oh this is fucking ironic
the last time i blogged,
is exactly what was brought up once more today
you used to say you'd never let me go
i walked away, but you didn't come after mei'm sorry okay
that i'm not good enough
i'm not your type
that no matter what i do
i'll never meet the standards
not just your standards
but everyone else related to you
i got away from stiff necked stereotyping methodist churches
only to still in many ways
be connected to it
i'm sorry i'm not what you want
i never have been
and never will be
that the person you are,
can never be seen with the person i am
that we can be so close,
yet worlds apart
i used to think
how special it was
we were complete and utter opposites
we were so so different
but now,
i realize
that it's just an addition to all the shit that's already against us
so anyway,
chatting with Ashley cheered me up
was telling him how all my results have come back
he was assuring me that i was brilliant so i needn't worry
it's been long
haha
yes,
so my results have come back
improved
and overall,
i only failed three subjects
but this doesnt mean i won't be retained.
so
chat with ms sem
and i guess even if i am retained i'll have to make sure that
i don't waste anymore time in this little hell hole
********
because i've never fucking been enoughfor anyone

just another day,
just another day.
i'm up rushing art because
you know,
it's really very important to me
and my exam's this wednesday
torrid love triangle
and you wouldn't guess who's blog i've been reading
sometimes her words echo what i feel
and sometime i wonder if they mean what he feels
i'll explain another time
huge blowup with alastair over my new piercing
god knows why actually
he says he doesn't understand why i do things like that
well i don't understand why he blows up over minor issues
lovely innit?
we don't understand each other
so it makes me wonder why the fuck we should be together
nothing makes sense
but i've made my point clear
go ahead,
i'm telling you
since you "don't deserve this"
yea, all i give you is fuckshit right?
get it over and done with and stop dragging this on
all this while you're snoring over the phone right now
i mean,
i don't understand what you bloody wanna do
i'm sorry if i'm not what you want
but you sure are what i want
and i know this
you really don't make sense
you say you have to keep me from my wants
because sooner or later those wants will take me away from you
i said you were selfish
well doesn't it sound that?
and you said selfish for wanting me all to yourself
but the fact of the matter is this,
that "my wants" won't take me away from you
i've changed,
i don't have as many piercings as i'd like,
because of you.
i'm not your little dog who you have to keep from peeing all over your house
or it'll ruin the carpet
ashamedly, i'll admit
you come above a lot of things
and there's good and bad to it
when i get a piercing that you don't like
it's like my minor indulgence
like you playing computer games
i mean, you say it's "just like that"
you "just don't like it"
does it make sense if i throw a temper every time you want to play computer games?
even if it's til late?
no
no, it doesn't make sense
it's like i try so hard and it's absolutely pointless if i do something you don't like,
like get a new piercing or a new tattoo
i know you try hard too
and i don't throw bitch fits over pointless things
those times i called you today,
i thought
that i wasn't so bad
it was gonna be okay
but your mood can change so fast
you say you were never over it
and i thought you were because it never mattered to me in the first place
you say i don't know what i want but you do
i'm saying now
i know what i want
and i know what you want
and i know what you don't want as well
you want me but you don't want me to pierce and get tattoos
honestly speaking,
that's not really me
you're in love with some fantastical girl who has my traits
i know what i want
now,
you go figure out what you want
and if you should go after that fantastical girl who might just exist,
but not in me
but you know i've changed for you
and i will keep changing, even if i don't want to
these are the little parts of me that i'm trying to keep alive
acting
a couple of piercings
a couple of tattoos
but you have a problem with all of em
every theatre production,
you seem to have something against the people i'm working with
or you overreact and say thisthisthis guy likes me
right
so ball's in your court
because i've always left it there
it's like my heart knows
that you're the missing piece

so.
i don't know
how i should feel
for a start,
happy 370th post
celebrated mummy's birthday yesterday
put in as much effort as i could,
not to mention the little extra allowance our grand uncle gave us
yea,
to say i was happy was an understatement when he gave me a hundred bucks
because this would contribute to mummy's little birthday thing at jazz @ southbridge
mummy's little shopping spree landed me the thumbdrive i've needed
even though my sudden desperation for it was taken care of by alastair lending me his
the thumbdrive was good,
and pretty damn cheap
$37 for two 1gb thumbdrives
i'm pretty pleased when mummy hands me the new package
meanwhile,
janice gets a mp3 and mummy's bought herself an mp4 which looks pretty much like a nano with buttons
charis,
get over it
give not to receive
yea
you can't help thinking about
and i'm quiet as mummy excitedly unloads her purchases.
this slight unfairness, though i shouldnt call it that actually
is just a bit different from my step mom giving me thirty bucks and giving janice twenty
or something like that
oh fucking shit,
i should shut the fuck up
and stop fucking comparing
mummy's so happy.
i love seeing her that way
who can blame her?
shopping makes us girls happy
she's also bought a new(and supposedly better)
digital camera
yay,
yay for our new baby
yay for mummy's self birthday present
yay for janice's mp3 which she's always wanted
and erm
yay for my thumbdrive!
i need it for art anyway
yay(:
i've cried too much today,
i have to stop

it's just a greying picture
fading more each day
blurring what we used to have,
and taking us awayYour not the person that you used to be,
The one I want who wanted me,
And that's a shame but,
There's only so many tears that you can cry.
Before it drains the light right from your eyes,
And I can't go on that way.
And so I'm letting go of everything we were,
It doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.

