Wild Oats

I cried a river over you
without ever shedding a tear
I ran in terror from you
without ever showing my fear
I listened to the worst of you
while standing as still as a dear
I washed my hands of you
without a bar of soap near
I thought day & night of you
actively forgetting you in a year
I envisioned the end of this
without the suffering of silence in my ear

Every time I think to text you, I immediately remember that I don't care if I ever hear from you. I'd delete your number but I love the surprise of feeling that every time it happens!! 6. Touareg + Gun Powder= Yess!!! 7. Hand crafted items always rank higher in my book than mass produced goods. I suppose it's the old world charm that captures my attention, knowing ...

1. Hiking = my (re)new addiction 2. Its always interesting to be reminded of where you stand in someones life. I once believed that those whom I saw the most would hold me in closer regard than those I only see occasionally. I was wrong (yep!) and its never felt soo good to know the other side. 3. At some point in childhood we begin to remember days as seperate entities, Monday being different from Tuesday etc. I think its special when children don't recall the last day they saw but rather the emotion they remember you by. 4. Longer than (my) average hair is driving me nuts but I refuse to cut it.....yet 5.  Pity parties are worthless, costly, & over rated. Get over, you could be not living and then your worries would be reduced to the care of your soul... 6. I told you'd I'd call when something of merit occured.  7. I'm looking for a more p.c. replacement for odd man out. Any suggestions?? 8. Being told you possess untapped potential and actually tapping said poten...
