Songs/Love

Blog Last Activity 11 years ago 435 views 3 comments
Songs. Each day we hear them. They are everywhere. In our heads, our cars, our tvs, and radios. They make us cry, they make us laugh, and most importantly they make us feel good inside. Too many times, I hear songs, without really listening to them. Without actually grasping the emotions put in every letter and every single word. If you pay attention you can hear the sadness, the pain and every other emotion. You can hear the defiance, the power of a single voice. A song is never flawless, you can hear every note, every crack in a persons voice. Thats what makes it real.
Songs give you a glimpse into the troubles of the rest of the world. Close your eyes and listen. Listen with your heart, listen with your soul. Let the emotions wash over you. Let the words touch you. Let them into your head. I guess I had to hit rock bottom again to figure this out. But I am fine with it. I would hit rock bottom a million times, to learn a million lessons of life. I've tried so hard to fight with the problems in my life. I don't want to fight them anymore. Right now I can't afford to care about them. I'll push them out of my mind, because I will not let them control me. I'm taking my damn life back. I'm going to be happy,I'm going to hit the ground running and no one can stop me this time. I'm gonna flourish, I'm gonna laugh, I'm gonna sing, and I'm gonna scream for the whole world to hear. Yes, I am pouring my heart out into this blog. Yes, every word is full of emotion, and yes, I will do it again. I've done things that I'm not proud of, I have regrets just like any other person out there. I have dreams, I have hopes. Some might even say that I deserve every bad thing that I've been handed. I can't say that I agree or even disagree. I am the only person that can free my mind. Im still finding myself, I don't truly know who I am or who I want to be in life.
I have felt true love once in my life, not the kind of love that you give to family. The kind of love that makes you revolve around that person, the kind of love that brings tears to your eyes if you imagine leaving them. The kind of love that helps you finish each others sentences. A love that seems to good to be true. A love that keeps them on your mind at all hours of the day.
I don't know too much about what life has in store for me, but I do know one thing.
I want that kind of love, and I won't give up until I find it. -Danny

Danny....I cried....because your song touched me...as you have before....the past is the past....it informs the future...but you own your future...you define it...it is yours to take....ok...having a little trouble typing at the moment.....the love you are looking for is there...and it is looking for you as much as you are looking for it....and as my experience would say...it is something that you stumble upon...when it happens you know...because you see nothing else.....enjoy the journey....it will be there when it is supposed to be....and with the words you have written above....it can happen because you are open to it.....Hugs my friend.....Thomas xxooxxoo

hi Danny. I know exactly what you mean by the power of songs. There are some songs that bring tears to my eyes immediately.
When I was a boy, I used to laugh at my Dad for having tears in his eyes when watching really sad things on TV - now I know what he meant when he said "some day you'll find out why"
I love what you have written here and I completely understand what you mean by love and the ability to end each others sentences. I can feel that this is comming from the bottom of your heart and I want you to know that MY heart goes out to you my friend. Any time you want someone to be emotional with, feel free to PM me. I send you a big hug. Phil
