Around here, however, we don&#039;t look backwards for very long.<br /> We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we&#039;re curious.....And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.<br /> -Walt Disney

Did my brother just frankly and unknowingly inform me
that I'll never be free of your presence?
Yes, he did.
Will I survive a whole summer of being beside you?
Maybe.
When do I get a break from worrying,
about how I look or act?
Never.
When can I look you straight in the eye and tell you how I feel?
Well, today would be nice.

...

That's impossible.
