Do you remember when life used to be easy
Mornings were soft and vivid
Felt like they presented new possibilities
Trees were tall and proud like our friend's eyes
Not a single trace of tiredom or disappointment
Our bikes were worn out yet beautiful
Our hearts were satisfied
Our minds empty
But that was not the case for me
It never has been
Life was destined
To be a pain in the arse .

I can't feel it, I can't touch it.
Tumblr media
Love was never meant to be easy
Or explainable
Some philosophers will argue
But I bet they know deep inside
That humans prefer crawling
Than walking .

Revolution is slower than death
I keep thinking of love in the form you perceive it ;
Lusty, temporary and young
I keep thinking I wanna change and be like you ;
Cool, knowledgeable and careless
But my past's shadows are present every night
My sheets are unclean , my hair messy , my life has no direction
I breathe the morning air and I think of bleach
I remember your tiny fingers and the moment you felt the shaved side of my head
And I breathe the morning air again
And I think of lavender.

Dead Long Before You Came
What if I cry for you and keep my door unlocked
Let you stay where lovers pray for time to be more soft
It’s no use watering my flowers while I am gone
Quench your thirst for tenderness with memories of the dawn
All that is now it’s ruined and what’s left
Is stolen away by those who kept
The glimpse of your eyes the dust from your soul
You said I was dead
I was dead long before
You came.

So before we turn into ash can you pretend we were something something that had a body and a voice screaming every friday night shaking every sunday morning So before we become food for the soil can you at least admit we once fed each other the holiest treats of all;
tenderness

A sentimentalist is simply one who
wants to have the luxury of an emotion
without paying for it.

I wanna be the floor you walk
I wanna be the socks you wear
I wanna be the toothbrush you use everyday
I wanna be your bathtub
Please let me be your bathtub
Then maybe I will be able to forget
The promises you made
Just to watch them break

I was thinking
Sadness is the only thing that lasts and keeps us alive
No matter how everyone likes to dislike that fact 
Sadness is pure and not deceiving
You can not doubt it , it's there and you feel it
and have every reason to feel it however deep you want
So go fucking deep
Don't listen to the crap they say
Oh you are miserable , you are dramatic , you are always sad
Fuck you cunts, why would I be anything else
What exactly is happy? I mean can anyone say what happiness is?
Can anyone describe it or even recognize it?
It seems to me that we are more familiar with hell rather than paradise , even the word hell is more appealing
I have been happy , but with happiness comes doubt and questions
With sadness comes drinking, calls you shouldn't have made, words you shouldn't have said, lovers you shouldn't have loved , empty beds, cigarettes, closure
Choose sadness and go all the way
Feel it as deep as the ocean
Let it cover your lungs
Let it fuck your brain
Till you know its face damn well
And the next time you're laying on the grass on a Sunday afternoon
Think to yourself
O that day I was fucking sad
But today the sun is on my side

Legs, legs, legs
When I see girls I only see legs
Then if the music behind the bar is good
I notice the mouth
Most of the times it is disappointing
So I say to myself
Next time stick to the legs
Funny little things
Long or short , thin or well shaped
How could anyone be attracted to legs ?
Maybe it is not a manner of attraction
But a manner of distraction
For sometimes legs are just more interesting than minds
or words, or mannerisms , or inventive ways to impress that often fail
Legs not hands
Hands can touch
but legs can run

alone with everybody
the flesh covers the bone and they put a mind in there and sometimes a soul, and the women break vases against the walls and the men drink too much and nobody finds the one but they keep looking crawling in and out of beds. flesh covers the bone and the flesh searches for more than flesh.
  there’s no chance at all: we are all trapped by a singular fate.
  nobody ever finds the one.
  the city dumps fill the junkyards fill the madhouses fill the hospitals fill the graveyards fill
nothing else fills.
-Charles Bukowski [ Love is a dog from hell ]

and it is dawn
the world
goes forth to murder dreams....
and it is day,
in the mirror
i see a frail
man
dreaming
dreams

I swear I am gonna fucking explode in the fucking train
You know I don’t like crowds and I dont like mess
But I have become a thief for you my sweet love ;
For the gap between your breasts means more than the blood inside my veins
3  2  1
I was dead long before we met .

we are for each other:then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life’s not a paragraph
