buildings and bridges

this bit of wisdom seems so appropriate, so i'm putting it up in dedication to a friend of mine who is her own kind of sunlight in more ways than one.

(oh yes, i am dedicating something someone else wrote to a friend.)

"Buildings and bridges are made to bend in the wind. to withstand the world, that's what it takes. All that steel and stone is no match for the air, my friend.
what doesn't bend breaks. what doesn't bend breaks.

we are made to bleed and scab and heal and bleed again and turn every scar into a joke. we are made to fight and fuck and talk and fight again and sit around and laugh until we choke sit around and laugh until we choke

I don't know who you were expecting. probably, some bitch who does not budge with eyes the size of snow. I may get pissed off sometimes, but you seem like the type to hold a grudge and in the end, I just let go...
