“Leave”

It’s amazing how Tumblr rejuvenates me, how a hodgepodge of quotes and photographs…in all visual imagery or depiction could spark even a tiny sense of “life” that unleashes my will to do something different.

Different.

You know the thing is, sometimes, something gets so routinary, ordinary, familiar in our lives, it hardly is ever interesting. And that’s what we look for in life sometimes, the unique flavor in every piece of monoblock corner of the world.

For me right now, what i need is a hideout. A refuge of some sort. Motion. The will to be non-static and with continued energy.

The will to live manifests in my will to leave.

I think this is about letting God love you in the way He so desperately wants to, and in the way you so desperately don’t deserve. You’ll get over that feeling like you’re getting away with something. It’ll morph into thankfulness, if you let it. And once you experience this kind of love, you’ll look around at the men in your life, and say, “if he’s really walking with the Lord, I’ll see this kind of crazy undeserved love coming from Him.

We don’t have a word for the opposite of loneliness, but if we did, I could say that’s what I want in life. What I’m grateful and thankful to have found at Yale, and what I’m scared of losing when we wake up tomorrow and leave this place.

It’s not quite love and it’s not quite community; it’s just this feeling that there are people, an abundance of people, who are in this together. Who are on your team. When the check is paid and you stay at the table. When it’s four a.m. and no one goes to bed. That night with the guitar. That night we can’t remember. That time we did, we went, we saw, we laughed, we felt. The hats.

Here’s why you only really get to ‘express your feelings’ through a song, without needing to reason out WHY.

I will not make the same mistakes that you did

I will not let myself

Cause my heart so much misery

I will not break the way you did,

You fell so hard

I’ve learned the hard way

To never let it get that far

Because of you

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt

Because of you

I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me

Because of you

I am afraid

I lose my way

And it’s not too long before you point it out

I cannot cry

Because I know that’s weakness in your eyes

I’m forced to fake

A smile, a laugh everyday of my life

My heart can’t possibly break

When it wasn’t even whole to start with

Because of you

I never stray too far from the sidewalk

Because of you

I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt

Because of you

I try my hardest just to forget everything

Because of you

I don’t know how to let anyone else in

Because of you

I’m ashamed of my life because it’s empty

Because of you

I am afraid

It is okay for things to not be okay…

Home, Love, Family
There was once a time
I must have had them too
Home, Love, Family
I will never be complete
Until I find you…
