may 18 ~ something you made (made and drawn by yours truly)

may 19 ~ a favourite place (on the couch with my cuddle fwend!)

may 20 ~ something you can't live without (nature. simple as that)

may 21 ~ where you stand (in the intensive care unit, for the past 5 weeks)

may 22 ~ pink (goodbye cake for ICU :D )

rose

a rose
red of sweet scent
unfolding from his touch
beneath the moons crescent


lips caress her flesh
each petal falling limp to the floor
opening up to the unknown
with each touch she wants more


a rose without her thorns
her defences down
she is weak and scared
the water is deep enough to drown 


the life she lead before
a single flower lost amongst the crowd
her imagination could not compare to this
the emotion flooding her ears is so loud


he holds her so tenderly 
his heart beat shakes the room
he is just as scared as her
they are headed for the same doom


each life now rests in the past
separate souls combine
will the rose blossom with the love presented?
the only determination, time.

may 12 ~ something that makes you happy (my house mate, he's pretty amazing. he makes me laugh all the time with his singing and dancing. i love his free spirit)

may 13 ~ mum (my mother and I at my 21st birthday)

may 14 ~ grass (my wishing tree in north adelaide)

may 15 ~ love (the young love between my cousin and her boyfriend :) they are so lovely)

may 16 ~ what you're reading (always a fight between work and play)

may 17 ~ snack (ate some chocolate that i wasn't meant to, whoops, sorry ryan! it was all nay's fault)

him

there is was thinking i was torn between two
when now the choice seems easy
yet i dont know where to begin
or even if i should try
i am told all these amazing stories
and his personality makes me smile
we are still learning
and new to each other
but could i be swayed to take that next step
to try and put my heart out there once more
his messages make me smile
and his kind heart shines through in every word
he is cheeky and sweet
all of these amazing things rolled into one
yet i really dont know him all that well,
but i feel something?
actually i dont know what im feeling
or what im thinking
i need to sort out this mess
i depise these thought and just wish,
wish that it was easy to just jump.
and fall into the unknown 
into the warmth of another's arms
[and heart]
swap mine for his.
maybe one day.
only time will tell.

porn...

so for the past hour or so... i may have been consuming my self in a little porn...

i was shown the website by Renée... now get your minds out of the gutter please, its not your typical dirty sex porn site (im not really into looking at things like that haha)

its called book shelf porn.

it is amazing to say the least. its full of images and videos relating to books/book shelves :)

i can only dream of one; owning that many amazing books, two; being able to read that many books

and three; having the space to display them in such interesting ways!

give it an eye ball :) you may also like what you see.

i wasn't able to post the actual video so i have attached the link for you to see.

its warming to see how much love and effort goes into making a book.

the website is www.bookshelfporn.com

happy reading.

~may~

ah hello May. 
all the best people are born in may (me) or the end of april which is almost may (renée)
i have also decided after seeing months of my friends do so on facebook
to start a photo.a.day :)
you are given a list and take a photo relating to the word or topic.
its a clever idea created by lady to get people to see more of the world around us.
i thought id wait until may because it means the most to me.


so i shall be posting my images on here, but they will come in bursts as to when i have access to the internet :)
enjoy!

May 1~ peace (my tattoo)

May 2~ skyline (the 'skyline' from my bedroom window)

May 3~ Something you wore today (my favourite winter hat, one of the only things that is good about cold weather)
