My Security Blanket

The streets are made of gold,
Here, were never going to feel old
and we dance in rain or shine.
I hold you close
Cause you are forever mine
In this heavenly place we call Home.
You gave me everything I need;
You payed the price and did the deed.
My breath has been taken away
And I wouldn't need it back,
But I want to only sing your name.
My feet won't hurt from dancing
And my eyes are wet from my happy tears,
And my darkest fears,
Have have run away scared.

Theres not a big enough number to record my joys
and NO blue-eyed boy
can give or take what I've got inside
Cause I'm secure,
And it wasn't hard to find :)

another one. it was my best friends birthday yesterday, she turned 16 and i adore her so much. were like two peas in a pod :P i havent written in almost a week and it felt good to sit in bed before i actually went to sleep and have a blank a sheet of paper and pen.

My Summer Nights :)

We went out to explore
On this cool summer night,
Just you and I.
How did we miss the sunrise?
We were too distracted with each others eyes.
I have to admit, I was feeling kinda crazy.
I knew I was the one you adored,
And you were the one I fell for
In this cool summer night.
And you just could have might
Stolen a kiss,
Straight from my lips;
But there will be plenty of time
Cause you know that I will stick by your side.
Did you feel my heart soar
Straight through the clouds?
Out in the fields;
We can't say goodbye
And let our hearts run dry.
I'm loving to hear,
You call me 'my dear'.
The sky passes by,
Knowing there's more time
And another wonderful cool
Summer Night.

i had to write before i went to bed...
i was so inspired by this amazing singer/song writer-- David Cook (not the guy who one american idol, different guy) Hes also the lead singer of one of the greatest bands 'My Favorite Highway'. Dave recently just put out some songs and i cant stop listening to them. 'Perfect of Something' inspired me with this one; even though what i wrote is no way even comparable to his amazing lyrics. haha im actually listening to that song right now and i just want to swim in the melody. haha not thats physically possible.

Listen while Reading. David Lanz - 'Painting the Sun'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-E5TSvNu0Ek

Tonight he had His first cigarette,
And her middle name was Nicolette.
Together they sang 'til their lungs could have burst;
To only catch that one breath
They laid in the dew covered grass.
Dirt and grass stains on their backs, hair a ratty mess,
They watched the dawn break like a piece of glass.
Then their breath became visible in the orange colored light.
Feeling the dirt underneath their fingertips,
With their toes so cold and off-white
Some how they knew that everything would be alright.

That night, we could hear the world spin;
Just us two.
That was it.
That's all we really knew
Him and I, the grass and the dew.

Just finished writing this about a couple of minutes ago.
This morning i made strawberry ice cream with all the windows open and then sun gliding in.
I played some of my favoirte music by Dustin O'halloran, he composes music so beautifully and plays the piano so elegantly. I also really love Davids Lanz's piece - 'Painting the Sun'.
It was a relaxing morning.
These writings are from no personal experience, though i wish they were. My imagination is my greatest strength, and thats real reason i can dream, wish, and write decent.
