Thought for the Day

They say some people can't enjoy their present because they think too much about the past. I feel I can't enjoy my present because I think too much about the future.

Sucks.

"Resignation"

I love you
because no two snowflakes are alike
and it is possible
if you stand tippy-toe

because I am afraid of the dark
and can't sleep in the light
because I rub my eyes
when I wake up in the morning
and find you there
because you with all your magic powers were
determined that
I should love you

But lately I've been thinking how
I didn't hurt you enough.

Maybe there's more where that came from,
Something more malign.
Let me damage you again
For the sake of auld lang syne.

Yes, let me see you bleed again
For the sake of auld lang syne.
~James Fenton
