Bigger

I need to realize that the
Universe is bigger than me.

My friends have their own lives,
My family has things to do,
Strangers have places to be
Without time to smile or say thank-you.

The world will not
Stop spinning
To watch tears fall down my face.

The sun and the moon will not
Interchange
When I need a day to end,

For,
Today may be the best day of
Someone else's life.

So I'll look in the mirror,
Blurred with tears and a bad self image,
And tell myself that the Universe

Doesn't
Revolve
Around me.

but we are all a part of one universe, so we are all in this together. I love you Lacey, and its nice to see an update on your blog, I missed this.

Beware ;

I'm not afraid to ask stupid questions,
I love flowers,
I get left out sometimes,
I sing all day,
I'm afraid of losing my memory,
I create new identities for myself,
I'm a straight edge,
I cut up magazines,
I love doing crafts,
I like big teddy bears,
I invented the Mutual Palm Tickle with Morgan,
I try to see the beauty in everything,
I need acoustic songs,
I don't wear expensive clothes,
I like rainy days,
I'm freaked by fish and toes,
I don't wear lots of makeup,
I never make my bed,
I laugh really easily,
I love nail polish,
I change my mind a lot,
I don't take myself very seriously,
I like buttons,
I live by quotes,
I love France, and everything french,
I always say sorry when it's not my fault,
I live in the country,
I don't care if you're popular by their standards,
I brush my teeth for a long time,
You will have to live with the fact that
