Peace

Thanks to "becoming brina" of Flickr for the pic!

I stare into the open sky

The wind on my back gently chills me
And I see the sea gulls drift by
I take a deep breath and let it go so slowly
My eyelids fall and it's night
I feel the sand in between my toes
And the wind blows it in patterns at my feet
I open my eyes and the waves crash in my ears
I look above at the sky again and see the clouds drift by
Wispy and high, and far beyond me
I look to my left and I see you laying there
I reach over and sweep the hair from your eyes
You look my way and smile
In this moment, all else has been forgotten
And we are happy

Family Issues

What a fucking night.

My mom called while I was at a friend's and told me that my dad left her after close to 30 years of marraige. He's gone now; took a bunch of money and left the country. I'm in a state of emergency, trying to find out how to get my ass across the country in the next couple of days. Normal shit to this. Completely out of the blue. Fuck...

On the other note, a friend of mine and her girlfriend are planning on moving in with me. Good news for a situation where I was starting to have to foot for my whole apartment (I was with a room mate for a while, but he got a job somewhere else and had to move. Now that won't be a problem, Hoorah!

What a disgusting stir of emotions. It's like trying to take a warm shot of cheap vodka after shotgunning the 8th beer you've had that night. Nausea.

I wanted to talk about my friend and her girlfriend, and their relationship, but I just don't have the heart tonight. I'll try again sometime when I can handle thinking about shit like that.

Listening to: Nothing

One Floor Down, One to the Right

One floor down
One to the right
On her phone
Smoking away

She's got no idea
All that's on my mind
Is how to break the ice
She's all that's on my mind

Playing my music
Loud enough to hear
Not loud enough to annoy
The lengths I'll go!

Soon this night will be done
Soon my bed will call
And I'll end this game
But for now I'll enjoy

Me and the girl
One floor down
One to the right
On the porch at ten
