Musings at the crossroads of hope and heartache, sight and sound, God and Randy Savage.

I wrote this for Brett.

Whenever people ask me
where I’m going or where I’ve been,
I usually don’t respond
and hold up a mirror instead.

Then they just walk away
and, wondering what went wrong,
I turn the mirror around
and slowly, sadly realize
it was always only a picture of myself.
