and how might you say it
to describe two stacked up dots one white one red
two black hands that move
left-right-left-right
a man across the field and as he turns the bend he disappears
i looked away forgetting i was watching
and when i turned back he was gone
i never saw him leave
the wind blows calm and cold on my arm
hair stands on end
i have not learned yet
learned that this is not all there is
god did you ever stop and think
of all that will happen to us in the next ten years?

i like this and really....! what a trip when you do stop to think about everything you will go through and experience in the next 10 years. even one year ago, i never would have thought i'd be where i am today. or ever imagined it could be so dern awesome. love you jojo.

Thanks Boo. And yeah that's what this came from. Sitting and worrying about something or other and realizing that in 10 years it even matter. so many things will have transpired and changed that I can't even begin to fathom it now. love you too.
