PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON

happens all the time, doesn't it?

just less than 12 hours ago, i was soaring on the wings of the word "passion".

ten minutes ago, i was brought back down with so much force it's created an indent in the ground.

two inches into the ground. that's where i am.

if my eyes weren't swollen from the lack of sleep, they sure are puffed up now from my active tear glands.

it's been a while since anyone's seen me with puffy eyes..."puff" is an endearing nickname, but for my sake, i hope that name isn't here to stay.

this is one of those times when i just need someone to sit by me.

to just keep me in check about crying. to be that silent pillar of support.

just for today. for the evening.

i was so looking forward to the evening at the esplanade.

now, i'm not even sure if i should go.

me and my puffy eyes.
