I’ve been looking so long at these pictures of you that I almost believe that they’re real. I’ve been living so long with my pictures of you that I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel.
Remembering you standing quiet in the rain as I ran to your heart to be near. And we kissed as the sky fell in. Holding you close, how I always held close in your fear.
Remembering you running soft through the night, you were bigger and brighter and wider than snow. I screamed at the make-believe screamed at the sky. You finally found all your courage to let it all go.
Remembering you fallen into my arms crying for the death of your heart. You were stone white, so delicate lost in the cold. You were always so lost in the dark.
Remembering you how you used to be, slow drowned, you were angels, so much more than everything. Hold for the last time then slip away quietly, open my eyes, but I never see anything.
If only I’d thought of the right words I could have held on to your heart. If only I’d thought of the right words I wouldn’t be breaking apart all my pictures of you.
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more than to feel you deep in my heart. There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more than to never feel the breaking apart…all my pictures of you.
Your mind is always changing. You say so all the time. Don’t know how long you’re staying. That will be your choice, not mine. I’m learning you, by heart.
gotta love it…when your use-to-be boyfriend of 3.5 years tells you he loves you more than anything he’s ever loved his whole life as we go our separate ways, and still continues to say that he loves me. but is already seeing other people after just a few weeks…it’s none of my business, it’s not that simple or isolated, it was my fault?, everyone just needs to better themselves…i know, i know.
Cried all night ’til there was nothing more
What use am I as a heap on the floor?
Heaving devotion but it’s just no good
Taking it hard just like you knew I would
Old habits die hard
When you’ve got
When you’ve got a sentimental heart
Piece of the puzzle you’re my missing part
Oh, what can you do with a sentimental heart?
I’m awfully sleepy right now. I went to a “Power Vinyasa *Music Intense” hot yoga class last night, which was great…but I also stayed up to three am doing work and playing pictionary not allowing my body to rest so now I’m really sleepy! And when I’m sleepy this song is just perfect to listen to.
I can’t get this song out of my head. Probably because I identify with it quite a bit these days. I think it would be fun to recreate and fashion editorial based on the concept of “Chasing Pirates” like in this lovely video/song by Norah Jones.
Styling would be similar to Keira Nightly in Pirates of the Caribbean.
Setting would be in an urban environment with pirate details (like in the video below).
I fear that I’ve become obsessed with pirates…Some more pirate-y things I’ve noticed:
I'm a friendly geek living in Seattle. I love love, passionate people, entrepreneurship, design, type, technology, the internet/web, funny movies, gold rush, travel, sexy stuff, sometimes fashion, crafts and many other things in between.
