so im in for the night, dont really have anywhere to go or any friends to go around with. i was sittin outback on this lil swingy thing, with my used and brand new cds and my phone, just kinda chillin, enjoying the air and stars and such.
im lookin around...at the water, spacin off, lol lookin up at the sky, just kinda random. thinkin a lot.. that usually happens when youre alone.
i looked over at the tree, between our backyard and the neighbors' its this huge mango tree. i remembered when i was little, my dad lifting me up so i could get one. between me and my sister we got enough for all of us to eat for breakfast that day. its not like we just kinda took them either... the neighbor was outside, this nice dude, not a really old guy, like, 40's or so..lived there with his wife. yeah he was ouside with us tellin us to take what we wanted cuz they couldnt eat them fast enough.
i remembered that morning when i looked at the tree
then thought...oh yeah, the neighbors..i remember them...
i wonder why i havent seen the man outside at all yet?
then i truly remembered...
it hit me, alone on the dark swing, with "found a box of sharp objects.." blaring in my ears:
...they were murdered.
it was right around then i overcame my temporary paralysis and got my ass off that swing and back into the house.
with that i bid you all goodnight from florida...where it cant be all its cracked up to be.
