If I can say one thing to you, a final word, all I would be able to mutter is the word "disappointment". My body shakes so much because my soul is constantly on the verge of collapsing, and more than one word would allow the goo to flow right out, to drown you. And in some ways, some where along the road when I so happen to run into you, I know it will be different. And yes, because we have changed, and because we always have been different, even the humidity couldn't evaporate the facts. But just wait, maybe there's a chance, a cork in the old bottle of mascot might just save the rich flavor we once had, maybe even make it stronger after a few years. For now, I will leave a candle in my window every night, because even without my sun, I have a flame that is bound to catch fire somewhere else in the dark. -Julia Aubrey Rhodes-
