I've cried so many rivers I can feel myself drowning and in spite of all the bottles I've been downing I can't find piece of mind and it feels like a piece of mine has been lost so deep rewind pause and press play life like a relay race I switch back and forth between bad and worse and I can't find the time to tame this fire flame on. Rage on. That's what they say. Turn your passion to power your energy will flower and blossom into something more awesome than the ends of the Earth. Of course it hurt. It hurt in the way you delay relaying the contents of your day just so she can stay one more hour. But of course she leaves and leaves your soul devoured. Not to say she's gone for good she'll be back tomorrow. And all the sorrow you feel in the moment is just shit and you have to own it. Don't let it own you because then I too will be sitting eye to eye with the devil and as we sit level he whispers words that would make you revel. If only he spoke the truth but the truth is the booth he sits in is that of a lie factory that lies factoring the ideas and wishes you have and he wishes you to believe he has the answers for the things you ask.

I Was Blind to Your Lies
My heartaches are too heavy to carry with every step I take. It’s a dull pain that never goes away, a wound that will never completely heal. I think of you, of how you used to make me feel Of my feelings for you, of a broken heart that was real I remember our days, the night, the moments, our times together The laughs, the tears, the whispers, the dreams, the dare I remember the way you looked at me, the way you made me feel Like I was everything, the only thing that could be real It was all bullshit, a mirage, a mask you used to conceal The deceit, the lies, the shattered heart I could never seal You said you loved me, it was all just a game A game you played so well, that I could never claim I was blind, I was gullible, the only one I saw was me The only person my heart and mind could ever see You were all in my head, thoughts, and desires I was trapped in a heart fueled with fire I thought you were the one, the special one I sought But you were just a dream, a mirage, I had overly fought One day I woke up and found you gone No goodbye, no word, not even a song I was left with a broken heart, nothing more I could do but mourn I tried to move in, find someone new It was hard, almost impossible, after all I’d been through I was stuck, filled with the same pain The same pain that made my brain insane I thought of you, and all we went all through Both joy and sorrow, laughter, and cries too. It was all a lie, a mask you used to fool. The truth hurts, so I used to be excellent. You said you loved me. That was just a play. I was trivial; my emotions made prey. I was foolishly in love, hypnotized by my want. I lost my mind; I was in it; I couldn’t recant. I thought you were the one, but you weren’t. It was just a dream, a tale I thought I burnt. I’m still looking, still searching, continuing to find A love genuine, a love mien. It’s still hard, a journey defined. It is a journey of pain and heartache, that’s fine. It was a heartbreak journey, not settled.

Enroute
The stars and planets all whipped by as Deirdre's crystalline craft sped past them. Her people, the Vlondans, had discovered that the mineral Dianthium which grew so readily on their home world not only kept their hair pink but also was a perfect material for engineering spacecraft from.
