Brave

When I'm not all I think I can be,
When I'm a little less than me,

When the boldness is gone,
And it's hard to move on.
I have a reason to be
Brave.

Barely There

It's been 3 years and 1 month And we're doing okay. Sometimes, though, brother, I forget that we've lost you We talk about you, and laugh about you, and tell stories. But, you're barely there. I don't want you to fade away I want to hold onto you. I try, but it's hard. I forget your deep tenor voice, your kwerky smile, your engineer-minded projects. Your passion for all things Subaru was contagious And your passion for life was just as much so. It's as if you were a brightly lit flame for only such a time Now, all I see is what one sees when they close their eyes after turning off bright lights. Dots and sparkles in my vision of where you once were. I know this is the way it will be until I see you again, but barely there is better than not at all.

Burnt Popcorn

Mmmm...burnt popcorn is one of the best flavors in the world. Disagree with me if you will, my taste buds shall to challenge yours to an honorable duel. While that sounds crazy,  I won't deny that the crispy, smoky sensation of chomping on exploded popcorn kernels isn't delicious. There's nothing in the world quite like it. I do think memories have a lot to do with my preference towards the singed snack, however.  I'm talking about being a part of a family of avid movie watchers. Seriously, we watch a flick a night. I know, I know, it's compulsive and terrible for our mental health. Still, popcorn is an essential part of this family bonding time. Popcorn coated in butter and salt simply makes any movie watching experience that much more memorable.  And then you add the burnt element, and it's like "wowsa"! Almost like being a part of the extravagant fiery sequences and explosions in every single Star Wars episode. While you can't feel the sco...
