Tonight, I lean on my window pane
I feel tears streak down my cheeks
Try as I might, night after night, insane
Love evades me so I just weep

I feel my soul kick inside me, as if to tell me I am real
Losing it all so no one will find you; morning is breaking like steel

And in the quietest depths of that
Which brings your essence peace
Not for the darkest, biggest trap
That sorrow falls to never cease

But in one's heart, a soldier: a spirit true and just and plain
Toils away his bitterest hours,
Sour, and beguiling, in vain

The barren road upon which the soldier treads
Stretches out in all its wonder,
Masking light and throwing it asunder,
With fear and awful dread.

What Happened When I Went 2+ Weeks Without Makeup

-
It's been driving me crazy lately how random people online feel free to tell me that I wear too much makeup. STOP there. Why don't I tell them that they have too many tattoos? Or too much facial hair? "Your beard is outta control, seriously just cut it."  I don't tell anyone how they should look or if I have a problem with how they look, it's just that-- MY problem and not something I need to tell them to change to make me happy. Yet, guys (so far, never girls) have told me I should wear less makeup, or not wear makeup at all. Men of the world: if you like women, hey even just have any respect for self-expression at all, let your personal opinion on makeup not be made known. I didn't ask you? You don't tell me. Simple. However, a couple of years ago at work, I basically stopped caring what I looked like. I had been at the job for almost three years and had given up. I reached burnout and wanted to quit. They had been scheduling me on the morning shift ...

On The Sunny Side Of The Street

Writing is very important. You release your thoughts in your writing, and your thoughts are very vulnerable things to reveal...they're uniquely you, and although other people may share things that pop into your brain as well, nobody else knows what you are thinking but you. Thoughts are things; you can't see them but they're just as powerful as anything tangible. What you repeatedly think, you come to believe, your beliefs become your values, and these are essential to you. Remember, when you're going through your busy, or not-so busy day, how important it is to think before you speak. As Craig Ferguson said, "Does this need to be said?" Words can cut figuratively speaking and hurt just as badly as a cut from a knife. "Sticks and stones can break bones, but words can break hearts." (Tim Minchin) So just as you're careful (hopefully) with what you say, you also need to be mindful of what you think. I've heard that it's something like 50,00...

Love & only love

-
When my heart is feeling cold, When my soul is growing old, Tell me you're the one I've told: "I love you without reason" There is no need for me to have There is only love and love is mad. You can win your dreams or lose it bad; I dream, I won you When my heart tips upside down, When my smile has left to frown, I'm nothing if you're not around — Love will not be lost And when my days feel all anew, When my thoughts are coming through, Don't let me forget the best view: Love and only love. Poem by me 1yr ago today. :)
