• ...i discovered myself again. I realized my pain does not help the grass to grow or the sun to shine. Instead, all of a sudden I missed everyone and discovered that the earth is not a cold dark place. I feel like this is my first breath after coma. Now that the moon is down, I looked into the air to find the sun's rays illuminating my skin. This was most pleasing, because I felt as if I spent at least six days at the bottom of the ocean. With the sun shining brightly on this unforgettable day, all I wanted to do was take your hand in mine. I understand, but don't worry, it's natural to be afraid. I'll take your trembling hands if you take mine. As our fingers touch, time stops. Instantly, as we look into each other's eyes, we experience the magic hours of love. Please, my love, let me back in. Although the glittering blackness can represent my mood sometimes, I want you to please, please, remember me as a time of day. My mood can linger on the birth and death of the day, which for you, seems like the catastrophe and the cure. Ah, but the love I have for you needs to be expressed now. Remember that the only moment we were alone before I could not express anything. But now, I have better human qualities...I need you to know that. It is time for me to say, so long, lonesome self, who for many moments took over my perspective of life. I am alive again. Now, with tired eyes, tired minds, tired souls, we slept. **These are song names and album titles from Explosions in the Sky. And the journal title is from The Outsiders (the book and movie use the same line)**
