Self-Imposed Insomnia by SEROtoneIN, literature

Literature

Self-Imposed Insomnia

My eyes burn wide awake against A frame of endless weariness Threat'ning off the tide of slumber Long into the night Distantly, insistently The taunting numbers hiss at me Bedtime! Lay thee down now lest Fatigue destroy thy day! But sooner that I lay me down Sooner wake I with the frown Of one more day of wishing I could sleep eternal sleep The daytime holds no joy for me The sunlight mocks my reverie I cannot bring myself to strive Toward such disphoric nothingness

The Pretty One by SEROtoneIN, literature

Literature

The Pretty One

How wonderful to be the man That you love me to be Who makes you melt like chocolate fudge The man you've made me see So strong and full of courage Like the world's in my hand And I have power o'er everything To make your heart feel glad But sometimes I want to be pretty one To be the one who's twirled And feel your fingers through my hair Protected from the world To run to you and just be held 'Til all my fears have fled Hear loving words you whisper Softly sing inside my head So let me be the pretty one Just once every while It will be our secret And it will make us smile And feel like Father made the world So we could

Who Was She? by SEROtoneIN, literature

Literature

Who Was She?

They asked me who you were Said, Shaun who was this girl That floats across your pages Who stars on all your stages? You love her in the lines you write She lives there; we can see her light We're curious Who was this girl? She must be someone true And she must have loved you A girl with holy faith Who inspired you to say You'd love her ever day you live Give her all you have to give Pardon us But who was this girl? The chocolate hair and eyes Of cinnamon defy Description, you would claim Still, why incessant pain? It seems she's ceased to love you back But you keep writing—why is that? Who was she, Shaun? Who was this

Coming to Save You by SEROtoneIN, literature

Literature

Coming to Save You

I'm coming to save you I'm gonna make everything turn out right Arriving by moonlight So leave your window open tonight And I'm not crying anymore I'm not bleeding on the floor That was yesterday It's gone and I'm okay But I still love you so, my dear So I will wipe away your tears Like God has left you In .... my .... care I'm mapping the future A future devoid of long brown hair Don't even remember The night I dressed you on the stairs So don't stare into my eyes Don't recall the day you cried Or the night you wouldn't Let me go I almost kissed you then and there I think back how it wasn't fair But I'm still come to

Don't Believe by SEROtoneIN, literature

Literature

Don't Believe

Keep ... me ... here Hold ... me ... near I'll pretend I'm trying to leave But don't believe ... Don't believe that I can Live without you for a day Don't Believe that there will ever be another And don't Believe When I say I am coming back to you Whisper ... prayer All ... your ... hair Our eyes lock again But don't believe ... Don't believe that you aren't More than the whole world to me Don't Accept that I don't want to kiss you now And don't Believe That tears of joy don't swell in your brown eyes Do you notice in the air How it's dark when I'm not there How you light up when we meet When I lift you off you

Living in the Light by SEROtoneIN, literature

Literature

Living in the Light

There're beauty and light In the corners of my life Steady Strong They chase away the darkness The candle's near It speaks to me so I can hear Warm Calm Burning brightly in my soul For so long So dead So much darkness in my head I could try But could not speak Now I grow strong where I was weak Guided by Light By a Man dressed in white Gentle Kind My faith in Him's my anchor What is this? How much love have I missed? Life Forever At last I am alive again Now I see He's with me For I diligently sought Him Fight the fight Find what's right Finally I'm living in the light

Silver Shores by SEROtoneIN, literature

Literature

Silver Shores

Wandering through suburbs And cities black with smoke Trying to quell my aching soul Straining just to cope The weight of death and loneliness Embossed upon my head A living, breathing, life that dies A sleeping, bleeding thing of sighs Til light from heaven fills my eyes After countless days alone Among the mechanistic moan The filthy city opens its doors— Before me there lie silver shores The ocean's gentle, salty breeze Wipes away the soot And warmth returns to me again Through sand beneath my foot I stare across this golden beach Into the sapphire height My eyes fall on silver shores Filled with heaven's light

Thinking of You by SEROtoneIN, literature

Literature

Thinking of You

I lie in bed at night and think of you Clutching the beding I think of how much I love you It makes me want to cry When I think that you're far away Like we barely got started And then were ripped away But nothing's been easier Than thinking of you I'm thinking of you every day And every hour til the end I want you to know that I never thought I'd feel this way again So I'm wishing for a day That seems so far away When I'd hear you speak my name Because I've never felt more loved Than when you say it like you do That's why I'm always Thinking of you Thinking things like, "What could I do To make her smile at me?" 'Cause

Re: Random Survey

0 min read

I was reading an old Journal entry of mine *titled "Random Survey." Here is a list of the ones (besides things like "Who did you last talk to?" obviously) that I would change if I took the survey again. 41. If you could be anywhere, where would you be?: With my family. New answer: La Grange. Rebecca is in La Grange. Kelly's up there too. 55. Do you wear shoes in the house or take them off?: Shoes mosta the time. New answer: Socks or bare feet, now that I live in a house and not a dorm. 70. What is the best accent?: I dunno. Irish, all the way. Or maybe East Indian. 71. Who do you want to kiss?: NOBODY Although there is a specific some

Mission

0 min read

Well, my mission papers are off. For anyone who doesn't know, that means that soon the Lord will call me to serve and preach His gospel somewhere in the world. It might be in the U.S., or it might not be. So we can play a fun game: Where do you think Shaun will be called to?

Hair, Fallout, and Fasting

0 min read

I just had the funnest night. Kelly, Sarah, and I went to WalMart and got hair color (the kind that washes out in 8-10 shampoos) and did purple hair! I did red at first, but it wasn't nearly extreme enough, so we did purple on me too and it looks great! We put purple highlights/streaks (I dunno the difference) in the girls' hair. It was way fuN! So you left me a comment. Thanks, really. I still wish you had an explanation for me, though. That wasn't very nice. And fasting ..... Wow. Fasting is the COOLEST thing ever, because you can get so much closer to Heavenly Father--I don't think an hour went by that I didn't pray. It just works someho
