well i guess it's time to write my novel. i'm thinking a sprawling collection of vignettes filled with mishaps, misunderstandings, wonder and amazement, in order to explain some sort of anxst toward growing up and learning life lessons.
i got fired today. i almost lost the best friend i could ever hope for. these things are my fault and i am done feeling sorry for myself about them. well maybe not getting fired.
maybe i should...
the abyss of night,
at the waters edge
is just not quite
the proper depth
to begin to contain
the want or need
i attempt to explain.
this boy's heart
inside his chest
is the only part
amongst the rest
that seems to know
what life's about
and knows regret
and feels any doubt.
it aches for the one
that quells the fear
like a rising sun
that dries the tears.
