Instant Karma

God, today was just...

perfect.

Most days don't reach this height.

Most days lose their potential.

But today,

It was seized.

It was made into something wonderful.

Something so splendid,

There aren't actual words to describe it.

There is a record store.

There is a film called "Harold and Maude"

And there are people named Lily and Marie.

And a sky full of stars,

And there needn't be anything else.

Stars. And chilled air, and laughing like idiots,

Laughing to the point where you don't make sound,

Just sort of gasp on air and sputter

And grin,

And look really silly.

But so very, very happy.

There aren't words,

Aren't quotes,

That could fully encompass such a moment.

And I want to savor it for as long as I can.

Tuck this memory away somewhere that remembers everything forever.

Life is so beautiful.

Because there are stars and love,

And friends and records.

And people that just make the world wonderful.

And I just want to smile stupidly,

And dance,

Because I am euphoric.

On top of the world.

And it doesn't matter that my parents don't want to talk to me.

It doesn't matter that they aren't overjoyed too.

It doesn't matter because the elation is all mine.

I'm not sharing with them.

I'm selfish.

I want to keep these good things to me and my superb friends.

I want to just keep living and being a happy person.

Sometimes,

I can be an optimist.

Just depends on the day.

Today was one of those days.

That's like, two of them in a row now.

And things only get better, right?

But what's better than perfect?

And I just want to say,

That watching Harold and Maude has made me think,

And not in a depressing way.

In a jubilant way,

Because in the end, everything somehow worked out.

And this blog post wouldn't be complete without some mention of him.

I want to watch Harold and Maude with him.

I want just continue to be stupidly in love with him for once.

Something about him just makes me happy,

And I'm not beating myself up for feeling that way right now.

Life; harmonized.

Goodnight,

Or really, good morning,

Because already, it's a brand new day,

And I hope it's just as good as the last.
