I'm a lot like you were...
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.
Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.
Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.
Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.
I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.
Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.......
Ignore me. I'm disillusioned. I'm in one of those *these songs were written for me long before I was born* phases. And I don't have a single original thing to say.

I do not want to be responsible for my decisions. Period.

What is it about me
That makes you want to make me see
Reality?
I see only too clearly
That you envy
The fact that my dreams
Are extremes
That you can't reach
Bound as you are by your realistic seams.
All the reams
In the world don't seem
To hold a tenth of my dreams.
I won't go to extremes
But ask me real nice to share my dreams
And I just might play along.
Don't shove reality in my face
When you don't see it yourself
For you don't belong
In my dreams
for my faith, only they redeem
and YOU make me want to scream.
"Denial is the best place to be."
So pray tell me
Won't you tell me
What is it about me
That makes you want to make me see
Reality?
Please let me be.
Just let me be.
Oh won't you let me be ?

A sonnet in vain - In twain.
Wonder when your soothing words
Began to abuse and reverberate.
Wonder when your silken touch
Began to poke and humiliate.
Straining to hear you whisper
Whilst you scream in my ear
Dawns the sepulchral finality of it all
An avowal that is oh so severe.
In twain we have sadly split
Asunder and in abject defeat
Nothing separates the two of us
Pity the twain shall never meet.
If this is all there is to you and I,
How can I blame all that I’ve let go by ?Posted at 02:25 pm by Maddie

To all I've loved and given up on...
...And that ole devil, my conscience keeper,
Doing a little jig on my shoulder
Says, " Time for you to eat humblepie
'Cos your world just got a lil colder."
With a flick of my finger, smug as smug can be,
I reply "Oh do be quiet,
Don't you know it is that time of the year
When I go on a diet ?"
On my headphones - Robbie Williams "Singing for the lonely"
"I'm so sick of people's expectations,
Leaves me tired all the time.
If your home's full of worthless aggravations,
Don't bring it to mine...."
I so rest my case.

I don't know you well enough to claim that I know you. But I do know what you're feeling now. And I also know that it won't last.
These double whammys that life throws at you are just small bits that add up to a whole. Of making you the person that you will be tomorrow. The person that you know not yet you can be.
You will learn that even if the darkest hour seems to stretch endlessly, it has just 60 minutes and you can battle it because you know that it will dawn sooner or later. Because YOU will it to.
You will learn that no matter how much you try to kid yourself, no one can love you the way you do.
You will learn that itsy bitsy teeny weeny heartbreaks are just fuel that make the flame burn brighter.
You will learn to carry a torch for yourself, moreso after walking through many tunnels. You will learn to shine it for yourself. Even if there is nobody on either end to tell you that yes indeed, there is light.
You will learn that you can't make sense of stuff that are not meant to be made sense of.
You will learn to look back and laugh at these little gaffes and momentary lapses of reason. They happened only to help you look at the lighter side of life.
You will learn to see the concavity and convexity of the world, when you're on a swing, without any cares. You will learn to lean back and look at the world upside down and not be concerned about your delicate sense of balance. You will learn to fall on the ground with a whump and feel good that your ass hurts. It goes to show that your heart ain't the only thing that hurts.
You will learn that all that's past is just the means to get to the end that is your tomorrow. When you will be older, greyer, fatter, balder, gassier and all the wiser. And for that, you HAVE to be young, dark haired, in good health, with a head full of hair, with a sound digestive system and unbelievably stoopid :P.
So chin up, square your shoulders, hold your head high and marvel at the blue sky outside. Don't bother about the clouds that seem to hover around you. You're an optimist. You'll be walking on them in no time :).
Cheers !!
PS : Yours truly needed to hear this as much as she meant it for you :D.

If I could step back in time...
(With due apologies to Kenny Rogers)
I'd only step back as far as when you came to me....

And change course.
