X--Atelophobia--x• Show poetry

Background by nichtmich

So... I feel like a proper introduction is in order...


"If you die you're completely happy and your soul somewhere lives on. I'm not afraid of dying. Total peace after death, becoming someone else is the best hope I've got." - Kurt Cobain



My name is Tegan.
Every single stitch of my poetry is personal, and there's nothing I can do to stop that.
I just realized recently how subconscious the majority of my writing really is.

In my life, I've learned to hate Saturdays.
I've learned that things can go from bad to good between heartbeats.
And I'm okay with that.



"I think that's one of the problems with the world today, nobody knows who they are. Everyone is running around looking for an identity, or trying to borrow one, only they don't know it. They actually think they know who they are and what they are and what are they? They're just a bunch of schleppers... who have no idea what a search for personal truth and identity really is, which would be all right if they didn't get in your way, but they insist that they know everything and that if you don't live their way then you're not living properly and they want to take your space away... they actually want to somehow get into your space and live in it and change it or destroy it... they just can't believe that you know what you are doing and that you have your own identity and space and that you are happy and content with it. You see, that's the problem right there. If they could see that then they wouldn't have to feel threatened and feel that they have to destroy you before you destroy them. They just can't get it through their philistine heads that you are happy where you are and don't want to have anything to do with them. My space is mine and that's enough for me." - Hubert Selby Jr.'s Requiem for a Dream


"Everything is a self-portrait. A diary. Your whole drug history's in a strand of your hair. Your fingernails. The forensic details. The lining of your stomach is a document. The calluses on your hand tell all your secrets. Your teeth give you away. Your accent. The wrinkles around your mouth and eyes.
Everything you do shows your hand." -Chuck Palahniuk's Diary



"Out of the crooked timber of humanity no straight thing was ever made." - Immanuel Kant

    I like the stuff you put on your profile, its always good to face reality, but it never benefits unless you face it and accept it...
