memories

it was yesterday in my mind
i liked you
i thought you liked me
and the chase began

i've jumped hurdles
made some stops along the way
but you've always been just
out of reach

and now i find out
you feel the same way i do
i hope the finish line
hasn't been taken away

sometimes i hate you
because i never said how i felt
and i just assumed
you knew

and maybe you did know
but i never put it out there
i still haven't
but maybe i'll do that soon

the fear is that it will ruin
everything
but this can't go down
any further

this is my chance
to say what's been in my heart

isn't it amazing when an eternity
lasts a heartbeat?

can you believe she said that?

why am i destined to deal with this
for the rest of her?


did you think
that maybe
if you let her go on like this
it's just going to get worse

by ignoring the problem
you're supporting the problem

she won't listen to me
but i'm not in a position to say anything

get serious

welcome

he's ok

a nice boy
a good heart

but maybe too desperate to please.

this bothers me.

i think i'd rather be angry at someone for being themselves
than for being something i want them to be

being fake
for companion's sake

only leads to disharmony
and distrust

i don't know what you're going to do
behind my back
but i know when i see you again
you'll greet me as you always do.

i can read the truth behind your teeth


the burden

i see the end and it saddens me

this is something that shouldn't have happened

i could have stopped it
i SHOULD have stopped it
but i let myself get in the way

next time, i need to leave myself
and let the body do what the mind
is afraid of

i wouldn't think of the consequences
but as of now
i can't stop thinking about what could have been

i'm fine the way i am

i would never want to be a god.

it must be difficult being omnipresent
and omniscient
when not everyone cares about you.

understanding

it takes a long time
to grow
to know
to show

we all strive to understand ourselves

that winding road is unavoidable

but the harder road to travel
is the one in which
you know i know

when someone says my name
and the first thing you think is

he can do it
he doesn't need us anymore

but he still wants us

he loves us

he gives us all his love

7.2 on the heartbreak scale

These days

my life is steady
no movement
no change

except for those brief

"oh hello"'s.

which sets me off

i'm a king
i'm a lion

live like a lion
love like a lion

and then
it's all over

back to school
for this boy with a heart-sponge.

what?

when all the words come out
they fail me

struggling
leads to clarity

pass the water

happy new year

it's been sixteen days
since i said i would change

but what of it
how can a person change so much so soon

actions speak louder than dreams


i still believe that i can become that person that
I
dreamt of
in front of friends and acquaintances

no, a heart to change the world
will come eventually
but of course i'd rather
sooner than

later

my body may not feel it
but my mind knows it

until then

keep dreaming for future days
that have passed many times before

make the cold go away

is it help

i took my time in addressing the situation

i inhaled
held my breath
for a
long


time.

it's not that i'm confused
it's that

i don't know exactly how you feel
and how can i help you
if you won't help yourself

the only way to step forward is to step back

okcupid

it was a cold evening

when i became
the man

i am today

oh?

love is a complicated man.

he is misused, abused

not used.

when will love be honest with himself

and the people he affects every day?

decency

there are no bad words.

but i could never bring myself to say ______.

i would never be taken seriously again.

rambling

as i sit here
my heart grows heavy.

it is harder for me to stand
to think
to write
to do
anything

i don't really know what to think
should i even bother
that thought doesn't even cross my mind anymore

so things haven't always gone the way i'd like them to.
but is that so bad?
things sure would be boring if everything happened the way i wanted them to.
do i always enjoy the challenge? of course not
but when things do go my way
i can appreciate it
so
much
more...

bang it out

ok

i've moved on
i feel better

sometimes i don't do what i should
and i blame it on everyone else

but i'm better than that
or at least i try to be
anger is just a five letter word

i have nothing and everything

a man walks into a room
sees a chair
a couch
a door

"sit down" he hears
his love
his friend

a man walks out of a room
he is alone
tired
cold
hungry
but happy
