Description Why can't I accept
that something good
has happened to me?

I don't trust
anyone or anything
I can't believe
what i can't see

I have trouble opening up
with everything and everyone
I'm closed and stapled shut
so that no one can open me

but you broke through
pulling out my stitches
and diving head first into my heart

I don't trust
anyone or anything
I can't believe
what i can't see

and with you
you brought a gun
a weapon to use against me

the moment I told you something
you fired your armery
and pierced right through me

I don't trust
anyone or anything
I can't believe
what i can't see

The scar you left me
is what i wear on my sleeve
for my heart is protected

I've hidden my heart away
never to see light
never to feel anything again

I don't trust
anyone or anything
I can't believe
what i can't see

I'll never open up again
for my heart is ten feet under
hidden away from the world

on my sleeve I wear my scars
as a memory of what has happened
and in my hollow body I store my heart
because i am nothing but a vessel

I hold this object
that beats within
for it's a memory
of your sin

sometimes trust is hard to give away when so many people have taken the ability to use it. I know what ya mean though. Sometimes trust is good, and sometimes it isnt.

Yah... it's just really hard for me to open up to... anyone besides one person. And I've realized that I've been so emo lately because of that certain person who hurt me, but I don't wanna be sad anymore. I can't help that i only trust one person now, and I can't help that it takes me at least three-four years to trust ANYONE, but I can stop being so sad... or at least try. Has anything liek this ever happened to you?

thanks. The only person I've really told anything to, though is kristen. She's told me everything too. I don't know, she's one of the only people i feel that i can trust anymore. If we start hanging more I'm sure that I'll be able to talk to you. Just give it time.

hey, how come whenever we start something, we either never finish or never get past first post?

nothing. I got no one to be with. i'm writing more, since I'm grounded. the books pretty good, actually. The main characters a fifteen year-old dude named tommy who lives in a tough part of town. Ha, it would be since the first page has him in a bar... never knew why he was in a bar, but man if they don't ask for an ID who cares. Anywho, it goes on to him almost getting jumped, but luckily his best friend Charlies, who everyone calls Charry, was with the gang. They'd been on their way to a party, and Charry had been looking for some action. From there, they leave Charry with Tommy, and the two walk home together. They live at Charry's house, since Tommy's parents didn't want him, with all Charry's seven siblings, dunk of a father, and mother. The mother Tommy doesn't mind, but he'd like to give his father a smack or two. Tommy isn't exactly tough like the guys around town, well he's tough, and will get into any fight just for the fun of it, but he doesn't go around looking to jack a store, or rob somebody. He's just not like that. From there I can't tell you, because i'd givce away what happens. But so far it's fun to write, which is unsual, because I always get bored with my writing. I hate building up to the action, I wish that you could just jump right to it. Oh well, guess I'll have to wait.

So far there's more characterizing, and explaining Tommy's thoughts then the action. It's coming though. What I didn't mention was that Tommy's brother Bull, is out of jail. I can't tell why he was in, or why that scares Tommy, but he's finally out!

I think that added suspense. Some at least, if you haven't guessed what happened.

Yah, but I've always been terrible at building up. I like to go right to teh action, I don't have patience. It's like straightening my hair. I just want it to flippin straighten!

well that whole "evil brother monster is on the loose" balances it out. And it's true. Sometimes it just needs to listen to me, or I'll cut it off! *glare*
