nelson is in the hospital with pancreatitis this new years.
it's acute (it happened suddenly) for him. he's super scared and in a lot of pain, unable to smoke a cigarette and eat real solid foods.
it's a serious condition and he needs all the prayers he can get..

your heart is yours to use,
but it's not yours to choose.
love would an easier game,
if our hearts were ours to tame.

you can't help who you dig.. if i could pick & choose..
you'd still be around for me to kick it with...

a book

is what i will write, get ready 2009..

dying over here..

with anticipation.. why won't you tell me what's going on?
