Sanity plays unfairly
Through its most cunning means
In a world of pretty uproar
Like editing the snapshots just to fit
Inside a narrow vision
Just like the frame of mind that is
Expected
Of everyone
And everything
And going with the flow
Is really nothing
And whoever's sleeping at the moment
Misses an awful lot
They paint his face all red
And when he wakes
He feel so stupid
But he laughs
Because that's the mind he needs to have;
The conforming mind
The pretty mind
The sane mind
The mind that is the norm in our world
In this world which is
Insane
And
So self contradictory
for non-conformity,
That fleeting trait,
Is all of a sudden
Fashionable
so let's all be unique.

(they seem to find that joke lame too, so why are they laughing?)

Wait...
With sanity's favor at risk
you'd never
ever
admit you noticed anything....

It was four in the morning and the covers
Were twisting to bones;

Seventeen-year-old letdowns
Who tucked their morals
In dusty algebra books,

I know the meaning of life,
And I never stopped to care-
I tried to whisper away these secrets,
But my voice rendered silent;

I tried to sing a disaster,
But it lingered off-key.

The ghost would never stop staring,
Because youth fades like magazines
Until all that's left is hints of hues-

And I deserved something more than
a summer sick gray.

I wanted to sing a miracle,
but the world was going blurry
and my eyes were falling into
the caverns of my skull,
Searching for a trace of youth-
Well, the back of my mind was lovely,
but i don't thing you care these days.

I'm just nineteen
but I've lost myself in layers
of foundation-
covering up the freckles and scars.
Everything I need to forget
(But really don't think I can)

So please,
Tell me something different;
It's only pretty if we mean every word.
Sometimes if I'm not careful enough,
and it's too early in the morning
I remember...
being six too
and I was cootie tainted
but the most stunning case in the world.

But we're older now, right?
Sinking brashly into couches
and it's nine o' clock
and your searching for words,
the ones you buried in the pocket
of your favorite jeans,
years...
and years ago.

And once upon a time,
we were children.
With lullabies
and pretty faces
and we were in love,
but not with each other-
with life,
with color,
with the way our hand were soft
and sweating
and small
and empty....
splendor in our finger tips

And we were so real; so alive

but things always have to change....
growing up.

Every day I go for a walk to watch
The pills play tricks on my mind
Covered up in the summer time
To hide the stains of the painting
My visual ode to gravity

I will die of ink poisoning
Long before my heart stops beating
Really,
Really.

I will die of the belief that
The clouds will tell them all my secrets
That languages I don't understand were
Invented just to confuse me

I'm an egocentric being,
I know
But at lest
I can assure you
My every act is quickly punished
Ever in my mind,
Ever wrong.

When I find the bathroom door ajar
I sit and watch as a speck of dust
Kills the perfect
And I have to move away...

With nameless faces watching me
Packing my bag in solidarity
To run for a temporary leave

Leave my mind in a broken freezer
Leave my paranoia in my veins
It's really not so bad to feel your blood
Blacken and toxic
Inside you.

To make it's damage before it's done
To mark the death before I die
To make a bit of sanity
That by now,
Of course,
Is gone completely

I apologize before I hurt myself again
And I hope you never
understand why I do it

Just like me I guess
none the wiser
Regarding my own
twisted mind

And my
Abusive relationship
with myself,

The phantom of a person
who scarred
more than my skin

I'm sorry
I visited you in your sleep

Dripping crimson,
as I do

From my mind
Through my eyes,

pulling trust
from my lies

Grinning, laughing
I'm a wolf
hidden underneath my clothes

And I think you should be
Full of mirth, just like me
High, Higher
Up
Up
Up

I don't like to call myself a masochist....
I just like endorphin's

What makes you a great artist?
Coffee. You stalk the night
looking for a fire in your mind.
You find broken words and pages
scattered a crossed a massive bookstore
and you burn them,
scrunch them up,
and throw then together
to no avail
until someone comes along
and says "look outside"
It's raining.
You look.

You wear your feelings inside out one the paper.
You know it's ugly.
You know your muse wears black, not white.
You know she's fat, lazy and smokes.
You hate the smell of tobacco.

