She called for me to squeeze
Her hand so tight
By the time I got the chance
Half a bottle was in sight
She looked at me with eyes
So hazel when they linger
Seconds longer than friends
She cried, as I pulled her close.
(chorus)
She hides it all so well
No one in her life can tell
She is decomposing
From the inside out.
And all the shit seems to fall
Right on her plate
I keep wondering
Why is this her fate?
The facade she embraces
Is peeling in dismay
It's so hard to watch
Your best friend fall away.
(slower tempo)
Her crystal drops
Puddle up on my shoulder
Air thick as molasses
But she's just as sweet...
(Guitar solo)
A dull flicker twitches
in the corner of the dark,
and no one near can hear it's plea,
it's cry, it's yell, it's bark.
The light, barely visible,
the sound, barely there,
while the bleakness itself,
silences the blare.
A slowly shimmering sign,
like moonlight on a rippling sea,
a wavering ray of light and sound
trying desperately to be free.
Free of the darkness
that holds it so tight,
a sign of a promise
glows into the night.
A grand beacon of pulsing light
cuts the darkness like a knife,
a jubilant shout, a brilliant splendor,
blazing forth from what gave it life.
Though small a pin
it's as great as a tower,

Meaningful Words - Revised
if our words held meaning
how much meaning would they hold?
if we tried to measure it
would the meaning just leak out?
perhaps we could put it in a cup instead.
or maybe we are just mistaken
if our words were vessels
what is the form that they would take?
how fast would our words travel,
through the air or over the seas?
i wonder how far our words would go.
or maybe we are just mistaken
if our words carried emotion
what limbs would they use to carry?
do they have two arms like us
with hands and fingers to grasp it?
maybe it would just drop the meaning we gave it.
or maybe we are just mistaken
if these words were the truth

water hot with the scent
of your breath
if you were breathing on me

i lay back slowly

getting lost into the details
your lips are salty again, and my heart beats faster.
we\'re singing ontop of buildings to the clash,
falling in love to the volume on the stereo.
we\'re in the wind, upon horses hanging onto their manes.
saddle-less and slow-ridden, over the grassy landtops and side the riverbends.
in the beaches water, feet deep into the sand,
music from the crooning of the waves, overlapping and crashing on the rocks.
running further into the deep end, kneetops up high,
hands reached up into nothing but the air. pull down the sky,
pull down the blinds. in your arms, in your breaths,
in your heartbeats it goes softer now.

slow city street love
my fingertips and hands make shadows in the dark night colors of the room,
the text hangs out of the book like blackbirds in the morning sky.
my mouth draws open so i can peel back the words, replay the moments
and think about the best ones more.
i still wait for someone to wait for me.
at the end of the road and the beginning of another,
with a swept up face and warm eyes.
silent words but moving lips, cold breaths and warm hearts.
arms catching every poetry from the slow body movements,
the feeling of love in our stomachs, the touch of fingertips
on the top of our ears.
its slow love like paused reruns with overcasting f

I miss you so much. I'm wearing my Kelly-green armband all this week - a lot of people have already asked if I've given blood! ^_^ I know you'd get a kick outta that. Thank you so much for your art and for everything else. Love always.
I haven't been letting myself miss you like I know I do. Someday soon, though, I'll let it out...
You were always, and remain, an inspiration. Thank you so much. Missing you, loving you, thinking about you always. Rock on, girl.
Wow girl your art is amazing. I never knew it. I wish I would have got the chance to find out all the amazing things about you I never knew. You're my hero!!! I miss you so much. I love you Chelsea! RIP -McKenzie
