snoring

i'm going to buy a cd of a girl snoring
that would really cut out this whole weird lonely feeling i've been having
that and a really big pillow just the right size for throwing my arm over
it's my humble opinion that anything can be remedied with the correct pillow
sometimes multiple pillows
don't want to hear something?...cover your ears with a pillow
don't want to see something?...cover your eyes with a pillow
don't want to feel something?...pad yourself with a properly fitted pillow
etc...
i've got this pillow...
well...i haven't washed it in a long time
why?
well...there was once this one girl...
long story
anyway...she left just enough of her perfume/shampoo on that pillow
just enough
that sometimes, at night, when i need a happy thought or two, all i have to do
is nestle my head into that pillow
usually happy thoughts
not always
sometimes they really aren't all that pleasant
i've pounded my fist into that pillow quite a few times
it's proven it's absorbent nature to more than a couple tears
i don't really like the thought that just crossed my mind
that maybe all that is really left of her in my life is dirty pillow
and i wonder what small part of me she keeps with her...if any
i wonder if she has a dirty pillow with my cologne/shampoo smell on it
anyway...
if you know where i can get a cd of a girl snoring, let me know...
