She got reasons why she can't say
She believes that she's not here to stay
Her exit will be coming soon
Hear the sadness in her tune
She's calling out to it...

The time that passes doesn't last
For her the days don't move too fast
The sun is not a schedule
She moves to that song of old
She's singing out to it...

I watch her play that old guitar
She's sitting in a place so far
Her voice it travels all the way
To place the moment in its day
She's reaching out to it...
If there was a chair in which I could comprehend, I would stand always and embrace the path

    it's kind of poignant......it makes me wonder about the way we see other people's situations......are we sometimes so distant as to be able to observe their plight, but not be able to help them
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......

    it turns out that life happens and we have remarkably little control over the things we take for granted

    that's why we should remember not to take things for granted......we have so little control over other things too.....but the glass is either half full or half empty.....(sometimes it changes from week to week too.....hehehehehe)

    day to day......and we're so small.....like yesterday I was on top of the world cos I had such a good time with my baby, but today I feel so shitty......we're jus some kind of pawns that are moved around the board......I'm a perfectionist......I want everything to be perfect......and I really expect that, but I get so disappointed, and I never learn.......but it's okay, cos I can handle it........how about you? can you handle this fukkin deal?

    these days I feel so much better, but I think comfort has deprived me of my survival skills somewhat, so when I say I will.......I'm never too sure right now whether I can (at the same time knowing that a mountain becomes a flat road in the face of my will).......I wonder......whether things have changed......whether I'm less able these days.........but really, I know the truth is that I am invincible.....(poem coming soon).......do you really feel like you've been tested yet Travers.......do you know what it's like for your whole world to go haywire on you.......?
