I'm glad my
appetite
is slowly starting
to come back
and the feeling in my
gut
is lessening
every time
I picture
your
(old) face
(the new one makes
me sick)
new feelings
are arising
changing
evolving
hoping
for something fresh
something
different
momentarily,
life has never been so good
or tasted so sweet
like the boxed wine on my tongue last night
or the feeling of walking outside after the sun comes up
after not sleeping all night
and talking
singing
screaming
breathing
that the good times aren't killing me
just
yet
I'm recalling two girls sitting on a rooftop, sipping, spilling their beer while singing old Jimmy Eat World. Everyone knew the song once the chorus could be heard clearly. . .
"It just takes some time
little girl, you're in the middle of the rideeverything, everything will be just fine
everything, everything will be alright alright"
It was two AM and people started singing along loudly in downtown Gainesville.
I couldn't hide my grin, my excitement.
It was like they were singing to me.
