"To allow oneself to be carried away by the multitude of conflicting concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to commit oneself to too many projects, to want to help everyone in everything, is to succumb to the violence of our times." #escapethematrix #escapegame #carriedaway #conflictingthoughts #endviolence (at Catalina Foothills, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClbhPTqp0kW4xMtrFMQSsZzSLFWnVQFZWRpXW80/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

|Conflicted| I’ve been openly discussing - move back to LA to stay with my mom while she is in recovery (maybe longer) after a slew of mini strokes mid-heart surgery. Flying back and forth the pst month has taken a toll on my personal and professional life. I’m torn, my Mom is torn and trying to heal, my brother is at his wits end. This was taken on a day trip break from staying by her side round the clock. Thank god for my supportive husband, friends, family, and my Mother’s community as well for keeping the load bearable. I’ll be back in a month. Hold on mom.

Sometimes you just want to leave the crowd to get out & breathe, despite the freezing cold. #minnesnowta #conflictingthoughts #feelingmyfeels #itscomplicated

Do you ever feel like you're made up of more than one person? 
No, wait.
Hear me out.
I don't mean this is a weird bipolar kind of way either. I mean i feel like two different people. 
Yeah.
On the one hand i feel like Beth. The girl that likes pretty pastel 50's dresses, drinks afternoon tea and eats cucumber sandwiches and has a secret crush on Niall Horan. She loves to listen to airy fairy dance music and a sewing room full of pretty fabric and cotton suits her own to the ground. Her favourite TV shows are Gossip Girl and 90210 and she only wears make up when she wants to look cute and flirty. 
But on the other hand there's Beth 2.0. She's a throwback to 2009. She listens to the Offspring obsessively, lives in her Ramones baseball shirt and her favourite band is Suburban Legends (Yeah, didn't think you'd heard of them!) She drinks a bit too much, but she doesn't care, she's just having fun. She likes to attach spikes and safety pins to anything that she can get her hands on and has as many piercings as a person caqn have. Her hair is always a different colour and she lives in her army jackets. 
But i'm not just one person. I'm both of them. All of the good and bad things from those two people have been crammed together to make me who i am. Please don't tell me i'm the only person who feels like this.

Letter of Love - Aiden
Dear you
You probably knew this but
Your beautiful
And I don't just mean beautiful
I mean
Orange sky on an autumn day
Laying on wind blowing grass beneath me
Looking up at you 
As I get inspiration to write
Beautiful
Your eyes are like gems
Carved from diamonds
I'd replica them into earrings
To give to you
Beautiful
Prove to the world I can mold your face in the clouds 
Beautiful 
Your smile rest 
On the throne of your face
Waiting for reasons to live
again
Beautiful
Let me be the reason
Your skin shiver
Beautiful
The golden coat 
That surrounds your soul
With a touch softer
Than gods kiss
And A voice that'll take me through cotton fields
made out of baby whispers
Beautiful
Cry onto the soil of my heart so the liquid
Can grow my reasons for living
Beautiful
That'll make me sleep early just so I can
Wake up and daydream about
You
Beautiful
your the kind of beautiful
that happens once in a lifetime
Ill ask God to resurrect me
just so I can witness it again
Beautiful 
The butterflies in my stomach
Make room for doves type of
beautiful
your the type of beautiful
that makes me want to paint
A mental image in my head
And hang the painting on the walls of my mind
So when I wake up you'll be the first thing I think about
When I sleep you'll be the only thing I dream about
Your that kind of beautiful

Butterfly Wings - Andrew
Ripping wings off of butter flies
Its not fair cattipillars get to be so beautiful
Putting out the flames of the sun
Its ambition is to bright to be true
tearing words from the dictionary
Most of my feelings go unexplained
Freezing clouds in the sky
Only my eyes are allowed to rain
The first time I swam
I almost drowned in my sorrow I came up gasping for breath
And realized time is just a countdown To how much life I have left
People call me crazy, some call me weird
But they look at me with holes for eyes, and listen with closed ears
Am I wrong to need someone to love me
Before I love myself?
Or ask someone to price worth to me
so that I may know as well
Ripping wings off of butter flies
Its not fair cattipillars get to be so beautiful
Putting out the flames of the sun
Its ambition is to bright to be true

