Weston, you know you could've stopped him. You're bigger and stronger than him and you could've stopped him from hurting me. Why didn't you? Do you like to see me getting beat up? Maybe it's seeing me trying to hold back tears from the pain? Maybe you like laughing at me when a tear slips out. Even if you hate me, I always stop him from hurting you, even though he hurts me because of it. You could've stopped him.

hidden within anything is everything

Mar and i are very different from the rest of the family. I'm positive we are.

It's Real

There are many who turn their faces;
Preferring sunsets and happy places.
Because what's in our eyes chases--
Chases away their dream-lands with reality cases.

Little kids crying 'cause Daddy left home;
Lost teenage girls with no where to go;
Then there's that boy pushing pills down his throat--
But you still won't see reality.

A young mother beat to death
Protecting her child with her very last breath;
A hungry little child within a hidden cleft
All know the road of reality.

A premature woman sobbing on the bed,
After what she's done, she wishes she were dead;
The empty-eyed boy with the gun held to his head:
Still, you won't think of reality.

In our world, very little may seem
At all as you thought it would in your dream.
Suddenly seeing, you begin to scream--
Now you know--reality.

-J. K. Maxwell

I look into my mirror
And she stares back at me.
Long we glare at one another;
No end is close to see.

Who's eyes within this face are set?
Who's hair of golden hue?
Who's tears are these that stream
From eyes of darkest blue?

Who's face is this, so very sad?
Who's eyes with shadows wrought?
Who's brows now crease together
With every weary thought?

I smile at this stranger,
Conjured from out my mind.
To my surprise, she smiles back;
At least she has the time.

I laugh aloud, and so does she,
'Tis like we're both the same,
Soon I find myself wondering
'Does she maybe have a name?'

We start off simply looking,
And then we get to talking,
Soon, we do it everyday;
I before the mirror stalking.

I stare into the mirror;
But not her face I see:
Instead, there is a demon there,
Reaching out for me.

I try to run away,
But the demon from the mirror
Follows, grabbing for me,
Its hands are getting nearer.

I get a close up view of it,
And to my horror find
The face it wears upon its head
Is nothing less than mine!

Terrified beyond all words,
I look, and pray to find
Something with which to break
The mirror, left behind.

A book, it is my saviour!
I throw it at the glass,
The demon- now it shatters,
Upon the lively-hood of my past.

I fall with it to the floor,
I share this demon's pain.
Horrified, I realize
All my efforts were in vain:

The mirror held the image
Of what I had become.-
My mind now oh so broken-
My body begins to numb.

I stare blindly at the mirror,
Now shattered on the floor,
Millions of tiny images
Of what is never more.


Broken Mirror
J. K. Maxwell

You think you're all messed up..
You think you're not quite there..
You think that there's no point..
That no one really cares..


Your life keeps getting worse...
Nothing ever seems to go right..
You are crying all the time..
Wishing to see some light..


Your body keeps on crying..
Your heart screams in despair..
Your soul mourns in sadness..
Wishing someone was there..


Your skin begins to tremble..
You think how to end the pain..
Then a thought comes to mind..
And then it begins to rain..


You find yourself on a bridge..
About to end it all..
Your foot reaches the edge..
And then you begin to fall..


As you fall into darkness...
Your life flashes before your eyes..
You smile to yourself..
Knowing it was all lies..


You're falling down to hell..
Then from your mouth a scream..
You let it all go..
Your hope, faith, and dreams...


Then you hit the ground...
Your eyes wide in fear...
Your body hurts and aches...
You wish it would end here...


You look around and find...
You're in a small white room..
It's pouring rain outside..
Thundering going boom..


You close your eyes and hope..
That God will kill you now..
You don't know how much more to take..
You don't know when or how..


Then around the corner..
Your eyes begin to see...
A girl silently crying..
That girl being me...


I look up at you...
And I meet your face..
You looked so scared and angry..
I know you hate the place..


I see you through the window..
A tear rolls down my cheek..
I can't stand seeing you like this..
It's not all slick and sleek..


A smile curls your lips...
As you hold that knife up high..
I scream no out to you...
Then it falls from the sky...


I ran inside the room..
I saw you lying there..
Covered all in blood...
It was everywhere...


I landed on my knees...
Holding you close to me..
Crying like I never have...
Wishing it wouldn't be..


The next day you had a funeral..
Your family and friends came..
You didn't know they loved you..
All of them the same...


Maybe if you looked around..
You'd have seen so many care..
That someone has always loved you..
Someone's always been there...


