Taking to the Road
June 23, 2008
I’ll be taking to the road soon with nothing but memories in my pocket. My weary soul is broken and I don’t know where I’m going but I feel that wandering might be my healing. I’m sorry if I’m leaving us behind but I no longer have the common sense to hold me back. I have suffered more than I can endure and now is the time that I must find out who I am and where I’m supposed to be. I don’t have the strength or the faith that you’ve got to keep swimming against the river. I’m sorry for this goodbye and maybe someday we’ll meet again but not today. I love you.

Flashpoint Heartache
June 23, 2008
I am nearing the flashpoint in the extremity of life and I am tired of stumbling along with unsteadiness. My emotions may get the best of me and I may succumb to the emptiness that beguiles me. I am forever lost to the wind as my ashes are carried upon the currents. At least we were together for a while sharing moments hand in hand. Hold on to the memories for a time then bury them as you say goodbye. Well, at least we tried.
