Question

I walk
wandering alone in a frozen world
frozen trees
frozen sky
frozen hearts and
frozen minds

While I constantly search
searching for the unknown
the questionable
the non-questionable
the real
the non-real
while everyone around, lies frozen to the ground

Suddenly, I no longer need my coat
my gloves
my boots
my scarf
I begin to feel...warm

My quest will never end
for I search the non-existent
the inspiring
the loving
the ever-lasting questions
that my imagination creates

Dying Times

Dying Times

He lies in a bed
machines tell us he's alive, but only for a moment or two
his breathing very subtle
his vision fading
but he still sees the stars
the planets
the universe
adventures
the midnight sky

He still sees his friends
holding his hand
speaking soft words into his ear
though his hearing is dimming
he hears the waterfalls in Brazil
the call of the Albatross
the quiet-stillness of the night of his first kiss
the laughter of friendship

He begins to lose feeling in his hands
the hands which his friends hold on for dear life
and he remembers the soft touch of a rose petal
the wind on his face
the sun on his skin
the rain on his lips
the comfort of earth on his hands
still, he feels the hands holding him

He begins to fade
whispers a soft goodbye to his friends, his family, his wife
tears are shed
but he ask them to not cry
and though he faces these dying times
he whispers the words 'I love you'
and he begins to soar, soars higher than he ever could, pass the mountains
pass clouds
pass the sky
pass the moon
pass the sun
pass the universe itself
and overcomes, these dying times

Mama Mia...

Yes, that's right. Every time that commercial comes on, that damn song consumes my brain. It's going to be a great movie, but enough with the commercials. Tomorrow, I work 7 hours :-(
3pm to 10pm. Though most people think this is not too bad, it is to me, because I'll be on the sales floor alllllll day. So, yeah, not pumped.

Charlie is doing well. He broke up with Kelsey, but both of them will move on and live happy lives. Charlie, Dylan, and I are going to Chicago in August to see some lady that Charlie has a crush on. Shes a "singer." Yeah, basically she's a hippe with a harp....I know...a harp... *rolls eyes*
Basically, I'm happy to go to a concert with all my friends. I already started making a CD titled...*drum roll* The Gay CD. It's full of gay artist, because let's face it...this trip's gay already..might as well gay it the fuck up. :)

I'm going to show Dylan and Charlie all the cool places in Chicago...it's the least my $8,460 I paid for tuition can do. I just hope I really don't see the one person I never want to see again. Please, don't let me see him universe. *wide-eyes like in Anime*
This trip will be so amazing because it will be the first time I see Charlie since he returns from his internship. Plus, I get to see Dylan (who I think doesn't like me) again. The last time it was just us three, it was Penguicon, which was sooooo fun!

Well, goodnight world, I'm off to bed!
