"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on."-Robert Frost


I'm not myself, so whom am I to blame?
All I do is bring drugs, disgrace, and shame.
I lie to myself for the thrill;
but the wasting feelings stand still.
It's the wasting away feeling of our love
It needs some insinuation like a push or a shove.
My heart is a bleached coral reef,
unhealthy and unique,
but still,
I'm not something you need.
