Amanda Parker, Letter

Dear Runner to the right,

Running.  Running.  Running.  I have barely moved an inch.  How did I get so tired?  Who am I?  When this smoke clears will I be able to tell your ashes from my own?  Something will happen, something must happen.  Some people have God.  Some people have sex.  Some people have money.  Some people, some people… I have to have this.  The idea that the magic of this moment is what all the running was for, is for.  I'm here and in this second, I am something.  Do you hear me?  Sometimes I don't even hear myself.  I've been trying to make it for so long I need to believe there is a reason to make it.  Do you believe?  Clap your hands if you believe!!!!!  This isn't about God or sex or money.  It's about me and you and knowing that none of those things are really anything if we don't want them to be.  This is a big FUCK YOU to everyone and everything that has been trying to break us.  This is for when you are tired and lonely.  This is for when the loss is a little more than the gain.  I am here with you.   I am clapping!  I believe.  

Love,

Me

"Shoes for Sale"

-Do you want to buy my shoes?

-Shoes filled with deterred vision, sleepless nights, and hopeless dreams

-heartbreak, stomach-ache, and mustered fantasies that never seem to out weigh my reality

-these shoes hold unremarkable scars of the past along with unrefined cuts of the present

-with a fate that seemed heaven sent it's evident that the night air I dreamed upon turned to dust in the thick of all my wishes

-my mentals cannot handle the bars of steel confinement they remain behind

-this world filled with disappointment anointed with a drop of pain brings me to levels deep below anger and depression

-I awake in cold sweats to realize that my life mirrors that of a despised man I have never met

-often I wonder if God shed a tear at what a cold hearted offense I've become

-drained of happiness and joy yet surrounded by hate and disdain, my soul weeps at the amazement lost in these weary eyes of mine

-for so long have I reached at destiny's heals to find that soon she will wither in the wind like a mirage in the distance

-to maintain what sanity I have left, I have resorted to clouding my lungs with the mystery of what's beyond the grave

-yet you judge me as if you're better than the breath given to me

-so I ask again

-Sir! Do you want to buy my shoes?

Matt Faircloth "She Said"

she said, she said, she said
to go with the flow
she said, she said, she said
that I should know
She said, she said, she said
that I am a friend
she said, she said, she said
and I'll stick with her to the end

she said, she said, she said
that I'm always so depressed
she said, she said, she said
that while I'm doing my best
she said, she said, she said
to loosen up
she said, she said, she said
that while I know I'm turning it around

I have changed for the better
this time it's going to be different
no more being down on myself
float on by, good time spent
She is my friend
And I know this well
Only time could mend the pain
of when I once fell for her
She is my friend
she said, she said, she said
she is my friend
she said, she said, she said

Annie Holland My life is cluttered

As I walked into my bedroom tonight I realized how badly my life is cluttered. I have a path to get around my room. To some this is just a messy room, but to me it shows that I am very disorganized in my life. I may look like I have it all together but trust me on this I don't! Sometimes I let the days go by as if I was a boat floating on the open sea. I need to realize and grasp the fact that Shit is going to happen and I am going to have to deal with it (pardon my language) I have to realize the fact that I may not have my happy ever after fairy tell story! Good things come to those who wait. I try to be positive in my life with everything I do. Man let me tell you its not easy. People think I have it made. I do I mean I know I do. I have a amazing family and amazing friends! BUT!! Needless to say why do I feel like so fed up with my life and with school and with everything else.! Why cant I talk to my parents the way I can talk to my pastor at church. Why this! Why that! It seems this is all my life is going around and I don't like it. I want to stop asking why!! Man it felt good to get that out there!

Amanda Parker, What The Mortician Will Find When He Opens Me Up

What The Mortician Will Find When He Opens Me Up

 

A history that's long forgotten

Laced with something sweet and something rotten

A scattered thought, a ghost or two

A worn out Converse tennis shoe

A fetish that would make you blush

A single word that means too much

Calamity you can't undo

A promise that you never knew

A slightly feline disposition

The traces of an old addiction

A pinch of hope, a dash of soul

An ego that I might have stole

The Giving Tree, some Hemingway

And a warm, safe place for you to stay.
