Two bit town

Gotta get outta this two bit town

leave this place, never come around

no, I’m not depressed

but if I stay, I’m gonna die

nothing for me here,

full of losers and sluts

nobodys really looking for love

just the next good screw

You can’t look for love with your eyes closed

you can’t find poetry when you only read prose

I know i’ve said it many times before but

this time I’ve got to go…

It’s taken it’s toll, i’ll never survive

i’ve held on for four years

don’t you think it’s about time?

you can come with me

you should probably leave

follow me into this reprive

but if you can’t untangle yourself,

don’t begrudge me

love me, help me, set me free…

I’ve gotta get out of this two bit town,

or death will become me

King of pop-R.I.P (my two cents)

My heart is grieved to think of the life of any man, father, husband, brother, snuffed out early, for any reason. Although I can’t say I was a lifelong fan of Michael Jackson, only in the last few years have I discovered the gems that made up his music, I fell in love with “you will be there” also known as the free willy song, and lately through some of my lonelier days and nights listening to “you are not alone brought me comfort, and often moved me to tears, and who hasn’t made comical attempts to dance thriller at a party, or better in your own home! The accusations made against him, never swayed me, not only was he proven Innocent in a court of law, I believe he felt himself still a child, and never considered his actions even questionable until someone questioned them, I’ve slept in bed with children who are not related to me, my friends sick niece asked to curl up with me and sleep and I said of course sweetie! a baby boy I was babysitting lay on my chest to watch cartoons and we both fell asleep, does that make me a child molester? Certainly not! “To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. – timothy” In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted. here was a man, who from a young age was forced to behave as an adult, when all he wanted was to play, to feel the love and security that every child should have. Through all of his music the themes of loneliness, insecurity, and sadness linger… I Have the gift of empathy and just watching the memorial service had me in tears, I don’t really think of him as the king of pop, although he undoubtedly was, I see him as a sad, sweet soul, who wanted nothing more than to love and be loved, I see a fantastic father, and even though he made mistakes (we all do) I hope that the media, and all his naysayers, will at least have the decency to not speak ill of the dead, and let the man rest in peace. If not for him, for his family, his sweet little girl who broke everyone’s hearts as she declared through her tears “my daddy was the best father you can imagine, and I love him so much!”

So I guess I end with this, Michael, although in the last few years of your life you may have doubted it, truly, you were loved. R.I.P

The Climb

Let me just start this post with a declaimer:

I strongly dislike hannah montana, not her personally just her show, music, memorabilia, and all she represents. However, her latest hit, “the climb” made me think.

.Every step I’m taking

Every move I make feels

Lost with no direction

My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying

Gotta keep my head held high

There’s always gonna be another mountain

I’m always gonna wanna make it move

Always gonna be a uphill battle

Sometimes I’m gonna have to lose

Ain’t about how fast I get there

Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side

It’s the climb

The_Climb_by_PeterGeo

How very true for me these day, I sometimes feel bursts of purposeful ambition, only to have my latest efforts squelched before really taking off… I find myself facing disappointment after disappointment, after broken heart. But Last night I started thinking, “you know, Wallowing in this isn’t really getting me anywhere..” I decided to be proactive, I went to the library, checked out some books, and set to work. I was up until 6:00 am. Mapping out goals for myself,making lists, and highlighting characteristics that I want to about myself.

I need, for instance, to gain more control of myself, especially my mouth. In todays society with freedom of speech, and various syndromes and disorders what I call “randomness” is much less taboo that it would’ve been a couple of decades ago. Which is good for me, since I tend to shout out the most random things, at the most inopportune moments! Or I simply divulge whatever might be floating through my head at any given moments, which among close friends can often prove amusing albeit slightly embarrassing. But lately it’s gotten worse, I find my self yelling out car windows or asking awkward questions to random strangers, and sometimes just being downright uncouth. SO I’ve been making a concerted effort to control myself. It’s difficult but, rewarding. Thats not to say of course that I’m stifling my naturally rambunctious and bubbly personality… just adding keen judgement to the mix.

My point is I could complain about the odd looks I get, or people calling me weird or creepy, and be depressed about it… or I can take charge and change the habits… I’m feeling pretty Good about this new take charge attitude… Things are finally looking up, I’m pursuing my art, exercising my mind, even playing chess again! This is the beginning of a beautiful summer! =] more updates coming soon! =]

lost at sea

Where did this tragic ending begin?

rising around my feet like broken glass

when did you relalize your hearts not in it

and when did love become a sin

this sea of memories drowns me in tears

reminding me of love we lost

I missed the place where we weren’t ruled by our fears

and what we felt was worth the cost.

the nights I spent

exploring you like uncharted waters

my love for you buoyed me

the nights you spent eyes ablaze loving me

all those nights on the open sea

my only true north was

your mouth on mine

never a compass never watching the sky

you lit fires untouched

by the waves around us

leaving me aching for more

thinking you to be strong enough to anchor

but then you return to shore

leaving me lost at sea

you say you never felt anything for me

so I’m still drifting at sea,

wishing the shore couldn’t have kept my love from me

so I’ll remain lost at sea

I’ll be forever lost at sea.

hallewhoya

so it’s a new year

feels like the last ones mourning itself in my head

I feel lucky not to be dead

but dead might be better than a lone

and I don’t want to repeat hundreds of songs

but I wouldn’tve minded that midnight kiss

why’s my life a hit and miss

feels like a billion steps foreward and a leap year back

I can understand whats wrong with this peice of me

the one thats stuck to that coat of yours

I knew i loved you but I thought i’d internalized enough of it to move on

on to what? that stupid dildo of a guy i called my boyfriend

he’s trash.

you’re like caramel cofee on a winters morning

when your toes feel like ice but all you can feel is that toffee oozing down your tounge

and the frost on the window phazes away when i see your voice on the caller id.

I throw on some lip gloss and a old lady coat and make my way to the bus stop. smoke a cigarette and try to forget that i’m back.

so this is a new year.

Thank God.

I utterly loathe and despise myself

and I don’t know what to do. How can I stop screwing up everything? including myself. it’s like I take 2 steps forward… and 5 steps back. I think I lost my best friend today. I didn’t even do anything drastic. just a little white lie… I shouldn’t have done it… I’m so stupid. why do I screw up everything? this hurts tea;

not looking back..

But I miss florida. Really randomly. I want to go back to calvery assembly, and being in the catalyst youth group. I met a guy named ryan. I fell into his arms by accident and I  can’t stop thinking about him… I feel silly because it’s rediculous! ]

lyrical cacoon

I wish I could take this love for you, rap it in a lyrical cacoon. I’d be a blockbuster, when I communicate the luster, that my eyes take when i look at you. your soul is wonderful.

I love him. still.

I’ll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You’ve been the only thing that’s right
In all I’ve done

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we’ll make it anywhere
Away from here

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I’ll be right beside you dear

Louder louder
And we’ll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can’t raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I’ll be right beside you dear

Louder louder
And we’ll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can’t raise your voice to say

Slower slower
We don’t have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart my dear
We’re bound to be afraid
Even if it’s just for a few days
Making up for all this mess

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I’ll be right beside you dear

Wondering about the future.

I feel so lonely and lost. I don’t know what the  heck to do. should I stay or should I go. Should I love or should I give up. I really don’t know. I love him still. I don’t know how to cure myself of that. But I do know that my heart is aching. and I need to make a move soon.
