sometimes we breathe the same by Paul Marinofinding my way through back
roads in may with certainty
that when i get home
youll be unsure
of how i feel.
we'll be one
flight up
and down again
to do laundry at 8
with full stomachs
and loads of lights
to wait patiently for.
at the time,
it should be getting dark. 06/04/2006 Author's Note: title by sarah mae

Posted by Michelle Angelini on 08/31/06 at 07:05 AM Gotta agree with jadi. I've never had that much fun doing the laundry. I guess it's the company you keep. CONGRATULATIONS on POTD!
