Look ma, no heart.

I hardly think of you anymore.
But then again, I hardly think anymore.

Miscreant
I spend my days on the road
Always looking ahead
In this vagrant world I live
I suppose I’m better off dead
But on long nights of garish hope
I climb the twisting stars
Recalling outlived vintage dreams
Around the edges, they’re charred
So, I'm another year older.
And nothing’s changed.

You see I’m fond of betrayal
Almost as much as manipulation
Don’t come trusting me
Without stone cold stipulations

That night, a forest grew
In a cold place
Forgotten by the light
And animals and maybe cannibals
Screeched and called
To the storm that would come
And the park was quiet
But if you listened you could
Hear the pangs of a place once wild
And how it longed to be free again
On the interstate there is a café
Alone on an exit that no one can find
And in the café stood a man
Empty-handed
He is the...
You are everything I'd imagined.

I am the girl with the eating disorder in your gym class. I’m always alone. It’s like people think bulimia is a disease that can spread, or maybe people think that the sick girls don’t need friends. It’s not true. I’m lonely. You’ve never spoken to me. I am someone else’s problem, someone else’s charity case. It’s okay, I wouldn’t want to...

The Next Train
I am a butterfly not yet free,
I am a book not yet opened,
I am a star too far away to see clearly,
I am waiting for the next train.

Remember when I used to care?
God, I’m glad that phase is over.

Why do I always make myself feel so tragically...
I’m really not that bad. Really. I’m just being completely melodramatic, as usual. It’s normal for my age, to think I’m absolutely horrible in unique ways and more so than anybody else, but that doesn’t make it any more right. It’s stupid. It’s immature. I’ve done some good things, but I just shove them aside to stare at the bad things I’ve...

Toxic imperfection
They all had perfectly perfect teeth
And would talk about football games and Stanford Law
And how Jesus guided them
Sometimes I would prop my eyes open with toothpicks
And they never noticed
But they saw straightaway when my eyeliner smudged
When there was a hair out of place
Because every perfect boy needs a perfect girl
And I’d always been good at pretending
So I would fix my...

My phobia
My biggest fear is myself. What I’ll do, but even more so what I won’t do.

Sometimes it’s nice, being invisible.
Nobody asks questions you can’t answer.

Alphabet Soup
Too many secrets, jumbled together inside me
The words crawl around in my mouth like deformed caterpillars
The F’s and K’s scratching and clawing
All press on my tongue, dying to be heard
They want the attention they know they’ll receive
They all push to the front and form a mosh pit
Til I swallow back the lump they’ve formed
That dispells the words, throws them into...

I travel alone
Nothing you say
Will go in my mind
I am a girl dancing on wind
Traversing through time
Feeling may stream
Through my bones
But I disregard it
For I travel alone
And here is a warning
Though I have said as much
Don’t reach for me
You’ll find nothing to touch

I write to find myself,

Just another story, just another girl
Once upon a time, at an inconsequential time in an inconsequential place, born to inconsequential people, a little girl came into this world. Make no mistake—there was nothing remarkable about her. She was not very beautiful. She was not very kind-hearted. She was not very intelligent. She was not very much anything, really. And she was fine. Just like all the other little girls. Skipping...

If you have the ability to create something, brilliant and wonderful, why wouldn’t you? Why would you settle for doing anything less?
I guess most people don’t make sense to me, that’s all.
