Oblivio.

We all find oblivion at some point. At the bottom of a bottle. At the end of a long night out with friends, when the happiness is all gone and everyone has gone home. When we find ourselves alone in our room while summer drags on and on and we find that we have already [...]

Hope Vs. Everything Else

Dear World, You are slowly killing me. Between talks of wars in countries far away, the economy going into a recession, gas prices rising, gang wars starting in the country, divorce rates going up, children being abandoned, polar ice caps melting and the salmon are going extinct… I cant keep up. I must be too [...]

I sometimes wonder what it would be like to be blind. Not because I don’t want to see the world around me, but because I would notice other things with so much more clarity: smells, sounds, things I touch… Being blind would open up a different world and I think going blind after being able [...]

In a destiny far far away…

I’m watching JtBM put together a book. Not design one on a computer or staple pages together. I mean really, honestly, and with his bare hands build a book. I watched him cut the paper for the end pages, using an X-acto knife to slice thick cardboard-esque sheets for the covers and then slowly glue [...]

Do you believe in God?

Not a memory.

The weather man says it’s gonna rain tonight…. The kind of storm where the basement floods and you lose the lights…. Should have thought of that before…. ‘Cause I’m not your blue sky anymore…. No matter what I did, or who I was. It was never enough. Even when I broke my skin and lost [...]

Erwachen.

Awake. Not because I’m ready to be, but because sleep faded and I tossed and turned and awoke into the same nightmare I was just dreaming about. I have two eyes, two feet, and two hands. My heart was alone, but there was another out there willing to be it’s mate. And I’m not the [...]

I should always be asleep when my brain wants to write. It’s always too late, the night long since falling. I always feel like everyone else in my world is asleep and yet I’m not. Sleep is like hope for me, it comes so rarely, like a perfect kiss or the right words. Twenty-two years [...]

With this soultell smile I’ll blow a kiss to you.

Love is magic. It’s the song that leaves you breathless. It’s the perfect note that once you hear it hits you right at your core. It lasts replaying over and over again in your head. It makes you dance. It makes you cry. It hits every nerve in your entire body like an electric current. [...]
