Quote
When I miss the good times,I must remember thatNo matter how hard I tried,I could never wash the tasteOf doubt off my lips,That every flavor of your kissHit me with pungent loneliness(Even when the touch of yourHands felt like salvation),And that this "safe space"I worshiped through my poemsWas a product of my imaginationMore than your words or actions.

Sister,if hewants to touchthat beautiful and rare diamondbetween your legs,if he wants to slip intothat honey they swarm around,always hungry, always go,then hewill take it however yougive it to him.And if you want to give it to him hairy,that's how he's going to fucking take it.—Stop trying so hard. Find your own beautiful.

It burns,I know.It burns now,now thatthe story is over,now thatthe daybreak is liquid,now thatmy knees don't creak anymoreand the leaves are blowingand the highway is humming,and a few extra pounds is nota terminal diagnosis.It burnsin me toohealing mebut the ache is not for you.It's for my passion.That used to be your name.And it's sad, really.The sting oftoo littletoo late.

Imagination is a gift.I've misused it,Hired it toPaint my wallsWith fear.I've learned it,Laughed atMy storiesOf "truth."I've burst with it,Dripped myHopes and liesOnto you.And now I've become it,Stopped tryingTo control my wildfireAnd let it spread.Life is a gift.I'm. Opening. It.

They hit me raw, hard, real,the words you say (and don't)as I leave to catch my flight.But in real life airports,no one is chasing anyoneto ask for a longer story.And on real life airplanes,it is too loud for anyoneto hear anyone else cry.
