ach that strange rhythm,
when the world swirls and falls and your heart beats so loud you think it will break.
when each breath expands your chest but not your lungs.
dizzy and silly and scared and happy.
everything echos across the wood floor and time trickles slower.
mirrors and mirrors but we don't see ourselves...
the other's speck still blinds us.
the eyes daze and blur, but the hands--
strangely the hands have no need to rationalize..
the hands can remember that feeling even two hundred years from now.

oh Lord,
be my firm foundation.
transience
noun
the state or fact of lasting only for a short time; transitory nature.
i.e. "the transience of life and happiness"
summer showers/seasons/feelings/breath and existence... all are subject to change, and have no guarantee as to their length.
the grass withereth, the flower fadeth, but God your Word shall stand for ever.

two
types of smiles.
there is one that tilts the corners of your lips up & there is the one that reaches up into your eyes.
i like that one. :)

In the words of
the sometimes simplistically elegant jack johnson,
"lovin' someone... don't make them love you"
i should know, i've been on both sides of the coin a few too many times than i care to remember.
oh God, remember those prayers consisting solely of the words "lord, make him love me" chanted over and over?! yeah, i'm not proud of it. teenage desperation, what can i say. (would you like some over-easy eggs with that rare honesty?) .... hey, at least i admit it.
anyways, women get the notorious bad (w)rap for this, {though we alllll do it}, we basically want what we can't have.
maybe it traces back to the garden of eden, or was it when the notebook came out?~ who knows. but i've also blocked enough numbers of real-life stalker dudes to know that it is by no means a female-exclusive issue.
it's been my experience in relationships (heck, even in friendships too), that there is always one person of the two that cares a little less than the other.
yeah i'll be the 7 billionth person to commiserate right with you:
"one-sided relationships.. suck"
so don't be in one.
that's right, you heard me right~
you do have a choice in the matter don't you?
don't waste your time on something you know is one-sided. here's a bright idea~ just be excellent to each other. and that's it. all those unrealistic expectations for that other person? throw 'em right out the window. giving to get is not any kind of real love.
it's amazing what a freeing feeling that is to quit trying to play God and conniving your way into a relationship with someone that wasn't meant to be. plus, it seems like a pretty widely accepted fact that it's all around just 'better' to not be delusional.
i mean, follow my example if nothing else~ me and david beckham have somehow managed to stay pretty amicable throughout the years.... even though i told him he's too old for me and i don't even like sports.
