Head over Heels for Laine Earhart

Laine Earhart gives me goosebumps
 
Megan once wrote to me saying that I have a rockin' style.
My mom once said to me "You can only see in others what is true about yourself"
Man does Megan have a lovely style.

First off I want to say that Megan's blog has the biggest heart.
She truly cares about every living, breathing, beautiful thing. 
She is so caring.

I think Megan was a flower in her past life.
Not just any flower, but a wild flower. 
In this post she says "Wildflowers are created amongst the weeds. They grow with no outside help.  And you find them in the most spontaneous moments."
Her own quote describes herself perfectly.

You are a wild flower, honey. 

Laine Earhart, from the beginning, was one of my fav blogs. I went back into my original creative writing journal and looked at the "stolen" pages to see what quotes I originally stole from her. Laine Earhart has beautiful quotes.

---"The more I write, the more I see the real me"
(this quote was stolen long ago and became an anthem to me over this last year,  I don't think it's a coincidence I get to analyze her blog.)

---"Try changing someone's life, it might just have the opposite effect."

---"...and sunshine runs all over me and I'm the type to live in summer forever."

the last man, the lone man.


alone...

alone, but blessed...

for i know the truth. 

so i am blessed, but still alone. 

so i ask myself, is it worth it?

is any of this worth it?

"is anybody out there? can anybody hear me?"

my final ode to you

Let's not fluff up this post, let's get right to the heart of it...

You know nothing about me.

I am a frigid iceberg and you only see what touches the surface. And still, you only see what you want to see of me.

You don't know the other ninety percent of me that goes down, down, down below the surface. Seven miles to be exact.

You don't know how dark the bottom of the ocean can be. My, it gets so dark.

So please, let me be. That's the last request I have of you.

the kingdom under the moon

it's now 9:21.16 PM
temperature outside is 41 degrees fahrenheit and rapidly dropping 
temperature inside, sitting on the floor next to this fireplace, is 77 degrees. 
i don't know what your temperature is but my insides feel 98.6 degrees
it feels normal 
it feels comfortable
it feels right 
these are the moments that i have grown used to
the ones that i have come to love
the ones that i hold so close to my heart

the temperature outside has dropped to 38 degrees.
you're such a good soul, i'm such an old soul, but we are both such wild youth.
with out spines one with the dirt and our eyes falling deep in love with the moon, you blindfold me.
you tell me not to look until 10:00 because that's the time the stars show us their most beautiful side.

the night sky has never looked more alive, in our kingdom under the moon.




...it's now 09/21/16
i don't know what your temperature is but my insides feel like 98.4 and slowly dropping.
you are 2,890.796 miles away. and now, your 10:00 sky is not my 10:00 sky.
although we aren't those high school hoodrats anymore, i still see the stars through your eyes as i did that night so long ago... in our kingdom under the moon.

frayed rope

oh what the hell are these heaven's different floors?
i can't take it
i can't take it
i can't listen anymore

i've been preached to
i've been taught
i've been lied to
and then bought
well you are not the puppet master on my brain stem anymore

i cut the strings i cut the ropes
i used to know but now i don't

who are you to tell us who to love...
                       what to love...
                       when to love...
dictating love is plain absurd

Hellbound

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

If that's the mind set I'm supposed to have...

If that's the way you want me to behave...

If that's how you want me to treat people...


"Well then I'll go to hell"


Because I would rather risk going to hell than treat others the way you want me to. 


send me to my grave if you have to, but i will stay standing the whole time
