Video Break #8

This is a must see. Entrancing short film.

Time to Start

It's time to start over. 

You see, I've been half-way someone else's for so long that I forgot I even was -  
Forgot that - 
while I was still smiling to myself about playing with how the skin can sweetly work - that it was disappearing entirely. 

And if months and moments disappear - then hey - did it ever really happen at all? 

That's how memory drips. . . . . . . 

And oozes. . . . . And greases my eyes with such a milky viscous that everything is thick with falsehood. 

In the cold I couldn't see it. 

In the cold I found plenty of other motives, and desirous souls to touch and build a make-believe humidity in refuge with. 

But now the heat is pouring in through my 2 inches of window-pane again. 

It's softening. 

And it's strangling, as I walk through the city with the faintest dowsing of sweat all over. 

When the city seems so much louder, so much more powerful - so very devoid of my foolish plans. 

(This heartbreak city)

Because "Plans", such stupid things - are just mockery to our wallets, our minds, our hearts and our entire brackets of "Lives" that just didn't go the right way. 

They all went haywire in a million directions that no one can tell if it's good or bad. 

Now. Well, now they say I've got scars. 

They say my body is building up bad things. 

And I couldn't help but laugh -

when the doctor called - since, well, that's always been the case. 

So could you spare me a little more of the summer evenings - when the sky fills up heavily - and I catch the warm amber strokes against my blue eyes, and colored metal bracelets, and last night's hair - and the car keeps driving - and there's tall grass and stars awaiting.

Cause I want to feel like how it is when the sun drowns into the horizon. Melting days into a fleeting twinkle of adventure. 

Melting so many resolutions, so many mistakes and misreadings - into just another couple stories. 

Just another time it didn't go one way. 

It went another.
