Here, We Lay Forgotten

the moon falls, and the only thing you see for miles is your shadow cast upon the city of shame. Your city, your shame. It's been, what now? hours? days? weeks? Empty to the brim. Empty sex, empty bottles, emptiness pouring forth. Empty reflections caught in the mirrors of the disco globe. Empty with endless nights, fuelled by desire, drinks, the want of a good time. Nights that were there, but you can't place them for the life of you. Bare attempts to find something to hold on to, something to make yours, and make yourself a part of. You hear their voices, them telling you it's okay, it's not worth it, it's inevitable, it's going to happen when it's going to happen. But you only listen to your heart. and Your heart says enough is enough. This is not you. This is not what you want. You're strong, you're free, you're the single most important thing to you. You'll hold your head up high, and you'll shed the skin you've been wearing to bathe the world in your glow. You will get what you want, and you will need not fight with it. It will come to you, golden platter borne. You shake the demons out of your hair, and you step into the warm summer morning.

and so, you take your first steps towards love.

I'll ask a question here. What if it's non existent?

Dreaminglass said...

Then you don't know where you're going.

Philophobic said...

But isn't knowing where you're going a form of nihilistic stagnation?

Dreaminglass said...

And isn't discussing faux-philosophy on someone's blog a form of pretentious douchebaggery?

Zh. said...

oh come onnnnnnnnn
hahahahah be nice :)

Philophobic said...

You didn't answer my question. And that defeats the purpose. Unless you think all comments are meant for either trolling or flattery.
I was just being nice, asking a question means that I read it. Yennyway.

:D

Whut Zh said.

Dreaminglass said...

Rhetorical questions.

Google it.

While you're at it, google "nihilistic" and "stagnation".

*troll*

In all honesty, thank you for reading. Also in all honesty, I don't care to spend too much thought on these questions. They are not of much consequence. Hence, I haven't bothered to scrounge up an answer. If they are pertinent to you, find your own answers to them.

Philophobic said...

Self defeatist. :D

Dreaminglass said...

...does the stench of fart always accompany your words?

Philophobic said...

Does the stench of elitist flatulence and self important opulence accompany yours? :)

Toodles.

Dreaminglass said...

Yes to the first one, No to the second one.

Toodles.

Zh. said...

god, you're still so mean.
:p

Zh. said...

you know what, philophobic, I think your question was awesome. and i apologize on this man's behalf for being such an ass.

ha.

Dreaminglass said...

As nice as it was of you to apologize to him on my behalf, I think he's decided to absolve himself from any more involvement in this here cutesy tussle.

Oh well. He did seem kinda interesting. *shrugs*

Philophobic said...

I'm still lurking. Cyberspace allows for way too many options, disconcertingly so.

So, Zh, would you have an answer?

Seeing as Dreaminglass wrote it off. Quite literally, if I may say so. :D

All is cool, I mind not. 'Tis is life and all that shindig.

Zh. said...

there is no such thing as not existing.
