Returning

   It has been many years since I last wrote. Life gets in the way. One's self gets in the way. It does not have to be only physically getting in the way of things, it is also mentally and emotionally getting in the way of things.

  I have recently discovered that I am on a journey that I never knew I was on. I could say that my head was in the clouds or that I was just not paying attention or that I was selfish and focused. I could even say that everything was/ is normal. I don't know, maybe for me it was normal. No, there is no maybe. For me the life that I have known is normal.

   I have been struggling with both emotional and mental anguish. I have hid things in fluff and shallowness. Never thinking that there was anything wrong with me and my situation. In the end I am wrong to have thought that. 

  I never wanted what others wanted out of life. I don't even think I ever really wanted love because I don't know how to love myself let alone anyone else. Sometimes I don't know if I want to. I don't hate myself but I'm not to overly fond of myself, either. 

   I'm scared. I'm going to be getting help with my scattered thoughts and emotions that I may have. This is part of my journey, that I am finally being honest with myself, that I need. Desperately. The darkness and greyness that has been me is being addressed and faced and I really don't know if I can handle it or B. S. everything. I don't want to B. S. any of it and if I do it will be out of fear.

  I know that I am not that smart. That nothing has really held my interest, except for the occasional writing and reading. I miss reading. That's something else I need to fix. Reading is easier fix than fixing one's self.

  So with this said and a lot more left unsaid, let me begin taking baby steps on this part of my life. 

  At least I got this wrote before my cat decided to get in my face

Journey-Dont Stop Believing

For James Gandolfini who sadly and shockingly died today. A fine actor who when he appeared on screen or stage you just had to stop and watch him and he made you forget about the other actors. He made his name as Tony Soprano and he will always be Tony Soprano in our hearts. You are sadly missed, James Gandolfini



 


Don't Stop Believing 

Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train going anywhere

Just a city boy
Born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere

A smoker in a smokey room 
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share a night
It goes on and on and on


Strangers waitng
Up and down the boulevard 
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somewhere in the night

Working hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time

Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh the movie never ends 
It just goes on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people
Living just to find emotion
Hiding somwhere in the night

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streelight people

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight peple
