Love stories are so fucking
stupid.
I love the way they portray love to
be so clean
simple
straight on the edge.
Fuck off.
What I know about love
is hard
rough
jagged,
makes you feel like there's nothing
nothing
that can change.
It makes you the most scared,
the most frightened
of a world without it.
Love doesn't dance in the flower fields
Love doesn't sing in the rain
and love sure as hell doesn't run down the streets
springing with joy
and bliss.
It makes you cold,
it makes you hard.
It makes you feel like you are
nothing
and when its gone
you feel an empty
that's never been there before.
truly blank eyes that
stare
into another soul but have
their windows boarded
so tight
and hate the sun light

provide.
Lonely people surrounded by
peers of many calibers
and different people
wanting to have a peak inside.
I will show you the crack in
the window shades
if you let me open you wide.
She never responded with a quick glance
but a long stare
forcing these blinds to disappear
and reaching her hands out
through the glass
and grabbing what's mine.
Not as I said it would be
I tell her reaching for her wrist,
a quick jerk and she's out
and I stare back at her innocence.
I will show you the crack,

She had a face with a permanent
frown
plastered from
left to right.
It was as if ugly
had been embodied into a
young girl
too naive to know her
real role.
She sat next to a girl so average
she'd be overlooked in any other
place.
It pains her to be ignored, but
she laughs with excitement
when her friend,
frown and all,
sits next to her.
The mere comparison is a brutal
fallacy of young women
throughout the west.
We are all in competition,
I guess,
that's just it.
We've faced the tyranny of men of our own blood.
We've bestowed upon the world a view that is more
egocentric
than any other.
We've hit the shores.
We've made a mess.
We defined what it means to be from the west;
we've defined what it really means to be monsters.
We've faced the tyranny of our own blood,
and we've bestowed upon the world
a tyranny all the same.
We are the west; we are the war nations.
Its for those long nights
of lonesome frights
and apart of you missing
yourself.
Those nights in the suburbs
of our cities.
Slowly and surely
pushing home.
It's the nights here
that make me feel like
I'm apart of something
so big
that my small time
small town
mind can't wrap itself around.
The nights here without
her
are the ones I need to see
why I need her.
Submit yourself
to the trash that you
yes you
have put together
and so humbly
called
art.
I called art,
and they said stop
don't do it
don't push it.
So I force fed myself
the lines I'd spew
for the others
and managed to make
something.
For lack of a better
expression,
that something
feels more like nothing.
I am so much more inclined to care
about the progression and state
of humanity and peaceful
living
circumstances that I forget
I am one of those people
that I have the best intentions for.
We've started our feet,
one in front of the other,
much like the way
we were chained together.
I looked ahead and behind
and saw my fellow
humans
be devoured by the lines
and the slow
stepping
motions
that drove all of us forward.
You couldn't stop,
it would lull the line,
adding tension to the front
and a barrier to the back.
The motions, the movements
they consumed you.
So I pushed myself forward,
perfectly in time,
hoping the one behind
did the same.
From as long as I can remember,
this chain gang has moved,
and these whips that cracked
words
that fooled us to think
outside
of our chains.

I've started to watch the door,
no, the gap between the door
and the floor
a lot more these days.
There's a light out there, waiting,
still.
I watch for the movement,
of anything
alive
and I hope to God it comes knocking,
so I can sit here, and never
ever
answer the door.
