Hearts & Flowers


for the day of the dead
i went to old town
it was the first time
since that last time

a man stood behind a newspaper stand
with silky palm leaves
threading them into flowers and hearts
my heart spoke before my mind could remember
and stifle the desire to buy one
to give it to you
i could see myself handing you
this piece of beauty
i thought...
i knew you would have loved it






i wanted to buy one for you
but then reality and sadness with it welled up
because i couldn't...


   

...it's the little things that hurt the most <|3

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.

Surprise, Surprise!

Oh, certain people from the past are picking the wrong time to be cute. You may have thought you “dodged a bullet” but I know I dodged a freight train strapped to a hurricane. Honestly, I didn’t know there was something that was the opposite of a Muse until I met you. So, you always wanted a poem, it’s on its way. I just hope your dodging skills are still sharp because there will be (metaphorical) shots fired and honey, this is the Matrix, and I’m happy to say, you’re not the one.   ►http://bit.ly/2cHNraW ♥ http://bekonstant.com/

I fear my that digestive tract has gone in reverse and that my stomach has been unknowingly gnawing at my soul, swallowing it out my mouth and into the world where it is broken down by acid rains and flushed into the depths of the ocean to be nibbled on by tiny blue fish and yellow crabs. <|3
