Just a day in the rain.

today,i got caught in the rain.
soaking wet,drenched and freezing as every breeze felt like ice on my skin..

In every interesting weather,I think of him.

I always have this image of him floating up in the sky somewhere controlling all the storms and windy days ;p

It was so beautiful,yet sad at the same time.

As I was walking alone, i felt ..connected.
to something.
to someone.
to something,AND someone?

perhaps to him

perhaps to the universe as well.
to my spirit,my power within.


suddenly,

I really felt the fear inside release from me..
as I smelt the rain hit the burning gravel,
earlier hot from over 100 summer weather..
as I felt the wind in my hair..

i felt so alive


finally.

a feeling of liveliness.


I was thinking of bleaching my hair blonde,until i smelt the rain.
until I realized..why?

why change?

why do my hair?
if all that matters..is this universe.
is this..sensation.right here.

how would i keep up with roots if I someday truly decide to live in a forest somewhere?
far from sallys beauty supply shops..
hahahaha
and at that moment,
hair styling felt...so so wrong and shallow to me.

and all i could think about..
was.."this is all i need in life. just me...me and the ground beneath my feet.me and this wonderful nature,mother earth and sky in the sky above me."

"Live for yourself".

Its going on 10 in the morning, and I'm sitting here thinking.

I have this anger built up inside of me...
yet its not really "Anger". I guess its more so.. FRUSTRATION from witnessing people laying down in weakness. So many people slaying their own willpower. I am hurt to see so many people..hurt themselves.

So many people.. So blind. So ...tired. So unaware.

And in the most compassionate way possible, its quite pitiful.

excuses,excuses,excuses,

only masking fear.

Skylar showed me a beautiful way of life.
A way of life,that I cannot snap out of my head.
No matter how many times I swallow or blink,its as if its engraved within me..
Hes rubbed off on me.. allover me. And I know now. I See things so differently.

I cant explain this outlook on life..
Many can pick and find little contradictions in the nooks and crannys between this philosophy if you really try hard enough.. ( i know I did,when I listened to his words at first. but it was only because I Was at a time in darkness ... so his words of light seemed so...surreal...so made up,and funny.)


to many,

sure,at times it may even seem impossible or silly..

because its pure...simplicity.,
and as humans,we are ANYTHING but simple.
so complex and troubled..so layered in depth and contrasted with complication..

but really... all in the end,

it is completely..and utterly....simple.


yet its still as if our minds cannot comprehend it.

or perhaps..fighting against comprehending it.


It depends on your desire. that's what i think.
desire to fly,or desire to sink.
so many things in this world..all operate on desire.
what we want,what we are drawn and attracted to..
whether it being positive or negative desire...
healthy or harmful desire..


Ive also realized..nothing is really official.. nothing is really long term or infinite.
An emotion,is an emotion
and it doesnt sit still in motion like dirty pond water...
like a season passing
like a tide subsiding

we change.
EMOTIONS change.
thoughts change.

unlike that dirty pond full of dead water,and lounging mosquitoes..

in life,there IS circulation.
there ARE patterns and cycles.
everything...has a cycle.
and I am personally convinced,everything passes.

may not pass for forever... but it does..pass.
may be BACK again, but only if you let it.

we all have a choice in this.

I could go into detail..

but I wont,because the answer is in:

simplicity.


Saddness is but a moment.
its beautiful to feel pain sometimes,
because what would life be without it?
what would HAPPINESS be without it?

its natural.its beautiful.

something I wrote, I love to endure in life..:

"loving,feeling and then crying and bleeding.
socializing, and having social anxiety.
being neglected,just to be nurtured.
being broken,just to heal and mend.
Giving up,and then starting allover again.
Starting allover,and then giving up again."


I think that completely sums it up.



I'm tired of thinking I "cant" do something. Im tired of doubting myself. Im tired of lack of confidence,or fear. I'm tired of taking myself for granted,and being like the millions of those...
bind...tired..and unaware.

Why do we cheat ourselves? Why do we set excuses? why do we shake in fear,only to soon crawl backwards into our shells?

What are we AFRAID of??!

Hes gone now.
And so are many people across this universe.

Before you know it, its over.


I'm angry when i see people let others,or disorders defeat and overpower them.
to me,its like they are laying down for death. Mental,maybe even physical...death.

I'm angry when I see people paint a sad face and let a hardship defeat them,
instead of FACING,CHALLANGING and DEFEATING the hardship.



I honestly cannot say I have changed this way,only because I have lost someone.
becuase that would be a lie.
he wasnt just ANY someone.
in the least bit of offense,
if he was just "any"someone.. my entire being would not flutter in the sense it is now.
my life wouldnt be changed,like it is now.

and I know everyone who knew him can say the same,without any bit of hesitation.


I watch my mother suffer everyday.
I watch her never take control over her own life.
I want her mope and moan instead of clench her fist and actually get to setting things right.
if you lay down once,you better be willing to lay down forever.
because sometimes all it takes is that one time..to get to your head..
and lie to you with bad,terribly negative thoughts..
telling you what you cant do.
weakening you.

