i open my eyes to begin the day knowing ill die anyway i look backward to the beginning of my time knowing that somwhere, i commited a crime at three i spoke at 19 i might croak i get weaker knowing i saw it snowing and for a minute, i forget the cries of "teacher's pet!" and forget the beatings the faculty meetings or the first girl i kissed everything ill miss life is a gift easily comes a rift as i feel the heat rise up my seat walking after dark walking up clark knowing, and crowing and overall glowing i think back with a smile on my face to seeing the footage of outside space to my first job to corn on the cob to what used to be noon to howling loudly at the moon to crying, to sighing to keep from frying to the memories of early fall to watching kids in the hall to saying goodbye to all my years saying goodbye to all my tears and saying goodbye to all good times to saying goodbye to all those dimes to saying goodbye to all my strife to saying goodbye...to lifeBirth sign: Aries
