Love....

As I write I remember what love felt like. I remember what the world around me felt like when I wasn't surrounded by thoughts of war and hate. I remember why I loved. I remember why I teach, and I feel like I am just holding on to ideas that are not important any more. I can't hide from Bush's stupidity-Home Land Defense- sounds like something I watched when I lived in Germany. Something I watched as child that was awful and horrifying. It was Hitler speeches that he had given in the towns I visited. I was a military brat if you will and we went to school in a former SS Headquarters building. We were told of the awful things so we wouldn't forget where we were and what happened before we existed. I listened to Bush tonight and all I wanted to do was cry. Yes what happened to our Nation is horrid, but it just hurt to hear things that sounded similar to those speeches of the past.

How I feel sometimes......

Lyrics - A Question Of Lust

Fragile
Like a baby in your arms
Be gentle with me
I'd never willingly
Do you harm


Apologies
Are all you ever seem to get from me
But just like a child
You make me smile
When you care for me
And you know...


It's a question of lust
It's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together


Independence
Is still important for us though (we realise)
It's easy to make
The stupid mistake
Of letting go (do you know what I mean)


My weakness
You know each and every one (it frightens me)
But I need to drink
More than you seem to think
Before I'm anyone's
And you know...


It's a question of lust
It's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together


Kiss me goodbye
When I'm on my own
But you know that I'd
Rather be home


It's a question of lust
It's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together

Song from the past....

This song seems fitting at the moment. I used to listen to it and thought it was beautiful . Now I think of what will be coming and I just want to cry.
Good night my friends.....

FOREVER YOUNG
let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
hoping for the best but expecting the worst
are you going to drop the bomb or not?
let us die young or let us live forever
we don't have the power but we never say never
sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
the music's for the sad men
can you imagine when this race is won
turn our golden faces into the sun
praising our leaders we're getting in tune
the music's played by the madmen
forever young, i want to be forever young
do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
some are like water, some are like the heat
some are a melody and some are the beat
sooner or later they all will be gone
why don't they stay young
it's so hard to get old without a cause
i don't want to perish like a fading horse
youth is like diamonds in the sun
and dimonds are forever
so many adventures couldn't happen today
so many songs we forgot to play
so many dreams are swinging out of the blue
we let them come true
