As You Are, I Am


Empathy in all its entirety is something that I've rarely ever found.
To be able to catch a meaning, a thought or even a feeling in the instant
it's put out there is something that I rarely am able to do.
When you get it, really get what someone is thinking,
saying or feeling, you just know it and so do they.
I wish I could catch everything as it falls, but I'm not as fast or as kind as I'd like to be.

"Even if its pain that I feel, at least I know that it's real, I'd rather be broken than afraid..." - Lifehouse

------------------------------------------------------------------

As you are, I am
Where you lay, I am in spirit and mind
Never mind all the faults and cracks of our bond
It’s okay to think of me when you need somebody
Likewise I can not stop myself from remembering you as you were when I was still there
Close enough to take in the warmth of your air
I’ve thought and I’m still thinking of all the ways you make me better
Feel better, look better, and even love better too
It’s funny how often I end up tracing along the shape that you take in all of my fantasies
Losing myself in your every line and curve
It’s amazing how real you feel even though I’ve never known you that way
Not even once has our touch been sexual
So how is it that I feel as though I’ve experienced you in such an extraordinary way?
Maybe our embraces were more than we knew them to be?
Or maybe I just didn’t see things that way

We thought we had everybody fooled, but they could see it clearly
The tension between us – Coming from both directions
Washing over us, cutting through the safe shade of our denial
So don’t go on thinking that you’re the only one
If I could feel as you felt at every moment, I would
But I don’t always know what is going on in your head and heart
Because I’m always trying to find myself in approval
Predictable, I know - I’ve already been this, already done that
Every action another retraction refraining from being true to you
I hide behind all these walls till I’ve broken them down
But in the breaking, I lost something this time
Oh blessed ignorance of mine – Always causing me to be misunderstood
I’m trying to find my way
But I haven’t got it all figured out quite yet

There’s nothing wrong with being wrong
And there’s nothing wrong with losing
I am lost – In you there is no clear destination
No end in sight to the things that attract and repel me
In a way you and I are everything that I’ve ever known
I can’t seem to find an instance that does not revolve around you somehow
Even outside this miserable life of mine, it’s as if you are my life
You feel me burning up in the heat of this separation
Try as I might, I can’t seem to see past the things I’ve done
Whenever I think I’m not the one
I don’t see another one to blame under the sun
And in the light of the night I still can’t see anyone else worth watching over

As you are, I am completely incomplete
Standing, falling everywhere in between
How could I not feel the same as you?
As you, I’ve felt the same
I’ve refused to feel anything
Refused to accept
Refused to look back as you looked on
I have felt the same, just not always at the exact same moment as you

Come one, come all my love
Not one by one, or drop by drop – Flood our systems entirely
Drenched in the raw flow of our growing love moving through
I know that there’s no other way
It’s all or nothing now
So hurry up and take your time coming in and out of my life
You always stick around long enough to leave me longing
So go on and leave the way you came
Just make sure that you take me with you this time
Take my security from me

Moment's Notice


I've been thinking...
I thought that my biggest regret in life (so far) would have softened it's impact
on me by now, and maybe it has, but I don't really want it to.
Looking back at all of the things I did or didn't do isn't something that I should shy away from.
I don't want to make the same mistakes again, so I play them over and over again almost everyday.
Maybe some day I'll get it.

"I'm never speaking again..." - Mr. GQ

--------------------------------------------------------------------

From the beginning you’ve been making your way into my skin
But starting from the outside was not the safest way to begin
Maybe you should have started from the heart and found your way back out
Our hearts have become so tired of hiding and yet we’re still covering up
Do we even know what we’re fighting for?
We’ve been waiting for something - A sign
The signs go on and on, yet we’re still lingering
Hanging on to things that should be gone
We can’t figure out which moves to make

Let's take a minute to make a moment
I can't remember how I ever forgot your name
But I just can't forget the look on your face whenever you would look my way
But you can’t return this breath that you’ve taken
And I wouldn’t want you to
You can keep all my air even though I’m not close to you
It’s just unfair no matter how I look at it
You were my first love – A technicality
You were and will always be ahead of me

Let it be known that we were here
The mystery of our history belongs to a day so far from here
As time moves on so do we
Let it be known that what we are and where we've been
Is something that only time can bring
I just wish I knew where you were, so we could start again
But I don’t want to waste your precious time
Walking back to point of origin
Time and time again I’ve found
That nothing holds me quite as tight as your words
That binds and finds a way into my skin

Kenna Pushed Back Yet Again!!


Kenna's CD "Make Sure They See My Face" was supposed to be released today, but it was pushed back yet again.
Maybe it's a good thing since he won't have to deal with this whole Kanye vs. 50 Cent sales scrap.
I wasn't even gonna buy their cd's since I was so hyped for Kenna. So 10.16.07 is the new and FINAL release date.
I HOPE....

Silence Breaks (Assurance Awakens)


The first step to stepping outside yourself is the same as the last, taking a step.
You know when a chance to go for something is in front of you because everything seems crazy for a minute
as your heart reacts to the situation at hand.

