lying_in_bed
andrea it’s amazing how incredible & irrational one’s own personal, private fears are that keep them, me, from obtaining all they’ve, I’ve dreamt of

for instance, this trouble with attachment & being abandoned has kept me from being in a relationship that is pure & true & right & fulfilling. this great fear of mine just may serve to render me alone for the rest of my life.

through the past 5 relationships & close calls I’ve had with love, it has only served to bring me & them heartache. and I know the danger of this, I’m just unable to find a way to get around it.

moonshine Love..is popular and frequently commended as if, even when the word is used as a Euphemism, It were most enjoyable. But what do those know of love who do not know that it is a cross? Surely, the Buddha was right that love is the fountainhead of hurt and misery , of suffering and despair. He also taught that life and love were not worthwhile. But to take this cross upon oneself with open eyes, that is nobility, that is devotion, that makes life worthwhile."

b..dm.d overcast...
it was raining when the carpool came to get me.

i would have preferred to stay in bed and let it rain all day

but this is Arizona, and after, all most rains in this part of town never last more than five minutes

confabulation when I'm lying in your bed
and I want you to hold me
you don't.

you turn away and go to sleep
leave me cold by the window.
I stare outside and wonder why
you abandon me this way.

in my dreams
he holds me close
arms wrapped around me so tightly.
wants to keep me warm and safe
protect me.

the only man thats done that for me
was him
not you
not you
it was the guy you've learned to despise

he did it right
he made me feel right
you do it wrong
i feel so wrong.

i only want him
i just want that night
i want it right
i want it back

i want to keep your best friend forever.

Dafremen Praise Gawd..I say...
Praise Gawd each day...

He helped me to overcome...
I remember once I couldn't get out of bed...so I sing and say..Hey!

Lying in bed got nuttin to do.
Noone to rub my head
Strumming my guitar, my only friend
It's gunna last me til the end

Don't wanna lie in bed,
Wanna get out instead
I want to feel free with activity

Above my bed was a face I saw
Looking at me so passionately
Well in his eyes I saw the truth
The truth of a rastamon
The truth of an eyre mon

Well I've got lots and lots of company..yea
Alotta good vibes flowing around me
Nurses comin and wondering...

Oh Gawd...
Is this REALLY Ziggy Marley?

Rastafari know.
I and I give praises
I and I thank Jah for....his aid
If it were not for him
What would I..what COULD I have done?
And so I say amen...

Don't wanna lie in bed
Wanna get out instead
I wanna feel free with activity

- from "Lyin in Bed" by Ziggy Marley & the Melody Makers
From the "Time Has Come" album.

the one i see you laying in my bed and i dream for just one moment that you are there to feel conforted, to smell me on the pillow, as if i make you happy. i stumbled over drunkly and make a bed on the floor for jasinda.
I crawl over you carefully and just pull my hat over my eyes and hope that i dont still smell like his cologne, but almost hope i do. Maybe then you would realize how much you should want me, how good you should treat me cuz i could have anyone.
but as i ponder choices you start to wake up. so i play along and pretend to be asleep. you cant see my eyes so youll never know. But then you reach over, and pet my hair lovingly, and i hear you laugh softly, seeming happy to see me home.

Now i wonder and i sit wanting you to still be here, laying in my bed. Why cant i remember all the horrible times.

sphinxradio i left the christmas lights on last night
and three nights before that, too
i sort of left them on for you
but also, just to be safe, because
no grendels come when there's still light

ItGirl when my demons attack. when my defenses are down. all the thoughts i ruthlessly banished to dark nether regions of my mind resurface with a vengenace. they laugh at me and point out my mistakes. they show me all the wrongs i have done, any insecurity or regret... my single regret... my greatest demon. 030719

ashmanzhou you feel
yourself is not you
become not
for we all are true
we are you
society does make
a person
what who and themselves be
for we are
nothing if not something
a spawn of societys hate
demons therefore
are THEM
the THEM that is there
to cure the emptiness of sociey
hate them
fight them
for they are not yourself
they are outside you

Bizzar My own bed. Not yours. Maybe its all in my head, but its so much harder to fall asleep when not comforted by the sounds of your breathing.

And now its even worse then ever, because as I fall into a restless sleep, far away from you, all I do is wonder where you are, and what you could be doing with your new freedom.
