Acquainted with the night

Ok, I know this isn’t one of my own, but it is just so incredible… There’s also a video at the end where you can hear it spoken with some kind of visual aid – so incredible.

 

Acquainted with the Night by: Robert Frost

I have been one acquainted with the night. I have walked out in rain — and back in rain. I have outwalked the furthest city light. I have looked down the saddest city lane. I have passed by the watchman on his beat And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain. I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet When far away an interrupted cry Came over houses from another street, But not to call me back or say good-bye; And further still at an unearthly height, O luminary clock against the sky Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right. I have been one acquainted with the night.

my glass house

 

i’m eighteen today and my party is outside.

i can hear them celebrating all that i’ve made,

but not of myself.

Counting Crows – Colorblind

such an incredible song just had to share it.

 

I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready

I am taffy stuck and tongue tied
Stutter-shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am fine

I am covered my skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded
And unfolded
And unfolding

I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready
I am ready
I am ready
I am fine

LIVE – Lightning Crashes

I didnt want to ruin this song by giving you my interpretation. here are the lyrics straight from the artist.

 

lightning crashes, a new mother cries
her placenta falls to the floor
the angel opens her eyes
the confusion sets in
before the doctor can even close the door

lightning crashes, an old mother dies
her intentions fall to the floor
the angel closes her eyes
the confusion that was hers
belongs now, to the baby down the hall

oh now feel it comin’ back again
like a rollin’ thunder chasing the wind
forces pullin’ from the center of the earth again
i can feel it.

lightning crashes, a new mother cries
this moment she’s been waiting for
the angel opens her eyes
pale blue colored iris, presents the circle
and puts the glory out to hide, hide

my crazy family.

yesterday i was at my family home and my youngest sister, who is 13, was shot in the eye with a capgun by my youngest brother, who is three.

WTF!?!

no joke, there were noises that could be heard from the end of the street coming from that house for 30 minutes straight. It stopped because she ended up going to hospital.

SIDENOTE: shes fine.

My Chuck Taylors

I have chuck taylors on designed by Albert Reyes.

There’s a quote hidden on the inside of it that says

“If you cant be good, be careful.”

Touché.

Just thought I’d share.

don’t worry my friend,

love will make you beautiful.

forget what was said and just hear my voice in the dark.

then you will see as they will

your new found grace and presence in this place

please ducky, i promise to you this day

the things we share

will be love, its first and last,

eternally blossoming and ever beautiful;

- just follow me awhile.

one day

one day – soon i know for sure

you’ll come for me like you promised

.

because we weren’t just a couple of kids.

because what we shared

was stronger than any summer love.

.

pick me up from here

whisk me away just like we’d planned

.

i’m holding onto a dream for dear life

im not idealistic; dont tell me my head is in the clouds.

see i know one day you’ll come

- you’ll remember what i never forgot

.

one day.

Dear Fellow: A letter

———————————

SO… is it?

       To forget everything.

Did you?

      To forget about us.

Don’t.

      It’s over.

I love you.
