It never took too much to love you
You were blue beneath a sunset sky
It never took too much to listen
Poetry like blood through your veins
You didnt know how much I missed you
And static voice messages left untouched
On cell phone records from phone calls
Made from sitting on the bathroom floor
Grime and dirt becoming permanent
Beneath your finger tips that once held mine
Like my heart that had once held yours
Like the grime missed your clean fingers.
We, that is, you and I, are stuck in a limbo of our age.
We want to be where were not, and where were not is with each other
Wanting to be anywhere we are together, which,
When were together, is everywhere we are
But preferring, above all, the comfort of rumpled sheets on squeaky beds
Rooftops, parks, empty houses, and borrowed coffee-stained couches
The struggle between freedom and independence,
The desire to be together but lack of company
Making the yearning, the incessant want and need more desperate
The hunger for a touch, a taste, a whisper in the dark,
An itching to see the other that simply is not, because
Yours to borrow, yours to keep
To have and to hold, to break or bury
Take my heart, to wear around your neck, or to
Keep on a string, every word you say to me
Our love's the sweetest thing
Heart so free, hey
You wanna run away with me?
Weve got no reason, if you want, I'll stay
Id pull every star out of the sky for you babe
Cant be okay as long as youre away
Love what you do when you do it
And look right through me
Search my soul for the answers but theyll..
Hope they lead back to me
Done being alone, having known your touch
Knowing theres something too live for
Oh is it to much to ask that
Were so used to having to get by
We live our lives from one okay moment to the next
Deluding ourselves into thinking that were happy
Because when were okay, when we get by
When we get by, living our pretty little lives
Hiding pain, blood and tears behind happy faces
Being okay, alrite, dandy, happy, fine,
Is enough.
It becomes enough.
And okay means not having to fight the dark clouds that hang perpetually
In the smallest corners of our minds
But why should we settle
Why should we cheat ourselves of true happiness
If such a thing exists
Why do we get up fighting and go down fighting
Why is it that
If you give me a chance if you give us a chance Ill spend the rest of my life trying to prove to you that it was right, this is right. The loudest I Love Yous are the ones that go unsaid, and I swear, if in all of history theres a story better than ours, Ive never heard it. Years go by, and time rips apart fragile love at the seams, but against all odds, we meet, and the ties that hold us close wont sever. I hope you know that I never meant it, any of it, and I didnt want to, I was so tired, it wasnt worth it, but I stopped fighting. Can I just say that it was the worst day of my l
Wont you please tell me what youre thinking
Im scared to know that Im always on your mind
(Did you know that youre always on mine?)
Fear (n.) is but a bodys response
To dangers both tangible and unrealistic
ie. I fear that you wont love me [like you say you do]
Trust (n.) is knowing that I have given you every tool
To destroy every little part of me thats left
Every little thing that you helped build up.
Beauty (n.) is in the eye of the beholder
But I swear baby, you set the standard
Behind every great love exists a great story,
but we have one for the books.
A ballet exists

Same Sex Marriage is GAY.
Same Sex Marriage.
Objective: You will be engaged in an in-depth study of same sex marriages. This project will involve research and the result will be an argument presented in the form of a debate.
Viewpoint: AGAINST.
Arguments:
1. Homosexuality is not natural.
Much like eyeglasses, cesarean sections, birth control and painkillers are not natural.
2. The purpose of marriage is to procreate.
Therefore, sterile males, women that cannot bear children, the elderly, infirm, and infertile CANNOT be married.
3. Living with gay parents will adversely imp
Maybe some girls just aren't meant to be tamed.
Maybe you can't tie down a wild animal and still retain that mystical yet terrifying beauty
that things of such a nature tend to have.
Maybe you just have to let them run wild,
until they find someone as wild as they are
who can run alongside them
And perhaps it'll be a completely different beauty
But still beautiful, nonetheless.
The worst part is that the world keeps on spinning
{{even though he's gone}}
People stop crying
Midterms week will come and go
And people will get wrapped up in their own lives again
And when everyones forgotten
When nobody can put a face to a name
Then what?
Do we keep on living,
Reckless, without pause,
Until the next tragedy occurs?
How many lives need to be lost before the world realizes what its done?
Or do we keep on living blindly
Go on numb
Forgetting those before us
Loved ones fading
Like the remains of a black and white photograph
Thats been through the wash one too many times
Nev
i got scared.
like a child ;
i crawled under a blanket
i turned and ran like I had somewhere to go.
I wish I did:
your arms.
I could never have been able to give you what he does
or be -that- guy for you
or maybe Im just making excuses
again
as will always be my way
we shouldnt have ended
like that; I know you know
we were always destined for something
more than each other
i i couldnt let you watch me hurt you
again, not again
i promised you
babygirl
never again
i had to do it
last night; i wish i could have had a dance
i feel like i never stopped wishin
Crash and Burn -Into Me- by jennifishie, literature
Literature
Crash and Burn -Into Me-
Do we
Screech,
As we crash like we burn
As our hearts ache
With passion / Well pull something beautiful
Out of this disaster
Oh youre so beautiful
When youre a disaster
So wont you lie in the wake
Of disaster with me
We can crash
In each others arms and lie
Awake
...together
Until the waves of the world
Come // Crashing
Onto we...
Inbetween life and sleep
That places where only dreams exist
Where two hearts can beat as one
And many as nothing at all
That place where you are always found
Where the lost always just seems to pop up
The place you see behind your eyelids whilst you dream
We can drift down the river of lost hopes
As they pull us away from the reality we once recognised as our home
When tears become the start of little miracles
And love can pave a new world.
That's where I'll always be waiting for you
Do not the truest of friends share a part of their soul
A kind that lovers cannot?
Only they...
-those lovers that seek more than just love; for they share in loyalties too-
...share beyond the conditions
Of what lovers call unconditional.
Theirs is a love you cannot shake.
The love you seek with lovers, is
Shallow as the love you make.
The truth that burns and the lies that you fake
The masks that you wear
As you hide yourself from the world
Melt away
The best friends make the truest lovers
But lovers can they not be called
For lovers lie and true love dies
And brings out their faults.
Trying to find beauty in the disaster...
One last hope among ruins.
Life's ambition?
To find an ambition
Worthy of more than 3 quick senconds past
To find a life worth more than living
Vicariously
Through everything that has never moved
Beauty that is fleeting
An attempt to make it stay
But still, I hold you yet
And if in a second passed
I can find a star as captivating as you
I won't
let go
Forever.
Our goodbye will be the last few words on our resume.
This is where we lie, pressed together
for a few more moments, eyes on eyes,
knowing if we look away -- if those shared
eyes glance away -- that the act of love
is over. We're over. Even though we agree on separating,
we hold each other for a few moments more.
So we might comfort one another.
To know our choice is logical. Correct.
One of us will stand,
wondering what to say and do exactly next.
And we won't know. Just like I don't
know how to start again with another --
I'm 33 and the age of beginnings feels far passed.
I say, "You are," Gone. "...amazing."
She says, "We both are."

Day of Silence
April 25, 2008
Because Silence
Speaks Louder Than
Words
As I walk my half of a heterosexual couple down the street,
people don’t even blink in my direction.
My silence goes unnoticed because my sexuality is assumed.
For anyone who's ever been silent...
Spread the Know
http://www.dayofsilence.org/
Wha will YOU do to end the silence?
