and never find things out for ourselvez
once again body worn eyez restless mind racing i find myself with thoughtz. thoughtz that i wish i could understand. the hopeless romantic the last of a dying kind i don't get it. why is it that we accept these so called love storiez in the entertainment knowing that it is not true yet we long for our livez to mirror? i have found love but because i am barely more than human at this point i fucked up. i nearly lost it completely. no my life is not a pretty fairy tale or a lovely story. i'm not even going to try and make it that. it is my life that i choose to live my way. we wait expecting thingz to just happen for us for our fairy godmotherz to come and grant our every whimz. this is the point at which i think we need a reality check. have we grown that out of touch that we long for something that cannot be? i am not condemning romanticism but simply pointing out that too often we expect what is not achievable. maybe i'm wrong that it is possible to have the perfect love story. i would be beyond thrilled to see it and to see success. until then i'm going to be more than i ever thought was possible and accept my namesake.
i have the infamy
notoriety is only a token more
what i long for is the peace
to see the end of the war

The Picture
i want to paint a picture with this paint, such a vibrant and rich color. itz not right though. this crimson, though beautiful is not my cobalt. the sketch that livess in my mind, only one color rules supreme. such a deep, royal, heartwrenching shade. maybe, i can try and make it look right. moving my hands to the canvas, angling my wrist jus right i begin. a lil bit here, a dash there. maybe this line..............no. dammit no no no. what is this? this isn't what i wanted. this hurts, this is wrong. who's hand is that? why..i don't understand. the color matches perfectly, but the rose? it shouldn't be alone. it is never alone. not in......fuck. how did this happen? it should not have gone this way. now i can't stop it, and though the picture is gorgeous it shows all the emotions i didn't want. how does one even do this? itz.................the blood, the pain, the rose. it all comes together and now i see it.
who knew, someone so beautiful could be so ugly
who thought, a being so bright could dim itself

Thrice
so cold yet inviting. i cannot resist her. harsh though she soothes your painz. she'll talk to you all day yet you can't hardly get a word in. care to explain to me why? why we put ourselves through it time and time again? because you know that even when it seemz pointless you know it will go nowhere you hold out the slight hope that maybe it can be something more. one night stands are just outlets for faulty searches unjustified loneliness longing for acceptance. in the short moments we spend in the throes of passion we know it will end far before we are ready yet we continue to subject ourselves to it. we keep false hope in the thought that it will somehow last. it was said that every man dies alone. are we scared? yes. scared to fucking death of that thought. keep trying if you think you have what it takes. but realize both must want it or it won't ever be anything. holding back only keeps you in the same place no matter how much you might want to move on.
Best of You

How I Feel
You said tonight is a wonderful night to die.
I asked you could tell, you told me to look at the sky.
Look at all those stars, look at how goddamn ugly the stars are.
I wanted to deserve a place
A place beside you
This time when I reached out my hand
It reached all the way to heaven
I don't deserve to have you...
My smile was taken long ago / If I can change I hope I never know
I still press your letters to my lips
And cherish them in parts of me that savor every kiss
I couldn't face a life without your light
But all of that was ripped apart... when you refused to fight
So save your breath, I will not hear. I think I made it very clear.
You couldn't hate enough to love. Is that supposed to be enough?
I only wish you weren't my friend. Then I could hurt you in the end.
I never claimed to be a Saint...
That's when I told her I love you girl
But I'm not the answer for the questions that you still have
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
The perfect words never crossed my mind,
Cause there was nothin' in there but you.
I felt every ounce of me screaming out,
But the sound was trapped deep in me.
All I wanted just sped right past me,
While I was rooted fast to the earth,
I could be stuck here for a thousand years,
Without your arms to drag me out.
There you are standing right in front of me
There you are standing right in front of me
All this fear falls away to leave me naked,
Hold me close, cause I need you to guide me to safety.

