Nightly Confessions- Butterflies........Lots of Butterflies

Sometimes there are people who come and go in your life and they leave a huge impact. People you cannot get out of your head. Sometimes, for me, there are songs that linger in the air around me, get stuck in my head, touch me in a way that is unexplainable. This song for some reason hit a chord. I am not sure if its the music or the lyrics or the situation I was in when i heard it ( which is probably the case )but the title "Hurry up and Wait" to me just sounded like a huge contradiction but it describes my life at this exact moment. I feel like I am rushing to get things done, rushing to find the things I crave but I forget to wait for those things to come to me. I forget that I should not be in a hurry.

"Hurry Up And Wait"

we wait to wake to get a ride in the rain
buy a ticket they can check we can claim
so we don't spend what's our own for a
seat a place to stop a green light a red
cross they run around naked doing old
things like the ones before
wait for a break so you can take a little
something that'll make your next break
come along a little quicker than the one
before wait for an answer spy a sweet
dancer as she walks from the door of the
hall wish you waited for your wedding
vows so hurry up and wait
but what's worth waiting for?
we wait to get warm the car starts from
cold stall to make a first move magazines
made the rules to make us lose wait for
your dream man the house you could both
plan the car in the sales ad the wet dream
with the man you wished that you had
a watched pot never boils sugars seconds
to dissolve see your appetite lost foods
relevance is lost inside
so hurry up and wait
but what's worth waiting for?
so join the queue me and you
wait in line it takes our
time to be satisfied

I wish there were adequate words to explain my world right now. I am happy...wow....those words feel really strange to type...to think...to see as something I have written.


Butterflies.....Thats what you give me....Butterflies......
I met you but a week ago
And vowed to take it slow
But because of the way you make me feel
Im not quite sure how to deal
You open my eyes and make me feel alive
With you by my side I know I will survive
There may be an end to this intoxicating bliss
If our time comes your soul I will truly miss
So until that day I will cherish our time
And walk away with memories that will always be mine.


If I had to walk away and all I could take was my memory of this week....I would be satisfied for eternity.

-Thank you
