| happppppinees::::: reflect,reflect, disconnect. all is assumed to be okay, then, the empathetic ear seeks out someone else to save. well hello dear, hear i am, still waiting, still wondering and i thought, perhaps i was mistaken, you were around for the long haul.the haul from here to the keys of florida stumbing around the keyholes of the deep waters clear water, where the sharks maul. no one is able to see me, and i complain, too much rouge, too many booz. but where the fuck were you. you you you. i dont even know who you are. thats what i thought, look at my face, pearly teeth, smiling, and a casual hello, all is fine, yea, everything is fucking great, and i watch my breath as the words how are you bellow off the walls and into your left slightly ajarred jaw.:::::pause:please dont forgive me today seems all this love turns 20 shades of belligerent lampshadehate. then i remember its me not you, here i am, i let everyone tread upon the oceans of my blue.
bullshit. i had this thought toys are for tots, go play, go play.

| <b>here we are, backwards hips, forward faces. our friends have all gone home for the night, its you and me, stuck on the tip of some foreign film's opening scene; man and woman stare through tree trunk eyelashes while the ending has already been revealed, acknowledged, two thumbs down. i hate simple movies, simple endings, or when they are completely contrary to the novel , the novel some crusty old man devoted his life to writing and now, now the public pumps enjoyment through their yellow pop corned teeth sitting in the movie theator, too lazy to open the book, now, now they dont even know the truth. now i remember where i was going with all of this. now i sit with backwards hips and a forward face, you made me watch that movie, duration 3 and half hours, i bet knowing i would always cower, lifts your ego and emphasizes your power. now my body's satin black, midnight blue, entwinded with fine inbroadery that tells a tale of how i gained the strength to leave. you, you, a forward face but severed tongue, sometimes i watch it flailing below the heart of your eldest son. i couldnt find my feet all the time i was trodding along, and now ive gained my eyes back i see where the print of my feats belong. away from you away from you, ill climb wood laced stone towers and find whats true, away from you away from you, perhaps in the magnifenct slepdor of a life lived in storybook candor. away from you, away from you, your cement laminated heart is too burdensome for anyone else to hold. away from you, away from you, and all the lies you told.</b>

| Uncomfortable and left behind. The saliva shines a silver as we make love. As I lose myself in pretending.
Pulse catches in continuous beating. (Sore hands shake and bare feet feel frozen.)
The beauty in the way the blue screen captures everything. The way it keeps on with falling out of windows and into walls.
Triangles growing out your wrists to keep you safe. I hope they keep you safe.
These nightmares coming to life, the stains that never wash out. (The feeling of your body with hers and the sound of you sighing and sharing our moments without me.) Every night I dreamt through your every encounter. And that morning I never fell asleep. I was up awake with a sore mouth from kissing myself, giving up days to get rid of loneliness. Cold wind and wet rain are the only ones keeping touch. You knew better than anyone that I fall harder than anyone.
and that is all that needs to be said.

| watch others in their happiness
and fail to keep promises to myself.
watch others living out their dreams
watching my dreams fall into a pickled pool of pity.
watch others willing and able to go
standing still in wet cement, in a stagnating stationary stance.
watch other people try to cushion my blows and pull me from the debris of my own wreckage
feeling more and more alone
no one is to blame
but me.
i make decisions
and then
i have to deal witht the weight
of those cumbersome repercussions.
i fuck myself over
more than anyone else
is ever capable of.

| so in ten minutes it was over
the way we started was the way we ended.
i didnt know you then, i dont now.
you took advantage of my innocence
and now you try to take advantage of
my insecurities.
you were the one who lent
such a great hand in
turning my innocence to insecurity.
now you watch me walk away,
now you watch my back to you
now you will know
how it feels
to love and lose.
my eyes are puffy from crying so much. i just cant stop.
i told you i didnt want to live like this anymore and you agreed. you didnt even object to everything i said you didnt even struggle to keep me here with you.
i know in days, weeks, months or whatever you will break. you will come back to me as you always do. what you dont understand right now is, the difference between then and now is ive grown strong and never again will you dictate my life.
the days ahead of me are trying but unlike you i bend, you break, you break.
