Here goes!
This one I wrote a while ago but decided to share it...
"My Faucet"
When I'm in my room all alone,
I turn on my faucet and let it run
Down my face,
With water now it won't leave a trace.
When I'm in my room all alone,
I turn on my faucet and let it run
So no one can tell,
If it was just water or a tear that fell.
When I'm in my room all alone,
I turn on my faucet and let it run
In my eyes.
It's no surprise
That with my faucet
No one can see me, or hear my cries.
When I'm in my room all alone,
I turn on my faucet and let it run
Down my face,
With water now it won't leave a trace.
When I'm in my room all alone,
I turn on my faucet and let it run
So no one can tell,
If it was just water or a tear that fell.
When I'm in my room all alone,
I turn on my faucet and let it run
In my eyes.
It's no surprise
That with my faucet
No one can see me, or hear my cries.
Here is one I was working on today, it's untitled for now...
I held my breath the other day
To see if I could keep it forever.
I held my breath to see if I may
Hold you in me just for forever.
I inhaled you like smoke
Letting you spread through me,
Drinking from my pipe of
Those moments spent in love
With you. You were a sweet
Burning in me.
Awaiting only the time we would meet,
And I would be with you, you see.
But I was drowning in you.
Lungs burning,
Your sweetness killing me–slowly.
I need to let go, but I need you too.
With a heavy heart, I release you from me.
I exhale you, and I breathe in reality.
Because keeping you is toxic–
A captive bird dies,
But in me still, I can see your eyes.
You were like a breath, in a way.
As soft as the wind.
As redolent as the smell of roses
In spring. And as gone as yesterday.
You were like a breath.
And yes, I still love you darling.
I love you to death.
To see if I could keep it forever.
I held my breath to see if I may
Hold you in me just for forever.
I inhaled you like smoke
Letting you spread through me,
Drinking from my pipe of
Those moments spent in love
With you. You were a sweet
Burning in me.
Awaiting only the time we would meet,
And I would be with you, you see.
But I was drowning in you.
Lungs burning,
Your sweetness killing me–slowly.
I need to let go, but I need you too.
With a heavy heart, I release you from me.
I exhale you, and I breathe in reality.
Because keeping you is toxic–
A captive bird dies,
But in me still, I can see your eyes.
You were like a breath, in a way.
As soft as the wind.
As redolent as the smell of roses
In spring. And as gone as yesterday.
You were like a breath.
And yes, I still love you darling.
I love you to death.
Hope you enjoyed that. Anyways, today I did get a chance to venture out into the world a bit. I went to an old record store in Leucadia, Lou's, today to buy a new record for my record player that I just discovered how to work. I was looking for a Frank Sinatra album (I am a dear fan of Sinatra) but the store didn't have any today. So I bought a Beatles album instead–With the Beatles. In my opinion, you can never go wrong with the Beatles. Upon arriving home and setting the needle to the first song, I was surprised to by how many of the songs I had forgotten about. Though I had heard all the songs on the album before, many of them just.. slipped from my prefrontal cortex. Kind of like the way items of clothing that hang in the back corner of your closet get less noticed–less used. The older songs of the Beatles seemed to be hanging in the back corner of my memory. But they were still there, of course. And as each song played through once–then a second time, I realized that everything I am feeling is okay. That "It Won't Be Long" before I am feeling good again. Yeah, "it won't be long" until things are right again. The latter part of my day was spent thrifting with my friend. We went to Encinitas and checked out Thrifty Threads, Home, and Flashbacks. I bought a new vest at Flashbacks that I look forward to sharing with you soon. Afterwards, we had dinner at one of my favorite mostly vegetarian/vegan food places, Lotus Cafe.
Weeds learn to be resilient because people think they're ugly.
Top: Forever 21, Skirt: American Apparel, Socks: Forever 21, Doc Martens, DIY bow
Today's outfit included a three-quarter sleeve printed shirt, denim circle skirt, brown knee socks, and Doc Martens. What I like about this outfit was that the style, color, and prints were fitting for spring but the outfit was still comfortable in the 68 degree weather today. The quarter sleeves and high socks allowed for more coverage–thus keeping me warmer and allowing me to wear a skirt that is perfect for spring. The light-wash style of the skirt and the soft colors of the shirt were vert fitting for today's sunny, blue-sky day. The Doc Martens gave a nice "pop" to the outfit. The cherry color stood out against the spring and neutral colors.
