i need some meaning i can memorize.

first off:
i don't believe in capital punishment.
and i can't quite get my brain around how anyone could think that they have the right to decide the fate of someone's life.
we all have equal status, although that seems to be something that's generally misunderstood,
and how could anyone other than God even consider themselves to have the authority to make such an important decision as to whether a person will live or die?
all they are doing is taking away opportunity.


breathe.


ever just have one of those days where it seems like everything is going wrong?
when in reality so many things are working out in your favor,
but there's that one thing that's on your mind that just doesn't seem to be happening,
so you feel like the world is out to get you..
and then you burn your lunch and you make it into such a big deal that you could swear that the national guard would need to be called or something..
i really really hate being in that frame of mind.

and usually i like that one minute,
and lately i feel like the clock is just mocking me.
kind of feels like just a subconscious thing now,
but this wasn't supposed to happen to me too.
what's a (non-overused) synonym for damn?

the realization that you can't fix everything is inevitable,
at some point you just need to accept the fact that all you can do is
be there
listen
and occasionally listen to some death cab.

in case everyone hasn't realized..
our lives are the oc,

i drew a line

I want you to tell me.

I want to lay outside on my roof in the rain.

I want to find that spark again.

I want to admit to something I never thought I'd say out loud.

I want to be determined that I am not going to settle.

I want to win the competition coming up.

I want to watch the sunrise, and know that it is enough.

I want to jump in the pool with all my clothes on at midnight.

I want to see the ocean from the window of a plane.

it's flawless.
