    I am important 
    I am fortunate 
    I am grateful 
    I am fucked up
    I am 
    In love

    Sometimes
    It's like heaven, a swirling and twirling around my head, that slowly makes it's way throughout and I swear I can feel your weight.

    Sometimes 
    It's like when I'm having a conversation with a friend and I look up and realize they've left the room.

    My Symphony
    By William Ellory Canning

    To live content with small means
    To seek elegance rather than luxury 
    and refinement rather than fashion
    To be worthy not respectable 
    and wealthy not rich
    To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly
    To listen to stars, birds, babes and sages
    with open heart
    To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely,
    await occasions, hurry never
    In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden, and
    unconscious grow up through the common
    This is to be my Symphony 


    If you notice, the word love is not included
    Perhaps it was written 
    about love

    When your life's work is over
    and the story is at it's end
    You'll remember all the time given
    the hours, the days, the nights
    the years
    the years
    the years
    Filled with obligations, successes, heartaches
    revelations and perhaps, misplaced love

    Now, a new story begins
    And the love you gave to your life's work 
    is perhaps, lying in the bed next to you

    Any work left behind 
    will find it's own way