I hope you lie in peace...
For the rest of time...
I pray that you'll be happy...
That God always keeps you mine..


I loved you then and always will..
With every inch of my heart...
I'll keep you right here safely..
I promise we'll never part...


So to anyone who thinks you're lonely..
Open your eyes and see...
That someone always cares...
And that's including me...



it's not mine, but it's a beautiful dirge

so tired...clayton's guitar playing was...captivating, enrapturing, spellbinding, beautiful....the first time in my life that i've ever just sat on the edge of my seat with my mouth hanging open for music. i don't care if everyone thinks that now, since i was clapping hard and grinning like an idiot, i like, him: anytime he plays during break, i'm listening!....so beautiful....can't stop saying that....awesome, wonderful beautiful music...

You're just like any other guy i've ever had any kind of relationship with: you just wanted to use me. Even if we're just friends, you used me. i would try to make you feel better, then when you did, you'd leave and i sit and wait for you to come back and talk to me like we used to. you never do.

I thought you would be my friend,
Till the very end.
I thought, maybe, you were the one.
But now you won't talk to me
So I guess your fling's done.

i need friends, but not friends like you! i don't need friends that use me to make themselves feel better, or give them momentary happiness, comfort, w/e: i have enough guys who want that already! i told you i would always be there for you, i tried to make you feel better when you were sad, every time you didn't want to talk, i told myself, "he has a reason.", I NEVER TRIED TO HURT YOU!!! but now that you feel better, and have someone else to comfort you, you don't need me. I would say that i don't care, but i don't lie about things like that. Know that tonight, i'll cry in my pillow, as i did so many other times for you.

Could it really be you?
Do my eyes seek to fool?
I've waited for this long,
How I've dreamed and held on,
But when do dreams become reality?

While you held me tenderly,
I knew within my heart
That no matter what happened,
The love we have shall not slacken:
True love holds stronger than a grave.

In the night, we'd sit and watch
The moon travel 'cross the sky and talk.
You would gently caress my hair,
Looking into my eyes with care.
True love holds stronger than a grave.

Sometimes, you'd chase me around,
Laughing, as we both fell to the ground.
It was so much fun just to be with you,
Know that however much I loved you, you loved me too.
True loves holds stronger than a grave.

The trees above you burst with color,
The vibrant, beautiful colors of summer.
All alone, I stand there, smiling slightly
For even now, I see you, laughing lightly:
True love holds stronger than a grave.

Stronger Than a Grave
J. K. Maxwell

She sits here
In the soft shade of the graceful willow
She knows know he won’t come
But still she waits for him
To ride in on his white horse and save her life from this chaos
The one she trusted most betrayed her
Sticking swords through her heart before leaving with another
Her heart sores thinking someday
Maybe she’ll meet him
See him
Touch his face
She longs to know the real him, the one she’d never met but always loved
Although she knows like many others that this wish will never come true
She still holds hopes
Grasping on to them with every ounce of strength without moving a muscle
All at the same time
As the insanity of the moment threatens to consume her whole
She knows she’ll stay afloat in the wake of these new terrors


She understands why he may leave her
On this hill of flowing nothingness
Leaving her to listen to the mournful song of the winds
As she waits for her rescue from her demons
The sky a shattering blue above
The mocking green below
She sits in between leaving and coming
A child trapped in the wrong form
Always outside looking in
On everything good she’s been blessed with
She left nothing
But has everything
Her heart aches
Despite her true luckiness
Never stopping to the side of light

not mine but ain't it perdy?

ya'll gotta go there!! it's a quizz, but it's so true!!!! so right it's wrong...

"Here's to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The Round pegs in square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can praise them, disagree with them,
quote them,
disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.





Because they change things.
They invent.
They imagine.
They heal.
They explore.
They create.
They inspire.
They push the human race forward.
We make tools for these people.
While some see them as the crazy ones,
we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world,
are the ones who do."
-Steve Jobs

deja vu
that's all i got to say to you
guess they all label me a fool
but this is just what i do
if you got a problem with me
just don't tell me
i got enough problems with myself
without you addin' to em
no maybe i don't need this
maybe this is foolish
don't ask my how, or why
if you push hard enough, i think i'll cry
maybe i am a loser
but loser always win
in the end is all that matters
at least to me that is
i don't know, and i really don't care
whether or not you'll be gettin' this over there
doesn't matter so much to me anymore
i've learned not to care
is that a good thing?
well hell, i don't know
sometimes it is i guess
when you don't want feelings to show
but maybe if you do
no one will be there
to tell you that they care
still, it don't matter so much anymore
my hearts been trampled on the floor
still it don't really matter anymore

          Deja Vu
             J. K. Maxwell

You're long gone,
You're not here
Left me by myself
To fend for myself
But by now
I should've known
It's not really your fault
No, honestly, it's mine.
Never expect of someone
What you know they won't give
Or maybe what they can't
While they say only fools
Long for what they can't have
Then I guess I'm a fool
But i really don't care
If one only went after
Things you knew you could have
You'd never find what you wanted.

