Slipping Away

I lived out this song. Although I thought I was unaffected at the time; I came out worse for the wear. And I am now paying the price for Loving you. Yet and still I’m trying to figure out if I can do it again. If we can do it again….

Slipping away, your love is, slipping away
For a while
What can I do to change your mind
Talk it back for me
Slipping away, your love is, slipping away
For a while
I see it in your eyes
And in your voice
Remember, the times we had
Before it all went south
And fell apart

Oh, slipping away, you love is slipping away from me
What can I do to change your mind
Talk it back for me late
Yeah, don’t you trip, yeah

Slipping away, your love, slipping away
What can I do to change your mind
Hide back from it lady,
Remember, the times we had
Oh the nights we’ve shared alone
All the life we showed for something
Something, something,
Oh don’t leave me alone,
Don’t leave me alone
I be missing you baby, ehe
Yeah baby, oh baby, don’t go
Oh baby don’t go, don’t go
Oh baby, oh, don’t go.

Night ride

There is a unique comfort in traveling in the blanket of the night sky with music as your companion. Ever since I was a youngin roaming the streets looking for a place to sleep. All I ever had was my backpack, my music and the moon’s glow. I’ve spent a ton of time alone (a heaping amount of that time by choice). I sometimes let my mind go crazy and destroy me. It’s a fatal flaw I have. It’s rare that I’m at ease. But traveling with the stars over my head calms my mind and soul. I start to focus my thoughts and organize in a much healthier way.

Last night I had another one of these nights. I was driving home from a friend’s house with musica in my ears and night covering me up (& my backpack in the passenger seat). It allowed me to collect some thoughts that had been eluding me. Issues far from dead but at least I got a better grasp. The times when I wasn’t organizing the files in my brain and heart? I was simply lost in the music. Which is dangerous when you don’t remember driving over the hill and then you’re going 70 headed to a red light. Haha. But fuxk it. I needed it. Badly.

I’m still learning to let go. There’s a few things I’m not quite ready to throw away. Might not ever be. But there’s a healthier way to store it within. I’ll get there. In due time. Time. It’s all we have, yet there’s never enough. C’est la vie.
