Incompatible
Lately when I've been talking with people I've been stepping outside of these conversations and thinking about how much I simply could not care less about what they ate for breakfast this morning, or their constant bickering about other people. I'm sick of these superficial conversations filled with anything but substance. I'm sick of people making such a big deal out of these things that are trivial and futile. I don't understand how any of these things matter in the long run.
Why can't people just live their lives without any of this negative shit hovering over them every single day.
I want to have a conversation with someone who's words bring forward passion or inspiration not self pity or resentment.
I feel like I haven't really been resonating with anyone for a while now. Maybe I'm simply incompatible.

"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan's men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I fancied you'd return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)"

Beautiful
This lady is just...no words
count me the stars
on your ceiling this night
those trapped inside the cracks and webs
on purple pages
blue
those reflected in your sleepy eyes
scattered in your lashes
those that breathe and dance
and those that calm the view
count me the stars
on your ceiling this night
count me the stars
on your ceiling this night
those trapped inside the cracks and webs
on purple pages
blue
those reflected in your sleepy eyes
scattered in your lashes
those that breathe and dance
and those that calm the view
count me the stars
on your ceiling this night
count me the stars

“because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes ‘Awww!’”

This is what procrastination does to me
I was watching a movie the other day and one of the characters said something like 'it's human nature to bounce back and get over things'. I then thought about the complete relevance and truth of this statement, and not just my truth but the universal truth.
It's in our genes to recover. The want, the need, the thirst for something more is always within us even when we have fallen down, all we want to do is to escape or to improve. All we want is for the pain to go away. I don't think anyone actually enjoys living in complete misery. So why doesn't this thought help change or comfort us when we are feeling like our troubles are the biggest and there is no way out? It's because we are blinded by the thoughts that are relentlessly roaming around in our minds, these negative thoughts that don't seem to have an off button. It would be easier if we could turn them off instantly but hey where's the fun in that? Life isn't about the easy way out. It's about finding strength in your misery. If happiness was just handed out to us like a piece of paper would it carry just as much value? Would it even exist?
The most important thing I've learned all year is that time helps you heal. Everything passes with time. Pain isn't something that you get over-it's something that you learn to live with and you will learn to live with it because it's in your nature to survive. You weren't born to throw in the white towel at the first sight of a challenge. You were born to live through it.
