Swift Inspiration

//my wavelength, recently, in a song.

SAFE AND SOUND
I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, "I'll never let you go"
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound

Don't you dare look out your window, darling,
Everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lullaby
Even when music's gone
Gone

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound.

Venti-sized Afternoon

This kept me away from certain distractions. One being, ASDFGHJKLqwertyuiopzxcvbnm,./; about pursuing photography.



Also, I deserve this. For all the things I accomplished last week and today [as a programmer nerd]. And bec this marks a temporary, two months to be exact, break up with coffee [which is related to tomorrow, being the start of my General Motors Weight Loss Program]; the last cup until the next one I'm having on September first or whenever.


//But now that that's empty, [I'm thankful for] Sel G., Birdy, and Panic screaming through my fears and insecurities.

Feelings Recently, In Photos

I am unaware of how I'm feeling recently, until sitting down with these photos.

To define myself currently, would include a blanket of comfort coming from my set of everyday people. Happy and warm. But to be honest, there are times I feel afraid, almost losing it, that I crave for nothing but to feel safe. They are what glue me sturdy on ground when I'm shaking. What keep me sane. My human beings.

It's not pretense. I am no doubt deeply in love with these beautiful creatures, and I am extremely grateful. But in between seconds of joy, and almost feeling content, I carry an ache in my heart. Hurting for a love [and relationship] lost, being incomplete, for missing out on hugs and kisses, and for 'I love you's that are nearly gone.


*****************************************
So here are three sets showing, ironically, joy, content, and unhappiness.

Of rainy season and buses, late night walks, silent conversations, and holding hands.

Of hot days, escaping tall buildings, and hazy memories

Of mornings, comfort, and soul

Of traveling, getting lost, and breathing free.
