46. Ink Clots [Crazy Hearts]

OH MY. It seems like I'm going back in time! Not only am I being totally immature on a daily basis, but I am also absolutely crazy at times xD WOW. Truth is, lot's of stuff is going on in my life, some good, some bad...some just...WTF o.O BIG changes, big events, and school just adds to it all. History tests? French cramming!? Yup, school is great. Bottom line- my life's crazy, and I'm just playing along with it ;)

Enjoy. <3 br="" nbsp="">


Heart erupting with heat
Flames scorching into rage
Swallowing shallow tears
As I slowly turn the page

Chapter one is over
That episode is done
I have felt what I have felt
Now Chapter two has begun

So, guess what, I may be a little crazy
Though that's an understatement, I must say...
But, guess what, I'm still alive
And I was nothing but myself today

The scribbled pages in life
They keep on going
Like blood spewing through the vein
New emotions keep on flowing

Ink clots stain the paper
Bruises every now and then
It is abolutely pleasant
To know it will never happen again

This pen, it keeps on writing...
My thoughts expressed in rhyme
As I repeat moronic mistakes
Time after time after time

We Pretend

We pretend that we'll live forever That tomorrow will bring something better We pretend we're not made of stars As we roam the streets and bars We pretend we'll never die That our kids won't ever cry Over the loss that is our end Every student, teacher, friend Everyone we've ever known Has a constellation they call home When the moon comes out at night I look to them to see the light To all those who did pretend That their story would never end But on some nights, breezy and clear I see the stars and they feel near I can grasp one and hold it in my hand As it takes me to another land We pretend this earth is all there is to see Yet the stars and crickets have spoken to me We pretend we'll never die Because we truly won't To someone's eye

Miles Away

I refuse to sell my heart, not for twenty-five cents The auction is closed, ladies and gents I’ve already sold my eyes, when they caught sight of the streets So now everyone can see the beauty of my Italian retreat I sold my tongue for gelato, feeling so young Letting the wild berries dance around on my tongue I sold my feet when I traveled to see our Holy Mother in gold Like a saint on a mission, I’ll walk until I get old I sold my ears when I heard beautiful Aida open her lips Echoing through the theatre in which the ancients used to sit But I won’t sell my heart, it is still free For my heart belongs to God and not really to me My heart aches for home, too many miles away Yet for now I am here and I will live for today Yes, I sold my eyes to Italy; it’s all I can see How I wish you were here seeing these treasures with me I’ll try to buy back my sight, taste, and ears too So that I’ll be able to share these memories with you

On the Origin of Love

So, I was researching something that I learned in literature class today (because that is what I like doing on Friday nights). We recently read the screenplay Hedwig and the Angry Inch and one song in particular really intrigued me- "The Origin of Love." What is the origin of love? Here is a summary of Hedwig's song, based on Aristophanes' mythological philosophy that is mentioned in Socrates' Symposium.  (Oh yay, story time!) Well, a long time ago, there were three sexes: the men (of the sun), the women (the earth) and the androgynous (the moon). Each sex had two heads and four legs, etc. and they were very powerful. The gods became angry with the strength of these sexes, so Zeus cut the people in half with lightning bolts. Therefore, it is now in our nature to seek  a sort of completion. Meaning, we have intrinsic desires for love and sex and finding "our other half" (as cheesy as it sounds, this is exactly what Aristophanes meant). Of course, this c...
