thoughts scattered
waiting
in silent reverie
emotions
lie wide awake
not feeling
good enough

...I need some distraction
Oh, beautiful release...

sweet lullaby
hypnotizing
unecessary
insecurities

...In the arms of the angel
fly away from here...

continously hitting
rewind
falling deeper
within
the endlessness

...Let me be empty
Oh, and weightless
And maybe I'll find some peace tonight...
    



If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

What a great write and encouragement to all of us.  To shake those nasty evil little insecurities, whatever they may be and get out there and kick...well, you know.  Smiles and hugs...and thank you for the great morning read.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Kristen, this is soooooooo gorgeous, sweet friend, "Angel" is my favorite Sarah McLachlan song along with "Good Enough" and "Aria" being personal favorites and I don't believe any song, with the possible exception of U2's "Walk On", can absolutely grasp the magnitude of emotion and compassion during recent tragedies and comfort! (wipes tears) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is beautiful, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kristen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
