Thoughts

I think maybe I will switch around some things on this platform of my thoughts. And I might just finish that short story I did. I really have no excuse as to why I haven't finished it sooner but I don't know I just haven't felt like it. Really I haven't felt like doing much of nothing to be honest with you. It might have to do with the fact that I've stopped writing and getting all the crazy ramblings in my head out. I kind of feel better already just typing this. I don't know how to explain my connection to writing, it's been something I've been doing for as long as I can remember and for some reason I can better express myself through pen and paper or in this case keyboard and blog. My mind is a complex highway that hardly ever stops moving and to let it all sit in my head and marinate can't healthy. I think the first thing I'll change is the background and then perhaps work on the short story I can't seem to get my mind around.

Dreaming Goals

To elaborate on today's quote.

I have dreams.

We all should. They give you so much to look forward to, to keep you sane when you are closer to insanity.

Goals, I have them too.

We set them to give our lives meaning. To know we can achieve something, anything we put our minds to.

But when life doesn’t go the way you planed it, like it usually does what are we to do then? I understand the idea behind the two but I wonder sometimes what’s the use of even having them? Life won’t just give them to you but it will make it harder to get in the same vicinity of them, let alone obtain them. Are they things to make life more bearable? Or could they just be one of life’s cruel jokes? I don’t have the answers but I know I shouldn’t give up on either one.

Self Talk


I don't know why I over analyze the way I do. Maybe it's my desire to understand everything about life. But does anyone really understand life? My mind is always racing with thoughts that I can't help but think and choices I don't know if I should have made. Right now, at this stage in my life I can't get this saying out of my mind "the choices you make now will have an affect on you for the rest of your life." I try to live in the moment and when I do here comes my over analyzing mind wondering if I might have made a mistake. To tell the truth I hate thinking so much, it gives me headaches. But I love it cause it gives me a better understanding of myself. Which in the end is what is most important in life. So I guess I will continue this hate/love relationship till i don't need the love anymore. When that will be though I have no idea, with all this self analyzing and contemplation I'm still lost and confused.

Older Stuff


No Manual
The sun is high in the sky
But I'm so dark inside
Emptiness is my mind
Nowhere to go or hide
The age old question
What am I to do with my life?
Is the only thing I'm thinking of
The choices I make now
Can affect me forever
What am I to do?
I have no clue
Why is there no manual?
To guide you through this ride
How are you to survive
In such a trying time
The heat of the sun is beating on you
But you can only feel the cold in you


No More Sun

What do you do when you can' t cry anymore, when it isn't possible to shed a tear, your body just won't allow it.Tired and frustrated, it doesn't even make any sense being depressed anymore. You are so far past that, you don't even know what to call it. Swelling stress headaches only have you feeling worse.
And there seems like there is no end in sight. How are you to manage and exist, cause really that is all your doing isn't it?When the weather reflects your gloomy mood, there's no sunshine here today.

Will there ever be again?


Sour Lemonade
Closed in spaces

Dark, damp places

Longing to be free

By gods good graces

Lonely thoughts

That take over your mind

Willing you back

To the trenches

Of the mind

Running, running but can't escape

Fighting, Fighting but will not break

Why is life the way it is?

Why must we suffer, even the kids

They say when life gives you lemon's make lemonade

But what happens when the lemons don't make the grade

Spoiled and rotten much like society

What are we to do then?

In this time of impropriety

Pop open do my eyes, awaking from a deep sleep. Takes me a moment to gather myself while I realize the time, the dead of night. When most things are lost in sleep I lay awake..thinking..my mind moves at such a rampant rate, it's a wonder with my horrible direction i never get completely lost in it. Staring up at the ceiling, always am i analyzing life's meaning. What is my purpose, what was i put here to do? Questions i ask myself daily, answers I wonder if I'll ever know. Life is ever changing though, so might be my answers....... My eyelids start to get heavy and thoughtless dreams hover over me. I can feel the sleep surrounding me, but i know this conversation is never over. My mind and I will continue to have this battle but for tonight it is done. I will not wake again until i feel the sun.