I watch my grandparents live life like they could care less.
Limiting and cheating themselves because of their age..
treating themselves like they are cripple,or dying of cancer..
like they "CANT",like they are "UNABLE"even though they BOTH
are in perfect health.

I watch someone I love, hate the world.
The beautiful world.
telling me things..at times I Feel like hes trying to convince me into hating it too,but i wont.
everything is so beautiful.
everything is how you make it..
how you perceive it.
there are many vile things that go on on this land..
war
hatred
abuse
rape
poverty
corruption

(being an animal lover,I know the crulety and abuse that goes on just so you can have that juicy steak in your mouth)

sometimes Its hard for me to NOT hate humanity..
but then i realize..
its ok.
everything is in perfect place.

even If the economy goes to shit.
we are alive.
and we all have to REMEMBER,
it is so short
being alive,
and having the ability to live,breathe,feel,and think..is so surreal.

and can be so difficult..

but we HAVE to remember, its all about simplicity.


All these bad things,we have to accept.
we dont have to agree.

I cant honestly say im 100% one of those people who try to "Change" it either.
ITs not because I Don't want to,(because god knows, I do)


Its just naturally perhaps because I have learned to accept it.
I'm not a fan of our government.Im not a fan of people killing each other,and i'm not a fan of kfc or butcher shops hah..
but If I cant convince everyone on this entire planet to become vegetarian or vegan
and if i cant make every country get along..
then I Will have no choice but to accept.

I will stray from the things I do not agree with,and move on to create something I consider beautiful and peaceful.

In my mind,
we are all living on this land.. united.
yet we are
all placed here
separetly
individually
and alone,in our minds.

the simple cliche line: "we are born alone,and we die alone".

Is not a bitter term or phrase.

we are born alone...we live into love,compassion and feeling,and then we die alone.

we are united,yet we stray. At the same time of being in a crowd,its like we are the only one there.
all of us.

In my mind,we are all free sprited ambitious,adventurous,determined,exploring hippies
making love in wild fields and swimming naked in rivers. hahahha.

instead of living selfishly for others,
we are living selflessly for ourselves.

and thats what skylar showed me.
live for yourself.

Its been a while. Just updating/storing.

June 5th seems like just yesterday...
and I smile every time people ask me about my tattoo..
but to be as frank as a papercut,
i miss you

and some may think im crazy
and most may say ive gone mad
I admit,at times its an incomprehensible energy
the spiritual connection we had

and some may think ive lost it
and most may say the pain within,is nothing compared to theres
I admit,to the average it will seem that way
but they dont know that thing we shared

how could u care for a mind u laid
miles and miles far away
how could u feel the hands that were never felt
i wish i could say, yes

u seem just like yesterday

Now I walk around
your little fraternal twin
living on with ur mind in my heart
I wanna lay naked like you did

Your voice seems so close yet far
a dimming sound in the back of my mind
and I cry as I glance beyond our galaxy
stare into stars,is that where u reside?

how could u care for a mind u now lay
miles and miles i dont know where,yet so far away
how could i see the eyes i never stared into
i wish i could say, yes i had the chance to look at u


u seem just like yesterday

infinite
and magical
majestic,mystic
beautiful

those who know,
well..they know
and i dont have to repeat myself.

that girl u loved,
i know u loved her well
im not trying to take what u shared away from u
but everything is significant on its own,
and i know u would agree with that too

As street spirit remains on replay
I think of all the wonderful things u said
and in ur arms,u tried to guide
as I refused, I just didnt know back then..

You touched me forever,
Forget,i will never
Changed my life

you said you couldnt wait until our "iloveyous"
were screaming from inside,wanting to get out
and im sorry...
i never felt to say that
but that one night when i was in bed,
it was as if i felt it.


how could u care for a mind u laid
miles and miles far away
how could u experience the soul
that costs gas money just to feel close enough to
i wish i could say, yes

you feel just like yesterday

you said alcohol is good,
if you drink it wise
saved me from the ghosts
never told a single lie


Sensai Potter,
i am ur young grasshopper hermione
are u now.. on ur broomstick
flying high without me?

and now..
i am laughing
i am...
crying

i dont know how to label what we shared
a friendship?
acquaintance ?
affair
or rivalry

u liked to challenge
couldnt be taimed
a little blue bird ninja
in a cage

how could u care for a mind u laid
miles and miles far away
how could u feel the hands that were never felt
i wish i could say, yes


you seem just like yesterday

at times i want to walk outside
stand two feet
planted underneath
and turn around, only to fall
fall
fall
fall
backwards ..into the sky
so I could see..

So I could blissfully,luckily say...yes.


Where can I reach you? It isnt fair..
Why cant it be fair?
What if i want to see you?
What if i want to talk to you?
what if i want to HUG you?
Who will save me from the disgustingly vicious 4chan clan now?
how will I do this..without you.

I feel like no one else gets it.

You got it.
you understood.
You liked my school girl skirts and the excessive makeup I used to wear.
My bottle cap collection,and our conversations of riding on the backs of screeching pterodactyls.

