Wake up tomorrow toss the gravel from shoe walk cleaner further away from where heel got caught I don't miss you Beside me sometimes holding my hand you werent aware we were touching anymore It doesn't hurt like it used to Without snap or click you have passed by numb circling overhead gone waiting for word to drop me from height I know it'll hurt again. Instant karma's gonna get you. |

At first I thought you were going to say something about the "shake the dust off your feet" and never look back, but not so. I see now. It was about that repeat that never seems to find it's way out of town. It hangs around like that guest you hear about the host wishes would go home. I think anyway.

"I know it'll hurt again." *sigh* you'd think the knowledge would make it easier to handle, wouldn't you? I wish it were so... It's hard to grow up and watch your friends remain in the same mindset that you left them in |

and no matter HOW much we know that it's going to hurt again, we are never prepared for it when it happens... good job Failure isn't failure if a lesson from it is learned ~ KS |
