What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
"i would keep myself...i would find a way." one day i will celebrate jim saying those words. if he doesn't kill himself first. i will say the alcohol has slowed down and the he wakes up not wishing he could just stay in bed. more accurately, there are some mornings he wakes and does not just want to stay in bed. he and his wife exchanged valentine gifts. he bought a card that spoke of a love that was filled with caring, trust, and time spent together. jim wrote, "there were moments in our marriage when i thought we were moving towards this kind of relationship. i am sorry for both of us that never happened. on our last valentines day together i do want you to know you are the love of my life." they held each other and wept. jim thought, "everyone i know goes away in the end."
