Morning Thoughts

Kill the messenger.

Sunshine hits her, in the way only Clark Gable could accurately describe. The moonlight accents the slopes of her cheeks and every square inch i've imagined my lips visiting. The vacancy sign is there for me to find, until then im stuck with my instincts. How can I trust such a trite concept as my own feelings. They've betrayed me, like Benedict Arnold, except they burned the ship and fled long ago. For everytime ive been hurt, and sometimes just because they could. I need to fill out one of those contractual obligations to not get fucked with again, so what ive been keeping inside can now be let out without worry. No one violates a contract.

It's morning, and im waking up without a warm body to clasp onto. 98.6 degrees less to thermally warm these hollow sheets. It's going to be that way for a while, I think. Oh but how much I would give for a night without such cold, where sweat reigns and desheveled hair shares the throne. It's said that everyone has an obstacle in life, why does mine include finding someone to share my life with. I'm so young with visions of grandeur and desires equally as lavish... But it cant just be anyone though.

No, I cant comprimise. And i'll be sending the rain your way. Because its time for me to shine. And we cant all have our dreams come true. Then they wouldnt be dreams, but just another checklist to fulfill on our way to get gas. Why couldnt my visions be full of something like a balloon, those are easy to find. Instead im slipping into you, quickly and with reckless abandon. I cant control the flood, and I really dont want to. With every water droplet reflecting your eyes so crisp like the summer and the wind echoing your scent so sweet like autumn afternoons. I think I'll take the rain back my way. And learn to deal.

Its what we all have to do in the end, anyway.

  1. You should be a writer. Screw philosophy. Writers ask why and then they come up with endings and alternate endings and sequels and works of matter-of-fact art.

    By the way, your entry reminds me of this song:

    the world it shows me up
    my clothes they show me up
    I never knew this before
    my finest hour that I've ever known
    was finding a pound on the underground

    and my words came stumbling out
    then I went tumbling out
    I've never been hit before
    and the finest hour that I've ever known
    was finding a pound on the underground

    and I'll keep hoping you are the same as me
    and I'll send you letters
    and come to your house for tea

    we are who we are what do the others know?
    but poetry is not for me
    so show me the way to go home

    and the words came stumbling out of my mouth
    and I went tumbling out

    but I'll keep hoping you are the same as me
    and I'll send you letters and
    come to your house for tea

    we are who we are what do the others know?
    but poetry is not for me
    so show me the way to go
    oh, I'm going home

    but I'll keep hoping you are the only one
    yes and I'll send you letters
    wouldn't it be such fun?

    we are who we are
    whatever the others say
    but poetry is not for me
    & much as I'd like to stay
    oh I just want to go home

    you're you're you're too young
    should've been you you're you're too young
    it should've been you too, you're too, you're too young
    it should've been you you you're too young
    you should've been safer saner
    bribed the judge and then sat down
    ooh you're you're you're too young

  2. That was amazing, very...well shit, I dunno. I loved it though.

    Loved this bit, maybe cause I felt I could relate: "It's morning, and im waking up without a warm body to clasp onto. 98.6 degrees less to thermally warm these hollow sheets. It's going to be that way for a while, I think. Oh but how much I would give for a night without such cold, where sweat reigns and desheveled hair shares the throne.

    Very nice MRS