TATTOO
HER NEW NAME WAS TATTOOED TO HER WRIST
IT WAS LONGER THAN THE OLD ONE
SEALED IN THE SILENCE WITH A FIST
THIS NIGHT WILL BE A COLD ONE
CENTURIES LIVE IN HER EYES
DESTINY LAUGHS OVER JACK-BOOTED THIGHS
“WORK MAKES US FREE” SAYS THE SIGN
NOTHING LEAVES HERE ALIVE
TATTOO
SHE STEPS OUT OF LINE TO THE LEFT
AND HER FATHER TO THE RIGHT
ONE SIDES A COLD, CLEAN DEATH
THE OTHER IS AN ENDLESS NIGHT
GOLD FROM A GRANDMOTHER’S TOOTH
MOUNTAINS OF JEWELRY AND TOYS
PILED IN THE CORNERS, MAILED ACROSS THE BORDERS
PRESENTS FOR THE GIRLS AND BOYS
PRESENTS FOR THE GIRLS AND BOYS
TATTOO
AND IT GETS DARKER EVERY NIGHT
SPREAD-EAGLED OUT AMONG THE STARS, SHE SAYS
“SOMEWHERE IN THIS TUNNEL LIVES A LIGHT
STILL MY BEATING HEART
I HAVE NEVER KNOWN A MAN
WHAT MAN WILL WANT ME NOW?
AM I STILL ALIVE, SOMEHOW?
IF I CAN SURVIVE, SOMEHOW
TATTOOED”
SOLDIERS FROM THE OTHER SIDE
LIBERATED THEM AT DAWN
GAVE HER WATER, GAVE HER LIFE
SHE STILL HAD ALL HER CLOTHES ON
SHE LIVED UNTIL SHE DIED
EMPTY AS THE AUTUMN LEAVES THAT FLY
SURGEONS TOOK THE MARK
BUT THEY COULD NOT TAKE IT FAR
IT WAS WRITTEN ON HER HEART
WRITTEN ON HER EMPTY HEART
TATTOOED

i'm not missing you
i'm not going through the motions
waiting and a hoping you'll call me
i'm not missing you
you mighta had me open but i must be going because
i got life to do
i know i'm usually hanging on
i used to hate to see you gone
but this time is different
i don't even feel the distance
i'm not missing you
no i cant be with you cos
im scared felt like i was falling when you left me
i cant keep going through life
unaware of what im missing
or the person that i could be
loves good when its right
bad when its left
in your memory all the time anytime
i guess love will be nice for someone else's lifetell me why i feel this way
my head buzzing with information and the lack of time
oh the lack of time!
biology tomorrow as well as the
i-know-i'll-fail-mathematics
i just finished tuition,
maybe just maybe i'll get that chance
back to point
i cannot explain how or why i feel this way
i can't find the words
everything's exploding outta my head
i've written it down on a four page spread
for my eyes and my diary's only.
i can't
because i want to scream
and i'm finding tears down my face again
tell me why please?
i'm pushing it out of my mind
but it's coming through my subconscious,
waking up in the middle of the night crying because
i havn't had the chance to cry it out real life
tell me why why why
and why do i feel this way?
when i know you love me
but it's like you're hiding something
how can i tell you?
why, when did i become this
this insanely jealous person?
let me escape,
because i really need to
different points of views
messed up words
i know you don't understand this either
cos now i'm freefalling
and oh isn't this the wrong time
considering the exams that are still coming
nothing's breaking my fall
no one's there to catch me
i cannot explain anymore
but i just want
to run away with you
because.
because i know it'll all be alright again
because.
because i find that i believe you
because.
because there isn't a reason to think that you're lying
remember?
like the very first time you lied.
we'd dated for barely a month
and you know?
i only just found out
i shouldn't rake this up
not after you've so sweetly apologized
but i realize now,
why it's guts me so bad,
and that's because
you had no reason to lie
and i had no reason not to believe you
so you lied
and i believed you
and this is where i am now
inevitably pondering other things you might possibly lie about
i'm not saying i don't lie
everyone lies
but you had no reason to
and that's why it hurts
and this is what it stems from
and i'm really sorry for thinking,
for feeling this way
i'm stuck on youi need you more than you need me.
i know that full well
crazed,
mentally unsound
i'm losing my mind
my words don't make sense
i dreamt of my daughter Yeola last night,
i was with her in sunday school.
she was wearing a yellow dress and her hair was slightly curly at the ends,
and dark brown
she had big eyes and fair skin
and she ran to the toilet with the rest of the kids after stuffing their faces with cake
"mommy mommy mommy"
she called, annoyed that she couldn't reach the sink
then i had a nightmare
but lovely yet strangely enough,
good or bad,
i can't quite remember it
it had something to do with alastair
i was hurt
and i woke up crying
irony eh?
now i know you're not a fairytale
and dreams are meant for sleeping
wishes on a star
just don't come truebut,
i'm still so in love with you
