if you're just as scared as me, if that's what it's about, please let me find out.

dear diary,

a happy entry? what? no wonder it's gonna be shorter...

you know those days where it's gorgeous, and you feel good, and you just know everything is right? i'm having one of those days. it's fantastic.

you all know i don't have those days very often. it always seems like something is wrong. but every once in a while, a day comes along that makes me remember how great it is to be alive. thank god.

i've had a wonderful week. in spite of a few sad things happening, i have truly been feeling very good. and the sad things i was able to handle very well. i'm proud of myself, and i feel good. i'm making new friends, having fun, and figuring things out. i hope this mood lasts. i could use a streak of goodness in my life.

love and other perishables,
erin

daily reading of the lyrical gospel:

if you have just one, let me be that love. if you have lots of others, please let me be, please let me be one. let me be one. if you like undressing, please let me find out. if you like large intestines, please let me find, please, please, please let me find out. let me find out. if you're gone for weeks on end in crazy situations and don't know why you drive through cars in dirty foreign towns, please let me find out. if you shield your eyes for glory every time and drag your mouth to smile, if sickness is your cover, i'll try not to look down. i'll try not to look down. for if you're sick of cradling and dragging around my injuries, you can just say, "fuck right off." it's better than not knowing. or if you're just as scared as me, if that's what it's about... please let me find out. let me find out. please let me find out. let me find out. please let me find out. please let me find out...

haven't laughed this hard in a long time. i better stop now before i start crying. go off to sleep in the sunshine. i don't want to see the day when it's dying. she's a sight to see. she's good to me. i'm already somebody's baby. she's a pretty thing, and she knows everything, but i'm already somebody's baby. you don't deserve to be lonely, but those drugs you got won't make you feel better. pretty soon you'll find it's the only little part of your life you're keeping together. i'm nice to you. i could make it through that you're already somebody's baby. i could make you smile if you stayed a while, but how long will you stay with me, baby? because your candle burns too bright. well, i almost forgot it was twilight. even if i think that you are right, well, i'm tired of being down. i got no fight. you're wonderful when it's beautiful, but i'm already somebody's baby. and if i went with you i'd disappoint you too. well, i'm already somebody's baby, already somebody's baby.
