"it all will fall,
fall right into place...."

Stop and sigh
As I listen.

A graduation-type slide show
Playing as memory images
Flash in rythm to the guitar riffs.

All I can think of is you,
And the joy you've added to the last eight years
of my life.
And how colorless things would have been
Without you there
Trying to piss me off
With an insane grin.
And so thank you for pissing me off
Because along the way I learned
And you introduced me to Modest Mouse.

Author's Note: I think I liked it better unfinished...