She said - Me, Andrew, Aiden
She said
That the sun doesn't rise, 
And the moon's shine isn't bright enough to light the night
And she's tired of stars falling on her
as she walk the streets
But this umbrella isn't strong enough
To cease the pain of all of her wishes 
falling from the sky
She said
That she just want to smile 
But she doesn't have any money to purchase them from stores
She doesn't keep spares in her draws
So she'll carve, curved extensions 
On the tips of her lips 
Look in the mirror and ask herself why so serious hoping
That her reflection will tell her its just a joke
All so she can laugh again 
She said
"God must be insecure
Because he created me in his image yet I hate what I see
I can feel the pressure of the cross being weighed on my back 
Every time I try and convince myself my worth
I can feel the crown of thorns piercing my head 
Every time I try and think positive 
And I'd rather die, then stay hanging on the cross
That I call my life for all eternity
Jesus, took the easy way out"
She said
"Im tired,
Tired of people telling me to keep my head up
Only to look up and see a cracking sky
Tired 
Tired of people telling me time heals all wounds
Well sorry to let you know 
The hands on my clock are disabled 
They aren't going anywhere
I'm tired, I'm just so tired, 
But I have insomnia so I guess
I will just have to keep hearing it
this drowsiness has made me weak I can barely
Open my mouth to speak 
So long I've wanted to utter these words
"Fuck, your online quotes…
Fuck, your faithless hope…
All I keep seeing are these fake faith notes
Been telling myself for years yet my face still mopes
I frown everyday and wear a smile for halloween 
I guess the demons and the ghouls bring the happy out of me
Or maybe I'm just faking, I'm a liar as it seems
Deep down I know it's real, yet I treat it like a dream…"
Maybe….its just me"
And she began to put on her pain
Like jewelry on her body
A necklace thats made from every broken promise she's ever been told 
Earrings that are made from lies 
that got close enough to whisper themselves into her ear
And the watch that rests on her wrist
Represents another time she's waited for hope
He opened up his arms to take her in 
And she said
"No, please, stay back
My eyes will cry out an ocean 
Of reasons why I don't think thats a good idea
And I will drown in them 
And frankly you're not strong enough 
to carry 10 tons of insecurities from the ocean floor
You can't hold up 10 tons of sadness thats in my heart
And there's no way you will pull 20 tons of depression
thats makes up my body, above the waters
So please, you'll only get hurt
Love me from a distance"
And he said
"I don't need to pull you up
I just need to kiss you
So that I can provide oxygen into your lungs
Long enough for my army of ShamWow paper towels
To come dry your tears
Look, I cracked a joke
So I can start chiseling a smile where your frown lives
I'll knock on its door a
And ask for the deed to your face
and I will never let him back inside"
And she closed her eyes
And started to drift to the bottom of the sea 
and extended her hands knowing he will follow
Expecting to prove him wrong
Wanting to prove him right

Beautiful Lie-Aiden
The winds whisper in my ear Telling me every secret that I've ever kept inside that I didn't want to know Every memory I tried to delete off the hardware of my mind and every thought that I tried to push to the back of my head so I wouldn't ponder  See the winds carry the fragrence that spill from your soul and the sound of the rustling trees resemble the voice that once said "I love you" Your tongue was made out golden deception that's easily passed through the gates of your lips And your eyes would sparkle manipulation  Your fingers had a touch that tricked me into beleiving you actually cared Your skin was  sticthed from the finest materials that never existed your breath reecked of lies that were masterminds at disguising themselves as truths  Girl your a beautiful lie Lucifer would be jealous And it seems like you got high off my emotions You held them in your hand And crushed them to dust to sniff off my heart See your words once rang like chimebells that sing everytime a door is open But now your words mimic fingernails screeching on the chalk board of that surrounds my mind The very image of your smile Delicately cut across my stomach but I don't feel it  Until I notice all of the feelings kept within started to bleed out I was given two options 1.patch myself up and keep those feelings inside Or allow them to bleed out and die The butterflies that once lifted my spirit Are now phantoms. Enjoying a game of kick ball with it. But I think that the worst part of it all, Is that at the end of the day .....I still love you

