water angel / 2002-06-30 - 8:06 p.m.
Floating in the pool. 'Angel' by Massive Attack working its way out of the stereo and across the water. Staring into the sky, watching stars and airplanes while my body drifts. Avoiding being social with everyone else swimming around, just being in the moment.

Listening to the singer croon, "You are my angel..." through the water, muffled notes hitting my ears as I stretch my arms and legs out, letting them float to the surface and back down again on their own.

If one instance in my life could be so perfect and so lonely at the same time, this would be it.
