....and your untouchable face...
At what age does ones life cease to be reminiscent of an ani difranco song?
When will it stop being necessary to write about things like this on a freaking internet journal?
And when will I ever learn? Or rather, why do I insist on dating the same guy, with the same bullshit issues over and over and over again and be surprised when I am hurt in the exact same way.
Although this one really takes the cake, thus far. There should be some sort of prize. Perhaps a cake, that he could abscond with.
I apologize for being obtuse on purpose. Its not my fault. I am sad. And it is a Saturday afternoon. and I have nothing to do and no one to do it with.
(in this city
self-preservation
is a full time occupation
I'm determined
to survive on this shore
you know I don't
avert my eyes anymore
in a man's world
I am a woman by birth
and after nineteen times around I have found
they will stop at nothing once they know what you are worth
talk to me now
I played the powerless
in too many dark scenes
and I was blessed with a birth and a death
and I guess I just want some say in between
don't you understand
in the day to day
and the face to face
I have to act
just as strong as I can
just to preserve a place
where I can be who I am
so if you still know how
talk to me now)
