Me: i am happy
Tyler: as am i last night was wonderful
Me: wonderful like thinking the milk in the refrigerator has gone bad so you cannot eat cereal in the morning and then finding out that not only is it good but your father already made you homemade waffles with strawberries? or some other kind of wonderful?
Tyler: i feel they are on par. If anything just a tad above it
Me: what is that like?
Tyler: like spending time with the person who makes you happy, who you can spend eternity lost in their gaze
Me: eternity is a very long time

I suppose I could say he’s a genius or the guy everyone is after. But what could be better than just gesturing furtively and whispering in your ear ” A softer world.” Let it roll around. Mull over the words. Google it. Go to asofterworld.com. Breathe in the few hundred strips.
I guess you could say I got Overqualified for Christmas and have followed the comic for years
Forever
You lose people. It happens. Sometimes you lose people who were there your whole life, before you could even tie your shoes. Sometimes you stay strong for everyone else in the aftermath. Sometimes with everyone else openly grieving they forget to ask you if you;re fine. But after a few months it is old news to everyone else.

Where Were You?
There are so many interesting things about a leader. One is how everyone comes to you to fix things. Things you had nothing to do with or know nothing about. It is impossible to say no. The other is how you have no one to come to. Who is there? My scholarship notification is late. Jobs are looking tenuous at best. Friends are drifting away. Decisions are not supported. Daily life is stressful....
Legality
I am drinking Sunkist as if the artificial flavor of citrus, a summery taste, could capture my soul and warm me on this wet, cold december day. Also maybe I’ll place some votes on love.

I Slowly Start to Give In
It feels so good to sing to an empty house. I feel covered in fingerprints. And I feel the eyes on me where I go. And those little vacuums of space between stars stare accusingly. Do I know what I am doing?
“i trust you”
