Listening to: Beautiful Disgrace-Orgy
Do not ask me for haunted. Do not ever ask me for haunted, because i will give you haunted and you will never be the same. I will turna nursery rhyme room into a prison of rhythmic sighs. Of mice screaming and clocks that will not stop thier tick tock, tick tock. The closed eyes of dolls and animals will not open here, not even if you try ot pry them awake gentle, pleading fingers. Iwill make the record skip; the arm won't lift from the only song that has evermade you sad.
I will tear each blade of grass from the green velvet of you memory, leaving only the empty stems of dandelions gone to seed. I will burn the wooden castles of you remembrance, set the forest where all of your remaining dreams reside on fire. The branches you swung from will be nothing more thatn steaming bones in the cold morning air.
I will hld the baby bird that you brought back to life with an eye dropper of your breath. I will be careful with its wings, of softly beating chest. I will hold itn in the palm of my hand, close my fingers gently around its wings. But then, quite suddnely, I will squeeze my fist tightly around its quickening heart. Squeeze until beak crumbles, until bones crack. And this will be the one thing that you can't forgive.
Iknow now what you will and will not tolerate. I know from watching you, from inflicting pain, that you are capapble of great forgiveness. You forgeive without waiting for apologies. You forgive tremendous cruelty, each cruelty, until this one. I am certain of this. I will make you trust, and then i will crush the bones of your crudulity.
Do not ask me for haunted, do not ever aske me for haunted. Because I will give you haunted and you will never be the same. You may think exorcism is as easy as words, but it's far more complicated thatn that, much more dangerous and ultimately unkind. Do not ask me for haunted, dont ever ask me to recollect, because the collected remains i will giver you will be more real to you than i am.
- let me make this clear, this wasnt written by me. i just came across it. beautiful...just beautiful
