“The Prologue: My Personal Destruction of Perception”
These words fall from my mind’s safety
For all the world to see
Do you understand the difficulty, the hardship,
-the painstaking process to find the right descriptive language
Yet I try not to follow before me for their works and topics are to great
An issue for my pen, my common, simplistically brute pen.
I can only Illustrate that which I know.
The portrayal of myself reliance is key to understanding
Who I am, for the person you see,
The one you believe you see is not me.
I am truly opposite, I hide openly disguising my true identity as though my is Bruce -Wayne or Clark Kent,
But unlike him, the society of which I am apart of does not call upon me in when in -turmoil
Instead they use me as a scape goat, an excuse for why this world,
More specifically this society, is so distraught and destructively losing its way some how
I, an individual, a solitary being in this vast universe, is blamed for all that happens
Well…Today I have chosen to take off my mask, unfasten my amour, lay my sword -down, rest my shield against the sun soaked tree
… I choose to discard them all
Today, I will give you, or anyone else, a reason to pass a real Judgement, instead of the -superficial nonsense you have decided to call an understanding of the individual -that I am.

I hate Spring! Haha well the part where I live is not that bad. I live off Cypresswood but nah I remember I was a teenager here and my boyfriend at the time would take me around on his horse. Not lying. Where do you live now?
I used to live in Timberlane Subdivision but I live in Tyler now but I first moved from Spring to Van. Deep East Texas where every town has more cows than people, which is awesome

I am lost in a world of confusion
I look around to see only my shadow
Yes my brothers are always around me and I have family for support
But I am still lost…
I am happily lost in the world of my own knowledge, though it is is not vast enough
-for me
I read, write, and try to make sense of that is around me but never has the thought lasted
The thought that maybe it is not enough
Maybe I should I just give up and go back to my old ways of not giving a fuck
-at least then I had what I wanted and my family was good
But the only way to really get my family good is by doing good
Shit somebody give the answer of what I should do
Tell where to go what questions to ask
Because lately I question everything and everybody
I do not believe the lies they tell
The promises they make
Or the words they speak
All I can do is help my brothers get to a new place
Show them that there is a better way to be
I must keep clean because the marks I already have on my white clothes have turned
-into stains that cannot be removed
Stains of blood, sweat, tears, and everything else from drugs to randoms
I must lead
I must do better
I will lead
I will do better
…
Follow me to a new day because if you follow me long enough and pay attention hard enough, maybe you should be writing this all done, YOU might actually be better than I could ever be…

Robert Pattinson: “If you find a girl who reads, keep her close. When you find her up at 2 AM clutching a book to her chest and weeping, make her a cup of tea and hold her. You may lose her for a couple of hours but she will always come back to you. She’ll talk as if the characters in the book are real, because for a while, they always are. Date a girl who reads because you deserve it. You deserve a girl who can give you the most colorful life imaginable. If you can only give her monotony, and stale hours and half-baked proposals, then you’re better off alone. If you want the world and the worlds beyond it, date a girl who reads.”
I honestly couldn’t agree more.
Not a fan of this guy but he has some truth behind his words
We need to teach our DAUGHTERS the difference between:
A man who flatters her , and a man who compliments her . A man who spends money on her , and a man who invests in her . A man who views her as property , and a man who views her properly . A man who lusts after her , and a man who loves her . A man who believes he is gods gift to woman , and a man who remembers a woman was gods gift to man . Then teach our SONS to be that kind of man .
It’s safe to say the world pretty much uphalls me. Our government is using the same tactics that an elementary school bully does to gain power and control. Our society is too obsessed with consumption and The Bachelor to even care. Corporate conglomerate’s like Starbucks and Home Depot are putting mom and pop coffee shops and hardware stores about of business and all we care about is convenience. The Chicago police department is notorious for torturing confessions out of people who can’t afford a lawyer and sentencing these innocent people to death (all of whom have been recently exonerated much to the dismay of most of the state). This is common sense. Our world is a fucked up place, and i don’t need to tell you this. If you’re not angry, you’re not paying attention. People need to start paying attention.

All this talk about change, restriction, and conformity makes me think (while I drink this jack and coke) that we, you, me, and my people, have decided to conform on level that we have lost our individuality making us drones in this corporation world file with the mindless conformity of everybody in a society that we only look at the European heritage and forget our native heritage losing that in a world of confusion is wrong… When.somebody says that the changes do not effect them that is somebody else’s problem is the problem we must activily stand up for we not us not the majority but the minority the individual believes in we should stand for we leant and interpret not what we are told to believe or to interpret so with that being said we must break free of this mindless self societal indulgence of the conformed solitary state of society but at what cost? Give me death by individuality standing outside of what the rest of this allow me the idea of a better place for freedom for a beeter place of my future family and those to come let them look at our history where we all came from allowing us to come up with our own individualistic ideals and morals not based on th screwed and twisted norms of society… I for one say FUCK society and it’s bull shyt standards!!! This rant only a predecessor to my writings at a later time
Inspired by my American Lit Exam Review
I have gladly lost myself in the world of Death, Alienation/Isolation now that is all I can think of… Death: is to conform to that which has already been laid in front of me, I have killed enough of myself and now it is time live outside of Society’s suicidal confinement. Alienation/Isolation: I gladly will Alienate myself from you, society, and Isolate myself in the world I want to be in only then will I be great. By not compromising and allowing myself to live I will not be just a footnote in anybody’s history but I will be the author of my own book that will teach those to come to not follow me or anyone else but to find their own way… “To be great is to be misunderstood” -R.W. Emerson
Lying to keep a lie alive is painful especially when it is the worst lie possible. All I can say is I feel like shit and really wish I could tell them the truth but alass I cannot for I have been asked to keep quiet about it… that which I do for the love I have for my friends
Can’t stop thinking of you
I can’t stop thinking about you. You’re pretty much the only person I can relate to, the only person I like thinking about, and the only person that I want to be with & call mine. I can’t stop thinking of you & not only that, I just wished you’d think of me. You make me happy & I hope I make you happy. I just can’t stop thinking of you & I really wished you were next to me at this very exact moment.
