"How frail the human heart must be-a mirrored pool of thought." ~Sylvia Plath


This is one of my favorite songs. I was listening to it this morning, and decided that I wanted to share it with you. Isn't it strange how the songs of someone you have never known can describe your life perfectly?

Well I guess this is where I left my life
And all its operations
And I know that I will never get this twice
With all negotiations

This feels like the place between what is and might have been
So I guess this is where we both find out
If this is meant to be

And I'll tell myself, I don't need you
I'll tell myself enough to get me through
But I'll finally show you how I should have been being with you every day
If you can take a little more

Now it takes me back to times on Lincoln Avenue
When you said you'd never get tired of the boy
That seemed to be so far from growing up
But we were different then

This feels like the place between being ready and being in the way

And I'll tell myself, I don't need you
I'll tell myself enough to get me through
But I'll finally show you how I should have been being with you every day
If you can wait a little more

This feels like the time that I'm ready for you
Are you ready for me

'Cause I'll tell myself I'll make it through
I'll tell myself anything to get over you
And I won't blame you but I'm finally ready to show you
That I'm ready to show you, I'm ready to show you
I'll tell myself that I never needed anybody anyway, but anyway
I need you
I need you now
I need you now
I'm ready now

~Lincoln Avenue, Train


Life sure is weird. I only have a week and a half left of school and there seems to be so much that I have to do. So much. Sometimes I can't sleep at night because I'm worrying over everything that has to be done, not to mention I'm not doing so well emotionally right now. I'm so confused and worried. So much to be done, there's no time for emotions. Ugh.

Wow, it's only 10:10, and I am bored out of my mind. I guess I could sing with the treble choir. I think I might in a minute, because I don't have any homework to do and don't have much else to say. I don't know. Anyway, I wish you all the best of luck. I'm leaving in three weeks. How strange. So love to all. Shalom
