Description this is a poem about how you blend together like the summer sky and i am still jumping from the toybox with a towel draped over my arms, firmly convinced if i flap i can fly.

i now have a certain sympathy for gramophones and vcrs because yesterday i dropped into oblivion when i was left behind for something better. i've always identified well with inanimate objects. people, not so much.

this is a poem about how you stopped trying to tell me long ago that i'm more than i am. none of us believed you anyway.

you're going to have dementia when you’re older because look, you’ve already forgotten me. that’s okay, i'm pretty sure if it was important this isn't where i'd be.

this is a poem about revisionist history and astronauts and evolution. this a poem about how jealousy is eating me alive even as i plot the ways to save you from yourself.


this is a poem about how loving you has never been enough.





and you are an iPod

I loved the poem! But now it's depresssing me. Is it about what you were telling me over the phone the other day? If it isn't, we need another talk. By the way, I'm not going to forget about you any time soon. AND you're as good as I tell you you are.

I'm sorry! And it wasn't from that time; it was the lunch hour you were studying, everybody went off to the cafe and didn't think to ask me to come or even tell me where they had gone afterwards. And I know you're not going to forget about me. My poems tend to dramatize/exaggerate, though I try to be as honest as I can. And I should warn you, most of my poems will be this depressing. I write to get emotion out, and I can deal with positive emotions. The ones I need to get out are loneliness, anger, etc.

And ... no. Just no.

Awww, thank you!

But don't worry about me too much, Ziggeh darling. I muddle along... and I write poetry to bleed out emotions. I don't need to bleed out the happy ones, just the not-so-happy ones. I am more a happy person than sad, though you may not believe it from my deviations and RPing.

Ah, no worries there, I believe it very willingly <33 You've got the right to let the emotions go like anyone else does. And your roleplaying only lets your stupendous skill shine through, not your negative feelings of the moment :]

Oh good. I do worry that I come off hopelessly depressed here. I'm always kinda worried that people will think I'm gonna go off myself.
And thank you! It's so much fun, isn't it, to escape from yourself while you're RPing? I mean, you can't be yourself and you can't give in to your current emotions because that's not what your character's feeling.

Don't worry and write x33 What rolls out of your pen is like written gold.
Just right. It's difficult to make your writing sound different from what you're feeling - well, I find it hard, in any case. That's why my style is never constant x0 But you have a great style, and a steady one. You're really good at roleplaying characters who aren't the same as you <33

it wasn't about you, thank god. you are one of the people in my life i can count on not to. the 'you' was plural this time, to our class in general and in particular my friends there. Ashley and Erin not included.
i miss you. it was so much easier when you were here. but i think in the end it'll make us both stronger. that's the only reason i can think of right now that this happened... we needed to see what we could do without each other. so we'll come back bigger and braver than ever, you better believe it!
