I keep expecting to turn a corner or open a door and find what I've been looking for all my life. I expect it to be something small, insignificant, easily overlooked.

You're going to do well in life. Just accept that fact. :p

I will hold my awkward bowl,
with all its cracked stars shining
like a complicated lie,
and fasten a new skin around it
as if I were dressing an orange
or a strange sun.

& for some reason, i think you should read this:

Have you considered following the almighty star penguin?
I don't think she actually *has* any followers... but surely she's good for something. I can't vouch for any love/peace/tranquility she may offer though... I'm a free agent as far as deities are concerned. ^_^

And find some time to hop on AIM again! Geez, it's been ages!
an stuff! etc! ad nauseum!
