10-27-09 - Alone

The clock dials move, the time goes past and I feel the dark enfold
The hours crawl by and days roll on as I feel the time get old
I wonder if I should move, I wonder if I should think
Maybe I’ll just go to the kitchen, and get myself a drink
I cannot change the past as much as I need
I want there to be a future where I do not move at this speed

The empty space grows larger, just how large I cannot tell.
The gnawing inside myself for now I cannot dispel
The presence and the life once led are something sorely missed
While others reach from afar to save me from the abyss
The tunnel of dark stretches onward and deep, no light is there in sight
In brightest part of the coldest day the time still feels like night

From dawn to dusk, from horizon to hill,
The valley is wider and the river is not filled
It’s said Time heals all things and makes pain go away
But that time is not now, and that time is not today
The world has changed and we are here to stand witness
What is gone is still gone and forever is what is missed
When no one else is there and friends return to where they dwell
That is when I am alone, and my heart is alone as well

10-18-09 - Back from There

I know I said I was not going away for vacation but hey sometimes we need to get away. I took the ride up with Carlo, Rob, and Trec and hung out for the weekend in Montreal. I enjoyed time by myself in between the parties as well as the city and meeting new friends and did plenty of dancing the night away.

I feel good to have come back clear-headed and upbeat with plenty of good times with friends and good music to remember.

Thinking more and more about what my plans past the time of vacation, it seems to be I think I am still up in the air but at the same time my thoughts are settling down. The flux of events is rolling by in ways both expected and unexpected. Despite the madness that keeps occurring I am enjoying myself regardless. As I must.

My friends seem to be in flux now too. From growing more distant, to growing closer to just acting strangely. I think sometimes I just need to be there to witness and to catalyze the changes. The chaos has no meaning without a witness to tell the tale. I will watch, wonder, and then smile..

Special thanks on my multiple nights out in the city:
