earlier society permanently.


What's your point?

They're wavering back between the precipice and the claws of the social order so violently that they no longer are able to function normally, subsequently, dragging down those around them.

Can't you see? One minute they are falling from the edge, bodies flailing, one arm grasping onto the edge, the other grasping the sleeve of their oldest child, despite the fact that the child, (who is not really a child, in fact, because they are nearing the same age when they themselves were married) would come to less harm if they fended for themselves. Well, in actuality, they would not be in this situation in the first place if their parents hadn't dragged them along with them in the first place. Unwillingly, of course. (When is one ever dragged willingly? What say you, Deena!?)

 

Now imagine this- in efforts to not fall short of society’s limitless expectations, the Indecisive Parents are thrust back into the crowd, in turn, losing grip on their not so young children. The children, at the cusp of their individuality, take this opportunity to gain newfound independence.

 

This is not long-standing, considering they find themselves at their inevitable alienation once again, as they are once again hanging off the edge of a cliff, their sleeves being grasped by their overbearing, time-trapped parents.

 

Once again, we must point out the irony of this situation; the parents are holding onto their children for their dear lives, thinking their children will fall so fast. If their parents keep holding onto them like that, well, they most likely will. Land on their necks while they’re at it. Now, however, if the children were to, say, jump, there is a high chance that they will land on their feet…

 

Where did this we come from, Deena? Nevertheless, can we solve this?

 

No matter. In this well adjusted society, everything will work out, right? (Please sense the sarcasm.)

 

Now, this is just one of the ever-many, ever-failing forms. I bring you only truths, here. I promise.

 

Now tell me if I’m lying.

It's funny; when you seem to have everything to say, you can't say anything.

January 8th, 2006 9:25 pm
You've taught me the lesson of silent lips, keep tight let no one in. [
]
You know on some days
despondency ensues, overwhelming every inch of your body,
anesthetizing every active cell, until you are solidity a nonentity.

Today is one of those days.
I've cut myself off from so many. Or have I? I can't remember, each action falls on top of the next-
dominoes cascading in routine fashion, in fact; this sensation, this
reaction should have been anticipated.

It seems there is only Deena.
Only Deena.

I did this to myself.
(Hating everyone.)


I’ve limited myself to very few, these days- and the ones I’ve set aside, I’ve latched onto, hook, adhesive, rope. (Please don’t let me go.)

I used to be surrounded by friends. Was that the word I’m looking for? Friends?
Companions. Associations. Connections.
That’s what they are now.
I brush back a laughter, at this thought.
Have I driven them away, with my recurrent unremitting need to –
&&&&;;(oh darling, fill in the calm.)
Make quiet, don’t be quick to respond, I need not hear more.
I cannot hear more.
I hear enough of it every day.


I’m lonely. There is no word.
No makeshift remedy for a lost cause.

December 19th, 2005 11:33 pm
Monsters. [
]
Habitual learners gravitate towards post traumatic stress disorder.
They lean towards the decoration of monsters,
asinine and unlikely, constantly digging their heels into the palms
of their credulous quarry;
that is you, that is me.

That is me.

The tendency to follow this particular path never fails to overwhelm-
a suffocation of the sort, enwrapped with aphrodisia and the
last of your touch.

I wonder if I meant for this to happen.
I initiated conversation with you, that once.
Familiarity was never an intention, it was simply a miscalculation
of lexis strung together in efforts to impale the sense of ignominy
birthing itself inside
Sense of liability, obligatory responses ensue.

Habitual learners are consistent in their actions, yet I find you
perplexing, but in no way prodigious,
I blame this on your preconceptions of monsters,
which, in fact, are more distinct in temperament than that of your kind.
You are simply a casualty of my own self-injury, don’t you see?

Let this be a lesson, and a realization.
I am that monster.

In the mean time, you'll find me dwelling over lesbian lovers and lost relationships, boys with charisma and uninspiring revelations- hunched behind a silouette of something that could mean something. Just possibly.

Can you hear me, now that I’m screaming? [

Can you hear me, now that I’m screaming?



When you were speaking today, it was as if you were speaking to me. You were, weren’t you?
* * *



Your eyes grazed mine briefly at first, then you held on, and did not let go. Your vacuous stare seemed to absorb every hidden demon I’d shoved aside.

* * *


But I’m falling. I’m falling. I need you so much closer.

I need you so much closer.
* * *



Red shoes. She wanted red shoes.

Protect him from herself, she said.

