The Dawn Of A New And Better Life
When you were here before, couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel, your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I don't care if it hurts, I wanna have control
I want a perfect body, I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice, when I'm not around
You're so fuckin special
She's running out again...

On The Firing Line
Rifle range is tomorrow
I've spent the past week cleaning my M16A4, and aligning the sites so it'll shoot properly.
It's nice to be issued this weapon again because since last July I was given the M249 Machine gun to carry into Iraq.
An impressive weapon with incredible firepower, but quite lumbersome.
I have a lean build, and a strong back, but I'm ( Read more... ) -
If There Was A Heaven...
Andrew Largeman: You know that point in your life when you realize that the house that you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of the sudden even though you have some place where you can put your stuff that idea of home is gone.
Sam: I still feel at home in my house.
Andrew Largeman: You'll see when you move out it just sort of happens ( Read more... ) -
How The Story Really Ends
"If You Love Her... You'll Let Her Go So She Can Be Happy."
~Closer(2004)~
I feel a tear well up in my eye, and I wonder how there can still be any tears left to be shed
Will this be the last one?
Will I think of what expired here 10 years from now, and still feel the pain in my stomach and my heart?
I've just done the hardest thing I've ever done in ( Read more... ) -
A Cruel Monster Of A Storm
North Carolina is a dump... well the parts that I've seen anyway.
It wasn't just the approaching storm clouds of Hurrican Ophelia
Stretching out and wrapping her dark claws around the bus that took us back to base.
After going through a visual paradise in Cali, my eyes now scan the swamps, and the outback boonie town that is Jacksonville NC.

Back To Playing Soldier
We had our last Marine unit arrive at the end of August
I decided to go all out seeing as this was the last time we were to train Marines as Iraqi roleplayers
I set a few IED's on the road, did one car bombing, two sniper attacks, and of course a drive by shooting with AK-47's.
I ended up getting killed once, and was arrested twice.
The last unit is ( Read more... ) -
Immortal Love Revisited
(I've revisited a story I wrote a year ago about a male vampire in love with a mortal woman. It started out as a short story, but I'm working on fleshing out the storyline more, and explaining where the vampire came from, and what he believes good and darkness to be.
I'm running out of time as of now because I have to go back to California tonight ( Read more... ) -
A Lucky Break
I've spent so much time on myspace, that I've neglected livejournal as of late...
*smirk*
Ok, well I neglect this journal anyway not because I want to, it's just I lack the means, or I don't have the time.
The meritourious promotion to Corporal probably went to someone else.
I was up for it, but I've heard nothing in the past two weeks
Not to say it ( Read more... ) -

Louis: What are we?
Armand: Nothing... if not vampires.
Louis: Who made us what we are?
Armand: Surely you know the one who made you...
Louis: Yes, but the one who made him? The source, of all this... evil.
