Life is complex and prone to being pedantic Always little things crawl, flutter and creep in. Nesting in cracks in our psyches Gibbering, whispering and scratching on sanity’s walls. Messages without form or reason Teasing us to come out And blend in. ↗

I'd love to write some porn, but I don't know if I have the right engines. When I was a young man and I was tempted to write porn, imaginary parents would appear over my shoulder and read what I was writing; just about the point that I managed to banish the imaginary parents, real children would lean over my shoulder and read what I was writing. ↗

Kiss a lover, Dance a measure, Find your name And buried treasure. Face your life, It's pain, It's pleasure, Leave no path untaken. ↗

Remember children, once I am gone I will be part of it all Everything will be me and together be free The songs of the birds will be my voice in joyous refrain The caress of the soft summer breeze will be my touch from afar The sunset in glorious golden red hues, my display of love The soft murmur of the stream as it lulls you to sleep my lullaby Close your eyes and open your heart that I may touch you. There shall I dwell ever close, embracing you with every beat of your heart Smile and feel the joy I share now with you. ↗

Seriously, I’m totally weirded out by the girly nature of this conversation. And yet, it’s kinda like you’re growing up. Do you think Judy Blume made a book about adolescent vampires? Are You There God, It’s Me, Merit?” Mallory snorted, obviously pleased with herself. ↗

It's like the people who believe they'll be happy if they go and live somewhere else, but who learn it doesn't work that way. Wherever you go, you take yourself with you. If you see what I mean. ↗

I was kidnapped by aliens, they came down from outer space with ray guns, but I fooled them by wearing a wig and laughing in a foreign accent, and I escaped. ↗

He smiled and squinted at me again, tilting his head up and to the right as he stared. “Maybe what I’m attracted to in you is more than your looks and your brain and your humor.” He leaned closer like he had a secret. “It could be your soul,” he whispered. I pushed his cheek until he was squinting at the door to the kitchen instead. “Is this when you tell me I’m your soul mate, O’Neill? ↗

Look at Neil Diamond. Was he the cool guy? No, he was the housewives' guy. He didn't try to be what he wasn't. He just did what he did - made great music, was a good entertainer, nice-enough guy. ↗
