hastily, hastily now,
you can step on peoples' toes
but you can't climb the food chain
faster than you can be consumed,
like a love letter in a fire,
curling around yourself
and flaking to brittle pieces.
if you knew how to swim,
you'd float inside my harbor
instead of drowning in my wake.
if i wasn't the little match girl,
you wouldn't be able to set me afire so easily;
i'd rather be flamable, though,
than combustable like you.
you can explode all you want,
you will never hold a flame to me.
we hurtle over pavements at the speed of sound,
yelping like coyotes and dancing
along those white dotted lines that lead us to the end of the world
where black candle trees grow like blackened bony hands
that claw their way up to the sky.
they are as determined as we are to live,
only they are struggling against everything
and we only struggle against each other.

what we didn't want came true
it was you against me and me against the wall
pushing and shoving into me, forcing apart my legs
i felt my hips dig into yours and my head hit the flat surface
i screamed and screamed and screamed but nothing happened except
the touch of your lips against my skin, and under it the breaking of my brittle bones
you clasped your hands around my throat and held tight
the air began to close off, and my lungs felt weak
tears appeared and bruises started to swell all over my body
"stop" i plead, but you just laughed
and unbuttoned my blouse.

it were days like today where i felt
used, broken and too fucked up
to even glance at my

Further Away
She walks away from me,
And I don't know how it makes me feel
It seems to be slipping away,
And I don't know if was even real
My mind screams stay!
But part of me wouldn't have it any other way
It's like they always say:
One step closer,
Another step further away
She walks on water to me...
Wherever she is ...is where I want to be
It gets harder to take each day,
She walks away from all the promises I make
I hear myself scream.....
Don't you walk away from me!
But like a vision that I sense,
She disappears into the mist
To have her by my side,
Is the one thing I've always prayed
But every time I get near her,
She just seem

tuesday afternoons
and the wind chills my bones and every time i look at my watch i remember all the times when we sat on the grass laughing, watching the afternoon sun arcing across the sky like a shooting star.

Au contraire, I believe the ending is the best. And I love the little match girl. :]
