Zig-Zags and Tye-Dyes

all time
different kind
same time
not all mine
illustrating sublime
sounds of chime
no more time
it's a sign
wouldn't pay a dime
warn out overtime
should be a crime
smells of daytime
-ugly piece
you left here when you decided to leave!

Back To Your Old Habits Again Too?

Inside of me 
there's this pain
that i can't cry out
-a new habit
i figure i'll try out

Lessons We Are Meant To Teach At Some Point

Were we naive or were we smart?
Were we overprotective or just safe?
Were we in love or horny?
 
These questions are asked by the “grown ups”,
 the “hags”, 
the “just-out-to-ruin-your-lives”, 
the people who cared the most for us. 

The people who don’t want us making the same mistakes they did.

Love, Mom

when i woke up and saw the note
laying on my end table
i wished so hard that when i flipped it over
that when i flipped it over
the name on the back following
the message and love
wasnt "mom"

But again i'm alone and again
i got slapped
right across where i did just the last
time that
i thought somebody
maybe just anybody
was thinkin of me
and considering caring 'bout me.

Again i wake up but this time i see you
right across where id seen you before
and you told me bout your thoughts 
and you told me what happened
and how we couldn't be seeing eahc other anymore

And im right back where i started 
all over again
bleeding again
from these eyes of pain
and mending again
these scars of the past
that will never fade away,
you will never fade away


when i woke up and saw the note
laying on my end table
i wished so hard that when i flipped it over
that when i flipped it over
the name on the back following
the message and love
wasn't you

Betrayer

I am the betrayer
i hold my head down
away from life and light that may seek to see me
I am ashamed with myself
and all that i did
for i went against the one person,
i betrayed the one person,
who will never forgive me:
Myself.
I betrayed my heart and my soul and my mind and my conscience
i threw all of them away
when i told the rest of me it was okay
I ignored the only person i could trust
and left it in the dust
i now have to clean it up
oh, how stupid young love makes us.
It was I who left this mess for me to deal with,
when he left.
Now i can either sweep it under the rug
or let it haunt my heart and my soul and my mind and my consience forever
like i so deserve.
What more can i say,
I am the betrayer of all that has betrayed.

Friends

Your old sleeveless cut-off
is still hanging on my doorknob
and when she came over
yesterday
we both saw it
-kind of awkward actually
-kind of funny actually
she stuttered,
trying to make things right between us
I didn't say much
poor,poor girl
Doesn't she remember how
bad you treated me?

Last Summer

So i finally took the time
to sit down and have a good cry.
And i finally took the time
to realise that good friends
really aren't good friends at all.

And i found myself lonely in a room full of people.

Because you can spend your hwole life
thinking you know what will happen
but in reality its never what we thought it was.

Because noone is ever like they were last summer,
and noone's ever telling the truth.
Noone's ever really there for you,
and there's never really a right thing to do.

Reasons

Slowly forgetting your number
All those nights scarse of slumber,
but slightly starting to remember,
staying up all night thinking of you.

Quickly remembering how great that feeling was,
and telling you i love you
just because.
-trying to forget actually meaning it.

Nobody really understands 
the meaning of the saying,
"love is blind"
untill it mases you in the eye
and runs away without explaining.

But, you know i've been struggling 
to remember what i saw in you.
but never forgetting 
why i hated you,
in the first place.

And now,
you're doubting why you left,
while i'm finally agreeing with your reasons.
