Something Changing

Decisions Made

my future
in one decision
i have set it in stone
in one swift move
i made my path known
after fear of not knowing
of where i should be
i came to the knowing
that finally i'm free
free to have chosen my way
and it be MY way
and MY future
that i decided today

One Year Ago Today [3-7-08]

One year ago today...
The world came crashing down
Our lives fell to pieces
But no one heard a sound

One year ago today...
All our strength disappeared
We fell into the dark
And started drowning in our fear

One year ago today...
Your truck flipped and crashed
And left me without the strength
To move on from the past

To Not Choose

i made my choice
and my choice was to not choose
what happens next
is not of my choosing
but merely a consequence
of my indecision
so be kind to my lack of choice
it was the only way
to not be forced between two goods
and instead be made to have ONE
and in that one, is my future
my future of wellbeing
and knowing that
i did not choose wrongly


(heh, i don't know what's up with my writing style lately... it's very much NOT structured... or rhyming all that much... hmm...)

Ecclesiastes In 4 Short Stanzas

O the poor men, they had no blankets
And it was meaningless under the sun
The wise were only chasing the wind
The meaningless wind, under the sun

O the poor men, with no one to lie down with
They were cold and under the sun
If only they had their blankets and meaning
They could chase folly under the sun

O the poor men, oppressed and freezing
With no folly to chase under the sun
Their oppressors left them with no blankets
With no comfort under the sun

And it was meaningless

Thanks for Everything

thanks for being there
when i had to go
for all of the comforting words
when i had no comfort to show

thanks for merely your contact
when i was alone
for lending me your spirit
while i drank in my deep sorrow

thanks for everything
you're a dear friend
for all the things you've done
for all the love you've sent

thanks for making me into a liar
for you never did those things
you fed me to the wolves
after cutting off my wings

Sanity's all about location, location, location.

: : Not so much a poem as a realization..: :


You never know how crazy you are
Until you can step out
And see yourself in a normal light
And once you get used to it,
Go back to the life you once lived
Test how long until you snap.
When taken away from the threat to your sanity,
Your endurance grows weak.
Becoming crazy is a simpler thing,
More threatening than ever before
Your once crazy is merely a joke
Your mind's state now is a death sentence
Once you can escape to the normal nonthreatening light,
Never turn around, never go back.

Only When I Had You

(song lyrics. maybe this marks the end of my writer's block. i sure do hope so)

i guess this is the end
of everything that we once knew
and now we're moving on
except i'm not moving anywhere
i'm stuck right here to wait for you
to turn around and laugh again
and tell me that you knew

you knew i'd be okay
you knew i had the strength to wake up everyday
especially when i had you
you knew i'd stand up strong
you knew i had the strength to make it on my own
but you never knew..

i guess this is the end
of my dreamless nights and wakeful eyes
my nightmares come right back

I Hate It

i hate this stupid world
and the place i have in it
i hate this stupid house
and the life that its finished

i hate this computer
so ragged, so slow
i hate all the things
that i do not know

i hate the way words
can bring a person to their knees
i hate that hearts
break so easily

i hate that people die
when theyre oh so young in age
i hate it when my book
is oddly missing a page
