I realized I was just barely surviving
on cloud 3

so I asked for a sign

and it began to rain on me

and it just rains

and rains

and rains

on me

cloud 3 doesn’t really float

it just merely coasts

doing only

exactly what it takes

to stay

somewhere between cloud 9 and

a cold hard place

if it weren’t for you I’d have both feet

planted firmly on the ground

You said I was a series of extremes
So me being me, naturally I disagreed

But the longer I sat and pondered what you said

I was reminded of my times with you

And I began to believe it too

When I’m alright, I’m ecstatic

And when I’m sad the world comes to a screeching halt

You said I couldn’t imagine life without drama

Well I couldn’t imagine life without ( Read more... )

I took a break from my studies... and while doing laundry these words popped in my head like the lyrics to a country song you could only hear played down at some place called "alligator saloon" during happy hour. lol.  I thought they were post-worthy though... just another part of leaping over the hurdles of confusion my life puts in front of me. I ( Read more... )

A labyrinth with no center

You refuse to reveal your heart

And with no dreams to chase

I am left standing at the start

Things aren’t always what they seem

This love is nothing like a dream

Endless walls of cold brown bricks

You refuse to compromise

I choose to keep searching

Wondering if my decision is wise

I stray away from the footprints of those that ( Read more... )

So my days have been busy... crazy like... beyond crazy.  I haven't had much time to write.  There are so many changes taking place in my life that I have no control over...

I don't have long, but I just gotta get this out...

I’m tryin to take several steps back without walking away…

But it’s hard to walk a line that I can’t see

I can’t see myself ( Read more... )

I sat down with a pen and paper...
Tried to write some beautiful words

Some words that would make people think how beautiful my words are

But nothing beautiful would come forth...

Only words filled with hurt and sorrow

Words meant to make someone feel the hurt you feel

You feel me?

You felt me... at one time

It was all a beautiful dream...

My beautiful ( Read more... )

I'm only mediorce
At extraordinary things, that is

See I ain't best at nuthin'

Can't draw or paint real pretty

Never was any good at math

And even though I got slave feet

Running track just wasn't for me

I can't build houses or boats

I'm a small girl, but not small enough to model,

Just small enough not to be able to do anything too physical

As someone once ( Read more... )
