Will you sit and wait for the Great Pumpkin with me?

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown is a pretty fun, annual, pre-Halloween show to watch. From Linus' uncompromisable hope in the Great Pumpkin, Lucy's unnotorized document trickery, Charlie Brown's rock collection, and Snoopy's daring adventure as a flying ace, it's a great show. It's intelligent too. How many cartoons out there have a classical piano medley in the middle of the show?


Anyway, after watching it, I thought about how I want to find someone I can sit and wait for the Great Pumpkin's of life with. It sounds silly, I know, but whatever.


Anyway, I'm watching the Wvu game and am kinda bored, so I was just looking over a couple things I wrote a couple weeks back. I'm too much of a pansy to post them on Facebook, plus they're not very good, but I like them so I'll post one of them here tonight and the other some other time.

If Courage Was A Friend of Mine

 

The thought of all the chances left untaken

Pushes me to the brink, where I pine

To think of the unified hearts that could’ve been,

If courage had been a friend of mine.

When the winter comes, I see my need for heat.

It’s then that I see my need for a sun to shine.

But coats and falsehood are love’s cheat,

Courage was never a friend of mine.

The art of love is made up of many breaths

And continues on amongst many sighs.

I’ve always been the one that up and left.

Courage is no friend of mine.

The world moves quickly beneath my toes

And even quicker before my eyes.

Maybe soon heartache will be the one that goes,

If courage ever becomes a friend of mine.
