Because I am difficult, and unraveling indifference from all the wrong strands. (it feels repetitive to say/see but ) "Are you a ball of goodbyes unraveling into yards of yarn and lies?"
The Fool's Gold sparkles so relentlessly.

ENCYCLOPEDIA CYBERTRONICA - THE RUST SEAThe term 'Rust Sea' is used to describe an equatorial region of Cybertron whose surface is in a permanent state of molecular collapse, giving it properties similar the saltwater oceans and seas* and freshwater lakes and rivers of Earth. The 'Sea' is actually nearer in description to an actual ocean, in that it is a body of matter surrounded by seperate, distinct areas, each with their own climates and mechafauna. These areas are described below.-ENCYCLOPEDIA CYBERTRONICA - THE RUST SEA1 year ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
*The Rust Sea is not tidal- The molecular bonds of the matter that forms the sea are strong enough to resist the gravitational effect of Cybertron's two moons.

:Captain overbite: Insanity was all that drove him. His body was pushed forwards by the urge to see death. His very breath spoke words of hell. Where he walked, plants died and animals fled and never returned. He was poison. How come his life was that way, he did not know. He was called a hogosha, but he doubted he was one. Only a small while ago people started to call him an oni and it enraged him. He was born a hogosha supposedly, but he had no one to defend.

You see, it isn't just innocence, not one bit.
I'm filled to the brim with my little excuses
And I've put all of them to very good uses.
A hater, you call me? No, you're very wrong
For you see, the hate I feel isn't that long
Or wide, I tell you, while I might seem mean,
Your attitude and arrogance is what I see.
Adorable and sweet, you think? You've not seen the rest of me
For I am not made of only sugar, because spice is important in this recipe
"Sugar and spice," But not everything nice
And I tell you what's left includes a bit of ice.
You love me, you hate me, you should decide

You lean in towards my lips,
I can taste the anticipation.
It's oozing from our pores.
After so long of not seeing you,
I've forgotten the sensation of kissing
Such sweet, soft, gentle lips.
I missed the passion greatly.
Our lips collide, and a star erupts,
Forming a mighty supernova, it's beautiful.
Beautifully destructive.
The taste of your mouth still resides on my tongue...
You never smile, but today, you did.
It was thorough, and I saw it in your eyes.
Crooked teeth, or an overbite,
Is still naturally beautiful, if you let that beauty shine through....
Forever, and always, I love you.

You care too much for others' thoughts
Though you are perfect as you are
You say you're not good enough
Yet I did not have to look far
To some you are a monster
To more you are a prize
I saw the soul that lived inside
When I danced inside your eyes
Why won't you let me love you?
You don't seem satisfied
Whenever I tried to hold you
You just left me here to die
So then I tried ignoring you
It seemed to work a while
No, I could not resist
Your sweet brown eyes and crooked smile
To some you are an angel
To some, the Devil in disguise
But, my sweet confused one,

And she would not stop, she could not stop,
And she twiddled till she could no longer twiddle.

I asked him why. "Can't keep my jeans on!

Where half the man you thought I'd be,