If I were a poet-Me
If I were a poet, I'd take peices of my mind and share them with you Please dont mistake me for a book writer Because ill tell you my life's story in 4 minute segments From start to finish to everything in between Every intermission Every deleted scene I'll tell you the story of every stain on every picture Im in And explain how I met the person holding the camera If I were a poet, I'd tell you about the day I was born On June 20 1993 6:12 am All the way to the time when I first started walking I skipped the crawling stage because by age 3  I had already realized I couldn't hold hands with my shadow  And by age 6 I was running after my dreams  If I were a poet, I would use metaphors and similies to create an image of how I felt when I first loved. Like how catipillars feel when they first realized the world was wrong They can be beautiful I'd turn tears that fall from my face into words To prove to you that guys can be sensitive to If I were a poet I'd stand up on a stage And perform and autopsy On my own body While my feelings spill out on the floor Replacing my guts I'd tell total strangers the thoughts I was never brave enough to tell myself  See if I were a poet I'd write inspirational ryhmes To inspire others to be inspirational. I'll write rhymes about standing up for those whos stuck sitting down And give verbal hugs to those who never felt the warmth of a touch  I will allow the blind to see through hearing  And the deaf to here by seeing If I were poet, I'd explain that happiness Is the feeling you get when the wings of an angel  grow from your back  And you wake up knowing that the rays Of a sunshine will continue to shine on you I'd explain that sometimes you're going to be sad But understand that a rainbow is the sky's frown Telling us thy even on our worst days The skies shine bright. If I was a poet, I may not be the greatest poet I may not be good poet But I'd write about what I'd do, if I were a poet

Breathe-Andrew
People dont understand how it feels to be depressed. How your life is slowly fading into black
  Often on nights
I find myself taking to the ceiling because it is the only thing that listens to me speak I listen to walls talk because the silence is the only time I don't hear my flaws.  And I hug the emptiness of the room because I feel its better to start out with nothing than to lose everything I look in the mirror and sometimes I feel rejection by my own reflection  This is what happens when you tell your soul you love it and it doesn't say it back When your mind tells you your heart knows best and your heart tells you not to trust your mind When your joy last for an eternity  But eternity is only a lightyear away When the air in your lungs feel like nitrogen inside of a gas chamber When the only thing your allergic to are compliments And caring and those who open their arms to take you in Help me get over my allergies People tell me I should be happy more so I stand on my hands because thats the closest  Ill ever come to a smile Every breathe take is made out of every word I wasted telling someone who I am I'm belly fat from feasting on all my insecurities my thirst is quenched from every tear that drips from the eyes of my inner self everytime I cried inside Its amazing how everytime I reach for the sun my soul bursts into flames yet it feels so cold  Did you know, that there are more grains of sands on the ground then  there are stars in the sky I know I'm straying from the poem But  understand that even a shadow leaves when it gets to dark I'm OK....no I swear I'm ok My pride is knawing  At my tongue every time I try and bring that  Into existence  I swallow my words Like bullets that backfire Traveling back to my backbone I have no support system Lonely is my disease I heard they haven't found a cure Only things to slow the process  like writing and hanging out And partying But I want to feel joy I want to feel joy like waking up knowing everything will be ok joy like walking down the street With a rainbow trail behind you Like flying on the back of angel towards a sky of butterflies I want to feel joy like walking Through a feild of clouds Like swimming in a sea of happiness drowning in laughter with school of smiles swimming around you Joy like when the wings of a peguses is pounding themselves against the sides of your stomach I want to feel like when you can go up in space not having to worry bout running Out of oxygen and your lungs exploding I want to feel Joy like when you breathe
