i take it all back...
I miss everything.
I miss waking up not crying.
mainly I just miss you.
I just don't understand
I wish my life was a romantic comedy. I wish my life was sparkly and special but I suppose that's asking too much you.
Dear life,
I missed you. ....you can get excited now :D
I'm crawling(or clawing) out of my skin. I fold. I feel destructive, vindictive, and something softer...something weak... not neglected...just astonished at my life.
It's going down tonight in this town
Cause they stare and growl
They all stare and growl
I take a scar every time I cry
Cause it ain't my style no it ain't my style
Going down to the gravel head to the barrel
Take this life and end this struggle
Los Angeles come scam me please
Emptiness never sleeps at Cliftons 6 am
With your bag lady friend and your mind descending
Stripped of the right to be a human in control
It's warmer in hell so down we go
My one heart felt too much from the start
I've seen people come and go
Living large and living low
You can build up your walls sitting on death row
Let the curtain fall on your murdered soul
You can wash it all down swallow your story
Get smacked off your head go down in drumroll glory
You won't solve it committing self inflicted crime
Go on pull the trigger this will be the last time
I cant be this now
Its not me anymore
I really tried Ive tried
Attempted suicide
Fucking convulsing and
Constantly denied
Subcountaing me somewhere
Inside
Scratching the walls of my glass coffin
Scraping raping
My nails on the glass on the bottom
Is there an end where does this end
If i was you id fucking hate me too- The Distillers
And crash.
I can't tell you what I remember of myself anymore. It's all bits and pieces, fragmented shards of beautiful glass and twisted metal. My life is a series of productive car crashes. You pick up the pieces and move on taking out of the situation what you may.
It's weird to be stable. It took me forever to figure out why I feel strange and it's because I'm stable. Stability is far more nerve wrecking for me than living moment to moment. I feel like I was just waiting for something to go wrong. On the edge of my seat for no reason. It's weird always knowing what tomorrow will bring. Where you have to stay. What you have to do. I'm used to being haphazard. I think It took Saturday and Sunday to completely embrace this.
And strangely enough you taking care of my delirious sick ass on Sunday morning put everything at ease. I love that you take care of me when I can't. I love seeing you everyday. I love making you happy. You make stability seem so damn appealing.
And we've been talking dirty pictures
In the land of the pedigrees
Smiling pretty
Hiding short skirts and dirty knees
And what's it going to take
for you to give up those dreams
My head is in a fog lately and I can't think straight. Middletown is a stagnant pond...on second thought maybe it's just my house, and really even not the house but the occupants. It's strange. It's an antihome of sorts. My car is my home. My car takes me everywhere I want to go to be happy. It takes me hiking, away, work, adventuring, matt's place, all of the random places where I find a bit of peace. So I default to my car feeling like home.
I adore my personality flaws. They truly make me happy. However I've never really felt any attachment to who I see in the mirror, let alone my physical flaws. It could really just be a complete stranger to me sometimes. It's not fun being encouraged to compete for who can eat less, have the best clothes, the best skin. It's the one thing I always truly hated the most about living here. It drives me crazy.
It's been months since my last move and I'm still living out of boxes, suitcases, and garbage bags full of my things. I'm not sure if it's my situations or merely who I've become. Am I that person that is so transient in nature that I feel more comfortable living as such or has it just become a habit for me? I would like to hope it's a bit of both. Not too much of one or the other.
I need to write more. I wish I could record my thoughts sometimes. I can think so fluidly and cohesively. When I go to write things just clumsily spill out. I'm a poor writer. I jump from one idea to another, poor, poor planning pepper with some a.d.d.. I'm haphazard. It works for most things in life, keeps it exciting, not writing. None of this is what I signed on to write about. This is random spillover, the drunken conversation that just mindlessly slipped to a out to a stranger after one too many late night drinks. I had an agenda god damn it and now I feel like this isn't the time or place for it.
I'm excited about my life. I have a great deal of passion for the things I've been doing lately. That's one of the few things of value in life. If you can't find passion for the things you do you are not living! Take passion in everything. Strive to find meaning, value, and love for what you do, accomplish, the people you encounter. Life is beautiful. There's a subtle grace about the world if you take the time to tap into it. There's a rhythm, rhyme, and pattern to life.
...see yet another spillover. My real agenda. I have more to say. I have witticisms, sarcasm, and stupidity yet to unveil. Perhaps later, perhaps never.
And I somehow fell into the way
the hair falls into your eyes
the angle of your neck
and sucked into...
your fingertips slide down my face
All these thoughts I've defined in you.- Chris Martinez
<3
I could write pages and pages and pages right now. I could pour my heart out, lay out all my thoughts on life, all the dirty little facts, truths, and opinions. I could go on for hours. I could wow, dazzle, and disgust you just as easily. I'm not sure what to make of life right now. Perhaps this would be more palatable, far easier to follow if I slept on it. My ramblings mean far much more to me than thought out mumbo jumbo, but I'm not sure exactly what I feel like confessing to today. I'm not sure what would burn me at the stake or what would make me a martyr in others eyes.
She lost her focus yesterday
She lost her focus in the sun
She sits and stares at it for hours
She says she likes to go outside
She gets hung up on the wind
She gets lost inside the happy noise
Sometimes I dont understand her
Sometimes I dont want to understand her
She says no no no no
She dont want no double life
She says I should know why
She seems happier at night
Her color tv and her chemical smile
I dont wanna know the reason
I dont wanna know the reason why
She says
Jesus owes her money
She says
The angels are her friends
What the hell does that mean?
