But the greatest of these is LOVE

Grammar stops at love, and at art. ~Valentine Sterling

God offers to every mind its choice between truth and repose. Take which you please - you can never have both. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Though I seek truth, I feel I'm living a lie.
There is also something to be done about it
it hardly ever, ever, feels that I have the strength to do something.

In these lyrics, there is a fairy tale

Going back to the corner where I first saw you, 
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move, 
Got some words on cardboard got your picture in my hand, 
Saying if you see this girl can you tell her where I am, 
Some try to hand me money they don't understand, 
I'm not...broke I'm just a broken hearted man, 
I know it makes no sense, but what else can I do, 
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you... 

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me, 
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be, 
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet, 
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I'm not moving... 
I'm not moving.

Policeman says son you can't stay here, 
I said there's someone I'm waiting for if it's a day, a month, a year,
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows, 
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go.

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me, 
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be, 
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet, 
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.

So I'm not moving... 
I'm not moving.

I'm not moving... 
I'm not moving.

People talk about the guy
Who's waiting on a girl... 
Oohoohwoo
There are no holes in his shoes
But a big hole in his world... 
Hmmmm

and maybe I'll get famous as man who can't be moved, 
And maybe you won't mean to but you'll see me on the news, 
And you'll come running to the corner... 
Cos you'll know it's just for you

I'm the man who can't be moved
I'm the man who can't be moved... 

Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me, 
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be, 
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet, 
And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street.
[Repeat in background]

So I'm not moving... 
I'm not moving.

I'm not moving... 
I'm not moving.

Going back to the corner where I first saw you, 
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag not I'm not gonna move.

Happiness

"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best," and then he had to stop and think.  Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called.  ~A.A. Milne

God offers to every mind its choice between truth and repose. Take which you please - you can never have both. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson


 LIFESONG

Flange my wings, crepe my cape
Before I fly, but soar I will.
The deaf, blind to song,
 Still feel my bearing; askew,
 Out-takes galore until
I get it right. Silk is not
Soft as my kiss, nor
Air carry the cry of my
Throat, and the warbling of
Doves is not ample enough
For my poems and psalm:
 Just you.

 What brings:
 Brought my heart,
 And on
 Wings of desire.

This, my image
Prone
Mind
- This strange-
Soul:
 Hews more than snow smeared
Earth, each crystal an unlike
Being, masking summer trails,
    But my is of a nature
One, my Maker guides this
  Flight, joy and cry,
 Wrung from being's pores/
 Soared on mimic stars and
Glistened fancy......yes

I bled, but oh heart, 
 Those you shared
            With    me. 

I really should get back to charcoal drawing

No right minds could wrong be this many times -SB

"Between The Lines"

Time to tell me the truth
To burden your mouth for what you say
No pieces of paper in the way
Cause i cant continue pretending to choose
The opposite sides on which we fall
The loving you laters if at all
No right minds could wrong be this many times

My memory is cruel
Im queen of attention to details
Defending intentions if he fails
Until now, he told me her name
It sounded familiar in a way
I could have sworn i'd heard him say it ten thousand times
If only i had been listening

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always between the lines
Between the lines

I thought i thought i was ready to bleed
That we'd move from the shadows on the wall
And stand in the center of it all
Too late two choices to stay or to leave
Mine was so easy to uncover
He'd already left with the other
So i've learned to listen through silence

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me be
You and me always be

I tell myself all the words he surely meant to say
I'll talk until the conversation doesn't stay on
Wait for me i'm almost ready
When he meant let go

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always be
You and me
Always between the lines
