I'm Wondering The Same Thing...

"What is it inside our heads

That makes us do the opposite,

Makes us do the opposite

Of what's right for us."

- My Morning Jacket

COMPLETELY YOU

THESE UPSIDE DOWN DREAMS OF RAGE

FUEL THE BLAZE THAT TORCH OUR DAYS

LOST INSIDE YOUR WINDING MAZE

CLAIMS OF LOVE MAKE ME SLAVE

REACHING OUT FOR JUST ONE TOUCH

WHEN "ONE" HAPPENS TO BE ANYTHING BUT

WHAT YOUR EYES SAY DEEP INSIDE

BECAUSE SOMEWHERE ELSE YOUR HEART RESIDES

TORMENTED WITHIN YOUR SOUL I KNOW

ONE IS TWO AND SOMETIMES IT SHOWS

IN LATE NIGHT TALK AND CONVERSATIONS

YOU CAN'T TUNE IN TO JUST ONE STATION

IN YOUR RATS NEST IS WHERE I LIE

YOU PROMISE ME SOON I'LL BE UNTIED

ALL IT TAKES IS YOU TO CLEAR YOUR MIND

BUT WE BOTH KNOW IT'LL NEVER UNBIND

I'VE TRIED TO LEAVE BUT IT RIPS MY SKIN

THE LIES AND LUST MANIFEST WITHIN

WHEN YOU'VE "CHOSEN" ME BUT STILL LOVE HIM

IF WE COULD GO BACK WE'D NEVER BEGIN

Its that time of year again...

Well now that 2009 is officially half over I figured it's time for my yearly blog update. This would be dripping with sarcasm if it wasn't so true.  I logged into my Dashboard and I'm like "wha??" Luckily for me I can adapt pretty quickly to changes. Ok, so they weren't that difficult to sort out. 

I would love to share with you all everything that is new, but instead I will share something less exhausting. Here is a poem I wrote in 1995... 

BLACK RAIN

I can't cry

I won't lie

I can't decide

Should I die

Black and blue

Slit on my wrist

You can see it

When I clench my fist

The blackest rain 

Runs through my veins

I won't refrain

It's you I blame

Stuck on my back

I won't crack

I just relax

To let the pain attack

If I wake

Give me some more

If I die

It's without remorse
