Outside of Card: This Christmas, "paws" to remember the reason for the season...
Inside of Card: Jesus! Merry Christmas!

I am my own. Why
Should I have to
let you?
Love- what could the
reason be? I only
know who I am. I
suppose I'll never
know what you want.
Is it you, or merely
your idea? Your
warm
blistered
heart
Confuses me like nothing
else...

Kuraki yori
This is the first line of a famous waka by Izumi Shikibu
Kuraki yori
Kuraki michi ni zo
Irinubeki
Haruka ni terase
Yama no ha no tsuki
In modern Japanese Kurasa yori kurasa michi ni zo irinubeshi haruka no...

I feel myself drowning in a sea of thought,
My heart falling into a bottomless pit of dispair.
Though I am unconscious of the world around me,
I'm all too aware of the infinite hell inside me.
The ground feels warm beneath my feet,
And the air...

I'll love you until the farthest heavens have turned black from sadness
Until the world is gorged with madness
Until the winds turn to rain and fall to the sea
Until I've been withered away and there's nothing left of me
As long as the sun...

I cannot love anyone
For fear of loving too many
How long will one last
Do you put all of yourself
Into one person
Give them your heart
All you have
It could be someone else
The next week
Will they do the same for you
Enough so that they...

No, I'm not going to love anymore
I won't care for anyone
I won't kiss anyone
Hold anyone
Touch anyone
Or let them do those things to me
I certainly won't let my heart feel anything
Never, that's for sure
Well, that is, until I see him again

what i've learned about poetry
is that its ok to open your heart
and bleed or purr or maybe
even construct text, i've learned
that poets are quite mad and that
this is our perfect right to speak
up and out and inside out
because the...

After everything I've been through
Don't I deserve you
More than a consolation prize, at least
The beautiful one that hangs around my neck
My fingers are so cold on my skin
As I trace it
These sheets in my hand are
The only set I own now

My soul, reminiscent is it of the window i look out of,.... with clarity it is far too easy to see into.
Those i love most believe they see all that i am, yet they don't know like an actress i'm merely playing a role!
This is not truly me,.... ' I...

I keep you here with me,
Not really knowing if I should
I wonder what I am to you
Assuming is stupid
Asking seems ridiculous
Uncertainty seems cruel
Especially after all this time
How open are we- I don't know
The darkness can be
As...

Everything makes me think of you
Everywhere I go, no matter what I do
I wish you were with me
I wish you were making me laugh
That you were looking into my eyes
That it was you holding me
You kissing me (no one else compares to you)
I wish it...

She wears flip-flops in the rain,
When it doesnt make sense.
She laughs in church,
For all the wrong reasons.
She trips, over Everything
With nothing in her way.
She doesnt, match.
Shes not sure of anything,
Except that...

Old age is coming quickly now
Way past three score and ten
Last time I had a wild night out,
Well, I can't remember when
I recall all the excitement
Of being young and fit
And the many times I ended up
In a deep and murky pit.
Mind, I...

It's no mystery that you killed me,
Our relationship, our future.
No, because everyone know what a coward you are.
Too bad I didn't know before.
It's just too bad.
My heart suffers miserably,
Wondering how it can be over,
Wondering why you...

When I see you, I'm just supposed to smile
And ask you how you are
I'm not supposed to be wishing I could
Touch that sweet smile to mine
When I sit next to you
I'm just supposed to smoke my cigarette
All the while not dreaming of
What it...

The armies line up,
mudstained and determined,
by the murky sea.
So dark and brown,
the waters are still
as the battle waits.
They are set upon one another,
the fighting is fierce -
some are lost,
others victorious,
to mourn brothers...

A lone figure, numerous thoughts.
Timeless, silence.
Senses heightened. Awake.
Purple sky, sun hiding.
Eyes close, heart stops.
Wind moves, Willow speaks.
Falling. Wings lifted.
A voice, a gesture.
An angel. Bliss.
Eyes open, heart beats.

Loneliness is highly underrated.
It doesn't just last an hour
or a day or a week
It's always there, lying deep inside,
Hiding so slyly at the back
of your subconscious.
And your subconscious never goes away.
It's always announcing its...

I was close to you but you were miles away
My longing is for you; you long for someone else
Someone who doesn't know how to be desired like this
Sweet, innocent, naive,
What does she know of love?
I know your heart, your mind, your body
I know...
