good times, good tunes, good buds. 14 years of separation and reverence is the bridge between this time gap. 15 years of life and i've never felt this complete as long as i've lived. it's one of those events that makes you believe in destiny, and i wouldn't mind an arranged marriage so long as i could spend the rest of my life with my family on the west coast. 1600 miles away my entire life, but being there is like being at home. prepared my speech about how this is the missing piece to my endless puzzle, but i can't even catch my breathe around here. and bonds can withstand blizzards and floods and coastlines and time [or so i will pray]. i've flipped through these photos of us all as children and now that i've got these new images in my head of us all as young adults, it is too amazing to believe. and when i'm on a plane back across the country, will you be watching the sky? your faith is mystifying to me and sharing this experience with you will always be a treasure. you've always been in the back of my mind and the tip of my tounge but these days all i can do is think of you... and how i wish i didn't have to leave so soon. on my last night of this voyage i had a dream that boys in blue were marching by me in a single-file row, god's soldiers. the first boy had eyes bright enough to burn me and lips rosey enough to paint flowers on my neck, skin pure like porcelain and hair dark as coal. the second had eyes that shown like crystals and lips of a rouge to make any bud jealous, skin golden as the sun and hair that seemed to mimic its rays. being in your arms is like being rocked by the cradle of What-Is-Meant-To-Be. it's times like these when i'd trade my hands to be where you are, and nights like these when i wish i had no emotions. and its like waking up from a coma and realizing that you are alive, home at last. like the first song that made you understand you were living... the first song that made you want to exist. and when summer comes, dont let me be here without you.
