life reminders for the memory-impaired.

good bye.

One in the morning on a school night,
And your laughter
Is messy and full of static
Playing back in my head
Like a radio.
The screen of my cell phone-
Bright and warm
Against my cheek.
I hear you from miles away; feel your
Presence beside me.
Our conversation reminds me of childhood.
Such innocent talk
And humble matters.
Though not immature nor inappropriate;
It's just right.
Stay awake, keep those eyes open wide
If only for a few more minutes
Because we can't stand to leave.
Not just yet; now's too soon for our
Sad, sad depart.
My speech reduces in volume, slowly,
But jumps octaves, cracks and shakes.
Anxiety and nervousness are not the cause-
I'm sorry, I'm simply
Bad with my goodbyes.



Just something simple I wrote quite a while ago in algebra class after the night before....hm................
This inspires me to write a poem everyday, like Vincent's goal, long ago? xD
Or at least I'm considering blogging everyday, because many people read my blog, which I didn't know of. Apparently you guys are afraid of sounding like stalkers.
And I love writing these.
They make me feel happy and accomplished.


Today was a good day. The lights were off in Jagtime. I tend to have better days when they are.
I hate too much light, most of the time. I wish it were always darker. Not like pitch dark, because that's one of my fears. Again with the contradiction.
But yeah, everything's better in the dark, in my opinion. People don't understand that; they complain.

Like I said, all went well today aside from when my goggles fell off during time trials and I had to pause and re-adjust them, roar. But somehow, surprisingly, I caught up to the other swimmers anyway :)