* * *


Rain blinded my eyes today. Only it didn't. Would you know? Would you really? The sky was black again today. But really, it really wasn't. And I stopped breathing for five seconds straight and you didn't even notice. You didn't even care.
* * *


Her skirt was too short. She didn't even have the legs for it. Still doesn't.

Not like you, she said to me. You have the legs. She doesn't.

Did you see that? We all saw that. But we didn't close our eyes, we couldn't close our eyes. We couldn't.
* * *



Gross. Gross like backwash.
* * *



You woudn't mind mine, would you?

Sssh, sshh.

* * *


I filled my head with your voice. & now I'm drowning.
* * *



He told me I was beautiful. And so did he. And him. And him too.

I didn't believe it.

But it didn't matter.

It would only matter if you told me.

But you wouldn't tell me, would you.

It's not a question anymore.

* * *




When you were speaking today, it was as if you were speaking to me. You were, weren’t you?

October 17th, 2005 7:39 pm
I could bleed, does it make me the same as her? [

I saw Madison again today. I did not smile. I never intend to.

I'm feeling slightly wounded, won't you kiss it better? She's got the wrong girl...

* * *


Poignant Myrmidon, I laugh at you as you smile and say "Hey," & it's funny because I don't recall us ever being friends. (I always pretended you did not exist when you said hello, was that new for you?) You, a servile sycophant; short skirts make your counterfeit smiles- your semisynthetic self. You're an oxymoron waiting to be deciphered; but perhaps you will never be a break through. Crystalline eyes shut never bothered anyone. Who are you smiling for; it's not for my benefit, is it?

I'm ignoring you; I'm aloof and cantankerous, so who, my dear, are you smiling for? You worry me more than the fact that he has made me blind to else; than the fact he is my only analgesia, my only anesthesia. (My obsession has taken possession of this unholy disillusioned body; my infatuation)

* * *


It's come to this, to days where I'm living for you & nothing more. (I'LL WRITE ABOUT HER BUT I'M REALLY THINKING OF YOU.) But I don't mind. I used to live for nobody and that wasn't living at all. I want so many things, can I have them? Promise me, promise me you'll never let me go?

* * *


I would rather look thanatoid than be her. Never have I been more thankful to be in this skin. Of course, I could just be lying to myself. It would not be far from usual.

* * *


Madison? Who is this Madison, Deena, that you speak of?

Sssh, sssh, she's nobody, she's nobody, I promise you.

Do you swear? Do you swear?

No, no I do not. She could be someday someday. To someone. She probably is now. But not to me.

Does she think she's somebody, Deena?

Yes, yes she does.

She's one of them, isn't she? She's in the majority, the type that have fall into themselves, into their own selfishness and conceit. The type that wants to see something but sees nothing.

I don't know if she even wants to see, my dear.

Does she have eyes?

No, I don't think she does...

* * *


You worry me more than the thought that I may be diseased with nymphomania; (god, just one single word brings forth fireworks) or the fact that someday I may fall into an endless oblivion. No, because even if I do fall, I shall stand, I shall find my way out of my nonrotating-black hole (Haven't I told you before? This girl is a magnetar, constantly in motion, never falling…) but you, you shall forever be in the sky, light years away from any stand of hope. You kissed it all away, and left the ashes for your minions (who of course are not really yours, you just think they are; that's how programmed you are) to dust away.

I can't even wish on you, which makes you even more insignificant and devoid of worth. But, you are in the ever glowing phantasmal sky, alas, isn't that what you wanted? To be high above all of us? But you wouldn't even know that you should be crying, would you? No, you wouldn't.

* * *



I hear her say, "I CAN'T ESCAPE YOUR ENERGY," but oh, oh yes you can...I know I can.

(My veins tell me so, you tell me so. Watch as I rise above.)

Because even with my paradoxical nature, I am above you. I do, I do believe so.

* * *



"You're so conceited," you smirk.

"No, no, not really." I am just a paradox.

I know, I know. [
]
I am a back-stage recipe waiting to be thrown out. MY INGREDIENTS ARE ALL MIXED UP TOGETHER. I don’t rise, I don‘t breathe, I’m tasteless and in dire need of spices. Lift me up and throw me under. You don’t need this right now. Is there anything at all to numb the nothingness? They want me to be fixed, they want to fix me, is that real to you? SOMEONE TELL ME WHAT TO FEEL.

