    The dark....it swallows you whole, leaving no mercy to those who handed out sick smiles instead of hands.    Laughing when one asks for help or cries innocent. , for it takes no magician to uncover the truth.    You thought you'd end up somewhere before you ended up In a black abyss.

This isn't the type of love that deserves poetry, Its love born out of an inability to survive alone, Its affection born from a necessity to believe in a lie I'll continue to whisper in your ear each night. "I'll protect you"... A lie neither of us believe and neither of us dispute for fear of losing our only tether to this decrepit existence that we both fear so much... this love isn't romantic nor is it confrontational its not comforting nor is it disturbing, It's merely there sinking beside us in the sea of life , that's gently drowning us, reminding us that together we can almost breathe.

We need more female CEO’s and political leaders, But not more women in… Forestry, sewage, or mining, Truck driving, or taxi driving, Or garbage collection, Or more men on magazine covers, Or higher-paid male models, Or fewer men dying on the job, Or fewer men dying in wars, Or