Shes got the chemical smile- Everclear
So I've lost over twenty pounds in the past month and think I'll lose maybe ten more before I stop. Not that I needed to but I feel better being smaller. I have my amazing little body back, far better than it ever was in high school actually. Legs that don't touch, perfectly, flat stomach, a tiny waist. I'm so excited for summer!!! I can't wait for bikinis and such lol. Oh it's just a good feeling to be a size 2/4 again.
I haven't been this happy in a long time, like two years. I needed out of monotony. I needed a new direction. I'm actually horribly excited about my life right now. I fucking love my life, hardcore, to the bone.
This is how I feel lately. How I feel about moving back. How I feel about starting over. How I feel about not being a full time college student. I feel like i'm making a lifetime decision, and it scares the hell out of me. I'm fickle. I feel like everyone wants me to go back to the simplicity of here. I'm not simple. I don't know what I'm doing with my life. I have the but the highest of aspirations, they don't lie in middletown, but then again they didn't lie in Newark. I'm not quite sure if they lie in Delaware. In fact i'm sure they don't. I'm overwhelmed. I'm underwhelmed. I'm scared. I'm confident. Yet I will never doubt myself. I don't want to come down.
Gonna get back to basics
Guess Ill start it up again
Im falling from the ceiling
Youre falling from the sky now and then
Maybe you were shot down in pieces
Maybe I slipped in between
But we were gonna be the wildest people they ever hoped to see
Just you and me
So whyd you come home to this sleepless town
Its a lifetime commitment
Recovering the satellites
All anybody really wants to know is...
When you gonna come down
Your mother recognizes all youre desperate displays
And she watches as her babies drift violently away
til they see themselves in telescopes
Do you see yourself in me?
Were such crazy babies, little monkey
Were so fucked up, you and me
So whyd you come home to this faithless town
Where we make a lifetime commitment
To recovering the satellites
And all anybody really wants to know is...
When are you gonna come down
She sees shooting stars and comet tails
Shes got heaven in her eyes
She says I dont need to be an angel
But Im nothing if Im not this high
But we only stay in orbit
For a moment of time
And then youre everybodys satellite
I wish that you were mine
So whyd you come home to this angels town
Its a lifetime decision
Recovering the satellites
Everybody really knows for sure...
That youre gonna come down
That youre gonna come down- Counting Crows
So I'm back where it all started. Back where I fought tooth and nail to get out of. Back where I was crashing on couches sleeping in my car to get away. And I'm back with no more than I left with. With no much more desire to be here. Ugh lol. You can't take life too seriously, you just can't or you would go utterly crazy. Stress is a cruel mistress but great for losing weight. 10 pounds in a week is a new record for me. Always look on the bright side lol. "When it's my turn to march up to glory, I'm going to have one hell of a story."
Breaking up is kind of like waking up with tiny shards of a broken martini glass in your lower body. You are mildly aware of how they got there, dumb or drunk enough to sit where you just shattered a martini glass, and it hurts like hell with no concept of how good or bad the drink acually tasted. In lighter news they stopped selling fruitopia in the U.S. in 2001. I love answers. A walk like a burned out porn star
With aching feet for a car
My buddy had a baby with a girl named star
Makes me appreciate how the little things are
But crossing a road isn't easily told
To a young has-been centerfold
Labelled a winner's episode
Yeah, I'm really clean if you know what I mean
Except for this recurring dream
Of losing total feeling
While the windmill's squealing
The windmill's squealing
I paint to kill the dead saints
I paint to make it clear
My colors run in blue and gray
But they give hope to someone dear
Yeah, yeah, yeah, 2AM lovesick
With a walking pneumonia drumkick
And this candle doesn't have a wick
But I'm really not that scared
No, I'm not that scared
A walk like a burned out porn star
With aching feet for a car
My buddy had a baby with a girl named star
Makes me appreciate how the little things are-Blue Ocotber
To begin, sitdiary is an old friend. This is merely a fresh coat of paint on an old room, the latest book in a series. You won't stumble upon any of my previous editions, they've been boxed up and put in storage years ago.
I'd like to begin with the past, a year ago to the day, written on these same walls: "It's been a 50 hour workweek and i'm burnt out. I like to start my days with water and a panic attack, Lucky Charms optional. I like to go to work early so i have time to wake up the manager who is still home while the buildings alarm is going off and the cops are buzzing about. I like to profile people by what they buy.
I feel wayward. Its not a preapproved mood-option.It's something that sneaks up behind you and jumps on your back just when you think you might have gotten eveything under some sort of control.
I want to take a vacation in a hippieriffic 60's style musical movie. I think it would do me some good." And here I am a full year later. Everything is completely topsy-turvy and yet still exactly the same. It was a rough 2008. If you know me well you know of it, I refuse to get into specifics, as it has nothing to do with me. I love to write. Rarely about things directly, but about everything and nothing all at once. Rip it apart, never take anything at face value, get to know me. Do I stress you out
My sweater is on backwards and inside out
And you say how appropriate
I dont want to dissect everything today
I dont mean to pick you apart you see
But I cant help it
There I go jumping before the gunshot has gone off
Slap me with a splintered ruler
And it would knock me to the floor if I wasnt there already
If only I could hunt the hunter
And all I really want is some patience
A way to calm the angry voice
And all I really want is deliverance
Do I wear you out
You must wonder why Im relentless and all strung out
Im consumed by the chill of solitary
Im like estella
I like to reel it in and spit it out
Im frustrated by your apathy
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land
If only I could meet the maker
And Im fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature
And all I need now is intellectual intercourse
A sould to dig the hole much deeper
All I really want is some peace man
A place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength
All I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice- Alanis Morissette
