its not to say that i object
but its always been my pity party
(and i will cry if i want to)
You're not required to attend
but here You are once again
dancing slowly next to this brick wall
looking pretty, full of life and sparkle
putting away your worries
putting away your cares
hiding it in the Moonlight behind your hair
like You don't belong here

That's The Reason

I Was Never Yours
Drowning in a glass of spilled milk
i was never Your mess to clean up
but i dripped and dribbled
insistently coated Your skin with the slick, silent liquid
There was too much
and soon You were drowning too
Carelessly pouring, sliding
slipping, dripping, forcing
into a glass too small to contain such Disaster
a container too limited to restrain such Catastrophe
and the Moonlight shone for the two of us
the sun had eyes only for You, its Daughter
the rain only added fire to Your heart
resisting the current of that unrestricted river

The College Nightmare
College.
I feel like after saying that its necessary to add "The Final Frontier", because honestly, even being launched out an airlock or finding out that Darth Vader is your Father isn't as terrifying as realizing that your next decision will probably be one of the most important you will make in your entire life.
Maybe even the most important.
If I said I wasn't scared, I would be an awful liar.
Junior year was really rough for me, academically as well as emotionally. I finished out the year with a 2.8, I was really hoping for a 3.0. Honestly, I've never been more disappointed with myself as a person.
But anyway. What do I want to do with my life?
I've known since the 3rd grade, with only minor adjustments when I reached High School.

In Bullet Form! :D

Today's Shattered Star: Things That Hurt
So I was cruising around the internet, bored out of my mind as usual when I saw something one of my RL friends had posted.
You know when you see something that's not meant to be hurtful, or even directed at you specifically but it just
tears your heart in half?
And its totally irrational, but you just can't help it? Yeah, that's me right now.
