Casting plans aside, insisting on instant attention

Sometimes a person, accident, storm, anything

Sometimes they are positive things that we want to spare the time for

Sometimes Not

A great chance at something wonderful

Butterflies, Rainbows and Waterfalls

All coming at you in an instant

Beauty and Fear, New things and Old

All unforeseen in the future of your life

Time getting away from you

Time passes if you are ready or not

The flowers bloom and die

Coming again the next year round

Covering and taking over

Unit the exits are blocked

The beauty that has to be cut away for the escape

A torturous adventure having emotions torn in two

Going forward to go out, or being trapped by the beauty

Moving along inside the comfort of the walls

The flowers of the season

The light of the days

Quickly fading inside the beauty

That takes over from the outside

Quickly covering all in sight

Bridges you burn

Nobody knows where they lead

Can’t see the other side through the fog

The sunset is beautiful and distracting

The beautiful back drop of nature

Makes you forget the fall

The Unsuccessful crossing

The bridge in suspension

Above the sparkling waters

In front of the horizon

You stare at the silhouette

Wondering if you can use it

Wondering if you can cross

What if it falls behind you

Then you can only go forward

What if you find a hole and can’t get across

Trapped in the middle of indecision

Rising up above the rail and looking down

Wondering if it’s the only way out

Looking at the beauty of the sunset

And the calmness of the water

Not able to enter either side

The small peaceful noises of the lake surround you

Enjoying nature as you look out on the view

The sun is setting in the distance behind the trees

The mountains are outlined by the sun’s brilliant rainbow

The cool breeze calms your soul, almost like magic

Walking by the water hands clasped

The paired reflections clear on the water

Wondering how you managed this

The beauty of the place matched with the feeling of your heart

Your soul reflecting the calm of the water, as you know all is finally right.

Snatching the moment

Not wanting to let it go

Not wanting time to move

Wanting to stay in the moment

The precious moments that make life happy

The precious moments that make you want to live

The moments that remind you of what beauty is.

We flip through the memories

The pages that have caught the glimpses

The pages that we want to live in

Because those pages have the happy moments

The love that you know

The love that you’ve seen grow

In those pages you can see,

The love and beauty that make life worth living.

The dark but non threatening clouds that hang about

Sometimes it’s hard to appreciate the beauty in front of you

It can be right in front of us and yet we miss it some how

Maybe we’re preoccupied…maybe we’re simply not looking

I wonder how many things people miss every day, gorgeous sites that everyone should love and appreciate and yet they’re not even noticed because of the way we live our lives…..

Our culture is so face paced these days…when was the last time you could take a step back and appreciate the beauty right in front of you, maybe in a person, maybe in nature, maybe in an atmosphere???  I believe there is beauty around us most of the time, it just depends if it can shine through to distract us from our problems or stress….or be bright enough to make us look up from our scheduled lives….

Always on the clock, tic toc, tic toc….Most of us fall into the nice little routine, which is fine but then what if you deviated just long enough to see a beautiful waterfall…or stop to appreciate the power of the lightening in the storm…or the charm of your own home???  What things do we lose every day by allowing ourselves to fit into a mold?

Why is it that some people lack the confidence they need when they look like a super model, while others feel that they are God’s gift to earth yet nobody seems to agree with them? 

What makes a person confident in their beauty?  Is it knowing yourself and being comfortable with that person?  Is it being flattered by random strangers or by the person that you love? 

What is the difference between beauty and sexiness, or pretty?  I think that true beauty really does come from the inside…I know I can find someone very attractive until they open their mouth and then I have to jet out.  Get out of the situation because they have lost all attraction in my eyes because of their ugly or shallow personality.  Although this does not bother some people.  I have seen people go after people they could never have a conversation with because they simply want to get them into bed. 

There rarely seems to be a common ground when you ask people what beauty is….Some people will automatically think of another person, while others think of a scene in nature or a painting they saw once in a museum. 

So what makes someone beautiful?  How do we recognize that beauty?

Some people only need someone they love to appreciate their life, some people need to see a beautiful sun set, or hear their favorite song….No matter what each of us considers beautiful, I think it’s important that we don’t get caught up in all of the “have to’s” of life and forget about the things that we want to have around us.  It’s important to appreciate the beauty that surrounds us in life.  I think that without beauty, life isn’t worth living.  Nothing left to make you passionate, nothing to remind you of why you are alive.

Not knowing if you will even survive, but needing to find out despite the possible consequences….logic gives way…..Nerves, fear, submission to feeling is all that is left.

Not fighting anymore you are free; Free to feel what ever comes naturally; Free to do what is needed to get that release

Sobbing Strain reaches your ears; Uncontrolled emotions are released

You’re no longer inprisoned by your thoughts and logic, no longer looking for a way to hide what you feel…Simply allowing yourself to be immersed in the natural emotions. 

Feelings are no longer on a short leash but are the leader; your logical brain has no say in the matter;

The powerful out-pour of emotions is beautiful….It’s a beautiful intimate truth

Make no excuses, Just let it all go and feel at peace…..

I miss the sound of your voice
I miss the rush of your skin
I miss the still of the silence
As you breathe out and I breathe in

If I could walk on water if I can tell you what’s next
Make you believe, make you forget

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire in the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire in the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love

I miss the sound of your voice
The loudest thing in my head
And I ache to remember
All the violence, sweet
Perfect words that you said

If I could walk on water, if i could tell you what’s next,
make you believe, make you forget

So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire in the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire in the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love

I miss the pull of your heart
I can taste the sparks on your tongue
I see angels and devils
And God, when you come on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on love
Sing shalala love
Sing shalala love

Come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire in the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me in love
So come on, get higher, loosen my lips
Faith and desire in the swing of your hips
Just pull me down hard
And drown me, drown me in love

It’s all wrong
It’s all wrong
It’s all right
So, come on, get higher
Come on, get higher
‘Cause everything works
Everything works in your arms

I’m not exactly sure why I love this song so much, but I find it one of the most romantic things ever.  I think that part of it has to do with the melody as well as the lyrics themselves.  I don’t think that this song would be quite so powerful if it was not done with the melody and instrumentals that accompanies the lyrics.  I find the song almost hypnotizing.  It seems to have a deep meaning, something that my mind can’t even comprehend.  It’s amazing how some things can do that to you.  If you’ve ever been in love or been touched this way by something than you might know what I’m talking about.  Love is another one of those things that you can just feel…you can’t think about it because your mind doesn’t always comprehend the depth of the feeling….

Certain things just touch your soul and you have no idea why.  It can be anything from the look in someone’s eyes to a butterfly, or a painting or song…a poem…a sunset…anything.  And it’s going to be different for everyone.  Some people feel that way when they see a new electronic toy, or a new video game, or a car….it all depends on the individual.  At any rate I hope that we as a society never lose that, no matter what does it for you.  As long as we have souls that can be reached some how, we will be ok.
