Love arrives
and in its train come ecstasies
old memories of pleasure
ancient histories of pain.
Yet if we are bold,
love strikes away the chains of fear
from our souls.

Rude people who go around saying trolly things to random Xangans don't deserve our attention.

If they can't be nice, they don't deserve any nice treatment from us. That is all.

beast in the brain
aching to tear through,
a trapped respite,
where is the oasis?
where is the succor in the
amber sap bubbling to the
surface
there is tiredness in
the toughened bark
that sags when it
is pulled too hard
for too long,

but it does not die

we do not die like that.

Just got in from a night on the town with some guys from work. Had a good time. I'm really getting tired of people telling me they can hook me up with people, though. Is it weird that I don't want to just jump into bed with someone? Or rebound off of someone? I didn't think it was that strange to take time to oneself after a relationship ends.

I keep wanting to say "I don't want to be with someone else. I want to be with her" but I refrain because that makes me sound needy and weak.

But maybe I am. I dunno.

I'm feeling melancholy. I don't like it.

In other news, I've decided to play an open mic on Thurs night. I'm kind of excited about that. Need to narrow down what I'm going to play. I know I'm gonna do one original, but not sure on covers. Torn.

I hate this. I'm really tired but I just don't want to go to bed. I don't like sleeping on my own.

God.. I'm pathetic.

I love you
even when I don't
I love everyone even when I don't like em a bit

It doesn't make sense
but if it had to make sense it would
so it doesn't I guess
and it don't

ever think of how strange it is how strange people appear?
so far away, so inscrutable
they're here standing, talking, doing things
and I can't hear their thoughts but they must be thinking
they must have a whole internal world I can't see
they look like shells sometimes
puppets
but I can't see the hand

where is the hand?

I love you
