Quicksand

I wanna find out firsthand
But it’s like I’m stuck in quicksand
My dreams never go as planned
The more I struggle, the tighter the band
I want to learn but I’m in the wasteland
There are devils about and they tied my hand
He’s in high demand
He owns a ship, he’s in command
I’m still waiting here like I am stuck in quicksand

Vibes!

Go have a listen to “Quicksand Jesus” by Skid Row. It’s a fave. 😊

Howdy y'all, I am on @tunersradio under my pen #poeeternal and I did a soft reading of a #poem I wrote this morning on #tuners if you'd like to have a listen. I also drop #confessions and other things on #tunersradio but mostly music and art related stuffs and occasionally some juice! It's an awesome #app! I highly #recommend it! 😆 Direct link: https://tuners.io/users/POEETERNAL

Snapchat version: no I'm not ready yet my hair is still air-drying (scroll left for morez) #wethairdontcare #fridaythe13th #fullmoon #weekendvibes #longhair #girlswithlonghair #petitegirl #petitegirls #goodgirls #loyalgirls #leogirl #firesigns #snaps

Because #gameplay matters. This game is tough as shit but I finally earned a very rare trophy in DBD: 'Hemophobia; Escape Without Losing a Single Drop of Blood' #ps4 #deadbydaylight #gamer #girlswhogame

Happiness is a hug by my king. #throwbackthursday to the FIRST TIME I finally met #gavinrossdale of @bush in the year 2016. I was deep into depression but it was one of the greatest nights of my life. It was only my 2nd #Bush gig and I didn't have VIP but I had front row and the gig took place on Luckie Street in Atlanta at the Tabernacle which was a beautiful venue, I drove some four hours I think just to get to the show. And I got there extremely early because I wanted the chance for front row *sigh* the things we do for front row / #raillife! The Bush Army will sit through a hurricane if it means front row! Gavin has a huge following and he loves his tribe. So it was my first time front row for Bush and I got several hugs from Gavin that night plus he jumped off the stage at the end of the show and gave me a sweaty hug and his guitar pick he was playing with *faints*. I decided after the show I'd go hang out by the bus cuz I'm cheeky as fuck and there was no way to do that at the first gig I attended in 2012. I was completely satisfied getting all those hugs and a guitar pick from him during the show but I wanted a chance to actually say hello and I brought my vinyl to get signed. I waited and waited anxiously as did so many others. But like an hour later he came off the bus and a bunch of girls in prom dresses started screaming really loud and I got really excited you know cuz Gavin came out from the bus so. I watched him talk to people and sign stuff for maybe an eternity, I don't know. But what I do know was when he finally got to me he actually asked me my name. And he personalized my vinyl and I should start signing my name the way he writes it (scroll left to see the photo). 😆 I asked him if we could get a silly photo and then I got scolded for pulling away from him, he actually scolded me lol and Gavin actually gave me the look of shock lol and then I got back into his arm so we could get our silly photo. He said, "I did what you asked and then you pulled away" and I sort of squeezed back into his arms lol. I'm always running away from Gavin which probably confuses him because I love him so much and he's probably not used to girls doing that. 😃

These photos with @bush - a highlight of 2019 for sure. What are your favorite #memories of #2019? Gavin gave me his superhero pose! Yas! A forever favorite! 😆 #bush #gigs #bush2019
