Candlelight, golden

Flecks across the shadowed passageway

Yellowed teardrops

Cleansing

The remainder of yesterday's sorrows

Burnt trees growing

In the middle of the desert,

Blossom.

--

An elaborate scheme—

Lies, tricks, dirty cheating people

A twisted net of what they think

Emotions are, what they think I feel.

Kidnapped.

Removal from the premises:

Loss of a patient life?

His fault, not mine.

--

Don't make me.

Do it.

I'm not going to.

Do it.

I didn't even like him.

Do it.

I hated him.

Do it for your mother.

He wasn't my real father.

Do it.

--

Clip, clip.

Deoxyribose nucleic acid…

Languages turning in my head

He isn't me.

Yes he is.

I'm nothing like him.

You are his image.

I don't want to be.

Tough.

I'm not his son!

Yes, you are.

--

Screaming,

Yelling,

Admit it! Admit it!

What, are you five?

Yes! Admit it, admit it, admit—

--

Shattering…

Shattering…

Broken broken broken

Glasses

Through the stars

Broken broken broken

Repeat

Of Louisiana

Broken broken broken

Loss

Of what I loved…

Broken broken broken.

--

Say it.

No.

Say it.

I'm a young Chinese woman.

Good.

--

Hidden treasure

Victory?

After all these months, is this

An end?

Do I really deserve this?

--

You know, you were right.

Yeah. Usually am.

--

I had more fun on that strange, messed-up roadtrip than I have since Amber died.

--

Absolutes.

Finality.

Literal meanings,

Metaphors.

Alcohol through the window…

Shattering like a ten foot mirror…

Just as interesting as it was back then.

--

Hey Wilson. My dad's dead.

You have my sympathy.

--

He took my vicodin.

He kidnapped me.

He almost hit me.

He verbally harassed me.

--

If you're coming back because my helplessness is like a shining beacon of wonder to you...

Yeah?

Thats fine with me.

--

I love that kid.

--

I love him back.
