i'm walking through the churchyard, leaves are scattering about my feet again. these leaves fall and scatter with no real destination, and in some strange way, i feel that i connect with them and their careless journey. i allow the wind to style my hair because on days like today, mother nature is such a beautician. i feel it being thrown around in the air behind me, a soft blur of deep brown. all is still and unreal, but the wind gives life to everything. it gives life and it takes away life, the green from the trees and the lush from the ground. a cold is coming like you wouldn't believe, but there's always a promise of new life, of new vivid shades of green and life. a green that could never possibly be reached again is a shade only i know so well. when i have woken up to the same set of green eyes for so long. i do not think the color could escape my mind even if that was my only wish. with a smile that speaks more sufficently and eloquently than any language ever could, words are never a must. but that green, that green. some things you just never forget.


the cold has come, but my insides feel on fire as i smile and look across the openness that is the sky. walking through the cold, the snow crunches beneath me. there are stretches of white on all sides of me. the air is a bit biting, but nothing that i cannot handle. my hands are purplish - why are they always so cold? placing my frozen hands to my rosey cheeks, i swear i can nearly feel the color - but why must my hands always be this cold? i light a clove and fill my lungs with its sweetness. vanilla ones have always been what i prefer. telling the difference between inhaling smoke and inhaling the cold is difficult. either way, i am fine. although i am petite, i have lungs of steel.

i see him up ahead. i see his breath in the air now. he cannot be that far behind. i can see his eyes from a remarkable distance, those wonderful green and brown lights set deep into his face. his hands are resting on my body now, i can feel their familiar warmth. we venture home to cold hands and a warm bed - any excuse for body heat. yes, his hands are resting on me now, and i know the night is set.

as a little girl, i often dreamt of rooms made of music, of voices coming alive and laughter being something that could never be restrained. i dreamt of black hair and a hand holding mine, of being so real inside that it made me raw and feel that i was glowing in the dark. i recall hopscotching on graves, having no real intention or care about finding joy above the flesh and bones that have long since passed by. i dreamt of the only thing that i am familiar with now - i dreamt of being happy with a life, a thing that seemed alien to everyone i had met. i had a pact with myself to never allow romance and moonlight to morph into the dreads of sunlight and dirty dishes. isn't it strange how you recall things like this? i remember wondering on this exact day last year where i would be. i have always wondered about the december to come. i don't really know why. maybe because a kiss occured in a december long ago that changed everything.

during the little hours of those december mornings, the redlights seemed to always be green. the city did not rise until the invasion of a new dawn, until the sunlight hit the pavement and blinded the townspeople to their wake through curtainless windows. we could have driven forever and still ended up where we began - on his side of town. it always seems colder there in that darkness of dirt roads, silence, and button up shirts. our skin so lovesick that every touch felt softer than before. am i making any sense?

i still reach for the world with no real reason and fill my lungs with the sweetest of air. i just like to spin around and fall into the earth, smiling and laughing at the spinning sky above me. some times that feels good. you need to keep childish tendencies because you should never forget your youth. you should never forget what it felt like to be free of absolutely any care.

of course, i'm not going to let these days escape my mind. coffee every morning and by night, the same set of brown and green eyes that have fallen upon me for so long that the colors brown and green will always be symbolic of him. the laughter, the friends, and the memories, and the hope that they will return. the strength to carry on in our youthful ways when all things go to hell. staying up so much that sleep is a foreign place. when every song and place in town is some screaming reminder of such a time well spent. how can anyone not enjoy life?
