Stopped in motion,

Is this emotion?

Lifted by beauty,

Embolden like duty,

Nature grabbed me,

Clinged on to thee,

Elevating my glee.

Escape with me, Can you see? Lights so muted, I feel rooted, Plan with bliss, So don’t miss, Each moment of this.

I’m beyond furious but I must pretend I have no mouth and I cannot speak I have chosen to stay with the person that ripped apart my heart, ripped up my face, ripped up my hair, torn through my skin

1980 something. we all hung out at Pearl and you and i were nothing special, or so i thought. i mean we all danced, drenched in our own sweat, our own saline solution of fear, too many beers, shots, laughter, tears, fucks in the bathroom and i don't know when we began to be afraid. do you?
