    You be you and I'll be me, today and today and today, and let's trust the future to tomorrow. Let the stars keep track of us. Let us ride our own orbits and trust that they will meet. May our reunion be not a finding but a sweet collision of destinies!

    دیگر امیدی به پیدا شدن نیست.دنبال من نکرد! بگذار فقط افسانه‌وار همان‌جا که هستیم و هر که هستیم بمانیم. تو خودت باش و من هم خودم.امروز و امروز و امروز. و بگذار آینده به فردا اعتماد کند. بگذار ستاره‌ها مراقب ما باشند. بگذار در مدارهای خودمان حرکت کنیم، و مطمئن باشیم که روزی در آینده به هم برمی‌خورند. بگذار تجدید دیدارمان نه یک یافتن و پیدا شدن، که تصادف شیرین سرنوشتمان باشد! باز هم دوستت دارم و دوستت دارم و دوستت دارم!"

    I am a mess. Like that MargieMocha, I am spilled across a floor, but there's nobody to mop me up. I have only one thing to show for the day: Perry Delloplane. The sound of a name. It is a grape in my mouth. I roll it over and over on my tongue--perrydelloplaneperrydelloplaneperrydelloplaneperrydelloplane--but when I try to crush it with my teeth, it slips away.

    Today the mockingbird does not sound very happy. It sounds if it is coming apart. As of the very heart of itself-its song-is breaking into pieces and flying off in a hundred directions.

    A mockingbird has moved into our neighborhood. It perches atop a telephone pole behind our backyard. Every morning it is the first thing I hear. It is impossible to be unhappy when listening to a mockingbird. So stuffed with songs it is, it can't seem to make up it's mind which to sing first, so it sings them all, a dozen different songs at once, in a dozen different voices. On and on it sings without a pause, so peppy, even frantic, as if its voice alone is keeping the world awake.

    To have a girl two thousand miles away going to pieces over you, weeping at the mere memory of you, losing her appetite, losing herself and her self respect - well, that's a trophy enough for a guy's ego, huh?
