Happy 4th

Sat Jul 4, 2009, 8:59 PM
Many years ago an ex's father and I would see how we could out do one another with fireworks. One would get the large devices, the other would get the smaller ones in bulk. We lit up the street, the sky, almost blew up the girlfiend's car (according to her), and I nearly lost an eye. Good times.

More recently I became used to the sounds and feel of larger rockets and devices, the kind that make craters and destroy vehicles. "Used to" in that when it happened there, my reactions were pretty relaxed. Over here now, not so much, even though the lights and sounds are coming from the smaller, realatively harmeless pyrotech.
It's getting better, but the holiday has still been somewhat unenjoyable for the last few years.

I'm almost numb to the sound of firecrackers/gunshots, mistaking one for the other left me diving for cover a few times. Now, it can still be either, but without the sound of a bullet zipping by, or impacting nearby, my reaction isn't as noticeable.

Girl: Do i ever cross ur mind
Boy: No
Girl: Do you like me?
Boy: Not really
Girl: Do you want me?
Boy: No
Girl: Would you cry if I left?
Boy: No
Girl: Would you live for me?
Boy: No
Girl: Would you do anything for me?
Boy: No
Girl: Choose--me or ur life
Boy: my life
The girl runs away in shock and pain and the boy runs after her and says...

The reason you never cross my mind is
because you're always on my mind. The
reason why I don't like you is because
I love you. The reason I don't want
you is because I need you. The reason
I wouldn't cry if you left is because
I would die if you left. The reason I
wouldn't live for you is because I
would die for you. The reason why
I'm not willing to do anything for
you is because I would do everything
for you. The reason I chose my life
is because you ARE my life ♥

If you look at the mirror and don't like what you see
then you'll find out first hand what it's like to be me
