Kaleidoscope of Light & Sound

Yesterday afternoon was clear and crisp, with a breezy sun and bright colors. The stillness and perfection of the world embraced me, as if reminding me that things will work out perfectly if only I work hard. So, I’m trying. I’m trying very hard to accomplish what I want.
It’s easy for me to fall into pessimism and churlish moods, so I need to work twice as hard as the next guy to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I am feeling very cliche today, but the way the sun brushes against my skin and the way the wind combs my hair seem unique, deja vu but unique. I’m almost eighteen, it’s time to sink or swim. i want to swim. it’s just a matter of making it happen.
I am so very busy, so removed sometimes, but special things keep my breathing light and my feet graceful. I would mention my floating feeling more in depth, but I don’t want to give away the treasure if I have the opportunity to keep it.

ANGELS LOSING SLEEP
OUR LADY PEACE

Looks like the holy ghost is gone
Now your afraid of yourself
Over your shoulder you have to watch
Heaven fall into hell
Looks like your boat’s about to sink
So it’s time to prepare
Even the angels are losing sleep
And the sidewalks are bare

It’s like the calm before the storm
You better swim
Just like it’s cold before it’s warm
You’ll get back here again
And I’ll wait I’ll wait I’ll wait I’ll wait
I’ll wait I’ll wait I’ll wait I’ll wait
I’ll wait I’ll wait till you fall from grace
It’s the calm before the storm
It’s there then it’s gone

Oh it looks like the war was in your head
Not your heart
Just when you think it’s figured out
Well it all falls apart

Looks like the holy ghost is gone
Looks like the holy ghost is gone
Looks like the war was in your head
Looks like the war was in your head
War was in your head

I’ll wait I’ll wait I’ll wait I’ll wait
I’ll wait I’ll wait I’ll wait I’ll wait
I’ll wait I’ll wait till you fall from grace
It’s the calm before the storm
