I passed all my classes,
but I failed you.
I get my diploma,
but I lost you.
and I’m sorry.
I play some guitar and recite I will never regret how unhappy we both were. I’m not 100% happy with this; I stumble over a few words and improvise a bit. I’ll probably redo this later on. It’s sort of nerve-racking to do this sober, and my voice probably sounds weird.
I shall release a printed version of this, at some point in the next two or three years, as part of a collection of poems and short stories that I plan on calling your house is on fire and your children are gone.
Reblogging this in case anyone else wants to see/hear it.
Also, bonus points if you guess where I stole the chord progression from.

How the hell does a broken heart get back together when it’s torn apart?

Not sure how to say this guys…
My daughter Daisy (7) had a CAT scan yesterday. Her cancer has returned. 3rd time being diagnosed with cancer in as many years.
She has a golf ball size tumor right where her last one was.
This morning at 10:45AM she gets a PET scan to look closer and see if…
Praying for this family <3

on days when your plans fly into brick walls, and when you watch the phone but she never calls, when suddenly you become aware of your scars, and when clouds cover up the shine of the stars,
when you’re out of breath and you’re out of hope, when you’d like to shower but are out of soap, and on those days when you’re looking back, and you like where you were more than where you’re at,
go ahead and give me a call, i’ll do my best to cushion your fall, i never left and i never will, i cared back then and i do care still,
all i ask is for honesty, that when i look in your eyes you’ll look back at me, that you’ll be the man that i know you can be, if you can do that you can count on me.
Yesterday…
Yesterday was one of those days when
everything came together
Yesterday was one of those days when
the questions I had been screaming for the past few months
were answered
Yesterday was one of those days when
all the regrets I held on to
were lifted from my shoulders
Yesterday was one of those days when
I was reminded why I surround myself
with the people I do
Yesterday was one of those days when
all the tears I cried
were finally enough to refresh me
Yesterday…
it finally made sense.
That thing, that moment, when you kiss someone and everything around becomes hazy and the only thing in focus is you and this person and you realize that that person is the only person that you’re supposed to kiss for the rest of your life, and for one moment you get this amazing gift and you want to laugh and you want to cry because you feel so lucky that you found it and so scared that that it will go away all at the same time.
Never Been Kissed
