the foods pretty gross [07 Sep 2008|03:00am]
[ mood | artistic ]

i was part of the us army
i wore the same uniforms that murderers wear
ate the same food that they ate
slept, showered and shit all the same
my face became unrecognizable
and with a m16, so did my hands
i no longer knew who stared back
in the reflection of a mirror
i was invisible, i was the same
i was no different then all the other lost souls
searching for someone to fight other them themselves
wanting to forget the inner battle
and shoot it through the barrel of weapons
"for a cause bigger then themselves"
a cause no one understood.

you only have to give your soul
your right to think
your right to live
and sign the dotted line.

i began to feel as if
"id rather die then be a part of this"
i got tylonal, swallowed 40
the next week was
the strangest
week of my life.

i didn't die
i was hospitalized
the dr. was hospitable
he held my hand, brushed the hair from my face
told me everything would be okay
after this theyd take me to another place

i was put on a stretcher
i don't remember what it looked like inside the ambulance
i think i fell asleep
how can i forget something like that?
i went to a place called wilford hall
where i could no longer go 6 feet near the exit
i was strip searched
they took my shoe laces
my fucking shoe laces
so my tennis shoes
went "plop, plop, plop"
as i walked
i really appreciate shoe laces now.
all my belongings went into a paper bag
and locked in a cabinet.

people came and went while i was there.

there was a young man named thomas
he looked like a serial killer
was only in the air force for 2 days
before they put him away
he was really tall, had a thick ny accent
with a grocery list of issues.

they was an old man
who was ex air force
suicidal i dilation's
they gave him ritalin by mistake before bed
when i woke
he was sitting
in the big room
listing numbers
he counted ceiling tiles
screws and paintings all night long
made a list and memorized it.

another young man named matt
he was an alcoholic
liked to try and kill himself when he drank
he was a character
drew pictures of himself and beer
then would circle it
and put a line through it.

they liked us to color.

there was another young man named jeff
who was anxious and would sit 30 seconds
then get up
and circle the halls constantly
he told me he loved me
that he wanted to see me outside of this place
we would kiss right outside our room
with the doors open so the cameras couldnt see us.
i never saw him again after he left.

the gave me ambiem to sleep
i learned to stay awake
you start to trip
because your mind goes into rem state.

i spilled my soul to these people at group
knowing i would never see them again
knowing that i would never forget them.

lost souls,
faced with having to fight the inner battle,
again.

I find myself more serious then I ever have been. I dont know what it is. I guess I've found myself in a complex. I don't know if my hands are made for a gun. I don't know if my soul is ready for war. I don't know if I am finished with my childhood, or if I even ever had one. I've been stuck in such an alternate reality. I had parents but I didn't. I had boundries but chose freedom and rebellion. I have never stuck wtih anything my entire life. I chose a path that would give me everything I need if I only choose to give my all. I am scared. I am over joyed. I am astounded at myself. I'm feelings things I've never felt before. I feel like a child, but I feel like an adult. I hate the feelings you encounter in this period of growing up. I ship out in 3 weeks. 21 days exactly.

I told him not to fall in love with me.
I told him to promise and he told me he couldn't promise and laughed while responding that I am silly.
What round is this? 18345? Ding ding ding.
We may finally have a winner and all I can think about is running as far away as I can. When did this get thrown in my lap? Someone who is going encredibly far in life, is almost there and has treated me better and with more respect then any guy I have ever KNOWN. All I can think about it, uhh, wheres the music and rebellion? Whered the late night drives around town and singalongs go. This guy isn't into that. Where has my social norm of punk rock gone. I'm invited to thanksgiving. All the way in PA. Panic much? We are so entirly different. I'm planing on sleeves. I have ink lined up for the next month or so and having my other shit drawn up. What's he gonna do when he realizes im not part of his society? When he can't take me places without people going he's with a girl who looks like that? AH! I won't conform, it honestly makes me want to be more different. I don't know what to do with this.

On the other hand I've figured out what I would like to double major in. 2 of the 3. Phsycology, music appreciation and journalism. I figure I can try to become a music critic, do something I would enjoy muchly and be passionate about as well.




I thought of Kris while fucking him in order to get off.
Lovely,eh?

love i dont have to love [13 Aug 2006|02:47am]

I picked you out
Of a crowd and talked to you
Said I liked your shoes
You said thanks can I follow you?
So it's up the stairs
And out of view
No prying eyes
I poured some wine
I asked your name you asked the time
Now it's two o'clock,
the club is closed we're up the block
Your hands on me
I'm pressing hard against your jeans
Your tongue in my mouth
Trying to keep the words from coming out
You didn't care to know
Who else may have been you before
I want a lover I don't have to love
I want a girl who's too sad to give a fuck
Where's the kid with the chemicals?
I thought he said to meet me here but I'm not sure
I got the money if you got the time
You said it feels good I said I'll give it a try
Then my mind went dark
We both forgot where your car was parked
Let's just take the train
I'll meet up with the band in the morning
Bad actors with bad habits
Some sad singers
They just play tragic
And the phone's ringing
And the van's leaving
Let's just keep touching
Let's just keep keep singing
I want a lover I don't have to love
I want a boy who's so drunk he doesn't talk
Where's the kid with the chemicals
I got a hunger and I can't seem to get full
I need some meaning I can memorize
The kind I have always seems to slip my mind
But you but you
You write such pretty words
But life's no story book
Love's an excuse to get hurt
And to hurt
"Do you like to hurt?"
"I do! I do!"
"Then hurt me."

My body is tired and achy. My mind is on overload. I remember when I knew what date it was, when I didn't have to think really hard to remeber what day of the week it is and then realize it's almost the weekend again and wonder what happend to my time. It's wasted, and so am I. I hate the unknown, and big changes. I am conteracting my feelings, I know what I'm feeling is fake but I can't feel real. I want to splatter my brains on my pretty postered and pictured walls. I can't sleep. I can't stop thinking. Whatever happend to wanting to wake up in the morning instead of dreading the next day?
