It is what it is.
I hate that moment in time when you start to miss someone almost instantly. Something happens, a song comes on the radio and your brain works into overdrive. I've lost a lot of people in life. I try not to let little things in life bother me, but then the song comes on o some kind of smell is in the air. Then you think of that time, the place, the setting. The reminder of old buildings, raddy hotels, his perfectly styled black hair. The fact that he looked like Billy Warlock only much more handsome. His deep voice, handsome polo, tanned skin with a body underneath that shirt that one could only find in a magazine. Mostly, the fact that we had so much in common we did not know if conversation would ever end. Then you miss the opportunity to have gotten to know eachother. As silly as it sounds, I certainly felt something. My brain does play mean tricks on me, often in fact. But now in college enrollments and more assigned clients and tasks at work. Every once and a while, I have to stop and recollect that moment in time and wonder why we grew apart. When there was..so much potential to grow together. I had a dream about him last night, woke up and realized there was still no communication between him. It kinda hurts still. I never could tell you why it hurts so much, but it is what it is.

Out of a memoir...
As I whistfully leave with my blue scrubs on and prepare to do my next task...its a day where a strong flavored tuna sandwich wedge and the cool breeze in the air reminds me of the San Franciso breeze..I reminice on what might have been.

Redwood forest and Paul McCartney
YouTube link.
So it was a nice September day and I was going through the Redwoods forest. It was my first trip there and I was extremely excited. I got out after being in a car for several hours, and stretched my legs and bones. As I get there they are about to close the trees of mystery walking tour. I venture into the gift shop and the song starts playing. I glanced over and I see this man standing there. I remember his dark eyes and his innocent looking face. Why I do not know but he was staring at the press penny machine. I was across from him trying to pick out the first shot glass to add to my collection from the strip. Being in a brand new place a brand new state and observing everything and everyone around me, for some reason now when I hear this song I think of that exact moment. It's called let em in by Paul McCartney in the wings. I heard this song before and knew the artist. I did not know the title so I had trouble finding it. last night I was on a journey to find the title of the song by 1 single instrumental rift. A rift that I have been whistling for many weeks now. I admit this is not 1 of my best writing pieces. Yet it like the moment in time means a lot to me.