And It All Comes Crashing Down
Whether we realize it or not
(And for the most part, we do notice it)
We have turning points in our lives
That we have complete and total control over
Of what happens and where it goes from there.
People try to say that this pinnacles are created from the actions of us
But that it also is affected by those in our lives.
I don't agree with this though
I feel as if we have control
That at no point do we lose it
We may give it up
It may seem that things are out of our grasp
Yet it's not

Sweet Dreams My Dear
His parents worry about him immensely, but know naught what to do. Doctors find no reason that he should act so, apart from being severely shy. The parents doubt this though, for when he was younger he was a talkative playful child. He loved meeting new people, and his copper eyes would light up every time he laughed or merely smiled. Now, he never smiles and no form of emotion is visible looking into his once joyous eyes. As far as they knew, there was not anything that had brought upon this change, aside from one morning they found him in the corner and other than answering "Bad dreams" he gave no explanations.
Despite numerous attempts, his teachers would quickly get frustrated with him, finding every time they would avert attention from him he would be out of his desk and back in a far-off corner like lightning. Children being children, his classmates were greatly perturbed by his behavior. They would question him incessantly about why he always went to the corner, but alas, he would just look at them for a moment, considering what they had said, and shake his head.
These actions continued all through elementary, middle, even into high school. Avion was not small or frail, being one of the taller boys all through school. He was not underweight, nor fat and there was no indication of bullying. Sometimes students would talk in whispers about him, though it always fell silent when he would look in the direction of the noise.
Avion attracted more attention than he seemed to desire. For the mysterious actions of the copper eyed, slate haired boy seemed to entrance all the females of his high school. They desperately wanted to know what made him so, but mostly for fear of him, none approached him.
One day, the day no one could ever forget, things changed. As suddenly as he began sitting in the corner, he was an average student. He came into the classroom, sat at his desk and paid attention, even going so far as to converse with some of his fellow students. No one could figure out why he had altered so drastically, so quickly. At lunch he was nowhere to be found, but reappeared as if nothing happened in the next class. Strangely enough though, he was gone again during the last period of the day.
Before the bell dismissed everyone, the intercom came on. "Will all the students please check their lockers before leaving today, and teachers look in the top drawer of your desk. Thank you."
Immediately the students were pouring into the hallways, chattering amongst each other wondering what was going on. To all of their amazement, each locker contained a folded piece of paper. In it, in simple crude writing, it contained their name, birthdate, a date in the past with something pivotal that had happened to the person, and another date in the future telling something that would happen. The teachers all had similar notes.
Except for one boy, Brian Black. In his note, it simply read, "You must be stopped. It ends here."
As students walked out of the school, people noticed Avion sitting calmly on the brick wall surrounding the flagpole. He said nothing until Brian walked out, still looking at his note. Then he stood and said, "Brian you must be stopped. It ends here." With that, he produced a pistol from his back pocket and shot Brian in the chest two times, killing him instantly.
Later that day, at the police station being questioned by his parents and the police as to why he did it, Avion explained, "He was going to cause much more bloodshed than I did." Upon investigating Brian's house and room, it was discovered he had obtained multiple guns and planned to kill numerous classmates the next day.
When asked how he knew, Avion said, "It wasn't bad dreams I was having. It was visions."
One by one, everything he had written in the notes came true.

A New Beginnning
And then they never seem to happen
Like all the timez I have said that I was going to change
Or that I was going to help someone out
Yeah, never really happened.
Not sure why
I think I had jus gotten way too comfortable in the way that I was living
Anywho
Thatz finished
The old me is dead
Deceased
Gone
I have posted more than a few blogs talking about how I was fed up with shit and what not
But this time
I'm already changed
Itz already happening
And will continue to happen
I've hurt a lot of people in the past
Intentional and not
That is done
The only reason/way that I will hurt people is if I plan and want to do it
For too long I've cared about jus myself
And spurned people that cared about me
But I'm realizing more about myself
I have more strength than I had thought
So from here out
Itz gonna be different
For all the people that have let me borrow money
I will pay you back in full
If not with interest
All those that have helped me
I am going to help in return
Anyone who has cared about me and what happens
I care about them
To those that love me
I have learned how to love in return
There once was a man
No scratch that
There once was a male
For he was not a boy
But he didn't know what it took to be a man yet
He was cared about
Though he didn't know how to care
People looked up to him
Even though he looked up to no one
There were those that respected him
Although he had respect for none
Many people helped and tried to help him
But he never helped them in return
Everyone was alwayz there for him
Yet he wasn't anywhere to be found for anyone
He was a good person
But he didn't know how to be good
His life contained more than enough responsibilities
For some reason he could not be responsible

