Perhaps, years from now, you'll think of me, and this is what you will see:
you will know love (you already know heartache)
and you will wonder as I wonder now:
what could it all be?
There is no power equal to the power of love.
This is what I hope you see
in me.
(and afterward)
I couldn't decide on a title, even after I finished here today.
Wanted to say something big about how much or how intense
it has all been. how something so short-lived, so meaningless in the vastness that is time,
can carry inside it more meaning than can be lived in a lifetime?
How did it come to this? How have I fallen so far this way?
What does it all mean? Will I ever understand? Will I ever know
with the certainty with which I think I know now
all that is wrong (seemingly) and all that is right (alarmingly)?
Monumental.
my highlight/My High Light, really/
But none of them sounded so good as a prayer from my lips to yours.