October 5th, 2005 12:38 pm
I used to know her. [
]
I hope you lose sleep over this. (But I know you won't.) I hope it breaks your heart to think of what we used to have. (But I know it can't.) When I said I was pretending to be a poser, I meant I was pretending to be you. I’m just saying. I’m just saying. I don't associate with poison, so let's just go.

Lovers turn into monsters at the loss of all affection. [
]
There is but desolation, in the void.
It’s gnawing away, comfortably, at my core
It’s your fault, dear. You did this.

There’s no poetry in the lacuna of your lacquered words
You manifested this diablo, this aperture

Your eidolon remains like an unwelcomed scar.

September 2nd, 2005 5:34 pm
with you by my side, you're screaming at the top of your lungs, "let it go" [
]
She hugs me goodbye, softly whispering into my hair, "I love you" and I remember what it feels like to be loved. This is friendship nearby. Friends that remember I exist. But I’ve let go and i'm mending broken friendships because I missed you so.

CONTINUATION OF YESTERDAY [
]
I remember drums and angels
I remember velvet skies,
ebony exhaust and sightless endeavors
melodious sounds as you tripped;
your attempts to bend me
normally, darling-
I am malleable like brick
yet, to you I succumb
do you smell, sweet Las Vegas? I do
unlimited paradoxes desecrated your sanguinity

And your voice was syrupy sweet
I’d say
I’d say
let me take a drink;
I’d wait for satisfaction
Did you hear my veins cursing?
Mercury wailing demons awash?

My bones are saturated
soon to be carcass
memories of you are etching themselves
into every second fragment, clutching and
creeping; so stealth
they are sprites in their skins
indistinct with cactus shadows

And now; oh favorite, oh
conquer: ember is luminosity in this night
mirth, and mirth is my messiah
the saccharine harmony tickles my soul
captivating my insides with its charisma


Never again shall one borne my demon
By one, I scream, you-
the irony-
you are the nymph to my flute
puck, puck, you hear
sever me a piece off of your skylight fantasy
your reveries bewilder
and fascinate
I hate you, I love you
Dancers that you are
dancers that pelt me with pirouettes


Now, it is my turn to conspire
imitation is a road to success
(was it not once you that said,
you will never live if you do not learn)
I must be cursing because-
you are my Sea King, at siege I befall
there she goes
she soars

Did I make sense darling? No, I did not.
But it doesn’t matter now, does it?

When you walked out that door
someone left a hole in my heart
I think it was you

August 28th, 2005 1:49 pm
GIRLS WITH GUNS [
]
These hands of mine, those that I see
you set them before me and command I use them

Girls with guns
Improvise with me
I’d tell you we’re not armed for battle
But that wouldn’t make any sense,
considering this .45 is pointed at your head

These hands of mine, those that I see
you set them before me and commanded I use them

(and the fair maiden who is truly insane
usurps the crown; destined for destruction)

Traumatized yet inseparable
are Sin and Logic
bashing against the doors
in the back of my subconscious

Girls with guns
Improvise with me
I’d tell you we’re not armed for battle
But that wouldn’t make any sense,
considering this .45 is pointed at your head

Ready, aim, fire.

August 28th, 2005 1:48 pm
PREDETERMINED CAMARADERIE [
]
I was there when you, with your paper maché hands, fell back, choking on bottled antagonism. I could feel you breathing as I attempted to recover pieces of your clay heart, which lay disheveled before me.

Here sets in premonitions of companionship. (Oh, saying reverie would lie.)

I will not lie; I would hungrily devour every last drop of blood, licking gently on abrasions and unkempt stitches in hopes to become one.

(These simulated vampire desires, of course, would simply be a précis of the near future, darling, as you would have given back way to my seduction.)

Then, as I would return the pieces to you, in hopes that this alliance would remain, you would leave a little bit of yourself behind, so that one day, neatly packaged in a cardboard star shaped box, wrapped in silver and aphrodisiacs, I would return it to you.

TRANSGRESSION. [
]
Adagio. Adagio. She likes to whisper the word, letting the gh sound seep through the cracks in her teeth. But she never cried.

She often dreamt of a world where everyone had her IDEALS. Selfishness was a bad dream.

Sometimes she would press her hips against his and wait for-

SIN. To her, you are a sin.
But oh, she doesn’t believe in sin.
And you, you just make her cry-
Even though

She doesn’t
Cry.

August 28th, 2005 1:46 pm
EPIPHANY [
]
I CAN’T STAND YOU. YOU AND YOUR BOYISH CHARM.
I can’t stand you or your friends.

