One of us will always know the truth.
If it was me, you know I'd share it,
But, unfortunately, it's you.

Unfinished.

I am far from alone, I just don't have someone to hold,
I wish when I was lonely you would know.

But history has shown that I feel and I fall
I'm not rushing things,
Impatience just took hold of me.
But I will wait forever for the moment to come to me.

I've tried before, and I've walked straight into quicksand
I've felt that sinking in my stomach and now I understand
We only have the time we make for each other
And the world doesn't change for those who haven't found her love for them.

I went home for warmer weather, and drove back through a blizzard.
I guess that's just another difference.
And things reverse themselves entirely, but in hindsight look the same,
'Cause they all tend to fail in keeping my interest.

Just a random thought:

I would gladly trade the ability to talk to humans for the ability to talk to plants and animals instead.

Routine had taken hold. He'd been awake for about 25 minutes, and already he knew almost exactly how his day was going to go. He looked around the classroom, wondering whether or not anyone was truly interested in the substitution patterns of cyclic hydrocarbons, or if they were just memorizing it so they could pass the class and forget about it. He knew when the time came, he would pass the tests, and that's all he needed to do. But everyone else in the room, it seemed, was actually giving this short, stocky woman, all too excited for the hour of morning, their undivided attention.

He looked to his left, where his friend sat drawing. He was the only other person he knew who would never bother paying attention to the woman while she used pathetic sexual innuendos to pique our nonexistent interest in chemistry at this equally pathetic college in Maine.

Something stirred inside him, an urge to just get up and leave; the problem was that, in a classroom of 50 students, it was impossible to go undetected, and, by this school's unjustifiably high standards of itself, tantamount to slapping your teacher in the face. Although, he wished he could do that, too, if for nothing other than having to sit through all of her disgustingly inappropriate jokes about her and her husband.

Meanwhile, life dragged on along the coast of New England, the same as it always does, frigid February waves fall on the beach, and slide out under the next. Students fall into place in their classrooms, and are replaced by the next set an hour or two later. The thought of how people even went on with their lives without an ocean in their backyard crept into his morning mind. Stretching his arms over his head, he let out a sigh and wondered what the Great Plains looked like, or the Southwest. Places that rolled on for miles without the constant beating of waves on the days of peoples' lives.

"...And if you see two peaks in the aryl region of a proton NMR..."

And so the day went, drifting in and out of consciousness and caring. The sad part was... it was a good Wednesday.

P.S.

I'm making it a point to write more often, just to get away from that.

I could sell this and watch someone make millions, but that someone isn't me.

Hints of summer in February air
Make me wanna drive south til the sun still keeps the trees bright green
And people don't need to layer up in clothes
Just wrap up in each other if the nights get cold

Chorus:
See the world has so much more than you realize
People, cultures, and the way they look at life.
You could find yourself so far away
From home, I just wish you were here with me.

I'm sick of saying I can't wait to leave
There's nothing holding me back, but I'll miss the Northeast
I'm almost sure there's nothing waiting for me
But where's the fun in planning things? (I think I'll just leave everything)

(Chorus again...)

Meet me in South America
We'll learn how to dance.
Or we can cross over the Atlantic
See England and France
I'd walk my way through the world if I was given the chance
But I'd rather never walk alone
(You know I'm terrible with phones)
I hate the thought of me without you in Rome
So just take my hand.
