i wake up the other day, get on facebook and see something strange.

my friend michael had created a facebook group called, “i want to see matt freakin spradlin in concert”. seriously?

i had nothing to do with this.

i have no idea where this came from. michael is funny, and he means well, but seriously.

guy fawkes, part ii.

years of silence
magnifies
years of sound
wide eyes
to
red eyes
to
tiny hands
to
a shaking body
to
venom
to
a bad taste left
from the wrong words said
and once again you had
steady knees
and steady hands
and a steady voice
but forgot
your wide eyes
to hide and cry
the night away
back
and
forth
but
i
kept
it
and
slept
(and with)
you left it
and drank
waking up
where things finally made sense
again
if only
for
one
night
(with him)
so i rewound the days
and found
i never missed
what i
thought i
missed
only a ghost
thinning with years
(invisible now)
i become
seasons
and you
become
the same
not knowing
the things that i know
not knowing
being
alone
being
awake
with sincerity
i forgave everything
and continued on
dripping in venom
bathing in glory
remembering nothing
knowing the
difference
between
being
alive
and
living

sometimes i like to take stock of my life. kind of look back on things. compare where i was to where i am. think about how things are going. all that stuff. every day of my life, i feel like a new person. every day of my life, i look back on previous days and think, “i can’t believe that was me.” because it wasn’t. it wasn’t me. i’m not even close to the same person i was in high school or college. it’s just so hard for me to believe that the life i used to lead is actually the life i used to lead. i know that probably doesn’t make sense, but it does to me. i am nowhere near the same person i was a year ago. two years ago. three years ago. five years ago. it’s so, so weird. i am so incredibly blessed. god has brought me through so much and into an awesome, loving relationship with him. it’s amazing. i’ve never been happier or more content in my entire life. and it’s all because of god. i owe everything i am to him.

take.

i got a thing.
