Thoughts of a writer

Hey all - just wanted to say hi - I will be back from school in a bit for about a week and would love to get together with some of you and catch up. Give me a call or leave a message - I miss you all :-)

Wow I am tired

Tue, 05 Sep 2006 04:49:34 GMT

I am all moved in, minus a power cord for my Zip Drive and a DVD player and VCR since mine broke. I now live in the Village at EMU. :-) I am tired but very happy. My housemates are cool. I hope I don't run out of food money. All is well. Thanks to Chrissy for coming out and helping with Fajita Fest this evening. Spotlight Students is going to rawk! Now I am off to sleep in a new bed. Goodnight all.

almost the last

life sometimes is completely funny
for instance it is amazing how
you can become closer with a friend
because of a huge fight you have at 1 am
and then you can look at other people
who were friends of yours 4 months ago
and now you don't want to have anything
to do with them again, ever again
and then you meet someone, finally
and although this person is awesome
they also mirror all the reason you hate them
and every reason you wish they were different
that you were different
that it was all somehow different
you wish that they were not such a doofus
but also that they would just go away
but also that they would not cause pain
but also that they would not change your life
knowing that they probably have no idea
of the power they hold
fearing that they do
because you know the power you hold
although you don't use it
and somehow at 1 am you find regret
for the first time in forever
and inside a small part dies
ok a big part of you dies
and yet still you find contentment with life
not happiness, yet, but peace
and somehow a new day comes
to hope for happiness
to pray for forgiveness
and dream that immortal wounds will someday heal

About Me...
Won the lottery Gone to a movie alone Peed in public Drank so much I puked Gone up to my crush and kissed him without warning	Cheated on a lover Got caught picking my nose in public Figured out the meaning of the universe when drunk, then forgot it Shouted at a stranger on the street for no reason Collected shiny things

Wed, 23 Aug 2006 16:58:31 GMT

Yesterday was an amazing day
But sad just the same
It was the start of a new beginning
But the end of a wonderful past
Boys became men last night
And yet still somehow
Dreams faded away into forgotten hopes
In an instant everything became different
It is sad when you realize that you truly can not fly
No matter how much you wish or hope or pray
It is even sadder when you do find Neverland
And it only last for a few moments
A few days, weeks, and silent dreams
Today the sun rose and a light inside of me
That has glowed for so long
Has become so dim that it lights has finally gone out
I cried all night
Not out of sadness, or happiness, or fear
But simply because of the fact
That after all of this I have come to realize
What you have tried to show me all along
That in your existence and now in mine
There’s no such thing as fairies.

But if you have not hung out with me all summer, now is not the time.

Peace - Steven

for those of you on myspace, huge changes to my account this evening
for those of you not on myspace, get with the program dorks!

and yes the mood says happy. take note, it does not happen very often.

Where do I begin

Sun, 06 Aug 2006 23:46:15 GMT

For I feel like I have found the end
it was not as horrid as I thought
there was no wall
and yet no light
at the end of the tunnel
I was not as scared as I thought
and yet I trembled
I am still trembling inside

I found my strength
that was hidden somewhere
I found out that strength
still comes with tears
lots and lots of tears

I am not sure where else
I am supposed to go from here
what I am supposed to do
what I am not supposed to do
so I breathe
and I take it all one step at a time
so today I walked
and walked
as a matter of fact
I walked seven miles today
and cried twice

soon I will sleep
and tomorrow I will get up
and walk
and cry
and perhaps someday I will walk more
or less
or cry more or less
or sleep
or not feel like I need to begin
but instead feel like
everything has happened for a reason
and is all leading to a better end
that will all lead to a better beginning

You scored as IV - The Emperor. The Emperor represents power. There is nothing subtle about this Tarot card. The Empress has power through love.The Emperor has power through power. He is in control, he is forceful and ambitious. Nothing will stop him. He is a natural leader, having either been born to the role or having disposed of all those who stood in his way. If well aspected in a Tarot spread this card can indicate success. It represents obstacles overcome, goals reached and ambition fulfilled. If badly aspected it can indicate either weakness or an abuse of power.

Ok all - I have started a blog on Myspace as well. I am sure they will have different things, so if you are my friend on Myspace you might want to subscribe to that as well. If you are not on Myspace you are lame. If you dont care either way then delete me off your friends list and I will do the same. Peace out.

Steve

p.s. - I have a new cell phone now, not that any of you (most of you) ever called the old one to make plans with me, but I am in the mood for a change, and if my friends dont start acting like my friend then they are going to find out that come a month from now I am not going to be their friend anymore. I am sick of calling people to make plans and sick of being alone. Guess this wasn't the nicest post in the world. Oh well.

so much stuff is going right in my life
philip is being great and will be attending EMU this year
:-)
chrissy has been a super friend this week
susan is trying her ass off to be more awesome then usual
joy said we could do lunch soon
and even thought going out with jake was not that great
it ened up not being so bad
so why do i still feel like i want to die so much
why do i cry so much
why cant i just be happy
it seems like i have hit a wall that I can not climb over
that i am getting closer to
and that i am falling into a pit
of doom and blackness
and i am scared

