set the fire to the third bar.

I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from me to where you'd be
It's only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place, where I'd find your face
My fingers in creases, of distant dark places

I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I've found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in silence

Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Is like music to me

And miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
and I, I pray that something picks me up
And, sets me down in your warm arms

After I have travelled so far
We'd set the fire to the third bar
We'd share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can't keep in

And miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
and I, I pray that something picks me up
And, sets me down in your warm arms

And miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
and I, I pray that something picks me up
And, sets me down in your warm arms



do you ever get it, when you're listening to a song on your ipod, and you really listen to the lyrics?
like, really listen hard?
its not background music anymore, its the only thing you can hear?
everything around you becomes a blur. the music is all you focus on.
and it reaches down and touches your soul, and a shiver sneaks its way down your spine.
and thats when you realise.

soulmates never die.

I'm sitting at a cafe today, alone and so numb but I'm smiling
and I remember every time you used to kiss me so softly
on my nose and the look in your eyes that I miss more then you
and something in me turns warm and I can't help but wonder
if you are God himself because I always said as a child
that love was weak and never would I love a person
other then the man and the holy God himself so for me to be
sitting here, sipping on my warm coffee not even tasting the drops
but tasting your lips and smelling your scent must be absurd in a world
that clambers louder then the clambering in this world itself, but then again
maybe i'm the one thats so mad to think that another person
in this world could ever complete me more then i complete myself
when after all i always thought i was more whole then a hole once filled
but now that i think about it im not whole because i was the hole
upon this clambering earth and you were the soil that filled me to the brim
as together we became not two, but one beautiful plant of happiness
sprouting to create something so beautiful nothing in this world could
ever compare to what we were as I would soon come to find and realize
and i bustle my way through these busy streets still not even thinking or feeling
the effects of the coffee i drank and paid for, i even opened the door and hopped
on a tram, cos all i can think of is your palms across my body tracing every arch
and the tingles across my skin that i loved so much but i'd always pull away
though i wanted it more then anything much like you next to me when i was angry
but deep down i was never angry i just wanted you to be closer to me and to
hold me in your arms because nothing made me feel more safe then being in them,
so here i am states apart as well as mind and body and the breeze is so cold here
but i'm sure where you are its non existant like the sun here but same too im sure
its all there with you where deep down i know i should be because its not love that
captivated me with you, but the friendship of unlike anything i've ever come across
like soulmates finding eachother you and me were in a world of our own but if i'm right
about all of this and if you know me i'm usually correct, then it doesnt matter that im
not there with you now, or the fact that i left or didnt come back when i thought i did,
and it doesn't matter that other girls might come and go through your life while im away
as boys will through mine, none of it matters at all because since it wasn't love that made
me fall for you, but who you are inside entwined with who i am, well we'll always be that
and you will always be you, so it might be in another life or it might be in years or even decades
from now that i return to you with my perfect teeth like i promised i'd get and tear your
future girlfriend away with a smile so evil but you'd agree we'd always promised that, so it
might be a while, but we'll be us again and not once through this did i put a full stop and i did
it for a reason because with us there might be pauses, but there is no end to soulmates
for it is not the outer that they see upon the other, but who, deep down upon the beauty
of the heart and the true being inside is who they fall for.

traintracks!

well, i’m now strapped into some sexy grills since wednesday. ahaha nahh, i knew i'd be getting braces for a while and had been going through the pre-brace stuff, but now i’ve got them for real, and my god do they hurt like a bitch.
so for the next year and a half to 2 years my mouth is going to be full of metal.
i’ll spare you the picture.

i really don’t mind them too much. its been 4 days since they were whacked on but i'm a bit more used to them now. i got these clear/invisible ones on the top which are heaps unnoticeable and the bottom ones are yummy metal and white. Okay, yeah, it’s annoying and makes me look 10% more ugly but whatever.


i love natasha clarke and im not allowing her to leave me for china!
evereverever. :(

haha,
phones going so better bounce,
peace x