I JUST WON’T SEE YOU.
You’ll be in front of me
but I just won’t see you
LESS THAN A SHADOW
minus your scream.

August 28th, 2005 1:46 pm
I WATCHED YOUR BRILLIANCE FADE [
]
you + me. gone.

you were my BEST FRIEND
then, with one quick motion
you put me
in the cliché of
all categories by
slowly
oh so slowly
injecting poison
into
my veins
FILLING ME
KILLING ME
oh, how
you
murder


this was supposed to be RIGHT.
THIS. THIS. THIS. US.
but, oh,
we’re
dead.

August 18th, 2005 11:35 pm
THIS PLACE FEELS SO UNFAMILIAR. [
]
I remember when the world was at my feet;
I used to fall, ever so gracelessly in its copious arms-
heart sporadic, conviction leaping.

I remember when there was limbo;
I’d entered so fervently
eyes blazing and
heart breaking.

That was a time ago.

Purgatory and paradise
are safely tucked behind my ear,
a dry insurance policy.

Line me up, I’m waiting for
the middle.
Automatic prolonged ataxia
for the sane, Spartans and ex-lovers
I’ll meet you there.

August 8th, 2005 12:17 pm
Blood Lust [
]
I see you and you want to compensate
This is what you are telling me but
Every time I see you all I see is

Blood on your hands
Blood on your hands
Quick shot, another life gone
You say they have no souls
They cannot think
Well neither do you
Neither can you

Black light, broken vision
Focus on a girl quieted, staring at her feet
Only do the walls see, they say
The situation speaks for itself
Blood, blood is all she sees
Your hands, they are tainted with blood

This tragedy is your rendering of beauty
I call it avaricious, your selfish murder
You have no meaning to me yet I kill you not
Civilization approves, it must be okay then
I’m watching from above eye level and
Soon this planet shall be barren
All this because of your
dehydrated bloodthirsty hands

July 13th, 2005 12:51 am

I've turned a corner, boy, my life is ecstasy [
]
[ mood | cold ]

It's funny how things can fall apart right before your eyes, and you never even noticed. Or maybe, you didn't want to.

And he can turn into someone you don't know. Which hurts you so bad you can't breathe.

Your everything just falls into the dark abyss of this world; or perhaps, he never existed.

Maybe he was always just a liar.

IS THERE ANYTHING, ANYTHING AT ALL TO NUMB THE NOTHINGNESS? [
]
[ mood | alone ]
[ music | Sense Field- Save Yourself ]

60 feet under the ground, decaying from time’s stranglehold on life, there I am not. 60 feet under the ground, away from all that is unholy, just a body & the sand & dirt. 60 feet under the ground, soul collecting dust under the waterwashed & endless sky. 60 feet under the ground, thoughtless as night’s turning, just smooth, oh, I wish, I do.

ALL MY ARMOUR FALLING DOWN. [
]
[ mood | rejuvenated ]
[ music | Hell Is For Heroes- Retreat ]

I have brushed fingers with Death and her sisters,
But still, I do not feel less like a discarded doll
I tiptoed behind her, she was not aware we met
But I am ever reminded of her presence
Her shadow trails just beyond my gaze each morn
Do you not recall, how our ghosts wrestle tongues weekly?
How they mingle oh-so-sweetly.

I woke up to an empty bed again
Hazel-witch and strawberry-coated whisperings
were flowed before these tired eyes
Something’s missing, something’s missing.
Unfulfilled promises were as a breath of air
That was them, yours, tickling the back of this throat
Forget that frigid, hollow, desolate sensation rushing before
my eyes, like Niagara at it’s peak after endless rain
Forget the before-wake phenomenon you pressed
between my ravenous lips, oh, it was she
it was you,
who seduced
me into dreaming these lies
If I dare close my eyes,
I will wander into unchartered territory
But then again, she is renting out my heart
And controlling every dreaming notion

I wish I knew, I wish I could explain

I wish I understood movement
and why friction even goes so far
to invade my mind, but alas,
I do not know.

I am repulsively mortal,
these eyes
do not
see thoughts,
nor do these
wings
fly.

AND YOU DON’T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND. I am drowning, I am losing. [

[ mood | defunct ]
[ music | Jersey- Saturday Night ]



I used to wake up at 3:00 a.m. from my tossing and turn to the familiar hum of the computer. I would sneak on and breathe inside myself, in hopes that no one would hear me, so I could talk to you.
Now-
Now I just wake up.