Magnolia Tree
Sitting down next to him, he spoke without looking up. "I wrote you a song," his voice calm and clear.
Her face lit up instantly. He's never written anything for me, she thought. Played me songs, but never anything original specifically for me. Maybe itz good after all.
"Before you say anything though, I just want you to listen." He looked at her with an intensity she'd never seen before. Lifting his guitar, he started to play.
This song is not to cry to
I don't want to see your tears
Despite what you think
This is just what you need to hear
Sometimes life isn't perfect
And things will go wrong
Even as we try
It can only be ignored for so long
This time tomorrow
I will be gone away
This will be hard
But it's the only way to say
I loved you
And care about you still
Sadly people change
I no longer feel
This song is not to cry to
I don't want to see your tears
Despite what you think
This is just what you need to hear
When he stopped, she just looked at him, tears streaming down her face. He stood and turned, but she grabbed his hand.
"But Jeremy-"
"Stop." He interrupted. "This is good-bye. Let's leave it at that."
With that he left, leaving her sitting there under the magnolia tree.

Welcome
If you are reading this, my friend
Then I welcome you
For you are about to start a journey
One that will change you
I will warn you though
That it will not be easy
At times you’ll feel great
Not having a care in the world
You won’t want the feeling to go
But it won’t last
There will be time of pain
Feelings of grief will be overwhelming
Anger will consume you at times
You’ll think there’s nothing left
So you’ll try to end it all
Hoping to ease the ache
Though you want to
You won’t be able to go through
Some people won’t make it to the end
Because this journey is so hard
It takes its toll
But if you keep going
And not stop giving your all
You’ll make it
I should know
Since this is my life

Never ignore your feelings
On this damn pleather couch
If it weren't for my mom
I wouldn't have to deal with this
But as is, I'm stuck listening
To some fool, lecture me about my feelings
The daydreaming had almost started when he asked
What is on your mind?
I sat there for a minute, and then responded
Well, it feels like people are always keeping secrets from me
He looked up at me and sat his notepad down in his lap
I have something to confess
I had sex with your mother, on that very couch
I jumped up so fast, filled with disgust and rage
Walking towards him
He told me to calm down, that he was sorry
I turned around and took a couple of deep breaths
Like he had instructed me so many times before
Then I beat his goddamn face in
Stepping out, Mom asked how it went
Pretty good I replied
I think I'm making progress

I've fallen in love with an angel
right now
The first thing I have to say is that you are more than enough for me. I am stunned continuously by your beauty. I could never even begin to see the depths of how smart you are. I have had more fun with you than anyone else. To say that you are exciting and fun would be a vast understatement. No one has ever been for me through all of my shit like you have. Giving you every single part of me is only a fraction of what you have given me. I wish that I could even begin to match what you have done for me.
You are, without a doubt, the greatest girlfriend I have ever had and that anyone could ask for. Your love is more than I could ever, ever deserve.
I will agree. A kiss is cheating. It is wrong. In more ways than I would have been willing to admit years ago, a year ago, a month ago. But now I realize. You cannot hold anything back, at all, if you want or expect a relationship to work out. Especially a long term one.
I know that you have had more chances than one could count to do to me like I did to you. You could easily have any guy that you want. It brings me to tears to think that you have been faithful to me through all of this, yet I was the uncaring, selfish prick to do something like this. Many people would never think to do the small gesture of asking things about doing things with other people, even if it is just a friend spending the night or trying to prove that something was a fluke. I cannot even start to understand how you can be so thoughtful and caring. I am working to be able to mirror that, and quit thinking of just one person.
You are my number one priority. Now and always. I agree, it should have been that way all along. I will say that I did not have my priorities in order, and that I did not fully comprehend what was important to me. Now i realize, and I hope that it is not too late to fix it.
This ring holds in me everything. All of my thoughts, dreams, hopes, failures, losses, tears, nightmares, and shame. It burns my skin to have to wear it again like this. It is not that I don't want to wear it, but to have to keep it in my possession on these terms it feels like a sentence. A reminder of what I have done wrong, and now what I am going to become to right it all. I want to give it back, but I also know that I need to wait until it is ready to be bestowed upon another.
I love you more than my life itself