And your art is to learn to love
the feeling of choking on it

Mental Hypocrisy.
Insanity by normality.
Flowing thoughts,
Corruptive morals.
This rib cage of mine
so full of lies.
Eternal screaming.
Bursting!
From deep inside.
I was normal once..
What is normal?
Who's to say.
Damned by night
  Painted face by day.
The truth once untold,
rises to the surface.
Please..
I beg and I plead!
If left alone for to long my mind never seems to stop.
Combustion.
I'm fed up with this shit.
Take me away!!
From myself.
I want this voice to stop!
Let the silence be known.
Let me be at peace,
at least in the end.
I didn't want this.
My undying words
this unknowledgeable  thirst for pain.
But this pain is mine.
And mine alone.
As I am alone in this sea of thoughts.
Continuous Uncontrollable
I take myself down.
Bit by bit.
All I can be.
My own originality
Has created
My
Destruction.
Only to re-build again.
This continuous cycle..
  Never seems to end

I dreampt of the sun, washed up in puddles,
fractured as broken glass, but

harder to look at.  Springtime: bodies afraid
to break the ice.  When do we live again,
after the dead have grown cold?
This is desolation carved in stone. December,

The snow falls fast, and thick. I
wait for your headlights, blurred insects

Crawling across the frosted window, then fall asleep
alone; vaguely remembering last winter.

Our bones had shocking conversations in the dark
but we always awoke, pretending to be deaf.

I wish I'd remembered to tell you this: you are as hard
as the life you fell from. but can you sustain

the damage? We're not really that much different.
Upon encountering blank walls, waiting rooms, insomnia,

we ask the same questions of that God who never answers:
Are we ever safe? and Can you even hear us

We are hovering
between seasons.
Thin air brings promise of
days bathed in gray,
footprints forgotten in the drifts
and the hibernation of moonlit
conversation.
Tomorrow when you wake up
the sun will be
apologetic,
further and further away.
You will call me, unstable and
reluctantly sincere.
Remember last November
comparing scars,
wondering
had these been deeper would we have lasted
till the new year?
Your second hand smoke wakes me before the alarm.
This cold is sterile and endless.
I trace dry fingertips over the small of your back,
attempting to view the world beyond
frosted glass.
Suck down the filter.
Roll over and remember
that beyond us, nothing else
exists.
The world outside is waiting for
Christmas.
The months after will be exaggerated
and scentless.
Tis' the season for light pollution.
Tis' the season for keeping secrets.

Beauty is knowledge of the oppressor.
                  you, carved from animal dark,
                  shadow scattered over stained tile.
Your thin hands shake with taste of
                                                previous wars
fought crouching with the toilet seat up

                              ghosts
embroider my breath against the soft of your skin

caution is safe.
Eve was carved from a rib.
I turn my face from
your raw knuckles and chapped lips.

wind rakes hard fingers against the window
                The oppressor is still speaking to
You, rippling away from yourself in the glass
                                                          Like candlelight.
Broken eyelashes.       
                    Thin Nails.                     
                              Dry skin.
All of this,Singed.

You rise immune to my
Do you want to talk about it
bruised
and astonished

                                  feeling beautiful

                    beauty is knowledge of the oppressor

You could say it was a suicide trip,
faltering over a mound,
in sandals,
very...little...gripage

Excessive ingestion of mind numbing,
pleasures?
A hundred millis' over the legal limit

The heroine comes out on top,
doesn't she always?

Consuming half my body weight.
Pink, blue, and white
equals utter confusion

Young girl pretends She is not so young
innocence is lost promptly these days
She plucks her brows, Her makeup is thick
and Her pencilled lips pucker
like every other time She's been slapped
by the look of an onward stranger
but She doesn't mind

Self worth is at its lowest.

The years go by and She learns so much
amongst Her thoughts bullets race like the thorns
Her body has bloomed a rare rose
Her beauty has become a double-edged sword
She sucks Her stomach in and makes Her tracks
toward the inevitable street She's made her home

In Her case, hope is scarce and drama
is as common as trauma

She's all grown up and has nothing to prove
but deep down
She wishes She was as solid as a mountain.

People all around you
Have to stop and stare
Some will even wonder
How those scars got there

I have bad scars too
Except mine aren't hard to hide
See yours are on your skin
Mine are deep inside

Yes my insides damaged
So cut up and torn
It's not because of sickness
Or because of 3rd degree burns

Mine are from the past
So dark and not well seen
I don't have anymore nightmares
In fact, I don't even dream

I'm so torn apart
Broken up and hurt
My life has not been pleasant
I've been tossed and thrown in dirt

The people I have trust the most
Have broken me and lied
I don't have a best friend any more
She stab me in the back

When I do the right thing wrong
My life goes round and round
When I wake up the next morning
I'm lying on the ground

My heart is somewhat broken
I suffer from great pain
Some people stop and wonder
Is that girl insane?

