Tender Feelings

Power and beauty of youth

2009-09-20T14:39:33Z

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Well nevermind, you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they’ve faded. But trust me, in twenty years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked. You are not as fat as you imagine. Don’t worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 PM on some idle Tuesday.

Tender Feelings

thinking of you
thinking of the moment
thinking of the meaning of life
always
but happiness is away
and the hurt is there
just 'cause
you're not happy
and I'm not good

Advice

Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it.
Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it’s worth.

Tender one

Sometimes I ask myself
loving someone
is this just a bit more
than feeling the pain
and knowing for myself
that even I'm trying to find
the real tender one
in myself

Jealousy

Don’t waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes you’re behind. The race is long, and in the end it’s only with yourself.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.

Dreaming

I held you in my arms last night.
I felt as if the whole world had stopped.
All that mattered was you.
Your body pressed close to mine; I felt as if was in heaven.
Our song playing on the radio we sat together on the couch.
I close my eyes and I can see and feel everything over again.
I feel the warmth of your body.
I can smell the wonderful perfume you wear.
I see and feel the love in your eyes and in your smile.
