so many times
i've been told
what a beautiful soul
i posses
and for every time
i've smiled inside
for every time
i've warmed right up
with love
and joy
and pure disbelief
for i never could understand
how a troubled soul
like mine
could be so beautiful
but now i see
the trade-off

the beautiful souls
are so easy for you
to push away
to shove aside for later

'cause the beautiful souls
will try so long
to understand why
and nod and smile
and say "it's okay,
i understand,
you're a busy person"

but even the beautiful souls
finally give up
that understanding nature
and break down and cry

lonely.

    Yup, I've been there. Sometimes the ability to forgive and/or understand is a curse.

    But...hang in there! For every person who treats you like shit, there are three people to appreciate your goodness.
    I wish I was a Democrat
    One that had a chance to win
    I wish I was a Republican
    But would I be a human being?

    i hear you cry
    your tears are cheap
    wet hot red swollen cheeks
    fall alseep
    i want to hurt him
    i want to give him pain
    i'm a roman candle
    my head is full of flames
    i want to hurt him
    i want to hurt him
    i want to hurt him
    i want to give him pain
    and make him feel this pretty burn
    The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway, is that its you, and that you're standing in the doorway.

    I write down good reasons to freeze to death in my spiral ring notebook. But in the long tresses of your hair--I am a babbling brook.
