My biggest fear,
Is one day being as oblivious to my children’s sufferings,
As my parents were,
To mine
Nighttime

The First
20 OctAnd to this very droplet of time
I feel it
Within my very being,
My thoughts and my words,
From the depths of my fingertips
To the angles of my mind,
In what I have done,
In what I have failed to do,
For yet have I to find
A next
That is as pure
As the first
Nobody Knows
19 OctMaybe 1 in every million people wear the same cologne as you. And out of all of them, collectively, I might pass by one of those people in every 4 months. And everytime I do, a wave of nostalgia hits me. The sinking feeling starts, and I have to remind myself to take deep breaths. My mind begins to dart around, drastically. Flitting around from breaking to broken to not even walking straight.
One of those people walked onto this bus about 3 minutes ago.
Honesty
18 OctOkay it’s not that I have something wrong with me, as fucked up as this blog is. It’s just I take everything personally. The smallest thing will get to me, from a joke about my hair to something I say. And when it gets to me I do get really sad, and I don’t really know why.
I guess it really gets to me when my “group” don’t invite me out. I guess I’m kind of stuck between 2 groups, it’s weird. It gets to me though. It’s like, I’m just as much of a person as you are and we spend every lunch together.. WHAT is your problem? Just because I’m not as hot as the others, seriously?
And when stuff goes wrong I do lose control and hurt myself. It’s not a craving though, it’s more like in frustration. A release of tension. And I do have problems eating, I know that too. I get worried and angry and I’m hugely oversensitive and complicated. I get paranoid and hold grudges sometimes, overprotective too, and jealous. I’m probably quite annoying, and too hyper.
But you know what at least I’m honest about it. At least I don’t pretend to be something I’m not in a group of people and I’ll say what I feel and when I feel it. At least I’m not one of those people who exclude others and act like nothing happened.
And I may be fucked up, but at least I’m honest about it.
Strangers
18 OctI saw him today, I bumped into him in Ealing. We said hey, like strangers would. We didn’t make eye contact really, as strangers would. We hugged awkwardly at the end, imposed upon him, as strangers would.
Ships
17 OctOur first steps,
Pacing pavements,
And then she,
Of crowds oblivious,
In passing beggars,
She waltzed,
They danced,
Then he was gone,
Taking the sand,
Into the floor,
Never found
Piece By Piece
16 OctHave you ever cried so hard that you begin to choke on your breath? That you fall into such a state of hysteria, that you can barely remember it now?
And there you were, lying on your bedroom floor. Shaking, harming yourself, sobbing onto the cold hard floor. Desperately searching for the peace of mind you had previously learned to live without.
But one can only go so long, before they want out.

14 OctLast night I was out, I was lying opposite this boy. It was the first night I’d met him and we’d been getting on really well – his name is Matthew Delargy. We were face to face, lying down whilst our bodies were literally intertwined – leg through leg, hand through hand.
We were about to kiss, it was the second just before you take the leap and lean in. And I froze. I buried my head in his chest and let the moment pass.
Why you ask? Because the image of a boy whom of which I swore I was over entered my mind. And it was then that I realised it had been engraved in there ever since.