STRAW SPUN FROM GOLD, SHE CRAVES A TORTURED SOUL. [
]
[ mood | departed ]
[ music | Dead Poetic- Burgandy ]

Aphrodite, how you infect me; every second is an incarnadine decaying carousal ride. Hypnos; I enjoyed entangling your heart and luring you from Nyx…How your iniquitous tongue tangoed with mine last night, licking my eyes impiously whenever the opportunity was available…. You wished a long dreamless slumber upon me….

But I, lover of reveries, took this into my own hands, for I lack fidelity for those who disrespect. I fear I use your son, Morpheus; he wears my lust for hallucinations like a weathered 1950’s suit, but there is no guilt.

He creeps in after you have left each night and lays kisses upon my weakness; my neck. He is my only sin. The gods dare not leave me, meddlesome more than I, they are. They inflict upon me every preying god known of, then, the anti-cupid, rush, vapid night, gone. They set this heart on hiatus for fear of manipulation, my body on fire, rewind time, cosmic domino effect.

There’s nothing inside this salacious, tainted body but Greek mythology and earth-shattering anecdotes of heartaches and breaks. This girl is a magnetar, eternally spinning out of control. Mordant, magnetic, and not your typical neutron star…

YOU’RE JUST A SONG AND EVERYBODY KNOWS THE WORDS. [
]
[ mood | lifeless ]
[ music | Catch 22- 1234 ]

Your words sting me more than this cut inside my mouth; the worst kind. Whispers behind me, hush, hush, I am in thought. Break it up, break it fuckin’ up, they tell me, rip it apart, smash it down. Let his heart crumble and perish, like he has done so to yours.

You are in shambles, my love, have you let him get to you? You always promised that you would be different; you would never answer Love right away when she knocked on your door.

Let her wait, you said, let her ring your doorbell patiently, and hope you will answer. Only let her in if she bears exotic dark chocolates- no more than the best kind-, you told me, Dee, only let her in if it is pulchritudinous like the one from my daydreams. It is too late, I tell you, for you are but a backseat driver.

This highway is long, but I will keep on driving, I do not need your advice. I have gotten this far without you; I’ve been low on gas, the seats are uncomfortable, and I do not believe I have a bumper.

But I am going, I am going, so hush, hush, you are not pain. Your words, they sting, but hush, I don’t care. This cut will heal as will the lesions from your mouth, but this is not over yet. It doesn’t matter, hush, hush, I am going, I am going.

DANCE LIKE WE ARE MAKING LOVE, MAKE LOVE LIKE WE ARE DANCING. [
]
[ mood | deceased ]
[ music | The Planet Smashers- No Self Control ]

You used to ease through my mind like pornography, grabbing hold of every moral thought and fucking them, slowly and painlessly. You moved like music, your skin, my skin, perfection.

It was early morning sex, afternoon sex, after-supper sex, midnight sex; if my body was not promiscuous, my mind sure as hell was. You were my drug, my remedy, every moment denied my castle in the sky was withdrawal….

And then, I met you. I was not aware of your actual bona fide existence, but I did not deny you for a second. You, surreal, I, tangible.

I lied to myself, I persuaded myself into believing that I did not know you, but I knew you, for you- you could not be forgotten. Your words caressed my thoughts, black and white poetry mixed with late night cappuccinos.

Skeleton, that’s what you were. I learned your core, though you had no face. I knew every bone in your body, had made love to your soul; yet I had never stood before you physically.

But I knew it was you. I could recognise you from miles away, if even you were caped, masked and hooded. Your heartbeat is one with mine, does that make any sense to you?

These eyes have never seen a today; they are my lungs. They see darkness eternally, and until they are able to respire they shall keep living in tomorrow.

Overcast Laughter [
]
[ mood | bleh ]
[ music | No Doubt- Different People ]

The blood on your hands should still be in your veins
Slice yourself up on quiet Saturday mornings when
the night is still parting and you,
you are not quite in a conscious state of mind
Red under your fingernails, is this normal?
Your sobriquet makes you feel strong but
I know you’re feeling like there is an aperture
in your solar everything
Astrophysical senses
Losing control

I want to hold you and let you know I’m here
(Baby, I’ve been there before)
But I can’t because then the secret’s out, you’ll know.
You’ve tried camouflaging into the scenery
But I’ve seen past your masquerade
I know, one comment
And you’ll shut me out
I’ve seen your
overcast laughter

All I can do is send you signals, wordlessly
And stay by your side, like a ghost
You will not see me, this invisible girl
I will always be right behind you
Just in case
you fall.
