So, I found this thing that will keep me busy while here in Chicago. Some people call it doing something with your life. I will call it a job ( Read more... )

Writing here, in this journal, is the closest to home that I can come right now. This is the closest to normal as I can be. Everything I do here is in a different setting, a different time, and even my regular rituals have changed to fit where I am. I can't drive the same, walk the same, sleep the same, because I have to adapt. There is something ( Read more... )

Three to Count
By Tyler "Q"

Three
Went to Chicago
Two
Homes we have
One
Group whom our heart belongs
Three
Times before going
Two
We cry to know we're leaving
One
All the memories we have
Equal
One
Zero
Times I will forget you friend

Forgotten Gardener
By Tyler "Q"

The coming of summer brought one young lover to my door
As he enters I ask him of what love
What love has brought you this far
A care thrown to the wind
A forgotten seed left in unfertile ground
Picked out to be grown in my garden
He states with childish grace
I have no garden in which to plant says I
If you would just step ( Read more... )

Is There a Dawn?
By Tyler "Q"

I am a silouhette
Cascading light blue
Grey forms overhead
As light dies at my back
I meld into the sky
Suddenly all is black or dark blue
Where did the sun go
Will she come back at the seasons change?
In six months maybe we will know
Whispers comforting thoughts
Look up pleading
And rain's shower starts
Do I deserve ( Read more... )

The New Moon
By Tyler "Q"

What if the night sky isn't there at all
If its just a man with a needle trying to sow up the world
The moon a button that slowly comes undone
And we'll have sex for fun
There is no love on that horizon just drowning under the laughing face
As the moon shines down on you

I've been looking to the sky for some sort of sign
I don't ( Read more... )

Overwhelming
By Tyler “Q”

When there is nothing left here for me
Where will I go?
When I sit back and think about my life
Where will my rocking chair be?
When I wish I did something else
Will it be for the decision I’m about to make?
I ask about the plunge I’m about to take
See the confusion and fear contorting my face
Overwhelm me

Water crash over and ( Read more... )
