Because I like it.

"Corrupt"
Depeche Mode

I could corrupt you
In a heartbeat
You think you're so special
Think you're so sweet

What are you trying?
Don't even tempt me
Soon you'll be crying, unwishing you dreamt me
You'll be calling out my name
When you need someone to blame

I can corrupt you
It would be easy
Watching you suffer
God, it would please me

I wanna touch you with my little finger
I know it would crush you, my memory would linger
You'd be crying out in pain
Begging me to play my games

I can corrupt you
It will be ugly
They could sedate you
But what good would drugs be?

But I wanna touch you, with my hands on your hips
It would be too much to
Place my lips on your lips
You'd be calling out my name
Begging me to play my games

So I don't spam my LJ too much.

I'll expand on this later, but for now I wanted to post this song because I like it. I'll probably post it to my LJ later as well, but for now I wanted it here because it'll remind me of some stuff I want to write down and share.

"Peace"
Depeche Mode

Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me

I'm leaving bitterness behind
This time I'm cleaning up my mind
There is no space for the regrets
I will remember to forget

Just look at me
I am walking love incarnate
Look at the frequencies of which I vibrate
I'm going to light up the world

Peace will come to me
Peace will come to me

I'm leaving anger in the past
With all the shadows that it cast
There is a radar in my heart
I should have trusted from the start

Just look at me
I am a living act of holiness
Giving all the positive virtues that I possess
I'm going to light up the world

Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
Peace will come to me
It's meant to be
Peace will come to me
Just wait and see
Peace will come to me
It's inevitability

Writer's Block: There Can Be Only One

[Error: unknown template qotd]

Is monogamy suddenly like Santa Claus? I'm supposed to believe in a mythical entity called monogamy now? Do I burn effigies of divorce lawyers while making offerings to relationship gurus like Dr. Phil? Actually, burning stuff is always kind of fun...

*cough*

I suppose if you mean do I believe couples can have a sucessful monogamous relationship, then yes, yes I do believe monogamy is possible. I mean, considering my current relationship is monogamous I should hope I think it's possible for us to make it work. If I didn't, I'd be pretty stupid trying to force myself into something that wouldn't work for me. Been there, done that, got the therapy bills to prove it.

I do believe open relationships/polyamory can work as well. I may not want it for myself anymore, but I won't begrudge other couples from venturing down that path. I've seen some pretty happy monogamous relationships and some pretty happy polyamorous relationships. I've also seen some pretty miserable relationships on both ends of the spectrum.

It just all boils down to what's right for an individual couple. I really don't believe there are any One Size Fits All relationship types.
