“Mr Witty” by The Lost Child

The plan was to wow them with my razor sharp intellect and daze them towards my corrupted web. But I found out that my mental weapons were dulled and corroded.

I let my dissectors of the psyche grow weaker with every distraction that seeped into my sense of self. I replaced who I was with outside concepts, beliefs, and opinions.

How could I let myself get so weak?

I am The Lost Child. I’ve destroyed civilizations. I tore families apart. I can make any human being lose any sense of self worth. And here I was falling victim to my own destructive powers!

I have to focus my wit. I have to repair my blades of greed. My shield of envy. My armor of gluttony.

I am the world defined, my namesake the essence of Man. How dare I change my stance and give into Hope, the destroyer of my wit…

“Goodbye is a Hello” by The Boy

Posted on December 20, 2011 Leave a Comment

Everywhere I turn, there’s a goodbye waiting to say hello. Sometimes it’s forced upon me; sometimes I have to force it. I don’t like the word goodbye because I don’t like to disconnect.

But the world tells me time and time again that goodbye is my partner, my lover, and my friend. I don’t want to be in a relationship with goodbye, but she tends to be the only constant in my life.

So I write about goodbye, I act about goodbye and I dance about goodbye.

Because I have no choice but to say hello to her everyday…
