This nagging feelings underneath my skin and getting to me wanting me to tell you that I am about to explode with envy on your new relationship. I waited for years to be your girl and look at where it has gotten me.  Nowhere! I fumble through my pockets just to distract myself from your fluorescent beauty. It shines with so much love it hurts me to think that you use it with what’s her face. Yea that girl I actually saw stalking you outside the café on 3rd street. Who the fuck is she anyway? Why do you like her instead of me? I hate you with a passion right now, but instead of showing my anger I sit beside you in a cab holding your hand as you gently caress the inside of my palm. Why do you do this to me?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9102744067151764560-5496402669883553315?l=lequirkychic.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lequirkychic.blogspot.com/feeds/5496402669883553315/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lequirkychic.blogspot.com/2009/10/in-silence-scenes-from-cab.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9102744067151764560/posts/default/5496402669883553315'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9102744067151764560/posts/default/5496402669883553315'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lequirkychic.blogspot.com/2009/10/in-silence-scenes-from-cab.html' title='In Silence : Scenes from a Cab'/><author><name>Stephanie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13386485950474161208</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_03-PmHyzT8E/SX-qcmRGspI/AAAAAAAAABc/D98Xg-M2pv4/S220/stephglasses.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9102744067151764560.post-2395704581474717402</id><published>2009-10-09T00:50:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-19T09:21:21.569-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sunday Scriblings'/><title type='text'>Bump In The Night - Haunted</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_03-PmHyzT8E/StyR9mZPmyI/AAAAAAAAADg/RF28Vu5nMro/s1600-h/nightmare"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 255px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_03-PmHyzT8E/StyR9mZPmyI/AAAAAAAAADg/RF28Vu5nMro/s320/nightmare" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394346941147487010" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Messy eyes and drawn out smiles are all I can think of before drifting off to sleep.
