05/16/2002 entry: "slow sun"

Hit me with some winter, and put this fire out.
I don't know how much longer I can stand to burn,
Can stand this early heat.

Throw some ice my way so I can just forget;
Shock me out of this lazy, painful place I am in.

Crazy heart in a summer way.

Never every say how I'd wait
For a little spark to fly my way.
Because all colors do fade, and I have gone from blue to grey.

You kill me in the sweetest way.

But spare me, spare me.

I just thought I'd share that. It's one of my new songs. I like it. And the music I put to it already. It's fun.

I decided today that for the first time, I really do have a bunch of sincerely good songs that I like. That one, another called Ghosts, another called Getting By, and then I have like 3 older songs that I still really like (Dear Veruca, Video Game Heaven and Believe) and more lyrics that I want to put to music when I get home and have access to some drums and stuff.

Things are pretty good.

I was forced yesterday to put two of my pictures in a gallery the Art Club does for Cornerstone Day. They're pre-judging, and I got a call today saying one of my pieces did make it in, that they didn't have much space because of all the entries... yeah whatever. Anyhow, so there's a small chance I may win something. Although, I doubt it. But you know. The drawing that got in WAS the one I thought would get in. And it is expressive and not bad. Not perfect though. There's a couple things I should have fixed first. But I didn't want to put too much effort into this Competition bullshit. I hate competing with other artists because they always win. Well, not always. I used to hold my own a bit when I was younger, though not by the end of high school.

So anyhow. I'm going to play this song, and go to bed. Slow sun. And things will be great. And I will be tired tomorrow. But I do not care. :P
