It's Henry Rollins. It was from his spoken word album.

is that like, a poem or something? Its pretty good if it is.

Whenever someone talks like "your lover my lover" I always think of that snl skit with will ferrell...What do you say, lovah?!!!

The feeling, Love, is effortless. Marriage... staying in love... that is work. The honeymoon stage of love is like smoking crack. At least from what I hear. I've never tried love. JOKING. I've never tried crack. People will drive themselves insane trying to recapture the honeymoon phase of love. And they never will. Maybe a glimpse, which keeps them chasing, but they will never capture what "they once had." I think you might be trying to capture the mental fantasy of love that you created as child.

Van Gogh was mentally ill long before he fell in love.

You're not describing love. You're describing Jealousy and desperation.

In response to the original question by the poster, yes I wonder that all the time. She says I'm everything to her, but that doesn't always stop the thoughts. Doubt is just one of the things humans go through all the time mentally, isn't necessarily bad. It can be if one begins being obsessed with it. The occasional thought and wonder, however, is normally harmless.

I dissagree. I think you discribed infatuation pretty well. I think when you truely love you will be hurt all the godamn time. It just won't matter. In a perfect way where hurt is the kind of pleasure you wanted for eternity. Perfect love is feeling the pain regardless if they feel it too. Unconditional like even. I feel love is when even unconditional doesn't matter. when you change your character to fit a lie you don't believe. Love is tax exept and audit imunne. Love is not the crazy that gets you going. Love is the voice you hear when all else fails and is proven to be a lie.

thats the truth!!

thats personal information :/

It suits me lol

oh it means lone warrior.

k now i'm scared 0.0 dammit i had to be human

hum...

hm? what does what mean?

My insecurity usually comes from me giving my all, and then having my heart returned to me in pieces. I often wonder if the problem is with me. I've never made it to the dating stage yet, but your advice is something to keep in mind. Never undermine yourself, no matter what other people say or do. Your ability to rise up and meet the challenge is something admired.

i know. Have you seen thoese people who are cocky, but claim to be confident? That kinda annoys me XD

It's insecurity. Your own insecurity. If someone is dating you, they obviously think you're good enough for them. Don't allow your own insecurities to ruin something good. Besides, confidence is hot.

no i meant I suck at pirouettes considering they always go wrong and end up looking horrid :(

the most horrid thing you could think of was a pirouette??? You either suck at similee or you don't know what a pirouette or horrid is.

ooooh *sighs* it sounds so beautiful then it sounds so horrid like a pirouette gone wrong or a beautiful leap well thanks for letting me know. :)

how does love feel? I can not tell you because everyone feels it differently. No one ever feels it the same way.

ok uhmm what's it like you know how does it feel?

Are you asking me this question? If so i'd be nice if you could state it more clearly.

what's it like to fall in love? you never find out true and perfect harmony until the day something tragic happens that keeps you too fighting to make it work where you decide wither its meant to be or did you decide to stop believing it is?

I'd have a girlfriend for love and companionship. Otherwise whats the point in having a lover? Using someone, isn't what i do. Love isn't a game to me. ^^ I take love quite seriously.

though really, I don't think most people think about it that way. Most people are like, "oh. I have a girlfriend. Thats cool. I'd rather have one than not have one most of the time. okay."

I don't think love is like a quest for peopel where they're searching for that most perfect someone.

CORNY. CORNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

But basically true I guess. the spirit of it anyway.

aw, this is one of my reasons why I avoid relationships.I'd feel bad for the pore sap who would settle with me. :p
also relationships are very annoying in my opinion and from personal experience. gana text you periodically, wana hang with you all the time, wana hang all over you and cuddle and shit, it's like no one knows what personal space is >.< I'd be perfectly fine if I didn't see my partner for 2 weeks even more. That's just me. haha

relax...i only speak my mind bro

Riyku was the name given to my by a close friend. Its like a nickname to me, but i really do prefer to be called Riyku.

some thing tells me you typed all this to offend my bro...

That you had a lot of friends and you weren't so
strange after all?

Did you end up going?
Did they mess with you?
Did they single you out?
Did you find out that you were invited because they
thought you were so weird?

Yeah, I think I know you
You spent a lot of time full of hate
A hate that was pure sunshine
A hate that saw for miles
A hate that kept you up at night
A hate that filled your every waking moment
A hate that carried you for a long time

Yes, I think I know you
You couldn't figure out what they saw in the way they lived

Home was not home
Your room was home
A corner was home
The place they weren't, that was home

I know you

You're sensitive and you hide it because you fear
getting stepped on one more time
It seems that when you show a part of yourself that is
the least bit vulnerable someone takes advantage of you
One of them steps on you

They mistake kindliness for weakness
But you know the difference
You've been the brunt of their weakness for years
And strength is something you know a bit about because
you had to be strong to keep yourself alive

You know yourself very well now
And you don't trust people
You know them too well

You try to find that special person
Someone you can be with
Someone you can touch
Someone you can talk to
Someone you don't feel so strange around
And you find that they don't really exist
You feel closer to people on movie screens

Yeah, I think I know you
You spend a lot of time daydreaming
And people have made comment to that effect
Telling you that you're self involved, and self centred

But

admit it...you created this situation and invented a name. You live in your head don't you.

I know you
You were too short
You had bad skin
You couldn't talk to them very well
Words didn't seem to work
They lied when they came out of your mouth

You tried so hard to understand them
You wanted to be part of what was happening
You saw them having fun
And it seemed like such a mystery
Almost magic

Made you think that there was something wrong with you
You'd look in the mirror and try to find it
You thought that you were ugly
And that everyone was looking at you

So you learned to be invisible
To look down
To avoid conversation

The hours, days, weekends
Ah, the weekend nights alone
Where were you?
In the basement?
In the attic?
In your room?
Working some job - just to have something to do.
Just to have a place to put yourself
Just to have a way to get away from them
A chance to get away from the ones that made you feel
so strange and ill at ease inside yourself

Did you ever get invited to one of their parties?
You sat and wondered if you would go or not
For hours you imagined the scenarios that might transpire
They would laugh at you
If you would know what to do
If you'd have the right things on
If they would notice that you came from a different planet

Did you get all brave in your thoughts?
Like you going to be able to go in there and deal with it
and have a great time.
Did you think that you might be the life of the party?
That all these people were gonna talk to you and you
would find out that you were wrong?
That you had a lot of friends and you weren't so
strange aft
