so i decided to sit in my car 6th hour with the radio blasting, AC on, and an open notebook in front of me...this is one of the things that came out..the other is just nonsense that i wrote while waiting for something to come to me.
I don't know what to call it.."Untitled" is pretty cliche..so i tentivley titled it:

"A Reflection on Suicide."

I want the wind to be cold
As it brushes my face
I want to look upon my home
From my vantage point
And forget it ever existed
"He had so much potential." the relatives will say
But I don't care

I want the wind to be strong
As it tries to blow me away
I want to look upon the world
From this vantage point
And get that feeling of warmth
That I know I will never get again
"What a waste." The onlookers will say
But I don't care

I want the wind to be at my back
As it helps me along my way
I want tears of happiness to flow
As I look up at my ever shrinking vantage point
"What a selfish act." my friends will say
But I don't care

If I feel the comforting cold
Of the concrete
One last time

Maybe then
I will care.

Yeah, so its no Shakesperian sonnet, but for being whipped up in the heat of the moment with no real pre-thought going into it..it really means alot to me is what i guess im trying to say.

comments, whatever, I don't care.

I need to go play music now.

Aight...whenever I like a poem I print it out in pretty font (or I write it cool, but this one is too long) and then I put art stuff around it. Like if I write a poem about fall I'll make a stick frame out of twigs and do something with dead leaves...or I had a poem about a car crash and I broke all these bottles and put scrap metal around the outside and put the broken glass over certain words so they were magnified....stuff like that. Sometimes I give em to people and I've entered an art show once or twice..but pretty much it's just projects for myself.

I really liked it. It's better than anything I could ever do. Of course, that's not much....damn, I'm boring.