I asked for help

Mon, 17 Jul 2006 02:20:41 GMT

I have been feeling alone lately
Well it is not a feeling
I have been alone a lot lately
And it hurts
And I cry but that doesn’t change anything
Sure I have friends
Like Joy who loves me
And will take me out to lunch and all
And talk with me until 2 am
And Susan and the likes
But I am not part of their group
I am an on the side friend
A once in a while friend
Who spends a lot of days alone
And I have Chrissy
Who has been more of a friend
Then I could ever ask for
Who went out and got herself a life
And I am so happy for her
So now when I call I get a machine
And I have Philip
Who spends a lot of time with me
This summer at least
But he is getting sick of me
And feels he is neglecting others
He doesn’t understand he is the only one
Who actually spends time with me
But I can lose him too
I may not want to
But I am used to lonely days
And a silent phone
I just wonder where did I screw up
How did my life end
But my heart still beat
Why am I not a part of that group
How do I not have more of a life
Why does no one call me
What did I do so wrong
Why must I be so alone
To hurt
And cry
But it doesn’t change anything.

------

Don't write a letter when you want to leave
Don't call me at 3 a.m. from a friend's apartment
I'd like to choose how I hear the news
Take me to a park that's covered with trees
Tell me on a Sunday please

Let me down easy
No big song and dance
No long faces, no long looks
No deep conversation
I know the way we should spend that day
Take me to a zoo that's got chimpanzees
Tell me on a Sunday please

Don't want to know who's to blame
It won't help knowing
Don't want to fight day and night
Bad enough you're going

Don't leave in silence with no word at all
Don't get drunk and slam the door
That's no way to end this
I know how I want you to say goodbye
Find a circus ring with a flying trapeze
Tell me on a Sunday please

Don't want to fight day and night
Bad enough you're going
Don't leave in silence with no word at all
Don't get drunk and slam the door
That's no way to end this
I know how I want you to say goodbye

Don't run off in the pouring rain
Don't call me as they call your plane
Take the hurt out of all the pain
Take me to a park that's covered with trees
Tell me on a Sunday please

Hello

Fri, 14 Jul 2006 02:48:15 GMT

I am feeling a bit lost today

I fucked up on my date with susan tonight, which sucked

Jake and I did not hang out again this week, that (this) will never work

Philip announced his family is going on a two week vacation soon, so I am losing him for 2 out of the 6 weeks I still have him

I had a mini-meeting with Glenna today, which is scary in itself, I love the lady but she is so powerful and stuff it just fills me with doubt about all my goals. I am glad she supports my dreams. I hope she continues to do so.

I need a Joy hug and Joy lunch soon, when, who knows, when I get some money, I am tired of you paying.

Ian say yes. Please.

Next weeks is going to fly by, then the week after is crunch time for meetings and getting the final endorsments I need so I don't go crazy with self-doubt and stress.

If anyone is a director or choreographer I need you. LOL.

Have a great friday all - peace.

anymore

Mon, 10 Jul 2006 21:56:17 GMT

What am I fighting for
When I will never be an equal
Or treated the same
Or looked at as kindly
Or even with the same amount of dignity

What am I fighting for
When I will never be able to marry
Someone who I truly love
Whether that be you
Or if I can someday find another

What am I fighting for
When I have to argue
With the ones I care for
Just to care about me back
And to show a little concern
Or treat me with a bit of respect

What am I fighting for
When every day I must repent
For the sins of my mind
That are so natural
That when acted upon
Sometimes I don't even notice

What am I fighting for
When millions of people
Scream against me in protest
Torturing their children in disgust
And bribing their legislatures to ensure
That I will never be happy

What am I fighting for
When even my best friend
Will lie next to me in bed
And ask me if I am wrong
Hoping I can be straight
Hoping I can be normal

What am I fighting for
When the end could so easily be near
When my head and my heart agree
And all this pain could just disappear
What am I fighting for?
I am just not so sure anymore.

friends

Sun, 09 Jul 2006 16:40:09 GMT

i need some friends this week
not online friends
human friends
that i can hug
that i can hear laugh
i mean it is nice to talk to all of you
almost every day on the screen
but i hardly ever get to see you
in person anymore
some of you i have never met
some of you i will never meet again

i will need some friends next week too

if i told you i was at a level 7
would anyone know what i was talking about
would it matter to you either way
had it ever matter to some of you at all
or am i just one more online person
who is not flesh
therefore
i am not real

stupid

Sat, 08 Jul 2006 21:41:14 GMT

I am sitting here at the desk at work and other then the person who is sitting about four feet away from me working. I think we are the only ones in the entire building. It is 5:30. I have to stay until 8:00. This is stupid.

I want so much more out of my life then where I am at right now, and I feel like some of the things that I am doing are just wasting, my time. Like this intro to creative writing class - write about a bumper sticker. That is stupid, I write novels and screenplays. I refuse to waste my time writing about a bumper sticker. I understand the concept, but I am still not going to do it.

I am 25. I have a way of doing things. Chrissy could tell you how I do things. Susan could tell you a bit of how I do things. Philip could tell you a bit more. My parents dont do anything the way I do. They try to help. They do tings so different I just end up having ot go behind them and redoing everything. It is a waste of energy and time, and it is stupid.

The summer is almost over. Not only does that suck but it is stupid as all get out. That is all for now. Until then.

fuck

Sat, 08 Jul 2006 02:52:27 GMT

so i have been crying for like an hour straight
