wrote this a few days back on a scrap of paper and found it squished with my review (ugh) papers. the months-long (or was it year-long?) hiatus on writingslashblogging has taken a massive toll on my grammar and vocabulary. it's gonna take a lot to bring the old habit back but i'll try my hardest. even if no one visits this site anymore. *3*

the reflection is barely visible in the rain drenched concrete road yet i recognize it like a dear old friend from a yearbook of several summers past. i wonder if people ever notice it--notice themselves staring back, illuminated faintly by the streetlights and shops that are never open to anyone's heart. wonder if they wish silently to themselves to be on the other side of things where regret was just another unfamiliar word found in tattered books and songs. but time isn't made for wondering aimlessly into forever or the end, eyes weren't meant to look down or back for long, and like the rain that dries up into nothingness, so do the musings.

We are but different pieces of shattered glass that never reflect the same thing.

Digging up a long forgotten song, and hearing it after so many years feels just like finding a part of yourself stuck somewhere in between the nostalgic old melody and phrases--something I never thought I'd be able to relive again.

Cheers to you, Travis.

What i love about Sundays is..

the complete, utter lack of the need to do something.. Sunny, quiet skies with the occasional sound of giant metal birds slicing through the air make for a perfect day of being a lazy bum. If only it weren't so damn hot it'd be paradise.

It used to be so easy. It was easy to just tap out the letters, see them form into words--into meaningful sentences.

It seems as if age has its way of putting us in a silent resignation. Like the words on the pages of an old book seem to wither and disappear with each falling grain of time. I still wonder when or where it started to manifest, this difficulty to write what i mean and mean what i write. Did it leave me that night? those nights? is there any way to bring it back again?
