Salmon Bruschetta

This is pretty awesome considering we thought there was 'no food in the fridge' at the time...

Brushing in thought – crazy – when time was not mine – I want to hold on and make the sun never come. But only in the rising will value be found. The reality of an eternity kills all desire. And makes us worthless. To watch the sun run will bring a dense warmth upon me – making me realise in my milky sleepy dew I will wake up beside myself for all the years to come and that I would rather a hazy memory of warmth and a chance of a life that may have been than to have left no mark at all.