Memories
Some bring us such a happy feeling and can lift our spirits for dayz
While other timez it can bring us to such a low point, we wonder why we continued on
The worst are the memories that can do both to us.
Growing up, I have some truly fond memories of my father.
Dayz that we would spend at the park, practicing my baseball skillz
Evening when we would go in the driveway and play basketball
To this day I still laugh when i think of the time my dad went into the middle of the street and shot the ball. When it went in, he was as shocked as I was.
The many times we went to Six Flags, or to baseball games.
Just the two of us having a good time.
Anytime that I had a sporting event, he would find a way to be there.
I like to look back every once in a while and think about those times.
But then, itz hard to think about it
I get upset, angry, sad
All sorts of messed up
It makes me think of how despite the few good memories that i had of him
He was almost never around
I rarely saw him
Practically grew up without a father
Or all the promises that he made me
To just go and break them
It hurts, a lot.
Sadly, thatz not even the worst part.
The tears start to stream when I think about while we might have had those few good memories
We have no current ones.
The only time we ever talk
Is when we are pissed off at each other
Yelling and about to fight
The last thing that I can even remember us doing
Just the two of us
Would be standing outside smoking
In silence.......
For a lil side note, the latest of the fond memories of me and my father
Would be more than 5 years ago
3.29.2009
this was a text message......
You know i'm alwayz here and that i love you
itz somethin you have to do a lil bit at a time

Forgotten Responsibilities
i have a tendency to rant
a lot
itz not my fault
i jus have a lot on my mind, and need a way to vent/get it all out
this time though
itz a lot bigger than jus me
itz something that has irked me forever

2.25.2009
Here It Comes Again
But I'm bored. And I'm not talking about jus this moment in particular
I'm bored with life. Itz so.....
Lame. Like honestly, i don't think most people know how to reach their full potential or jus live the life made out for them
Itz to the point that i only feel right when i when certain people
Or doing certain thingz
I feel itz long past the point that i can come to termz with the way thingz are
I can't stand that
Itz time for a change
And they say that change startz in yourself
Which that meanz
Let the fun begin
2.24.2009
The Game is over. Goodbye
Mom
So this is long overdue, but better late than never
Thank you
You've done more than anyone could ask or expect, and i prolly don't show my appreciation as much as i should. You've gone through so much, and the fact you've stayed steady is amazing
But one thing....
Fuck your religion
To hell with your beliefz
I really don't care what you choose to follow or submit yourself to, but quit forcing it on me
I'm tired of it
Let me be me
Dad
Fuck
You
Ok, go to hell. You've done nothing but fuck my life up, and I'm tired of it. For a good portion of my life, i never saw you. You weren't around
But now, you see me and do nothing but bitch me out all the time
I used to try and do stuff for you. All i ever wanted to hear is that you were proud of me. Fuck that, I don't care anymore. Jus get out of my life
And know, if you ever touch me
You will regret it
Derian and Amanda
I'm sorry
I've put the two of you through hell, and i really have no reason to. Still, at this point, I'm not used to being an older brother. And you can prolly tell, i'm not a very good one at that. Maybe i can change before itz too late, but i know i can't change the past
Jus take this from me-don't let anyone control you or push you around
Kick their ass if they try
Chris
Dude, your fucking amazing. Your a great friend, better than anyone could ask for. You've done way too much for me, and i appreciate it. One day, I will find a way to pay you back for everything.
Do me one favor-grow some ballz. I hate to say it man, but you let people walk all over you. You got to change that. especially with Kaeli. If you want the relationship to work, last, and flourish, your gonna have to stand up for yourself. Quit making it seem like everything is your fault, cuz itz not
Kaeli
Thank you
But on the flipside of that
I'm sorry
You've been a great friend. We've had tonz of laughz, good timez, and you've helped me through so much shit. For that, your awesome
I jus wanna apologize for being such a shitty friend to you. I've put you through a lot, not too mention jus been a regular ass
So yeah, i thought i should tell you that
Meredith
Wow, here goes naught
This might take a bit
Your amazing
Handz down
I don't think you realize quite how much so, cuz your so hard on yourself. But you are a wonderful friend, have the best advice, extremely tenacious, you know what you believe in and don't back down
It all addz up to make one hell of a person
You jus need to stay strong and not give up. Thingz may be tough, and you may feel like everything is crashing in around you
But i'll be the first to say-shining through the hard timez it what makes us better, and being able to succeed in the toughest spots is what separates the failures in life, from the best
And you are mos def among the elite
Taylor
You already have what i said
