Picture with a Story


Not my words, so I will turn it into a SWS
"Because every picture has a story"

Closure...

"Jar Of Hearts"

I know I can't take one more step towards you
Cause all that's waiting is regret
Don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting a jar of hearts
Tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

Ive learned to live, half alive
And now you want me one more time

Who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting a jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

It took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

Who do you think you are?
Running around leaving scars
Collecting a jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

"Stepping Stone... that is my job"




This song was once gifted to me, and now, I find myself on the other end of this song...

Near to You by Fine Frenzy

She and I had something beautiful

But so dysfunctional, it couldn't last
Loved her so but I let her go
Cause I knew she'd never love me back
Such pain as this Shouldn't have to be experienced
I'm still reeling from the loss
Still a little bit delirious, yeah
Near to you,
I am healing
But it is taking so long
Cause though she's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yeah, I'm better near to you
Well, you and I,
it's something different

And I'm enjoying it cautiously
I'm battle scarred,
I am working oh so hard

To get back to who I used to be
She's disappearing Fading steadily
When I'm so close to being yours
Won't you stay with me please?
Cause near to you,
I am healing
But it is taking so long
Cause though she's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yet I'm better near to you
Yeah, I'm better near to you
I only know that I am better where you are
I only know that I am better where you are
I only know that I belong where you are
Near to you, I am healing But it's taking so long
Though she's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Near to you,
I am healing
But it's taking so long
Cause though she's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yeah, I'm better near to you
Yeah, I'm better near to you

Before The Morning by Josh Wilson



These words are very close to my heart. My wonderful cousin, Kimmy, has been telling me this, in so many words, for the past 3 years. I think I can finally "FEEL" it. I have always believed her, but the struggles have very long and hard, and I would have times of despair. She would continue remind me of this, and it would get me through those rough times. Well, cousin... I am finally feeling, "It (was) just the dark before the morning. Thank you for your prayers, love & wisdom, cousin. I love you so ♥ ...this will definitely be a "repeat button" song for me for a bit



Kimmy, your wisdom and faith has been & will continue lift me up. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart

Kaleidoscope Colors


To my son...

"when there's no light to break up the dark"

...he was and is my light

Songwriters: Lindsey, Hilary; Shanks, John
Preformed by Miley Cyrus

"When I Look At You"

Everybody needs inspiration,
Everybody needs a soul.
A beautiful melody,
When the night's are long.
Cause there is no guarantee,
That this life is easy.

And when my world is falling apart.
When there's no light to break up the dark,
That's when I, I, I look at you.
When the waves are flooding the shore,
and I can't find my way home anymore.
That's when I, I, I look at you.

When I look at you,
I see forgiveness,
I see the truth.
You love me for who I am,
Like the stars hold the moon,
Right there where they belong.
and I know I'm not alone.

Yeah when my world is falling apart,
When there's no light to break up the dark,
That's when I, I, I look at you.
When the waves are flooding the shore,
and I can't find my way home anymore,
That's when I, I, I look at you.

You, appear just like a dream to me.
Just like kaleidoscope colors,
That cover me,
All I need,
Every breath that I breathe,
Don't you know you're beautiful!

Yeah

When the waves are flooding the shore,
and I can't find my way home anymore,
That's when I, I, I look at you.
I look at you, Yeah, Woah.

You, appear just like a dream to me.
