Occupied

by Nymphetamine   Sep 28, 2008


Darkness infused in light
light pretending to be dark
fingers of metallic surface
relentless, seeking
plunging into depths of
murky browns and
intense swirling reds

Hair made of string
soaked in salt and bile
spotless gleaming surfaces
of porcelain white
glimmering black and white tile
eyes red and sore
from unwanted tears
that cant be restrained

Acidic bitter taste rises
climbing higher and higher
spilling over two rose petals
parted slightly to give way
to the wave of nausea

Tunnel of darkness
in which she slowly ascends
blinking and adjusting to the
eerie fluorescent lights

Cold splash of the reality
that pins her down
skin so sickly pale and drawn
smiling radiantly at her twin
she turns and closes the door

    Again my thoughts found a way to you

    I am sorry. 100x over. You know what I am talking about. Regardless if it holds no meaning to you anymore; or bothers you one bit. I am still sorry and forever will be. You were my Australian soulmate. I was petty. I was stupid. I was blind.

    Ignorance is not bliss when you finally learn to see.

    I have a feeling we will never speak again, and you will never see this message. To be honest I do not know why I am typing still... I just know this is my goodbye. And it actually hurts. After so many years. I am truly the biggest softy in the world.

    I hope you are happy. I really do.

    I still have not spent 11 hours straight talking to someone, you still hold that honor. And always will I am sure.

    Goodbye
    My former penpal
    My former friend
    My former love
    My former world
    My former Amy

    Only 5 days after you comment mine, I come on here. It is a crazy thing indeed... Life is funny when you think about it. Can you believe I ACTUALLY pictured you and I somehow, someway getting together. Like the whole 9 yards, with you moving here.

    Things change all the time. You really should contact me.. I had no idea whats been happening to you. I know you told me about the big happy news, but after that you vanished. My email is Protoryu@gmail.com
    And you had my MSN...
