I'd bet you have no idea. I'd bet you have no idea.

I'd bet you know not.

I bet I couldn't trot
too far away.

"I miss you so, seems like it's been forever..."

a line in a song is like an emotional rope

which pulls you in forever



"Tell you I'm sorry...you don't know how lovely you are."

A few words and poof...gone. Completely...confused in the conundrum of life.



"Let me in, unlock the door, I've never felt this way before"

I would wait, for the least you'd give me, and more.



"You twist to fit the mold that I am in"

If we could lay, skin to skin?

What you don't know could fill...a pin head. maybe.

Secrets are kept, secrets are made, secrets make friendships fade...



So what to do? My mind is so utterly confused...my body tired of waiting.




Jump from one to the other. The other to the one. Circles? Yes.




And they are making me dizzy.

such is the power of a Long Song

You can sit in a room with other people around. You can sit in a room with the lights on, ready to do homework, computer at the ready. You can sit there...and put your headphones on and listen to a song that will envoke the most powerful emotions. No other medium has that effect on the psyche of a human. It comes so quickly, making my mood change like the colors of a rainbow. Listen to a song to remind yourself that you are alive, to remind yourself that you are in love, to remind yourself that you are a human being with flaws, and most of all, listen to a song to remind yourself that you are not alone in what you are feeling.

There are those times, though, when a song will take you by surprise. It snuck into your playlist, you accidently hit play instead of next...but once it starts, you don't want it to stop. There are those songs that will forever be a part of my emotional being. There are those songs that make you want to burst out in tears, make you laugh outloud, make you feel like shit. I can close my eyes and for less than five minutes, be complety engulfed in a whirlwind of ecstacy--without the drug.

For a few minutes, you can be anyone you want, and have anyone you want. You can grab life by the horns, and know that your dreams are a reality (misguided as it may be). And for a few minutes, you are invincible, indistructable to the hurt of everyday life.

Or you can become powerless, a liquid mass of mush, ready for nothing, having nothing, being nothing.

That is the power of a tremendously captivating illuminated song.
Such is the power of a love song.
