my nieceis getting married
this weekend
and i am happy
for her
but i could be happier
my parents

like so many others
my niece

towards my mom

find the good
Tuesday, October 2nd 2007

because there is
always a tomorrow

there areso many
good things in the world
why do i focus
on the bad?
there are
so many
reasons for happiness
why am i feeling
so sad?
i am not in control
of everything
these days
my life complicated
by the simplest
of things
i don't feel confident
the way i should
the way i used to
when i woke up
every day
and there was reason
and potential
along the way
blah
blahs
that's what i hear
when people speak
and tell me
about their l...
