Pieces of her . . . . . .

And I looked through the telescope, only this time I was looking back at a girl I used to know. She is not with us anymore :-) for you see, she was an innocent girl. She was a bit sad, she was lost. She was . . . . . . . . . . and now, every so often bits of her float by. She was a kindred spirit :-) insightful too. But she had these huge walls built around her and would do just about anything to keep these walls up.

She is long gone, where she abounds I do not know. Sometimes I am happy she tore some of the walls down, sometimes I want her to pull the walls up again, reinforce them. Sometimes I wish she had never been. She was the product of circumstances, terrible circumstances. Her walls were all she knew to keep herself safe. I empathize with her, I feel her pain. She needs to get over the past to move forward, she's been hiding out instead of dealing with it.

So help me God for she has to come back out, without the walls this time. Without fear, without a care in the world, other than God's word. That is the only burden I would like for her to bear. She has borne enough.

I Want to be Happy

I read, after watching the series and the phrase never caught on, well that was till I was roaming around the internet that I came across this, by Lucas Scott on ‘One Tree Hill’ he said; “Happiness comes in many forms -- in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else's dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be”.

I cannot remember the last time I let myself be happy. Without worrying about time, others, how much, how long? There’s always something nagging, some reason why I just can’t let go and just be. But all I want is to be happy. Problem I have been worrying left right and centre that I cannot remember what it feels like to relax.
If it’s the last thing I do, I’ll remember how to.

I just hope I will not be alone and that it will not be too late. On the same show, someone else said, ‘Many people die with music still in them. Why it that so? Too often, it’s because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time’s run out’

The last thing I would want is for time to run out on me. I just want to be happy. I'm the only thing in my way, huh? Before it's too late, i'm off on a be-happy tour. You're welcome to tag along.

You are simply special ...............

I never understood why you said i love you the first time you did,
I wondered why you would say something like that to me.

I was seriously suspicious when you tried so hard to get close to me,
I was more worried when you got me to talk to you.

I'm still surprised at how forgiving and understanding you are,
I must be crazy, i tell you about the crushes i have too!

You asked me to describe you in one word, you are SPECIAL.
Special enough to have etched yourself in my heart,
Special enough to share my crazy thoughts with,
Special enough for me to dare love.

Special to be who you are, to me, to the your family, to your friends, to your colleagues'
A gift to know, a joy to have around and a favourite to love.

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart)

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart)
i am never without it(anywhere
i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)

i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

"Unwritten"

I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned

Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips

Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten

I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way

The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
