this morning is especially beautiful somewhat painful why is it that the things that are the most gorgeous contain the overwhelming capacity to hurt?

its not bad a little nostalgic despite the fact that ive never been in this place, this state, this atmosphere ever before. its a slight scent of family at christmas or the unexplainable way that dew sits on plants in the morning, or maybe the familiar grayness of the sky coupled with its lack of limits, no industry, no powerlines dwarfing the sprawl of the sky, just surrounded and the mountains they are receeding and emerging periodically from the monochromatic mist and light, slowly revealing more and more horizon, more and more layers of more grays that make up extensive distance or the way you sing and your songs compliment the sleeping dogs and the hardwood floors aged with time, dirt, footfall and sadnesses, families and on and on and on and here we are in history creating the present and adding to it with our own breath, our own footsteps and our own sadness all the things we are trying to dust off and emerge from
