Tell The Truth!

edited November 2006 in Poetry, Prose, Music & Art
Fuck it I don’t always know what to say
The beauty is not always there
I am not a child wearing a mask to fit in
This is I

Full of hopes and dreams mixed with hate and
Contempt for my fellows
I play the actor on a stage where everyone
Wants to be the star

Look up assholes the stars are in the sky
The mirror tells our story good and bad
Are you a lover today or just another
Fucker trying to defraud some love

Can you look in the mirror and say
“I love you.” Furthermore, not feel arrogant about it
If not go back to bed you fuckhead
And save all the other actors some grief
Can't you see that there's light in the dark.
Nothing's quite what it seems in the city of dreams.

    to answer the question asked. no i can't.


    and you know giving them grief is my amusement. :p but then again i could stay in bed all day.
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    Thats so unlike you, miss cate
    Can't you see that there's light in the dark.

    I think I see a piece of curry chicken stuck in your teeth :D

    I look in the mirror this morning
    And want to vomit
    It is not that I don’t love myself
    My love shines through (some times)
    I think it is due to the box of cracked
    Pepper and olive oil triscuits I ate last night
    Can't you see that there's light in the dark.
    Nothing's quite what it seems in the city of dreams.

    miror poem:

    i watched you from behind
    from the bed
    while you looked
    yourself over
    in the mirror

    it's a fixation with you
    and you glanced
    at me looking
    at you then
    in the mirror

    your expression didn't change
    since you knew
    i accepted
    that person
    in the mirror

    you watch your face and mine
    for small clues
    and nuances
    of the truth
    in the mirror

    sometimes looking at you
    is a vortex
    a spinning trip
    and so perfect
    in the mirror

    but as soon as you turn around
    we're confronted with
    being real as we can
    with you still longing
    and me still pining
    for more looking at you
    like a crazed alice
    or a staring zelda
    or a curios georgina

    fuck, i love you

    no no no. cate doesn't dig arrogance.
    in fact she will crush it beneath her feet until something breaks. :(
