“Maybe The Absence Of Signs Is A Sign.”

“People don’t always get what they deserve in this world.”

— Lemony Snicket

When people try to surprise you.

“There are people we meet in life who miss being important to us by inches, days, or heartbeats. Another place or time or a different emotional frame of mind and we would willingly fall into their arms; gladly take up their challenge or invitation. But as it is, we encounter them when we are discontent or content and they are not. Whatever they are, we are not and vice versa. Two trains going in different directions that pass for a few powerful moments at full speed, blasting noise and wind but then they are gone. Whatever serious chemistry might have been possible if, isn’t.”

— Jonathan Carroll

Jaded Heart

You were the moon who pulled me home

You were the sun that grew me

You were there when I was alone

You were the one who loved me

You promised you'd stay

You were the only one by my side

But one day you casted me away

And all I see now is a divide

The stars, I once tried to reach

The path you lit, I tried to follow

To make you proud was all I ever wished

Now I can't help this happiness I borrow

One misstep and it all disappeared

This great wave rushed over my head

I could no longer see your light

You turned your head as I bled

It ached to think you no longer had faith

I showed you should have trust

But it was already too late

Now your words echo in my head

I couldn't embrace the apologies

I knew you would only lie

So I tried to have faith in myself

But now there is something broken inside

I won't make it, I'm not enough

In the greatest depths my wound still weep

Tried to fake it but somewhere I've given up

My euphoria now lasts skin deep

There is no beacon to turn to

My foundations turned to rubble

Loneliness is my solace

Don't have to confront the troubles

Blame now falls on no one but me

I guess there was truth in your eyes

For now I can't get back up

And I'm stuck wondering, why?

Why am I not strong?

Why stay walking on ice?

My fears seem all gone

But they're taunting in their disguise, for-

You are the moon who untethered me

You are the sun that made me dust

You are the one who left me stranded

You are the one who had my love

You really have to applaud teachers for their work. I've 'tutored' Uni students and stars, if this meme didn't strike a cord. I can't imagine how they feel sometimes doing it full time.