"I'd rather regret something I did, instead of something I didn't do.
Some chances only come once in a lifetime."
- Mr. GQ

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You live in another tense
You don’t want to stay yet you have no intention of leaving
Waiting for the noise to stop
It seems that the silence is slow to come
Everything can’t go your way
Everything won’t come to you
Feed your mind with anything that could mean something more
With no idea of what all this is supposed to mean
You find yourself standing waiting for something to happen
Of this much I am certain
Moving nowhere is better than staying nowhere
So move forward or in whatever direction gets you closer

Sometimes you don’t know why you look the way you do
There’s nothing wrong and yet nothing feels quite right tonight
Without the sense of belonging all these titles mean very little
Like the Wiseman playing the fool
There’s something about knowing that you’ve lost this one
And trying to fight the feeling anyway
Sometimes you must let things run their course

You’ve come a long way
When you’re not afraid to break a smile without reason
Go ahead and let the feeling linger a little longer
There’s nothing wrong with feeling alive
Inside of you is something more than you’re ready for
Of this much I am sure
The best is still yet to come

Did you know how far your feelings would get you?
There’s only so much distance you can cover with your words
When you come to your senses everything won’t seem so far
When you’re ready to try something new, take a breath
You’re about to do something you’ve never done before
So look within yourself before you look around
Before you wake up make sure you’re ready to take up your arms
The best is still yet to come – So reach out and pull it in
The change you bring is something that you can never predict
Just like the falling of stars
There’s nothing that can hide it
When assurance awakens within, it can be seen from afar
Sometimes you’ve got to bring yourself to the brink of being wide open
Nothing feels better

Growing


We always try to look out for children and show them things.
Yet in their simplicity, somehow they show us something that we forgot
or maybe never knew to begin with.

"Who says that children don't have something to teach us?" - Mr. GQ

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I want to carry you everywhere I go
So that you can know what I've been through
See with your own eyes the world that we live in
Just cus you're with me doesn't meant that we'll see it all the same
But that's the point
You don't have to agree with everything
Nothing is what it seems
For anyone anything can become everything
But everything becomes nothing when there's no one to share it with

Isn't it obvious?
We need to see this, we need to know
We're so oblivious to what's in front of us
Have faith in your heart so that when you see with your eyes
You won't be blind to the winds in the skies or the intent in our eyes
Don't be shy, take in what you can
Get the most out of everything
And do it as only you can

I've learned so much from you
You're so small, yet so tall in your wonder of it all
I look up to you as you look up at me
You're so pure and it's so clear as I peer into your eyes
Don't ever change as you grow, I know I'm asking for too much
But I don't want you to lose your innocence
When you don't know any better
You can break all of the rules, cus you never knew them
And they never knew you like they know me now
So take all the risks, try till you cry
Fall and fail until you touch the sky
It's all for living; it's a part of life
Life is for learning
Love is for growing
And knowing is half of the battle
This has been very educational

Thought Trail


Half of the time I don't know whether I'm chasing after you or the memory of you.
Lingering thoughts always find a way to distract me to no end.
I argue and struggle with the path my thoughts take me along.

"My thoughts aren't always as clear as I'd like them to be." - Mr. GQ

--------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------

As my thoughts run off with me
I can't help but recall the numerous numbers of times I've been a slave to my thoughts
Breathe out another thought
Breathe in new waves of thinking
The day always hides behind the night
As words leave me I fail to feel their glow
If I can't see the light in my words than how can anyone else?
To be set free - When freedom is something worth wanting
To be blind - When being blind to the things in front of you is a blessing in disguise
Oh to be alright with the unsettling quiet of the night

I can't keep myself to myself, so I find someone else
I like to hear vocalized views trailing off
Leaving wonderment and joy in their wake
Rarely do I bother to stop and take in the situation at hand
Just being in the moment is all that’s required
I'll say hello to the future when I get there
But for now I'll take my time saying goodbye to the past
I can't deny that I've surrounded myself with layers of deja vu
In hopes that I won't forget you
So what if we never speak again, haven't we already said enough?
I've already said too much

Like always I do the things that I'm not supposed to do
I let you go when I'm supposed to hold on to you
Contradictory statements constantly seduce me
So forgive me in advance
I love leaving you longing
Did you get a look at your future with me?

It's no secret that I'm lost
I always go on my own and let myself get rescued by the enemy within
And yet I dare to wonder why I can't trust myself with you
When it’s all said and done, it’s the night that has won me over
Find me in that moment that time forgot
As I walk down - I calm down
My thoughts trail off when I try to walk after you
So walk away - Carry on as my thoughts trail off

The Right Time Is Never On Time


From where we are the past and future alike seems a million miles away.
What is down won't always remain that way.

"We move through time in one direction, sad but it's the truth." - Darren Hayes

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


We just want to move forward past the present future
As time goes on so do we
Let it be known that we were here
before the fog of yesteryear came and made things so unclear
I won't let that get me down
Sure I might be late
Sure I've fallen but I can't stay here
I can't wait for another day, another try

I’ve never been one to want something more than I could handle
But contentment has its faults
Never wanting something more eventually becomes a bore
I've got to overstep these boundaries if I want to get anywhere
I want something that I can't buy in any store
You can't put a price tag on your name
For what it’s worth life's worth its gain

I can't keep myself to myself; I've got to find someone else
Who sees what I can't see in myself
This isn't the same person that you left behind
You'll see that as I pass by you
I'm just trying to get back to what really matters
I can't stand not knowing where I am
But all these maps and directions won't get me to where I want to be
Standing, walking, running towards what I’m after
Speed isn’t an issue, I'll take it slow
One step at time, I'll be there soon someday

With all that I've been through I know that I've still got a long way to go
Sure I might not make it when you want me there
But I will reach there somehow someday
I’ll be there when I’m there
Don't count me out, I've barely just begun
Throw away the clocks
The right time is never on time
