An entry from Christian's poetry book:

pure oxYgen-

soiled air i'm breathing now
tasteless but corrupt
burning me, infusing life
not worth giving up

enigmatic life o' mine
silently making noise
a puzzle wrapped in riddle
yet still amongst my joys

questions without answers
answers without speaking
questions filling oceans
now sprung a leak and sinking

taking hands of invisible friends
hanging on to hopes and dreams
but within a stitched up body
stuffing rips at its own seams

sharing with an everfriend
to assist me in my strife
another reason to keep breathing
burning me, infusing life

soiled air i'm breathing now
a puzzle in a riddle
answers without speaking
taking hands of invisible friends
another reason to keep breathing

Guardian's Hymn (Haiku for Amelia)

When memories fade
Don't look down, and don't look back
We've got eachother


Shelter: Shed (Written after Amelia left)

The pain lessens day by day
Too far gone
This room is so cold
I can't see you anymore
I'm not alright
I'm not that strong
This is the world I live in
It's filled with hollow echoes
Shadows of what isn't now

Entry 4

Liquid Stupid

(*Note, this has nothing to do with anyone specific, just a prime example of why I hate drinking)

Darkness falls and the bright lights are lit.
And all of your friends wanna go out for a bit.
Nothing to do, no where else to be.
Nothing wrong with being out until three.
One shot, two shot, three shot, four.
Moving like a fool out on the dancefloor.
"Wanna dance," comes the question, posed by some new guy.
You oblige, whats the harm, with a wink of your eye.
Hip bumping becomes grinding and other heated moves.
Would the man who loves you at home still approve?
A playful peck it starts out then a full blownout kiss.
Some new guy wants sex, but is it worth this?
The alcohol smiles at him, an approving green light.
You're in bed with someone who doesn't love you at the end of the night.
Meanwhile at home, your best friend is in tears.
His hopes, and dreams all drown out in his fears.
A night out for fun proves too much by chance.
And it all started out with one innocent dance.
The buzz wears off but the secrets unspoken.
And somewhere at home an unguilty hearts broken.
And your fun night with friends ended up in a strange bed.
The one who truly loves you holds a gun to his head.
All of it broken and all of it lost.
Drinking your 'liquid stupid' was all that it cost.
