Come What May.....

Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I Love You more and more

Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I Love You, until the end of time

Come what may
Come what may
I will Love You
Until my dying day

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you

And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song,
I'll be there by your side

Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I Love You, I Love You,
Until the end of time

Oh, come what may, come what may
I will Love You, until my dying day
Oh come what may, come what may
I will Love You, I will Love You

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place

Come what may
Come what may
I will Love You
Until my dying day

I was sitting in Kara's car as she was driving home from the movie theatre tonight and we were listening to the Moulin Rouge cd and chatting about how awesome the movie and the costumes were and how phenomenal the music was when this song came on. Instantly my eyes filled with tears and as i tried my damdest to think about dirty laundry the lyrics invaded my heart, my soul and infiltrated my wall. Why am I only now realizing the things that should have been obvious to me weeks ago? Why am I so terrified of the things I have craved for so long? Years ago i had dreamed about those fairytale men you only read about in trashy romance novels, the passion and the hunger that one man can have for a woman. How you can see it in his eyes that he only wants you, cannot get enough of you, but somewhere along the way I became very cynical, hardened to that image. How have I lost all those hopes and dreams for myself...how at 21 years old can i be satisfied with a life alone? What is wrong with me? Why am i fighting so hard against something that deep down, somewhere in the midst of all this cynicism, i want more than life itself. I dont understand....I suppose maybe I am like a turtle hiding inside this strong, safe shell i carry around. Only protected when closed off from the rest of the world, escaping from the beauty, the honesty and the love all around you. Hardening to the fact that the only way i am protected is inside my shell. It is only now, feeling this loss so deeply that I can see how that shell is not protecting me rather it is harboring me, imprisoning me inside. Can a turtle live without its shell or is it forced to drag it wherever it goes? Is it ever able to be free, to see the world free from fear? Unfortunetly I fear not....its a package deal. I refues to accept this, I cannot be trapped for the rest of my life in this facade, this life and future I have created for myself....I want to feel the sun on my face, I do not want to hide in the shadows. I want to feel love and give love and be happy, be safe, FREE!

I want to vanish inside your kiss.....
