we barely ever speak
infact, less and less each day
but i still like to feel your eyes linger on me
when i look away

show what you see to others
so that they might understand your thoughts.

and besides you're probably holding hands
with skinny pretty girl who likes to talk about bands
and all i wanna do is ride bikes with you
and stay up late and watch cartoons.

she wants to know if i love her,
that's all anyone wants from anyone else,
not love itself but the knowledge that love is
there, like new batteries in the flashlight
in the emergency kit in the hall closet.
- Jonathan Safran Foer, Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close

daydreams were dangerous
because they made her wish for
things she could never have.

you said so yourself, all i care about is the story.
all i care about is the way it sounds when you read it out loud.
isn't that right? did you know you ripped out my heart when you said
i only ever cared about the way it looked when i wrote it down on paper?

she walked away, well her shoes were untied,
and the eyes were all red,
you could see that we've cried.

she understood that her heart operated on it's own instructions,
that she had no control over it or, indeed, over anything else.

life turns to dust & rain turns to rust,
gossip is a truth,

my demons,
though quiet,
are never quite silenced.
calm as they may be,
they wait patiently
for a reason to wake,
take an overdue breath,
and crawl back into my ear.

❝ Love anything and your heart will be
wrung and possibly broken. If you want
to make sure of keeping it intact you
must give it to no one, not even an
animal. Wrap it carefully round with
hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all
entanglements. Lock it up safe in the
casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in
that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless,
it will change. It will not be broken; it will
become unbreakable, impenetrable,
irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable. ❞
-- C.S. Lewis

❝expose yourself to your deepest fear.
after that, fear has no power, and the
fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes.
you are free.❞ - jim morrison
