Wipe the sleep from your eyes, baby don’t keep me crying
How can you live your life when you’re worried of dying?
Who would’ve thought we possibly could make it this far,
set the world as a stage with my own bass guitar.
No I can’t complain, Im a hurricane - that much is true
but at least I’m making my own weather pattern
while I’m crying over you
I’m the morning rain then my feelings change, I become the dew
just some feelings in the mist to remind you
that the days not through
I’m the monkeys in the trees swinging tall in the breeze
I’m the small caterpillar that’s sprouting its wings
I’m the animals in the zoo, the world’s weather too
if I search for perspective & hear you
I might find,
I might see,
a new point of view
I have dreamt of love since I was 6 years old.. Whether or not this was authentic expression or preconceived notions from society, I could write pages of what I have learned thanks to love. I started writing these one liners in the spring of 2020. When the world had stopped just as I started gaining consciousness as a young adult. These pieces have been my life over many moons, across miles, and from the moments that hit most home. & this year 2024, on a leap day spoke to me as a call to finish out 2 more bass songs to make 7. Each a vulnerable living for self & all of the experience arrived to be you.
Love has taught me to be patient, as a lesson to learn everyday. I pray for my love & the peace of the lives within mine. This light has shown me merciless grace, continued forgiveness, and joyous company -even for someone who might be one in 7.8 billion.
One liners for the lonely, broken, tired, faithful,
one liners for the heavy hearted.
