she's developed a sort of drag to that certain spring in her step
following recommendations and directions of those met along the way
angry with the world based on the fate chosen
idiocy shone through without persuasion
slowly driving regret into angry insanity
happy to bring another soul down with them
communicate raspy information through rancid breathe
words tumble from poisenous tongues, sagging from unclean lips
bait for a girl too naive to see through fabricated smiles missing teeth
her heart too big not to yield her pursuit for each rotting being encountered
wreeking of madness and destruction to charm the sympathetic
cuttin
a pencil-etched heart trapping a five-letter sin
sadly mistaken for mispelled correlation
positively the rare sort of affection she had wished for
turned to scribbles and screams full of feeling
cheerful voice gone hoarse
rage taken out on whatever her wheels could cover
wasting breathes on a promise, broken like her skin
overcast with lies of possibilites and harmony
hole up the dissection with sticky black filling
habits to make capable the constant erasing
deleting the scribbles time and time again
forced disposal of the evidence
enabling another of her one too many chances
sketchy again because it needs time to perfect

a rude awakening all alone in someone else\'s bed
minimal clothing and the familiar scent of sexuality,
protecting dishonest aromas from being exposed,
from triggering that certain form of discomfort
a reason to set the alarm back and try again later
turn over, away from light peering through blinds
trapped behind glass as a sentence of not trusting,
having accused snooping among the innocent
twisted and tangled in blankets from dreams you can\'t recall
unable to find the hidden strength you found last night
reasons enough but no time to set the alarm back again
crawl out of bed, into clothing, out the door in one smooth, lazy moti
nearly thirty days without honest contact
--funny how lonliness counts for itself even after the wanting has gone--
agreements seen in movies force a smile and tops off my rebuilt self rather nicely
the adrenaline refuses to allow resting up needed for the next morning,
for which he arrived right on time.
wondering why you ever doubted his punctuality
as the doorbell reminds you why you\'re up and showered so soon,
the sole reason that directs a hand cautiously on the small of your back
subtle gesture to hurry up and begin all that was planned
yet awkward and almost painful as that palm shifts the glaze still waiting to be fired

they say this part is hardest by wastedemotion, literature
Literature
they say this part is hardest
sleeping as a medication
to fix that needing fixing
untie that which is bound
twelve hours but still wake up yawning
fresh glaze with a new breed of allergy
inconstant character to destroy the latest interior
viciously tear down the drapes
break the glass with no regret
spray-paint a threat on my wall
satisfaction as my pen name
veiling servitude to the utmost degree
emotional freedom seeming vast enough
sleeping as a medication
to unlock that needing freed
give life to that needing soul
courage to that with no assistance
seeking out approval
hopeful for encouragement
and while your eyes are tightly closed
tear down anoth
Open mouths.
Reaching hands.
Lips on flesh.
Hating me.
Wanting you.
But why?
You and me.
Perfection and defective.
You and me.
The flawless and the flaws.
You and me.
Complex and just confused.
Scars upon scars.
Fears upon fears.
Self hate upon fucking self hate.
I melt in your arms.
Awake from the dream just in time.
Bewildered.
Freeze.
A disappointment?
Scars upon scars.
A wall to break down?
Give up?
How do I ask?
Could I explain?
--what?
Believe your plea?
Trust your smile?
Take your word?
Sweet.
Kind and selfless.
Interested.
Affectionate.
Opposite of the past.
--But what if I count on you too?
Scars up
Deep, heavy breathes.
Perspiring then.
Skin upon skin.
And I'm yours.
I let you take me,
Here.
Whispers.
Gasps.
A moment to remember.
You never forget that first time.
Smiles uncontrolled.
I'm lost in the moment.
Time.
Stopped.
Your eyes dig deep inside me.
But I let them.
Trust like this?
So soon?
Something about you so,
Different.
Without thought, bite my lip.
Smile blooms upon yours.
I'm lost in the moment.
Time.
Stopped.
Flinch at the sign of life.
Real life.
Just a memory.
It was only,
A memory.
Every bone breaks.
Curl up once more.
Warmth flows from your eyes.
But freezes past your pillow.
You forgot.
everything I love to hate --- by wastedemotion, literature
Literature
everything I love to hate ---
Now I lay me down to sleep
Engulfed in memories, origination: deep
I stare into the black of night
Trying to forget these memories, so trite
I understand
I can see why
You're everything I love to hate.
Pray the Lord my soul to keep
Somehow everything in this world forces me to weep
If only I believed in superious beings
Someone that somehow played the Lord's role
If only I believed I had somewhat of a soul
I understand
I can see why
You're everything I love to hate.
If I should die before I wake
At least it would help to stop every ache.
Pray the Lord my soul to take.
your pleasure as my pain --- by wastedemotion, literature
Literature
your pleasure as my pain ---
You made me feel like such an angel,
Such a heavenly gift.
You made me feel like I was needed,
Such a heavenly gift.
But you don't believe in God,
And I don't believe in angels.
We agreed there wasn't a heaven,
But if there was,
We'd go to hell.
You promised me you'd bite my neck,
Willingly take my blood.
If by some wicked miracle,
Your dream of becoming a vampire came true.
We'd live together for eternity.
Just us: Me and you.
You made me feel like such an angel,
Such a heavenly gift.
You made me feel like I was needed,
Such a heavenly gift.
But you don't believe in God,
And I don't believe in angels.

Here's to a night and a day and eternity
of regret and of confusion.
Of wishing and wanting and loving,
and, really, all for what?
I must have missed the star I need to be with you..
I must have missed the chance I had.
Because everything's been worse since you,
and now there's so much more..
But you were never a problem
as long as you weren't in control.
But I let you control me,
just like what's been done before.
And I'm always left behind with my fantasy,
so close to be fulfilled.
I'm always left dreaming,
but he abandons what he helps create.
No one's there to wait for me,
like I'm always waiting for him.

I lied
and I smiled
and I laughed
my way out
of heartbreak.
I ignored
and I smiled
and I laughed
away
all the memories.
I acted
and I smiled
and I laughed
to ease
all the pain.
But I cried
as I smiled
as I laughed
but still I fooled
my way out
of heartbreak.
I believed
as I lied.
I fooled
even myself
or so I thought.
But here I am
eyes full of tears
full of heartbreak.
And here I am
mind spinning
overun with memories.
Here I am
acting skills
down the
drain.
Wide awake
sun is rising
as I'm lying here
I wonder
was it real?
Did you ever
hold my hand
with your arm
around my waist
pull me close
kiss me soft
watch for the smile
on my face?
Did you ever
feel my skin
touching yours
in your bed
breaking rules
keeping time
so we'd be sure
to leave by two?
Were you ever
deep inside me
full of passion
sweating under sheets
in the dark
attempting to relieve
my nonexistant
self esteem?
Did you ever
watch me cry
for unknown reasons
in my head
hold me tight
and try so hard
to make me smile
once again?
As I'm lying here
I wonder
was it real?
It had been three years since I moved to the city. The first few months consisted of daily walks around, and visits to coffee shops and art galleries. There were people I would always pass by on my way to nowhere in particular, becoming friends with strangers. Conversing in the ten seconds it takes to cross each others paths. I called them my 'walk-by friends'. I had walk-by friends in each corner of this city, some had even gotten to the status where I knew their names. And every day I had my headphones with me. I went through 25 pairs of batteries. It just seemed like a good idea to give my life a soundtrack, fearing any quite moment indi

without her consent, tell secrets if you looked deep enough
too fragile to protect against predators beknownst to her as lovers
too naive to believe protection was a necessity