Poisonous people,
committing poisonous deeds
Poisonous roots
grown from poisonous seeds

Tainted religions
drenched in tainted blood
Tainted relations
breeding tainted love

Toxic fabrications
veil toxic duplicity
Toxic betrayal
revealed by toxic deceit

Venomous accusations
served in lethal doses
Venomous meditations
until the mind decomposes

she's breathing in sky,
and praying that there will be something left
at the end;
more than empty space,

...and there never is

pretty little crucifix;
teaching me to break myself
with your eyes like nails;
smiling threatening to pierce
my flesh

so I sucked away hope
with my vortex lungs,
a public display
in the name of camaraderie.

I wrapped the clouds around my little finger,
shoving song birds in my pockets

silencing the wounds.

the sky fell in love with my forgery;
and we slept away the anger
until we threatened implosions.
"there's something gorgeous
in fatality"

She's breathing in again,
and praying for
a breath;
best friends in the form of immortality.

And the sky never cherished her back...

Do you feel pain?
nine times out of ten,
the answer will be yes...
That's not a real statistic
I made it up

I'm good at making this up.
Like why I have bruises on my back?
I fell an accident...
And the scars?
all accidents too...

I was in a fight once,
with myself.
I trust you too much,
so i'm telling you.
Don't look so shocked;
it didn't even hurt at all

I wanted to....
Regularly
I hit myself to see how it feels
or cut,
or burn,
but it doesn't make much difference.

See?
Isn't it pretty, really,
the crimson trail down my arm.
warm is all I feel,
then nothing.
I lick the open cut
It tastes like blood,
It tastes like iron,
It tastes like strength

Still nothing....

Erring on the edge of tears
she watches the world though
eyes dilated with
something like love
a bit like misery

She stained her contacts with blue
In the hope that she could look
in the mirror
and see a twin,
cold and free
and icy and detached
from the desire to be loved
by another,
in the way she could never love
that imperfect sister
her twin,
her cold replica

staring,
staring with hate
and waiting for something
that could scar her
on the outside
like a blade perhaps,
that makes beads of blood form
at a perfect cut
or a syringe perhaps,
that make her face so malleable

propelling her anxiety

Are you listening to me?
I'm telling you our story,
my twin

There's a picture that moves
and talks to me in third person
about things that seem awfully familiar
but a stranger shouldn't know them;
no they definitely shouldn't

and pictures don't more, do they?

I'm ever so,
ever so tired...

There were no goodbyes today,
Just that feeling inside that something
has gone wrong.
the world feels like it's on an incline-
(I guess that make sense.... it is)
Like every step I take
might bring me to the edge of the world
or over it...

Maybe it was all the faces
I saw today that I won't remember.
Or maybe it was the man playing basket ball
with himself
underneath a drug-induced sky
that I know I'll never forget.
Or maybe it was because so many things
have changed...
just today.

Today my lies were all thrown back at me
I was slapped in the face by honesty-
not a girl slap but a real, brutal,
I want to ear you apart slap...
and it did

And how tragic,
a life time ago
I was walking in circles around you,
figure eights even.
But now you've gone
and put on your dancing shoes,
and showed me up...
tragic really.

It's a terrible way to end it all
under a drug-induced blue sky

I apologize before I let you down again
I never meant to disappoint you

and fuck it,
I know it sounds hollow
and unconvincing
but it's our choice if you believe me
knowing this is the most honest
I've ever been in my
whole
  little
      life

So go ahead and disbelieve me
Go ahead and say

You're a fake,
You're vanity personified
You don't fucking care for anything except your
fucking chipped pink nail polish
and your cat which mean more to you
than any human's ever been

Okay, so firstly;
What the hell is wrong with animals
And yes, I know its a cat
not a human
and guess what? Maybe that a good thing
since judging from me,
humans aren't exactly the nicest creatures

and secondly, I know I'm vain
I admit it, but listen
listen to my compliments
I paid them in hundreds,
in thousands,
to you...

I'm sorry I failed at school,
sorry that numbers aren't my passion,
sorry I can't make beautiful pictures out of nothing

I'm sorry you never understood
what it means to me
to be in front of the camera;

loving,
loving myself to the bone.
