“once ago i was strong till i met your gaze

your smile made me weak your heart made me incomplete

i was not awake but you lifted me” – LIFT 2009 © S. D’Giff

I posted a little excerpt from a song I just wrote called “LIFT”.

Lovers come and lovers go. It is a concept really; one which I fully understood. I never held on too tight, however I never really felt much to grasp. I always found it quite simple to convey my feelings; my feelings were quite unequivocal. I always knew what to say, and when to say it. I never had a myriad of indescribable feelings, simply because my feelings were easily defined and pretty conventional. Anxiety generally rests among the fear of the unknown. I suppose that can explain why lately my ability to communicate, or convey my inner most thoughts and feelings, have caused my emotions to go awry. I have all of these indescribable feelings which actually feel good, but the idea of not knowing what they are exactly has me a bit afraid. Afraid, and reluctant to share. The worst part is knowing this source of elatedness and inspiration comes from another person. The moment you find something as rare as inspiration, you better grasp at whatever pieces you can. Take the ride, if it is a good ride, why not? I must say, I was afraid to ride “THE CYCLONE”, when I was 8 years old, for obvious reasons. It seemed a bit unstable and worn out, but it was thrilling! It was over before I could open my eyes and actually scream… Which is the most I can say about past lovers.
