"Is, it's hard, confusing, to be so incredibly up and then so incredibly down. Sometimes it hurts, when it happens, but it always hurts then. I was looking at myself in the mirror the other, yesterday, and it was hard to look away or move. I felt like I was falling out of my body and though I could see the drain I'm pretty sure that's where I was heading. I don't know how I came back together after that, but I did. The story triggered it, then I saw the pictures and it became worse because it didn't didn't seem like me and yet it was me, which hurt more. But I need to redeem myself for that paper so face up andrew because you've overcome worse. Just go and you will be OK. It took a geology lecture for me to realize that I'm alright so...thanks."
Those commas are more important than anything else in there, I think.
"I saw a guy who I haven't seen in a while - we don't know eachother and while it's not for me to saw how far he has fallen I can't help but think he has changed. Or maybe I changed. That possibility has been pretty common of late, more likely it has always been that way.
I can't help but think we all know only what we know, I hate that idea but how could it be anything else?"
Here's an old poem I found on my computer:
Shivering in the dark,
Watching the tips of cigarettes
Sway back and forth in the night
Like beady eyes of some
Cancerous predator.
I follow them like a moth,
High,
On some sordid promise of friendship.
Waiting in the cold,
Longing for an offer from these strangers
That are queer like the shadows
Cast from the street light.
Members of a vaporous cult
I envied from afar.
Cast away,
As they knew me better
than I, myself.
