Lusting after...
These shoes.
The necklace.
Her sun-shades.
Anything on her right wrist.
The pants.
A similar tattoo.
Everything about Adriana Lima.
The bikini and the body.

Cold and miserable
You're like Houdini.
I can't get my head around how you're going to act tomorrow.
I feel like all I do is talk about Katy Perry these days, and what a frightening prospect that is!
"Cause you're hot then you're cold, you're yes then you're no..."
Temperamental.
If I seem brisk, i'm only trying to gauge your personality choice of the day.

To eliminate we must educate.
The Westgate bridge, Melbourne, Australia.
The 'suicide barriers' debate is one that is relatively one sided. I don't think it is an issue that many explore excessively.
Darcey Freeman, a beautiful four year old girl lost her life at the hands of her father on the Westgate bridge earlier this year. This inspired the Victorian Government to fastrack the construction of 'suicide barriers' on the infamous Melbourne bridge.
If you have read thus far I now write a WARNING seeing as my last mildly opinionated piece caused a lot of distress amongst readers. I am not in any way trying to be offensive to anybody. I am not trying to erradicate the construction of barriers nor am I condoning suicide or apparent murder.
The installation of suicide barriers is all well and good. It is known that many suicides are impulsive. This, along with the violently upsetting death of a child is what has inspired our Government to hastily construct these barriers.
I am not angered by this, atleast not dramatically.
I only find it tremendously difficult to understand why this is the initial response from our Prime Minister.
Depression and anxiety is something that is rarely spoken about. Unfortunately many people are ignorant and ill informed when it comes to such illnesses.
It makes my blood boil to think that we are more than happy to slander suicide and install barriers to prevent such acts however the Government has not tried feverishly to educate our population on the matter of depression.
Why should we let people get to the point of suicide?
Personally, I believe that we should instead be trying desperately to help the depressed so that the barriers are not needed. I know that is a foolish statement. As I said before, many suicidal attempts are impulsive. But surely that indicates that somebody feeling depressed and suicidal will unfortunately find another way to end their life.
It upsets me to great lengths to learn that our Government is preventing suicide physically and not mentally. We should be doing both with great vigour!
I desperately hope that this post upsets nobody. I support the barriers, but I implore our Government to do more about the issue of depression and suicide than this.

In the words of Katy Perry -
We fight, we break up, we hug, we makeup...
There are a number of cultural definitions of what a soul mate is but when I think of the word soul mate I think it’s best to separate the two words and define them independently.
I seek the definition of the word soul from the Macquarie School Dictionary that defines the word soul as being “the unseen or spiritual part of a person”.
I now hunt for the definition of the word mate on dictionary.com where they describe a mate as someone who is your “husband or wife; spouse”.
And so personally I think that a soul mate is a partner to your spirit, someone who compliments your very existence, and I would like to think that soul mates exist. I would also like to think that I’ve been lucky enough to find a soul mate within you. I am not by any measure trying to limit the number of soul mates that someone has in their lifetime. I’m not saying that if we break up I will ultimately be without a mate to my unseen spirit for the rest of my days.
I just find some comfort in the idea that you could potentially be “my other half”.
Today, on the Seventh of April you told me you almost made the biggest mistake of your life three weeks ago.
And it killed me when you walked out on me then, like so many others before you have.
But you came back.
And I love you for that.
Ever thine, ever mine, ever ours...
