Final Escape

you always want me to be a part of you
you always taught me to be alive with you
this is the time and the place and the moment
feeling the way that i do
these are the signs and the traces of growing
by living the way that i do
i hope you understand and acknowledge
all that's passing through
it's constantly been there and
throwing all that wasn't good
i hope we both find the place
where maybe some day we will find our strength
and hopefully attain to finally escape
i'm always amazed how we're so self destructive
does any body know why?
find the Light

-elsiane, "final escape"

Love this song (I've been playing it out) and this band. <|3

I turn on my car to find two lights on the dash. On the right, the check engine light and on the left, the empty gas tank light. As I roll over the bumps in my apartment complex, the gas light dims and disappears for a few seconds. It lets me know that there's still a bit sloshing around in there. I open my g-mail to find an e-mail from my ex. The air around me began to fizzle and my heart paused as I read. It lets me know that there's still a bit sloshing around in there. <|3

Like water my son...

Everything feels so fluid. I feel as if I'm in the middle of whitewater rapids, standing. As if I'm just standing there, muscles tight and twitching; standing against this great force of nature. The water swirls and crashes all about me. It's so hard to think. My thoughts feel like the rapids. Attempting to hold onto a single thought is like trying to hold the nature that surrounds me. But there I am, standing against. I don't know if I should move. I'm afraid to take a step. I'm afraid to even unclench a single finger. And I don't know if it's out fear that once I let go, once I let my muscles relax, once I take the first step that I will be swept away. Or if fear that once I try to move, that I'll continue to stand against the flow.
