My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People with a soul, a conscience, a heart, and a mind.
People with a sense of humor!
Oh, and meeting e.e. cummings would have been awesome too.
since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;
wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world
my blood approves,
and kisses are a far better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
--the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids'; flutter which says
we are for eachother: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph
And death i think is no parenthesis
-e.e. cummings

The shape of your hand on my heart.

Each one of my footsteps lately has made the landscape shift a bit, and while normally this would be a sign of self-satisfaction, I'm finding that I'm becoming nothing more than a worrywort all over a...

First Day of My Life

This is the first day of my life Swear I was born right in the doorway I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed They're spreading blankets on the beach Yours is the first face that I saw I ...

I won’t tell them your name.

I want to see how long it'd take me to die from waiting on you to change.My guess? Instantly. It will never happen.I need a glimpse of my life from before you, from before I lost myself.

Emo vaginas.

I don't know what the fuck my problem is.What a way to start a blog, eh? But truthfully, I don't know what's wrong with me. As of late I've been really touchy and sort of emotional. I keep having thes...

"I know that you will never love me..." Part Two

a dream alone-I tried to wake you but you wouldn't budge.I tell myself to wander but the walk home is a bit too much for me.Don't let all of these feelings go to waste.I am your worst best friend- wil...

I used to cover this song at my shows.

"Sea Anemone" by Jets to BrazilThe curtain's a sea anemone in the way it sways to the slow breeze.I lie spread out on the floor, looking at these things.Most of them are yours. And it's so nice, sitt...
