an excerpt

I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone wholl help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I dont want to be tied
To anyones strings
Im carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when Im asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
Ill get away with it

on one sphere. i can’t believe that you really are gone.

on the other sphere. you really have to be gone.

you’re  not this.

you’re not what i need.

you’re not what you said you were or could be or would be.

you have to be nothing now.

i summon the bliss of not knowing you.

but to do so, feels like i would not know myself.

somebody – depeche mode

I want somebody who cares

For me passionately

With every thought and

With every breath

Someone who’ll help me see things

In a different light

All the things I detest

I will almost like

I dont want to be tied

To anyones strings

Im carefully trying to steer clear of

Those things

But when Im asleep

I want somebody

Who will put their arms around me

And kiss me tenderly

Though things like this

Make me sick

In a case like this

Ill get away with it

SOTD – Just – Henry Ate

Lately I’ve been thinking what if I was wrong
And the world never meant you and I to belong
We’d have wasted so much time building castles in the sky
Only to watch them all fall down
Would it be all of our dreams so well suited to you and I
Could only be half acquired would it be worthwhile?

If I could just understand this
I might then try forgiveness
Know that I will, each time I feel
You’ll be by, you’ll be by, you’ll be by my side
In the end, we’ll still be friends
Ain’t it shocking how your sympathetic world amends
And in time, you’ll realise
I’m not what I seem inside
I go wild, I go wild, I go wild

Lately I’ve been thinking what if you were wrong
And all the things you’ve taken were never meant to be gone
You’d have given a gift from above so freely having given no thoughts to love
And would it be all of your dreams so better suited to someone like me
I would watch you achieve wouldn’t that make me so damn unhappy
On the level thinking back – I…

No if I could just understand this
I might then try forgiveness
Know that I will, each time I feel
You’ll be by, you’ll be by, you’ll be by my side
In the end, we’ll still be friends
Ain’t it shocking how your sympathetic world amends
And in time, you’ll realise
I’m not what I seem inside
I go wild, I go wild, I go wild
No if I could just

SOTD Friday

So,  here’s the thing.

Mine had me waking up this morning with this song in my head.

The last text of the day.

Everyone needs one.

I keep dancing.

Nothing changes.

I throw the punches and we laugh together at my dis-coordinated ways.

You keep dancing.

Nothing changes.

You smile and still, still the world lights up.

I need this weekend. So much. I need this weekend to shut my computer, my brain, my heart, down.

Just for a bit. Just to recoup. Just to muse. Just to remember who I am. To sleep.

The first day I heard this song I was fifteen, and probably not as fabulous as I thought I was.

That said, at least I was trying.

The first day I heard this song, I was on a field, under the sunshine, dancing to this great band (then Henry Ate) that would probably be on my walkman for  a long time.

They were. They still are. Except now it’s on my iPod as I walk down the street.

To imagine a day without you means to lose one day of my own life. That never changes. It just can’t and won’t.

Trust me on that one. Like you trust me with toasties.

In exactly the same way, that I’m really still that girl in the sunshine, attempting fabulousness.

I feel you were there all along. Strange as it seems.

I always knew somewhere, you were.

I knew you were going to be here long before you even knew which stickers you wanted on your car.

I knew it at fifteen, just like I know it today.

I always know you are.

That’s never going to change.

Trust me on that one. Like you trust me with toasties.
