Writing sober is challenging. But I'm about challenges lately. Challenging myself to be happy. Challenging myself to not be so judgmental. Challenging myself to swordfight monsters until they grow tired and share with me their darkest secrets before they take their final raspy breath.
Monsters are okay. They just need to be reminded of their place in stories from time to time.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BOOK - "Veronica" by Mary Gaitskill.
It's the middle of august - I think - or sometime in august - but it feels like fall. That is a blessing. Fall's the best time of year. Things feel less intense and more hopeful. People don't seem to doubt one another as much. It's the season of holding hands, that's what I say.
Hold my hand, you, and whisper me a sweet Ramones lyric in my ear. Slip candy corn in my pocket and dress up as my favorite hero for Halloween.
Oh, fall.
Sometimes all I need is a walk around Soho and this man's voice in my ears and all's okay again. No, all's fantastic.

Ps: Hooray for getting ICQ. Then we can chat in "real time"
The sun is shining here, I need to go outside and smoke a cigarette. I feel better today, I dont think about self harm at all... but I do think about him, but he will never know how much I miss him and that is fine with me.
I hope you are allright. We need to chat in real time soon.
