goats

So I live in the city.... Ok. I like to pretend I live in the city, I live in the midwest, outside of a city.
And... Well... A few houses down we have goats on our street, yes, goats. And, basically, they don't like me. I don't know why! But every time I walk by this house these goats book it to the fence and hiss at me, you read correctly, they hiss at me. So I snapped a silly picture of him so I could get back at him by making fun of him on the internet! Take that goat.

Scared to Fall

Torn to pieces, fallen apart
Is there nothing left
Of this broken heart?
I myself, a victim of theft

I walked alone to the end of the cliff
Staring off into the distance
Overcome with a feeling of miff
I stare down at none-existance

My heart feels so empty
And my skin, so cold
A life left behind where I had plenty
But it is gone, and I stand here bold

I just hope the angles will carry these broken pieces, because I am scared to jump. Scared to fall.

Forever

The day slowly drew nearer and nearer, she was just weeks away from her life being changed forever. And she was so excited. She knew what most people thought, "Change is bad!" "One small step at a time." She slowly closed her eyes and looked down at her empty hands, well screw that, she thought, I'm done being patient and waiting, forever is around the corner and I'm not missing it.
     Weeks had gone by now.
"One day. How can it only be one day away? Seriously it's tomorrow," she smiled as she talked into a phone, and glanced down as the voice on the other side spoke softly to her. After listening for a few seconds she smiled wide again, and spoke gently and quietly, "Everything will be perfect." She smiled once more staring back down at her empty hands and holding them tight into fists imaging they weren't empty.
    The very next day.
Crying and yelling... Tires skidding across the road... Smiles, full of pure joy, showing on two faces in a dark car... "I felt like this would never happen." "I told you, it would be over before we knew it." She looked down at her hand and saw another hand tightly enclosed with it and smiled as she squeezed his hand tighter.

     Forever
