The value of a Christmas gift to people who aren't family

I want to get you a gift

for Christmas

because

I want you to know that you're special to me.

And it really is that simple -

but I don't know what to get you

The age-old dilemma

something cute?

maybe...

something silly?

maybe...

something meaningful?

maybe...

All I have are maybes and goals with no perfect gift in sight

that will fulfill my impossible requirements.

And so I ask you 

what do you want?

And of course you don't know

I don't know either!

There has to be some sort of wanting... bias... right?

The impossibility of a perfect gift for someone who means so much is nearly overwhelming.

What to get, what to get...

    Long day

    past where morning sun shines and into the dark huskiness of night

    fluorescent lights beating down 

    then flickering off

    a fanfare

    a reflection

    a redemption

  • Instincts

    Some things are just instinct

    like when I just ran to you

    as soon as I saw you

    and hugged you for -

    oh yeah -

    the first time

    very very platonic of course

    you're my big brother.

    Your solo is like sun shining through the clouds in my heart

    it's like a platonic ballad

    it's like you are playing

    through first loves

    and forbidden loves

    and grass in the summer

    and crunchy chips
