I can stand with the weight of the world
On my shoulders
I can fight with the toughest of the tough
I can laugh in the face
Of all my insecurities
Anytime, anywhere, anything
I'm strong enough

But when you're holding me like this
I'm carelessly lost in your touch
I'm completely defenseless
Baby, it's almost too much
I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly
Falling in love

So let consequence do what it will to us
I don't care
Let the stars stand as witness to it all
Say the word and tonight I will follow you anywhere
I just can't pretend anymore
I'm too sturdy to fall

But when you're holding me like this
I'm carelessly lost in your touch
I'm completely defenseless
Baby, it's almost too much
I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly
Falling in love

I am not afraid
I am not afraid

'Cause when you're holding me like this
I'm carelessly lost in your touch
I'm completely defenseless
Baby, it's almost too much
I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly
Falling...
(Helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly falling)
I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly
Falling in love

-- Brett James and Troy Verges

I can't hide the way I feel about you anymore
I can't hold the hurt inside, keep the pain out of my eyes anymore
My tears no longer waiting... my resistance ain't that strong
My mind keeps recreating a life with you alone
And I'm tired of pretending that I don't love you anymore

Let me make one last appeal to show you how I feel about you...
Cause there's no one else I swear, holds a candle, anywhere, next to you
My heart can't take the beating of not having you to hold
A small voice keeps repeating deep inside my soul...
It says I can't keep pretending that I don't love you anymore

I've got to take the chance or let it pass by
If I expect to get on with my life
With my life...

And I can't hide the way I feel about you anymore
And I can't hold the hurt inside, keep the pain out of my eyes anymore
My tears no longer waiting
Oh, my resistance ain't that strong
Oh, my mind keeps recreating a love with you alone
And I'm tired of pretending I don't love you anymore... anymore... anymore

-- Travis Tritt

And he whispered to me in the darkness as we lay together,
"Tell me where to touch you so that I can drive you insane,
tell me where to touch you to give you ultimate pleasure,
tell me where to touch you so that we will truly own each other."
And I kissed him softly and whispered back,
"Touch my mind."

The most beautiful and most profound emotion we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the power of all true science.

- Albert Einstein

I'm Movin' On

Never before have I felt so strongly about a song. This song just brings me to tears. This song says all the things I have been unable to face, unable to say. 5 years of my life have passed me by and I have lost so damned much. I have been trapped in the past for too long. I cannot live like this anymore. I refuse to. This is MY life and I am going to live it.

Today is Beltaine, May Day. It is a time of reawakening, of the renewal of the lifeforce, of creativity, of rebirth, of love and sexuality, of birth and regeneration. Beltaine is a fire feast, and where there is fire, there is also passion. It is time for me to search for the fire in life. I yearn for the fire, the passion. For too long my life has been cold. As I arise from the ashes as the mythical Phoenix, I am reborn.

Here's to new beginnings, new hopes, new dreams.




I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on

I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on

I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarentees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone

I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived like I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
