Somewhere something incredible is waiting to be known.

If I were to believe anything, it would be in the power of humanity, the strength of humanity, and what humans are capable of, as well as what humans are capable of convincing themselves of.
There are things I would never have believed if it weren’t for you; thanks for that :)

I really hate cheesy sayings and cliches, particularly when I’ve seen them a hundred times. But maybe people should figure it out for themselves, rather than rely on the inspirational words of others.
Of course, then there’s the side benefit of using those quotes to create your own stuff; but then my question is: is it your thoughts that you’re creating or were they put in your...

Apparently I’m going to heaven
Head is pounding, homework to do, potential Doctor Who marathon with the cousin to get ready for, cleaning to get done, and I still need to get out of bed.
The Mirror and the Enemy
When you’ve lived your whole life
One step below everyone you know-
Whether it be in intelligence
Or wealth, it doesn’t matter;
The detrimental effect of it
Will not be erased simply with a new life.
It will not be erased simply by forgetting.
There is no greater enemy to someone
Than yourself.
Even the greatest person living
Will refuse to look in the mirror
Because all...

In the Dark
It is quiet.
It is dark.
It is safe.
We hide,
Under the stairs
And away from
Humanity;
A childish game
But we’ll never grow up.
It’s dark.
Our job is to be quiet.
I lay my head
On your arm or chest or shoulder
I don’t know which
A spot reserved for lovers
And I hope it’s not awkward
Because we’re simply friends.
Thump.
Thump.
Thump.
Feet are...
In a cosmic perspective, most human concerns seem insignificant, even petty. And...

Possibilities
I look forward to each day with you; We sit next to each other in some classes And in the one we don’t, It’s fun to catch you staring.
And whatever we have right now, I know it won’t mean much. Stray thoughts and absent stares But I’m too shy for my own good, Too scared to make the move Because obviously it won’t go anywhere.
Although, you said you were a hopeless...

Hitchens died. Christopher Hitchens died today.
I’ve read several different obituaries/tributes to him: two on the NYT, 1 on skepchick, 1 on Neurologica (I’d provide links but I’m lazy), and several different ones on twitter (from Richard Dawkins, Stephen Fry, Miss Information…) and, to me, it’s still incredible that he’s not breathing, that his incredible...

At this point, I could probably publish an anthology of Doctor Who inspired poems.
Doctor Who (in poems): Because the poet doesn’t have anything better to do than watch Doctor Who and write about the amazing character he is.
There is someone in my class who I’m sort of friends with. Since September we’ve practically said at least one thing to each other at least once a day. I didn’t speak to him at all today. It feels weird.
There are exactly two things I wanted for Christmas, two things that I wanted more than anything that will be under my tree. I don’t think I’m getting either one :(

Clinking Ice
The whiskey bottle is empty- Too many glasses have been poured I can still hear the clinking of the ice While the glass is refilled Again. Memories fade but they don’t disappear; I can’t remember the sound of your voice, Only the smell of alcohol brings your face How long will I torture myself Just so I won’t forget you? You shouldn’t be forgotten so readily; The bad is...
