temporarily, approaching the end of the road, and the sacred Strawberry Swing

Most things, (if not, all) things in life are inevitably temporary.  The drink you may be drinking will soon be empty, the moon or sun in the sky will soon go down under the horizon, the people around you will come and go, until the end of time.  Times like these, when you just wanna stand still and stop time, in order to look back in retrospect, all of the things that have got you to this point in time.  For me, its this  end time, for others around me, to just finally pass onto the next stage of their journey through life.  Specifically, the seniors in my high school life, that continue to reach milestones in our little haven called music and theatre.  "For some reason I can't explain, once you've gone there was never an honest word, but that was when I ruled the world..." -CM.  I'm one of the many to go next, it's absolutely difficult to fathom how far I've come in this point in life, and through the people I've met, it's just been a helluva journey.  I'll be dethroned very soon, and the cycle will continue, but it's what makes this life so... entertaining.  Now onto the last point, the sacred Strawberry Swing... again this is inspired by none other, CP, and whenever I listen to the (titular) song, I get a sense of hope that always changes it's form.  It varies from here and there, depending on the occasion, but at the moment, I'm getting the strongest emotions from "sitting" on it.  It always culminates to having the "perfect day", where things just magically line up, for it is God's will after all.  Personally, it's an embodiment of all my troubles, hopes, and thoughts melded into an artistic product.  Sitting on Strawberry Swing, just makes me feel every feeling in the world, but it always ends on a good note... "Now the sky could be blue, I don't mind, without you it's a waste of time..." -CM  (P.S. not stoned, lol) I'll fly away now, a wop bam boom for now... -E
