Ocean Shell Broken Promises
You know,
I could never hear the ocean when I held that shell to my ear, just beautiful silence. Which is better than false ocean noises anyway to me. I'd rather just go to the ocean to hear it in person, than to listen to it through a shell.
I've been to the ocean. I've rolled in its captivating tide with all my clothes on in the dead of night. I've danced through its foamy surf underneath that beautiful Australian sun. And I loved it. I did it all with the best of friends.
I wish I could do it all again.
You know,
I've wished so many times. Sometimes of things that don't really matter, sometimes of things that do. I wish to
I politely told the priest that I didn't believe in her faith
and her views
she smiled rather shyly
and complimented me on my shoes
It's all bread and wine to me
It's all just bread and wine to me
I strike a pose in my back pew
but I don't bow my head in prayer
I lick my heart-shaped lollypop
and I keep my faith unaware
It's all bread and wine to me
It's all just bread and wine to me
In my pew I don't read the bible
I smoke and giggle and swear
There are whispers all around this sacred space
people can't help but scowl and stare
How very Christian of them.
on the floor,
in six pieces,
and two more,
hidden in the freezer,
i remember a needle,
a little bit of skin,
i couldn't find the scar,
pushed the blade,
so far into her arm,
fading shiny star,
it's hard to lie,
when she hurts,
so hard to smile,
and cut her just right,
imagine,
sleeping in the snow,
torn dolls,
cannot feel the cold,
think back,
her lovely tears,
"you make me happy,"
and she smiled,
gave me her heart,
beating though dry,
i took out her heart,
and replaced it with mine,
adoration,
on the table next to you,
in 8 pieces,
all for you.
I never heard it coming
I only felt it hit
Hard on my back
Pain radiating from it
Thoughts race through my mind
Faster than a speeding bullet
Ashamed at everything
Everything that surrounds me
Mothers disowning daughters
Father beating sons
Families shunning
All in the name of love
Did you hear?
Spongebob is gay
Damn, there goes another
Friend I almost knew
He joins Snufuluagus
Bert and Ernie too
All singing with Tinky-Winky
As Mr. Rogers ties his shoes
It seems that everyone
is either gay
or pro-family
never just normal
Only one option left
never join the world
No tv, radio, or internet
to keep me safe from gays
I
