Although the nights've grown colder
and the leaves have fallen dead,

in the corner of my eye
there's a spriggy rose of red

Hago nada.

If faith without deeds is dead then I am a zombie.

WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

not mine

Being alone, it can be quite romantic
Like Jacques Cousteau underneath the Atlantic
A fantastic voyage to parts unknown
Going to depths where the sun's never shone
And I fascinate myself when I'm alone

So I go a little overboard, but hang on to the hull
While I'm airbrushing fantasy art on a life
That's really kind of dull
Oh, I'm in a lull

I'm all for moderation, but sometimes it seems
Moderation itself can be a kind of extreme
So I joined the congregation, I joined the softball team
I went in for my confirmation
Where incense looks like steam
I start conjugating proverbs
Where once there were nouns
This whole damn rhyme scheme's starting to get me down
Oh, I'm in a lull
I'm in a lull

Being alone, it can be quite romantic
Like Jacques Cousteau underneath the Atlantic
A fantastic voyage to parts unknown
Going to depths where the sun's never shone
And I fascinate myself, sure I do
When I'm alone
I'm rambling on rather self-consciously
While I'm stirring these condiments into my tea
And I think I'm so lame, I bet I think this song’s about me
Don't I, don't I, don't I?

what does it make you think?

a prayer

TEACH ME YOUR WAYS, O LORD, so that I may walk in the path of Truth.

my english teacher was talking today which is always great

"If you desire something badly enough, you'll get it."

that is, unless you give up...

I wish that I had open the door
If I could go back, I would
but I probably still wouldn't open it
and then for the second time I'd be saying
I wish that I had open the door


Haha

Also, today could have been a potentially horrid day. I walk into the school and the floor is wet and grimy from the snow outside. I slip and fall on my arse. Luckily it wasn't embarrassing. Then I have to write an essay in Modern World History about an impossible prompt given to us, but it actually went rather smoothly. The rest of my day was fine. So it wasn't a bad day. It was probably because right before I started writing the essay I said a loud "This is going to be the worst day of my life", and by saying that, it wasn't. Excellllent! Also, my mom got me a fake little birdie and a note that said "Roses are red, violets are blue, how was your day? Was it sweet like you?"
Hahahahaha