You said it was okay for me to "pose slutty" because I am AMANDA..and AMANDA is NOT slutty,so its OKAY.OKAY for me to "pretend" as long as the truth was pure..

hahahaha


You loved the poem I wrote you,
and everytime I think of the millions of times after that one you asked me to write u another .. I cry.
Because I put it off. I said maybe some other time..
and yet...

wow... there isnt another time.



how could u care for a stranger u laid
on one side of this globe,the other which i play
miles and miles far away
how could u care for a cheek nude of ur kiss

i wish i could say,
i wish i could say...


yes

you feel just like yesterday.


No matter how many times we fell out of touch,
the moment we started speaking once more..
it felt like the first night.
you'd call me your little amanda,and i felt so special.
it felt so natural.

I wish there was a place I could reach you..
a door I can open,and there I will see you.
a window I can look out of,and there you will be.
a wall i can press against,and behind you will stand.

Tell me..
where can I find you?
-journal entry The day after you were gone:

"Where are you? Where can I find you? In the cracks of the sidewalk,?
within the broken gravel clumps and fragments of the street?
In the wind?? The cool air and powerful breeze,
dancing in my hair,nearly knocking me over,off my feet.

Lifting my dress,howling. Whispering to me.
Are you now the rain?
Pelting down upon me.
soaking my clothes,now transparent and pure.
Drenched hair and face,concealing my tears

are you a bird? Didnt you say you believed in reincarnation ?
that perhaps you were a bird in another life,and I was too..
that we knew eachother and thats why when we first started talking,
we instantly connected and felt the similarity...FAMILIARITY?

are you the sunset?
peering through the beautiful white clouds above?

the blazing,strong desert heat..impacting...sweating me.."



how could u care for a mind u laid
miles and miles far away
how could u feel the hands that were never felt
i wish i could say, yes


you feel just like yesterday.

will i ever fully go back to my shallow ways of eating doritos late at night and watching the paris hilton show reruns?
Will i ever be a child toward the depth of this universe?
So naive and careless to what lies millions and millions of miles beyond the crust of the simple earth.

i cant.. now that you are gone,i feel like i'm on a totally different level than the girl next to me,picking out a pair of new heels.
What is going through my mind? I may stare at these shoes..the surface of my being,desiring them so much.. but deep down, Its nothing I Want.

So many things..so many questions.and natural curiosity... a need to analyze and find..
will i ever be able to rest in simplicity again?



Potter,Im sorry i never felt enough to have u adjust
ur tie around my neck.

That girl u loved..
i know u loved her well
u said it proud
u said it yourself

i could never compare
ur beautiful love

but theres things u said,amany
and i know right now,u would tell me

time never stays.,..time moves on


what we had may not of had such a strong chance
what we had may of been to young to say romance
my hair may not be as soft
my eyes not as bright

but ur beauty,
touched my life

and some may think im dramatic
and most may say im overreacting
I admit,its completely unexplainable,irrational,nonlogical
the beautiful
connection we had
may be hard to grasp
impossible to understand

As street spirit remains on replay
I think of all the wonderful things u said and could still say
and in ur arms,u tried to pull me close
as I refused, and pushed u far away
..fuck... if only i knew then what i now know!

extraordinary
rare,special
beautiful
you are.

those who know,
well..they know
and i dont have to repeat myself


June 5th seems like just yesterday...
I miss you.

O DEAREST SKYLAR by:amanda.


o dearest skylar
your hot as fire
your lips are probably softer than
a coarse nail file-er.
O dearest thine skylar.

skylar,you like fashion and thats cool
your soul is in such luck,because i like it too
your voice,on the phone,
is like an enchanted angelic tone
O dearest skylar;holy one.

we fight alot on aim,
once on the phone,i think you almost came.
sometimes I cant stand you
but most of the time,we get along..
... like bugs in glue.
and a religious song


skylar,youre always so very positive just like the sun that shines on the world each morning
when we talk,sometimes i'm bitchy/upset or PMS suffering
but our conversations are never boring

our first conversation was of our similar interest in unicorns, i believe
arent we friends to be?
we both like the same things
i used to be your little twin
but if we were mermaids,youd have a bigger fin;
cos you are bigger than me
skylar,cant you see

o dearest skylar
im trying
to rhyming

but i am sorta failing

O skylar
your ghost stories are awesome but they made me really scared one night
if you would of been there,i would of screamed like a little boy who sounded like alittle girl,and then grabbed your muscular body so tight

o skylar i am sorry for being so nicholas addicted and mind wrapped
all those nights,I pushed you away,you probably wont ever forget that

cos i know you must think i am alittle pretty
and sometimes i feel bad for being a disconnected little girl,i feel shitty

you were the first person i ever confessed of wearing braces to
i hope you always remember this
i remember when i sent that video of a girl sucking off a guy when she was wearing braces to you
and then you were probably thinking "oh no she didnt . shes not sucking my dick"

o dearest skylar
(stand by for comment #2)
