So it’s not hard to fall when you float like a cannon

My heart is racing and I don’t even know what to do with myself. There are two sides of my emotions and both of them are beaming but by the way I am just trying to stay calm really shows me how far I have come. It’s an energy that makes me want to run around in circles. Though the realist in me stops any celebrations until I knoiw that she is free.

After a long walk in the woods, I couldn’t be smiling more and I hardly even questioned if I failed once again because she has a way of telling me that I haven’t – though, there is a deep level of regret that I didn’t trust how I felt and wrote it off so many times before.

I don’t feel comfortable writing any meaningful words on here so I will add a handful of songs and then I’ll go and find some secure way to write down cherished memories.

In February 2022, days before the Russian and Ukrain war broke out, I hear Chris Cornell’s version of Nothing Compares to You. At the time I saw it called a Prince cover. Before that day, I did not realize that Sinéad O’Connor’s version was a cover. Now that all of the above have passed, I am going to see how Pink sounds covering it. Clearly all the lines are not applicable but I sure do enjoy a few of them. I cut and paste my pop songs the way that I like the best.

Driving away was so very hard today. I trust in the future completely and I get less afraid personally every day – globally, I can not say the same.

The taste of love is sweet when hearts like ours meet

Last night, I had a dream that we drove a van Uhaul off into a “Ring of Fire” eclipse.

I had been telling her that it was called the Ring of Fire Eclipse and that I was going to call it the Johnny Cash Eclipse.

When I went to go leave for work 30 minutes later than I normally would, I started my car to find this song playing. I got the cheesiest grin on my face suddenly.

She recently told me that she had a dream that we bought a house in the town that we recently met up in. My heart went wild just hearing that. I haven’t seen her since but I have been fightingh terribly.

And I will need to come back to another cover to this song – it get’s me everytime.

But if you decide to, I’ll ride in this life with you

I am not really into new music but when I saw a kid sing this on American Idle, I felt that it was good for today. As a kid, mother’s day brought me so much pain – even though my mom was alive and my grandmother was doing everything that she could to fill the gaps.

Here’s the kid just to complete the story.

Won’t you please come around 

Today, I heard this classic on the 90’s on 9 and it was just what I needed. Not my typical genre of choice but it was for the last few years of that decade. Middle school dances were will with R&B.

It reminded me of the time that I was sitting at the light by Palmer’s (was heading West for record purposes) and The Cardigan’s Lovefool came on. You can bet I raced to message her and tell her all about it.

Then maybe you would understand

As I was returning from lunch yesterday, I glanced at my phone and saw a photo of herself that she had posted. Just seeing her picture made me extremely shy and smile. I put it away and continued to day dream about her. Many hours later, once home, I look at it again because I miss her so very much. I notice a fine detail and zoom in. Its a fine detail that I have caused a few emotional scenes over, so I think its something she would expect from me. My heart started racing and I had to look again – maybe a few times. Then I wrote her a quick excited message that I would later delete and then repeat a few times.

Things had felt weird in my heart but maybe it was because she was pushing through some heavy shit. My dream reminded me that I really need to watch my own excitement and consider her deepest feelings. I am working on centering my self, so that I can be the strongest person for her. I just hope that she is doing well deep in her heart, I worry so very much about that woman.
