Make up for Lyric Monday

Let Her Go
By: Passenger

Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go

Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast
You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch, oh it dies

Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast
Well you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
'Cause you loved her too much and you dive too deep




I love this song because it has given me a new outlook on life. Not everything is bad in life. The only reason we recognize the bad is because we have had good. Also the few lines about about dreams and love coming and going so fast. It's true. They come and the go. Only true love and only true dreams stay forever. What sucks is that most people don't follow their heart. So we are left with a bunch of bitter people in the world. And they eat at us. They couldn't have their dreams... They gave them up. But we can have ours. I can have mine. And I am going to fight for them with every breath. I know there will be hard times. But after this song... The hard times make me thankful. Thankful for the good times I've had to compare them too.

I Just Want to Scream and Shout!

Sometimes I can't stand all the crazy stuff going on in my life. What is worse, is that I know it could be so much worse than what it is now. I've been in worse but sometimes I just want to scream at everyone.
The guy I wrote that poem about... He is older than me by quite a bit. I like him. I don't want to but I do. He is smart, creative, talented, funny, a perfect gentleman, and he is handsome. But I don't think we could have a future. I don't think he would want one with someone as young as me. I know he wants to be friends... But being friends is difficult sometimes especially when I look at him in his beautiful green eyes and wish he would just pull me close.
His eyes are amazing! They are so full of passion. He tells me his is run down by life. But I can see in his eyes so much passion. I know he has so much to offer to this world still. I just don't think he knows it.
We talked the other night about everything from politics to religion and ex's and sex. I think I may have turned him on a little, which kudos to me!
I know he is older than me. And that makes things difficult. But if he was younger, he would be different. And I like him the way he is. He knows so much about so much. I don't talk much around him, which is strange for me. I feel comfortable around him and nervous at the same time. I want to jump his bones but restrain myself. I feel butterflies and passion but also a connection on a mental level. He has already taught me so much about music, particularly jazz. Ugh, I am starting to ramble. I just needed to vent some of these thoughts. They were beginning to overwhelm me.

Other news: My blog is now going to have a lyric Monday. My favorite lyrics or some that have spoken to me that week. I'll be sure to post some for this week since I didn't do any this past Monday.

The Places the Heart Will Wander...

The heart wanders
into desserts and into storms.
But through the rough
Is when true love forms.
The moment two touch
For the first time.
Is like fireworks
In a cloudless sky.
Emotions run rapid
Coursing through my veins
And all I can think
Is when will I see him again.
Tomorrow it seems
Is so far away
Why couldn't it last forever
This wonder filled day?
The moment two touch
For the first time
Hands interlocked
And minds in rhyme.
I look at his hands
So beautiful and strong.
I want him to wrap me in his arms
And hold me tight all night long.
Oh the places the heart will wander
Drifting to and fro
Holding all emotions back
Until it's safe to go.
The first moment we touch
Your hand in mine.
Your heart wanders to me
And has frozen time.

I know it's been a while!

But I will be adding lots over the next couple days. I have a bunch of stuff stockpiled in journals waiting to be added.
