I was standing moments away from saving grace, and saving face, I heard that whole chorus of angels sing, down below, above my head. When your voice shocked open these heavy eyelids, I forgot how to cry. I forgot how much I had wanted to die. You lift me up with your laugh. You clear […]
I had written it on two strips of paper, Torn off and skewed away from yesterday, From everything, From all those words I say to pretend that I’m okay, With everything, And every win aint just another loss. That’s what I thought you spoke of when you said to toughen up. Oh up and up […]
I used to think life was so complicated. Stuck between the safety of the past and the bulk of the great unknown. Oh, but it’s really all so simple, you know,? oh, you know. If I made you a telescope that saw out past the moon and right past Mars, out to those other molten […]
I told myself I would cease this unseemly behavior, but I just can’t help myself. You prop me up from coward to savior. The world ain’t so rough when I’m with you. If I could sail past this soul-bonded favor, I might just get by fine. But I don’t see a life that’s worth living, […]

Entry 13,671 I expected to either cease to exist or be in some sort of eternal torment at the time I am writing this, but instead I am here in bed, my dear daughter and cat both curled up beside me, sleeping a peaceful sleep. This is the award for betraying a god. Perhaps I […]
I, I’m a new kind of a life. I’m a twisted reality, A shadow of the sun. And this, This illusion is twice as strong as you’ve ever seen. And you were all fools for believing along, ‘Cause It was all a mirage. Give it up, let it go. There is a life to be […]
I want to be a bumblebee, And bumble every day. I want to be a bumblebee, And bumble life away. I want to bumble to my left, and bumble to my right. Bumble straight up, and bumble back down. Gonna bumble my way into the Bumble Crown. As the queen of bumbles, my bumbles will […]
