About a boy by Roo-kie, literature

Literature

About a boy

I loved so many things before you-like poetry, dancing, and the way a kiss feels when you both mean it. Now I hear your first name and I think of your last in the same way I hear ‘Kurt’ and I think ‘Cobain, he was a wonderful man, and he was murdered’. You were murdered, too by logic and your own forms of self mutilation. When none of the books have pages and all of the covers are white will you be there in the morning or will even the memory of me be gone? 3:43 AM the sun’s not rising, but it never really rises it just runs away from moonlit passion and other silly little romantic things like that. We

Midnight-o-three by Roo-kie, literature

Literature

Midnight-o-three

“I don’t know how to handle someone like you,” she said, “with those green eyes and brown work boots. Or that strange way you form your words and side effects like I’m hanging on to every one.” Then she shot herself. He sang someone else’s song in a parking lot of a 7-Eleven at midnight-o-three “but she didn’t feel a thing and I’m not sure if I do anymore either.” Two more sips of that bitter drink before driving away to nowhere. Sunsets sell like movie tickets and we exchange estrogen for testosterone because it’s better when you’re angry. “You were never reall

Literature

One more for the road

I’m in the business of telling lies and making the same mistake like, oh, 10 or 11 times over. A sum of a few hundred words break down those ‘in-progress’ kinds of walls. But you know how the story goes. Maybe if I say it out loud enough I’ll really believe I didn’t want him back or maybe this is my shit scared confessional way of saying “I’m not trustworthy so I can’t blame you anymore, I’m sorry, so sorry. But I want to change. Is that good enough?” Don’t give me sympathy, just judgment. Just yell, fight, and scream a little until your gums are bleeding with self-satisfaction

Half-hearted by Roo-kie, literature

Literature

Half-hearted

I made you up at midnight, put you in a box, and told myself that make-believe is only okay when you’re young. I’m the lover without love making wishes on shooting stars that aren’t really stars at all but meteors trying to crash into Earth. I sat in the parking lot of some off brand kind of store until the lights faded and the city died. “That’s the world’s way of saying ‘Go home’, you know.” That was the last time I put my whole heart in. Now some pieces are hidden in my words and in other places like your eyes or under that rug with the elephant on it, the kinds of whereabouts that you

Euphemisms were never my forte by Roo-kie, literature

Literature

Euphemisms were never my forte

I take the bait, you take the blame, but the reality is that this is just a game. I play with sorrow and you play with apathy, but in the end we both have something on the line, something breakable, something worth saving. Something worth saving means something worth betting, something to lose. Something you're not ready to give up and something I lost a long time ago. So let's not be friends, you bitter soul. We've been dipping our toes into tragedy and that's just pathetic don't you think? Laugh and make a few more jokes because I'm something you won't miss. It's okay, I can take it. Lovers and liars, that's what we are. That's all we ever

Mr. Insomniac, don't say no by Roo-kie, literature

Literature

Mr. Insomniac, don't say no

“Look at those dark circles” says the girl with two black eyes that have leaked gallons of tears and pierce the very heart of you. “Love doesn’t fade and neither will they Mr. Insomniac.” She wears her tragedy as a badge smokes a dozen cigarettes and mourns for her black lungs cries because you don’t speak the same language anymore. Is she afraid to let go? Are you afraid to hold on? [Look that girl in the eyes and tell her you love her, but you don’t, drag your nails across her sweet flesh and grin out your false smiles as you hold and kiss the girl that means nothing

Stop watching me

0 min read

I don't know why I even looked, but it's annoying the fuck out of me that you guys still watch a dead account XD So, I've left, you can unwatch this account. 'Kay? The heart may freeze or it can burn The pain will ease if I can learn There is no future There is no past I live this moment as my last There's only us There's only this Forget regret Or life is yours to miss No other road No other way No day but today

Dancing with myself

0 min read

Edit Bye. ^.^ End edit I know I submit a lot of journals. People tell me that all the time. But here's another one. I've more or less started writing again. I'll be cutting back from before, I won't write nearly as much as I used to...but writing makes me feel better again. It's better than shoving crap to the back of my head and ending up with a tumor (if you watch Family Guy that probably makes more sense?)...I dunno. I'm still trying to squeeze a manip out of myself but no such luck as of yet. I've doodled some but nothing worth posting...and...well, I dunno. I don't really have anything else to post but photos. Which would be so much

Ramble ramble

0 min read

The recent poem was directed to my two dear friends and they understood it. :heart: Ugh. I'm pissy and stressed and it's annoying me. But whatever, I won't lose sleep over this stupid shit anymore. I tried and that's what counts. So as I've posted, I dyed my hair again. I think I have hair ADD now or something. This was an accident, sort of, because it was supposed to be really purple...but I like it. A lot. I think I look like Barney though XD Lmao. Ricky says I look like a watermelon. Hm. My bird is on it's way. Hedwig, I named it ^.^ Amanda's bringing it now. So that's good. Plus I should be moving, hopefully within the next six months

I am taking the bait -
What do I have to lose right?

Hope it works!

Supposedly The Phone Will Ring
Right After You Do This.

Just read the little stories and
Think of a wish as you scroll all
The way to the bottom. There is
A message there - then make your
Wish.

No attachment on this one.

!

Stories

I'm 13 years old, and I wished
That my dad would come home from
The army, because he'd been having
Problems with his heart and right
Leg It was 2:53 p .m.. When I made
My wish. At 3: 07 PM . (14 minutes
Later), the doorbell rang, and
There my Dad was, luggage and all!!

I'm Katie and I'm 20 and I've been
Having trouble in my job and on the
Verge of quitting. I made a simple
Wish that my boss would get a new
Job. That was at 1:35 and at 2:55
There was an announcement that he
Was promoted and was leaving for
Another city. Believe me...this
Really works!!!

My name is Ann and I am 45 years
Of age. I had always been single
And had been hoping to get into a
Nice, loving relationship for many
Years. While kind of daydreaming(and right after receiving this email)
I wished that a quality person would
Finally come into my life. That was at
9:10 AM on a Tuesday. At 9:55 AM
A FedEx delivery man came into my
Office.He was cute, polite and
Could not stop smiling at me. He
Started coming back almost everyday(even without packages) and asked me
Out a week later . We married 6
Months later and now have been
Happily married for 2 years.

What a great email it was!!

Just scroll down to the end, but
While you do, think of a wish.
Make your wish when you have completed
Scrolling. Whatever age you are, is the
Number of minutes it will take for your
Wish to come true. Ex.you are 25 years
Old, it will take 25 minutes for your wish
To come true).

However, if you don't send this to
People in 5 minutes, you will have bad
Luck for years!!

Go for it!!!
!

SCROLL DOWN!!!!

Now come true in your age minutes.

Thank you so very much.
