There's a reason why I'm doing this
Somewhere, somehow
I set off with a passion and a purpose
That seems so long ago.
I decided it was worth it, not to wither into a selfish nothing
To surge on, keep on grappling
but I've almost had enough
and I'm
just
so
tired
.
When will I find the spark again?
I have some faith that
an ember of the passion I lost
still exists
somewhere between my lungs and beneath my ribs
Can my faith be ever enough?
May I find out.
I found out they the name of the place the heart is located is a " thoracic compartment called the mediastinum" but decided using that phrase would have been a bit much to use here.

Maybe another day.

i watch the Sun dance
off of her golden skin,

her curly hair
bounced in the calm wind,
the clouds fascinated by the way she walks
leaving little glances of rain in her path.

I walk right behind her
and her spectacular fragrance
that drives my will to be,

and the way she talks,
oh the way she talks!

i don't know how will getting
old with someone be,
probably full of misery,

but if i had to choose,
i would get old with you.

the one the sky feels envious of.
only if you were real

SonLy
Incluso cuando te sientas sola
o la persona que más querías
de repente te ha dejado olvidada
a mí me gustaría que sonrías
Aunque no pueda verte en ese momento
sé que en la oscuridad te guiaría
la esperanza que nace con ese sentimiento
de alivio en la sofocante melancolia
No te rindas ni llores por ese frío Adiós
nuestras sendas aquí están escritas
Quizás como una larga canción
a la que nuestras voces le dan vida
El viento se lleva ese complejo sonido
para apartarnos por un tiempo
Porque algun día todo lo que perdimos
volverá por ese soñado reencuentro
Sonríe por el día de mañana
él puede llevarse tu tristeza
Entonces volará de nuevo tu alma
y verás que todo valió la pena
Sería lindo decirte que después
nada asi volverá a ocurrir
pero la realidad es dificil de entender
y de ella no podremos huir
Sin embargo seremos más fuertes
más sabios en el corazón
Y aunque parezca que pueda vencerte
no dudes de tu gran valor
Porque yo no dudo ni un segundo
que detrás de esos ojos oscuros
Detrás de ese brillo como ninguno
se halla la grandeza de un ser único
Ojalá que en los peores momentos recuerdes este mensaje, y nunca olvides que estaré para ti

I didn't believe you existed in the first place
But when you did
I had the crippling fear that you would not want me
To me, beauty and happiness were always incomplete
I didn't believe that salt water could damage paper
But when it did
It was though my eyes were true to life
Speaking words of sorrow yearning for you

love isn't at all
the way it's portrayed in the movies-
instead, it is dancing on eggshells,
ignoring the sharp pains in your feet
because the music is still playing

love is
ripping grass out of the ground
tugging until you get to the very roots
of the person you love

love is
stained glass
it colors the windows of the soul
and filters the light that enters
in the most delightful of ways

LASTLY,
love is the headache after a party
knowing you had a fun time while it lasted
but now it's dark
and the fun is over
this is how love is to me... it might not be the same for you
