Post One Hundred: Delusions of the Light.

Blinded by the visions of wealth and prosperity.
They see too much when the sun is high and the world is bright.
This is the time that things are waved before their faces

And like greedy little children
they reach out and grab and consume every bit of it.
Far more evil happens in broad daylight.

But people need to place the evil somewhere,
somewere they cannot see it, the Darkness of the Night.
That...is why ghosts haunt and demons prowl.


At One,
Simple, Cared and Cherished.
Complex, Neglected and Abandoned.

She slipped the shoes off her feet,
and felt the cool hard wood as she passed...
flitting through the fiery colours of the sunset.

Everyone, my passion in life is simply this: Simplicity

Every stroke of God's mighty paintbrush
blending seamlessly to create...
Gold Drama
Blue Passion
Russet Flare
Orange Contentment
Red Desire
Auburn Peace
Painfully Exquisite Beauty..
Taken for granted as each day fades to night.

Everyone, my reasoning was simply this: Fascination.

The beauty of his broken and tortured soul...
the mystery and the sadness of his eyes.
He fascinated me from the start,

Reckless, Joyful and (hopefully) Enlightened
Scared, Angry and Confused,
By Seventeen.

Sunshine and Shadows...

The threads are starting to unravel.
What a pleasant thought.
I'm holding back an impatient sigh.

Oh, that lie will come back to haunt you.
Told You So's blending with Spiteful Glares.
What a pleasant thought.

Fumbling for the memories...
That. Now that's one I'm surprised I've forgotten.
What a pleasant thought.

If I could brew paradise in a white Styrofoam cup...
If he were only as beautiful on the inside as he is...
There'd be nothing but Sunshine and Shadows.

What a pleasant thought.

It's A Damn Shame...

We all know 1 and 2...But what about 3, 4, and 5?

My Salvation?... Or My Damnation?

Is there anything to hold onto?
Or am I already too far gone?

Blundering Through...

He tried to decide the best way to walk over to her. Running would seem too eager, but he didn’t want to slowly stroll over there and appear uninterested. Then he had an epiphany...

She was just as drunk as he was. She probably wouldn’t care...

He ran.

Success...hmmmmm...

I was at graduation yesterday, listening to the motivational speeches given by the motivational speakers... and David Douma. They were telling us about how we need to dream big, juggle our raw eggs, dare to risk... stuff, like breaking our eggs while juggling them... etc.

I honestly don't think that everyone can succeed in life. I know that sounds extremely pessimistic of me but I thought about it and it's true. Life is graded on a curve, When something is graded on a curve you need people to fail in order for some people to ace. Society is structured the same way. If everyone, everyone didn't give up, if nobody settled for mediocre... It just... wouldn't work.

I don't know if I'm making any sense here... But seriously Fast Foods chains wouldn't have like any employees to flip them hamburgers (but that might be a good thing because then McDonald's would no longer exist), We wouldn't have anybody to mow the lawns of big corporations/businesses (and the LDS temples), And we wouldn't have any bums sleeping on park benches and squating in abandoned buildings (well alright that has nothing to do with my point I just felt like I needed a third thing there... but you get the idea)

Basically, "Stand Up, Stand Out." has a reciprocal for people bound to fail, "Lay Low, Blend In."
