"I can't have what I want,
So I don't want anything.."

Love I will wait for you
though I am scared you do not come
giving you up leaves no future to live for

beat
every heartbeat is an eternity alone
time turns and still
you don't think of me
beat
how long can this last?
my heart i give
in trust to you
because some things cannot
be broken more
and ask you to act as though it were whole
lover, i melt
into these arms that are not yours
protect me
from what i want because
it does not want me

im trying to make you understand

that the lack of passion you feel,

is because i am trying to forbid myself from loving you
*
My hands are tied
My body bruised
She's got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose
.
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give...
And you give...
And you give yourself away
.
I can't live with or without you
I can't live with or without you
I can't live...
I can't live with or without you

we try to live out our yesterdays
when they were better than our todays

I am not breathing
In airless pits I squirm
My dreams haunt me to teach me
Lessons which I just cannot learn


Wake up to find I'm falling
Fall to sleep to find I'm not
All the time I'm crawling
Away so I don't rot

What's the good of honesty when honesty says I love you and I can't be without you?

Yes, still. I'm so sick of pretending it's not there.
well I'm not writing because I'm still not feeling very much. I have had a brief lapse from dry eyes and I am grateful. But it seems we are back, with no spell to break the routine.

Scared to sit with myself, in the bath. Eating alive these sad songs, and watching the thoughts return to my head. Trying to ignore everything that I remember, and not feel the ever-threatening, godforsaken guilt.
Let the drink drive my mind
i don't care for what's inside
my body for this
and hate through your lips
I remember you.
Put my top on cause I dont feel safe topless
Not tonight

When wanting never got me anything anymore, nor wishing
And my finger is still too sore to type
Maybe its a sign
Maybe it's a design on my life
When I don't see you: sleep for too long but still
Not even in my dreams

And the appetite bites back
Not sad, because sadness doesnt eat
Not scared because fear keeps my stomach cater-bugs moving
or gives them wings
Just empty, like anything that ever was empty
Strike this bowl, it will ring

She couldn't remember the words to the songs she wanted to sing
---
Which way shall I fly, Infinite wrath, and infinite despair? Which way I fly is hell; myself am hell; And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep, Still threatening to devour me, opens wide, To which the hell I suffer seems a heaven.

"Cause if you care for someone enough, their happiness is worth your pain"

Words of an amazing friend yet again
You're famous in my eyes!

Dreams and desires

She said to me, said..
"You need to follow your heart, your passion. You've been doing whats 'right' for too long, now you need to do what you love"
.
Journal, she said - start writing. Write about your hopes, your dreams, your desires.
.
As though writing could sort it all out..
.
My hopes? My desires? They've always been pretty simple. Do you want to know what I see when I look into my future?
.
Let me paint you a picture.
*
A big, square English house, on a large plot - at least an acre! Beautiful garden, hundreds of flowers... ponds... green, green grass... hedges... bushes... courtyards... wise, old trees. Maybe leading onto woods at the bottom, or an orchard, a river.. Just luscious, green, serene, vast. With a view till the sunset. I want to hear the birds, see the birds... Taste the wind, smell the freshness.
*
And my house nestled in the middle of all of this, with dogs bounding around -tails wagging, tongues dripping. And happy, smiling kids running and tumbling in the grass, a house full of people - maybe my parents... a full kitchen: always something on the stove or in the oven! Fresh muffins, scones... biscuits, cakes... and a breakfast table outside under a tree to drink tea and watch the children play. Maybe a greenhouse, with vegetables and herbs!
*
But inside, and most appealing of all - a library, with a fireplace, a rug, hundreds of books on shelves with a sliding ladder, and an armchair, with my favourite man in the whole world seated in it. My heart leaps just to see him, and when his eyes raise to meet mine, his smile melts me. And he'll hold me like he's never going to let go - and I know he won't. Maybe take his hand and walk through the French doors, into the cool evening air... it doesn't matter where we go, and we don't need to say a word, just as long as we're together.
*
I can see it all so vividly, my house full of love. It's all I've ever wanted, and it will be exactly what I have. Seems all this other stuff is just a build-up.
.
I just have to make sure my actions today allow for my dreams to come true tomorrow.

If this wasn't what I meant
- A wall
No space for my hole
- At all
Legs too weak to climb over

If clouds fall on
- My head
And slipping on rain, crawl
- Onto the carpet
In your hall
Hit my head on that damn wall

Stumble
Drool
Timber
Ashes
Smoke
Cinders

Please don't pretend it's all I ever need rake this soil plant this seed we don't get what we want we get what we need they take it all away and we wait long nights for break of day with no sleep no fucking sleep but god help me i still can't weep.

"He says everything about you is sexy - your smile and all... and he's asking how I'm not attracted to you. So I said I am attracted to you, but I try not to look at you that way, 'cause I have a girlfriend. And if I looked at you that way it'd make me want you."

The same drama over again
And I, play different roles
I'm just waiting for this one to play out

Tuesday, February 12, 2008

Of lies and deceit
He doesn't love you
You're just a replacement
Just another face to
Fill the hole she doesn't
It's pretend

Why walk when you can run?
Why keep quiet when you can talk?

And why have a casual relationship...when you can fall in love?
