“So, what’d you say?”
. . .. .
Just tell him already.
…You know you want it.

Listen once to me…

“Nothing is as good as you can imagine it.
No one is as beautiful as she is in your head.
Nothing is as exciting as your fantasy.”
~Chuck Palahniuk, Choke
. . .
I just don’t know about myself lately.
.
“We’ve taken the world apart,
but we have no idea what to do with the pieces.”
It’s only water, It’s only fire… (It’s only love)

“It’s only slaughter,
We’re only liars,
It’s only blood.”
. …..
To be wanted; to be needed- A mutual addiction.
It’s all you ever desired, Da?
Such a strong emotion...
But you sure know that, don’t you?
[ yes. ]
I know you miss it- The way it’s all played..
That’s why you choose them, isn’t it?
Because who else could control what you have obtained..
The murderers.
The psycho and sociopaths.
The unloved and unwanted of society- You crave them;
Crave the mutual addiction of the unattainable.
.
[ “They’re only thoughts that I’m having;
Thoughts safe within my head.” ]
.
To be wanted; to be needed is simple.
Oh, but to be desired by them….
True emotional ecstasy.
. . .
"You’re only crying, you’re only dying, you’re only dead."
And your compliments look good on me… (But no one knows you better)

This is my obsession.
. … ..
I watch your thirst for violence, and I wonder what it feels like…
Would the same ‘goodness’ be felt that most achieve when experiencing compassion?
What would it mean if you were ever to feel such a release?
A part of me wants to give it you.
I just imagine the sheer comfort you would feel within the grasp of pure torture,
And it pulls at my heart strings….
This is my insanity,
perhaps.
…Or perhaps I am just as evil as you.

‘Cause nobody knows it better, than the girl in the corner with the scarlet letter…

“So take a chance,
Take a chance.”
.. … .
Stop. Rewind. And reorder everything.
Is this not all you ever thought it would be?
This beautiful life you’ve created.
The world everyone envies….
Is it enough?
[ Has it ever really been so? ]
Now:
Let’s escape these all encompassing thoughts;
Keep them from slowly, surely dissecting from the inside out.
You think you want to preserve this life?
Oh, my dear love,
You’ve never wanted to preserve anything….
