Sometimes what you thought was an interruption

Turns out to be your life.

And sometimes what you thought was your life

Turns out to have been an interruption.

And yet you have to act

As if you were back in the fourth grade

And knew the right answer was Pittsburgh

But put down Bethlehem just to see what would happen ---

How it would feel to be wrong.

The Choice, David Lehman

Song Lyrics

A fire is burning

She dances amongst the flames

Through all degrees she burns, until there's no more to last

We've come to hurt or be hurt

Love or be loved

Learn by trial and tribulation

And she said

That lie you're living, how's that working out for you?

I hope it's everything you wanted

A life of empty words and pretends

Who are you to do this to me?

You must've been out of your mind

She writes it all down

Just for you to see the mistake you've made

We all have to learn at some point not to go back

Guess this is the end for you

And she said

I was everything you wanted

But now you've thrown it all away

Let it all burn to ashes

And the salt was thrown down

So nothing grows here again

So now I'm gone, I'm out of your way

And I can't see any part of you anymore

The fire doused by a raging sea

The waves crash and smoke seeps away

Into thin air

Doesn't matter now if you're five feet under

Or you're grasping the sand beneath

You're still drowning

Lie to me, lie to me, lie to me

Tell me it's going to work now

You're like a magician, only to impress me with the art of deceit

And she said, lie to me, lie to me

You had your chance to tell the truth

Now all I remember is nothing but false, false, false

Erase yourself from my mind cause this is

Over.

Angel, Brandon Kim

gone

my poetry sucks, I just re read it. i'm such a whiny bitch. wow. ahaha.

i mean i write this blog for me, not for anyone else so it doesnt really matter

that's why i dont tell basically anybody about it

hah. dang. i just want to disappear again.

everything else that ties me to the internet is gone

facebook, twitter, formspring, i dont use my tumblr anymore

i dont have to SEE anything anymore.

maybe that makes me weak to have to avoid people like that

but god, it's blissful to not have to see any part of you

facebook used to kill me. so badly.

the things, the photo albums i saw still get at me.

but id like to think i don't miss the people i used to miss

the ones who loved me so much they hurt me the worst

well, maybe i miss the memories we shared

but i have nothing at all to say to them.

not a word.

i miss you and then realize that all the words have stopped cold in my blood.

because more than i miss you,

i won't forget.

and all the crap you did makes me sick.

so i've moved on... hah

feels like im lying to myself.

i hate liars. makes sense, kind of hate myself for going through this crap

this inconsequential crap that really doesn't amount to anything in the grand scheme of life

im glad its over.

im glad youre gone.

and im glad i dont have to write so much constant crappy poetry anymore.
