Description
I found my old dictionary today.
The new one is sleek, modern. A quietly efficient affair.
No room for unwieldy clunk, like sentimentn. refined or tender emotion; manifestation of the higher or more refined feelings. or levity n. lightness of mind, character, or behavior; lack of appropriate seriousness or earnestness..

This old one, though, is well worn. Hazel green cover with a hint of blue.
Cracks abound, tangling in the weather loved pages. Nebulae pour through them, eviscerating the mundane with the profundity of it all.
Rust curls up in its crevices, stealing away the remorseless taste of time. I found the notes in the side, the ones with hearts.
The notes that beseech the stars aligned to give me one more day...one more moment.
A smile here and a smile there can be found next to words of import, small little things.

{
trust: n. reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, etc., of a person or thing; confidence.
honesty: n. freedom from deceit or fraud.
}

What a love I had for this old book. I placed it on the shelf, where the sun would hit it just right.
And maybe in the waning, sunflower light, I'll be able to smile like I used to when the pages were still new.

There was a note on the last page I didn't remember inscribing in the binding.
'Savor these moments, and remember them in the turmoil. For you had the faith to leap, it's only too bad that you sold your flight.'
