About Me

At bus stops and in bars, we meet, and we believe for those few precious moments that everything promised is possible. What we fail to understand, what we refuse to grasp, out of either stubbornness or just plain ignorance, is that it’s those moments, those simple connections, good or bad, that are our rewards, and not some fairy tale future we have conjured up out of loneliness.Lets burn the scripts, the stages, the perfect postcard sunsets. Lets destroy alibis. If only just for those moments lets discover every breath as it’s own. Lets allow our selves the apple (without the guilt of God).Fuck the safety nets, lets free fall into our selves. Lets explore. Let’s be woken by the night.I will only ever surrender by declaring war on everything. a
