Learning....

...the final stage of my lesson is over... and I gave too much to learn it... too long and too vivid... too much of myself... now the resignation phase... when I tell myself I'll never feel again... I'll never hope or trust... this is for the best... were you ever worthy of me...

Words....

I put these words here because I can't say them to the one they are meant for...

I can't say how I feel because my heart keeps the words locked inside it...
I can't even put these words here because I'm too afraid to see them in front of my eyes...
If I write them, then I could say them...
If I say them, I could not retrieve them...
But maybe the words are already in my eyes...

...lyrics from "Smooth Operator" by Sade...

"Wilest Dreams"- Brandy

Source Unknown

Out of an unknown place
Kinda like left field
You came in my life and helped me heal
Just in the nick of time
When I lacked the will to keep on moving on
You've been in my dreams, but from now
Couldn't figure out the reasons
I kept asking God why
And now I'm receiving abundance of love
And I get it,
But never could imagine it

Never in my wildest dreams, no, no, no
Did I think someone could care about me, oh
Not just the way you love me
You know I'm emotional (sometimes)
Not in, not in, not in, not in my wildest dreams
Never in my wildest dreams (never in my life)
Did I think someone could care about me
(It's so beautiful)
Not just the way you love me
You know I'm emotional (sometimes)
Not in, not in, not in, my wildest dreams
Never, never, oh, never hey
Never, never, oh, never hey
Never, never, oh, never hey

It's hard to hold back tears,
Whenever you hold me close
I think about the years I spent saying this is all I want
Just wanted someone real to love me for me, me
Just Brandy
It seemed I had it all, that's what they thought
But I was peeling like paint on the wall
Had to cover up the hurt (hurt, hurt)
Uh, I was told by many, that they loved me
But it wasn't love like this

Never in my wildest dreams,
(Never in my wildest dreams)
Did I think someone could care about me, oh
(So beautiful)
Not just the way you love me
You know I'm emotional sometimes
(So emotional)
Not in, not in, not in, not in my wildest dreams
Never in my wildest dreams,
(Couldn't have came in a better time)
Did I think someone could care about me
(Not the way that you do)
Not just the way you love me
You know I'm emotional sometimes

I'll give all I have, for exchange
To have someone who love me for me
(Anything can be replaced)
Not love
There ain't no replacement, it either is or it ain't

Never in my wildest dreams,
(Never in my life, no)
Did I think someone could care about me, oh
(So beautiful)
Not just the way you love me
You know I'm emotional sometimes
(You know how I get)
Not in, not in, not in, not in my wildest dreams
Never in my wildest dreams, never in my life
Did I think someone could care about me
Not just the way you love me
(It's not just the way you love me)
You know I'm emotional sometimes
Not in, not in, not in, my wildest dreams

"When I Saw You"- Mariah Carey

iheartradio

Soft heavenly eyes gazed into me
Transcending space and time
And I was rendered still
There were no words for me to find at all
As I stood there beside myself
I could see you and no one else


When I saw you
When I saw you
I could not breathe
I fell so deep
When I saw you
When I saw you
I'd never be
I'd never be the same

Only once in a lifetime love rushes in
Changing you with the tide
And dawn's ribbon of light
Bursts through the dark
Wakening you inside
And I thought it was all untrue
Until there all at once I knew

When I saw you
When I saw you
I could not breathe
I fell so deep
When I saw you
When I saw you
I'd never be
I'd never be the same


With no beginning and
Without an end
You are the one for me
And it's evident
And your eyes told me so
And your eyes let me know...

When I saw you
When I saw you
I could not breathe
I fell so deep
When I saw you
When I saw you
I'd never be
I'd never be the same

...lyrics written by Walter Afanasieff and Mariah Carey...
