'Here I Am, There I Was...
Here I Am, There I Was, Off I Go
As I pass through the doors of Kentlake High,
An overwhelming feeling hits my mind.
The students here are barely fitting,
Im so confused; my head is spinning.
Here I am.
The halls are big, bright and loud,
And every student cheerful with sound.
I turn around, look out the door,
The buses are gone, I can return no more.
Here I am.
Two steps in, my foot has slipped,
I reach right out to get a grip.
My hand catches the arm of another.
I look up, its my friend whos like a brotherEr sister!
I smile.
Here I am.
Two years later, pulling up to the lot,
The en
Sound of the car,
Picking up speed.
"Keep going!"
Montag falters,
Grip on the books,
"Don't freeze!"
Running steps,
Pull up to a stroll again,
"Half way!"
Beetle rushing, roaring,
Beetle whining, skimming,
"120 M.P.H.!"
Shuffle, talk,
break-and-run,
"Good God!"
Book dropped, broken pace,
Plunging on, yelling in emptiness.
"Seventy feet!"
Hooting, calling,
Eyes burning,
"I'm done! It's over!"
But the falling calls a difference,
The beetle cut, and swerved out.
It was gone...
What's happening?
Where are we going?
What awaits us at the end,
Where falcons are soaring?
Does glory await us,
When our lives end?
Does pain look to grasp us,
When we can no longer defend?
If we do not, then,
Who decides our fate?
If we cannot, then,
Who can leave death to wait?
Why do we travel this land?
How did we end up here?
Why do we cling to answers?
How does this control our fear?
The two twins who have never met,
Sunrise, Sunset.
The limited light we will ever get,
Sunrise, Sunset.
They share the same fate, but know not of each other,
Sunrise, Sunset.
The've no idea how they are brothers,
Sunrise, Sunset.
Their pattern repeats, and never changes,
Sunrise, Sunset.
Sometimes the space between them expands their ranges,
Sunrise, Sunset.
Forever and ever, we shall see these suns,
Sunrise, Sunset.
Never and never will they be one.
Sunrise, Sunset.
Why does the bird fly?
Why?
Why does the fish swim?
Why?
Why do the people have to fight,
Why?
And strive to believe in Him?
Why?
Why can they not stop and live,
Why?
With the truth that they control their own fate?
Why?
Why do they not forget their strife and give,
Why?
To the people whose own death they await?
Why?
Music can't help me,
Not like it did.
Music used to relax me,
Until it had more stress to rid.
Please tell me, why,
Can I not take the load off?
It leaves me pressured and sad,
And thinking people like to scoff.
I can't stand it anymore,
I want to write a happy poem.
But, the feelings inside my mind,
Only let depression be showin'.

I just got an e-mail telling me that I won't even get an interview for the job I phone screened for... The one that would have been 16.50 an hour with weekends off.
Fuck effort. I'm not trying anymore.
One show I've missed from when I was 8 years old is
SAMURAI PIZZA CATS!
So I torrent it. Now I sit here watching the first 26 episodes and while the nostalgia is great, it's such a silly show. xD
