hey my friend

it seems your eyes are troubled

care to share your time with me

would you say you're feeling low and so

a good idea would be to get it off your mind

see, you and me

have a better time than most can dream

have it better than the best

so can pull on through

whatever tears at us

whatever holds us down

and if nothing can be done

we'll make the best of what's around

Crucible of an Afternoon

Hamartia

Cause I am hanging on every word you're saying
Even if you don't wanna speak tonight
That's alright, alright with me
Cause I want nothing more than to sit outside heaven's door
And listen to you breathing

Not too long ago i stumbled across the realization that life is too short. We spend so much time in opposition on petty things that we miss the bigger picture. Part of the reason that i decided to make this is for all of the people that have touched my life, even in the remotest places of my heart.

Erin:

My shadow sister i will love you forever and always (yes, just like the picture book with toilet paper on the front...) You're like a sister to me. No, more then a sister. Whatever the case is, i will never ever forget you. {i'm waiting for the day that we're both old ladies sitting on some porch (oh wait, you hicks call them "stoops" don't you?) in the middle of a thunderstorm and we both look at each then start laughing...} {fantasy is reality; you will walk on water; and i will be there to catch you if you fall}

Michelle;

My Fawkes and right-hand man... er... woman. ^^;; you can come to me any time for anything... even if my answer if dull as "...." know that i acutally am listening, despite what it looks like. Keep writing poetry that makes me cry in the hallway, keep stealing hearts to sell, and always remember that no matter what, we'll be friends till the end. Thanks for helping me through everything. i love you.

Merion;

My Shanks and partner-in-crime. I do believe that i am hooked on the song Crash (the techno remix... oh yes.) by Dave Matthews and it's all thanks to you.

Remember when.... you lost your shoe in the creek and you made ME go and get it? when we stuck baby powder underneath the toilet paper and planted plastic lizards all over your bathroom, only to hear your mom scream five minutes later? we nicknamed just about everyone in lunch; smashmouth, fishboy, prince, and uni-brow-boy come to mind... {I DO NOT LIKE FISHBOY! LOL} we'd shake hands/claws/feet with the stuffed spider named Webster everyday in Mrs. Hudson's class? when we actually wrote a very long, detailed letter explaining to Mrs. Hudson as to why someone had to shake Webster's hands after we were gone? When Shawn Martin (who's now a close freind of mine too...) stuck a paper clip in the electircal socket and fried his finger? when we used to communicate in chicken-language. (hey, it worked.) you left to go Ocean City High School and i waited till i got home to cry...

i guess you didn't know about that last one...
