Kiss the flame
Let's run with the hunted, the untamed
Kiss the flame
Embrace the faceless, the unnamed

Is it strange that the sound of my mother's noisy sleep inspires so much thought? Maybe. But it's the real deal. If I'm being perfectly honest, I've been full of thoughts today. They've been tangling, reproducing, and spilling out from my brain for ( Read more... )

So few come and all go.

There is so much going on . I feel like I'm stuck in a snow globe. The world is staring in on me, waiting for something majestic to spring forth, as if I'm capable. It gives me a shake, poking and prodding me until I do its' little dance. But I don't want to dance. I want to set up fort in the Redwoods with piles of books ( Read more... )

And the road finally gave me back,
But I don't think I'll unpack,
'Cause I'm not sure if I live here anymore.

I'm bordering poverty, with $70 dollars to my name. I have yet to complete a gigantic Philosophy assignment that was due yesterday. I am almost sure that I ( Read more... )

Stop reading the weather charts
Stop counting the playing cards
There's no system--
There's no guarantee
That the love you feel you carry inside
Can be passed.

You know you're in trouble when you've lost the will to feel. Staring into the eyes of a drug addict is the most sobering experience there is. Ironic, really. One moment they are the beautiful, ( Read more... )

I haven't written anything for a while. I feel inspired to write every day, but I seem to be fresh out of words.

If thou be cast into the deep; if the billowing surge conspire against thee; if fierce winds become thine enemy; if the heavens gather blackness and all the elements combine to hedge up the way; and above all, if the very jaws of hell ( Read more... )

Sometimes I feel as if my entire body is a blister. Like my soul is an open wound, much more susceptible to pain and happiness than the average person. My heart is a deep cut capable of profound healing and utter breaking. I don't know how I got this way. I don't know if I was born a vulnerable mess or if my world has brought me to this place, with ( Read more... )

The headlights on the highway
Cannot help me understand
Whatever it is you need
I pray I am.

This week/weekend has been quite a whirlwind.

Today, I was shuffling through this weeks admissions and discharges at work to catch up on some things. I saw that someone new was in Miss Ardis Hunter's room. I thought maybe her family finally came around and took ( Read more... )

In the cold, you look so fierce
But I'm warm enough
Because the tension's like a fire
