all i can remember now about the karaoke (all i really want to remember), is the birthday boy (a ripe 24) beginning to sing (for the third time). this time it was "with or without you." his voice came as a surprise to all of us, considering he looks like brian (from my so-called life). it's the sort of soft voice (not nervous, but inhibited) that you would expect to hear coming out of nick cave. & then he closes his eyes tight (preparing for the moment) red light surrounding (preparing for the climax) accomplishment. 24 years of listening to music is belted out of those lips (framed by the curly blond hair). accomplishment. [& my heart along with the bassline] [& the butterflies along with the guitar] [hands sweating][eyes wide][short of breath] [i am amazed] |