            Gone
              J. K. Maxwell

best to start all things at the beginning:
During church today, i was like super bored because the pastor didn't keep his talking on the subject quite enough for me to get what he was saying, so i kept staring out the windows and thinking about Trevor and what we could do alone...well you get the point. also i was looking at Chris, because he's funny and was paying about as much attention as i was, and he smiled this weird way and i couldn't do it, so i stuck my tongue out a weird way. He did that too, cept he's got a tongue ring so it's cooler when he does it. Made me laugh anyway.

after church, we went to Pizza Hut for lunch, then picked up Caleb's dad, then went home, then went to Jellybean's (skating rink). I listened to Greenday, and Nickelback on the way up, half asleep and half awake. (i had stayed up really late last night) Josh, joshua and caleb were already there, so i hurried up and put the blades on. We had a blast!! uber uber UBER time!!!

Oh yeah, after we finished doing the chicken dance (on roller blades, mind you) the guy dressed as a kangaroo backed right into me!! I fell over on my butt, and Josh and calebhelped me up. When i got up, the kangaroo was standing right there giving me a thumbs-up, and i punched him right in the stomach, smiling agreeably. it was later told to me that he did it because he thought i was cute. (knock me over because i'm cute? WTF?) but whatever.

After that, we quadruple skated which went well. I don't think i've ever skated so fast, or so long and i've got blisters all over my right ankle (onyl the right one? it's weird) but i had an awesome time...they played my favorite song though!! or on of my favorites but anyway they played WELCOME TO MY LIFE!!!!! i loves that song!!!!

Yellowcard
» Empty Apartment


Call me out

You stayed inside

One you love

Is where you hide

Shot me down as I flew by

Crash and burn

I think sometimes you forget where the heart is



Answer no to these questions

Let her go, learn a lesson

It's not me, you're not listening now

Can't you see something's missing?

You forget where the heart is



Take you away from that empty apartment

You stay and forget where the heart is

Someday if ever you love me you'd say it's okay



Waking up from this nightmare

How's your life, what's it like there?

Is it all what you want it to be?

Does it hurt when you think about me?

And how broken my heart is



Take you away from that empty apartment

You stay and forget where the heart is

Someday if ever you love me you'd say it's okay



It's okay to be angry and never let go

It only gets harder the more that you know

When you get lonely if no one's around

You know that I'll catch you when you're falling down

We came together but you left alone

And I know how it feels to walk out on your own

Maybe someday I will see you again

And you'll look me in my eyes and call me your friend



Take you away from that empty apartment

You stay and forget where the heart is

Someday if ever you love me you'd say its okay

It's okay

It's okay

me loves this song!!

At Cavanaugh Park
Where I used to sit
All alone in the dark
And dream about things
That I cannot say
You always said denstiny
Would blow me away
And nothing's gonna blow me away


At Cavanaugh Park
Where you used to take me
To play in the sand
And said to me, "Son, one day you'll be a man.
"And men can do terrible things."
Yes they can


And there was never any place
For someone like me to be
Totally happy
I'm running out of clock and that
Ain't a shock
Some things never do change
Never do change


At Cavanaugh Park
We used to get high
Watching teams as they fought
They loved my friend Adam
But he always got caught
Man, that kid made fucking up look cool
Aren't we all so cool? No, No...


And there was never any place
For someone like me to be
Totally happy
I'm running out of clock and that
Ain't a shock
Some things never do change
Never do change


Never do change
Never do change
Never do change


At Cavanaugh Park
Where I used to think
That this life would be good
And I would do things
That I thought that I should
And no one's going to tear me down


And there was never any place
For someone like me to be
Totally happy
I'm running out of clock and that
Ain't a shock
Some things never do change


And there was never any place
For someone like me to be
Totally happy
I'm running out of clock and that
Ain't a shock
Some things never do change
Never do change
Never do change
Never do change

Sometimes, you make me so mad I want to push you into oncoming traffic... but then I realize... I’d kill myself trying to save you...





Meeting you was by fate, being your friend was by choice, but falling in love with you was out of my control...
