[hometext] => I wrote this on my birthday
[bodytext] => Another set of crossroads fades into view, Paths filled with broken hearts and private fortresses, Will you walk into oblivion once again? You make a closed fist into an open palm, When the ruse is revealed you play the doting victim, Will you finally draw that line in the sand? If you could get by without inertia, If you could think of all the fire in your wake, If you could give- never wanting in return, Could you really be what you hoped? If you could put in motion electric dreams, If you could prove your worth to the ones who matter, If you could finally be proud of yourself, Would it hurt less when I gazed on my reflection? Handouts and scraps on the table of failed ambition, The smell of lingering affection stained your pillows, Will you ever really get those memories back? Forged into a timid monstrosity, Trivia abound but knowing nothing of what matters. Could you put yourself aside for anyone? If you really are an island, If you really are the target, If you really are so blind, Could you even understand this? If you really are so arrogant, If you really are the villain, If you really just don’t care, Can you ever find salvation?
