Pretend

Though I may be crazy
Though I may be blind,
no matter what I have done to hurt you,
no matter what you have done to hurt me,
you won't forget me.
You may say you hate me,
you may make yourself believe it,
but the truth lies in the words you speak
like a diamond in a maze,
you miss me..
I can pretend you don't exist for days,
does that eat at you?
If you've noticed, I said pretend..
it isn't easy pretending when your face
flashes before my eyes at least once a day.
Though we've moved on,
though we've said things that we can't take back,
I know as well as you do,
that we'll never completely hate each other.

Loss

On this day in August, I lost my baby.. On this day, I lost my best friend. Though I regret some things, I don't regret the love. All I have to remember both of you by are the scars I see every day in the mirror. I'll get over it soon. I always move forward. There'll be brighter days for me.

Music Monday :)

If you haven't heard the newest Wiz Khalifa album yet, you're missing out.. I'm not big on rap, but this guy is extremely talented.. and of course, sexy ;)




Cee Lo is known for his unique voice and of course, his off the wall approach towards music.. paying homage to the Motown Days, this song is a sweet approach to saying, well.. Fuck You :) Fantastic song!



Fan of System of a Down? Then I know you'll love Serj Tankian, the lead singer.. His single from the album has so many meanings.. listen closely and don't let the video "trip" you out, lol..



Love the sound of this band.. and however oxymoronic the statement is, doesn't everyone need a perfect breakup song?



They were my favorite band until I was introduced to RHCP.. I absolutely love this band and Rivers Cuomo is an absolute genius.. and the sexiest nerd ever :)



Since he'll be released in less than a month, I thought it would be appropiate to post a song from his album released last week.. He isn't human.. as he reiiterates, he is a martian..

All I Want

Nothing's so loud
as hearing when we lie..
The truth is not kind,
and you've said neither am I..
but the air outside so soft is saying everything..
everything..

All I want is to feel this way..
to be this close, to feel the same..
All I want is to feel this way
the evening speaks, I feel it say..

Nothing's so cold
as closing the heart when all we need
is to free the soul..
but we wouldn't be that brave I know
and the air outside so soft, confessing everything..
everything..

And it won't matter now..
whatever happens will be..
though the air speaks of all we'll never be,
it won't trouble me..

And it feels so close,
let it take me in..
let it hold me so
I can feel it say...

What is love? Baby, don't hurt me..

They always say when you stop looking for love, it will find you. I've had it happen to me before and I ran with it.. it ended in a disaster of mixed feelings and mornings of waking up to tears before my vision could focus on any one object. I ask myself daily, "What do you want Nat?" My answer is always the same: I want someone to love me. Sure I have friends that love me, guys that tell me they love me, and family members that unconditionally love me more than the rest. That is more than anyone could ever ask for, and should be enough. But I want one person I can count on that wants and needs me in their life just as much as I want and need them. I want to be someone's other half, not just share the other half of their bed. I feel like I love the ones that don't want me as much as I want them. I'm always falling in the same pattern trying to find what I think is my ideal. It only sets me up for the heartache I purposely put up with thinking it will be better or maybe, just maybe he would wake up and see, I can't live without her.

Right now, I'm in a state of confusion. I should be happy I'm not tied down in a loveless, benefits only relationship. But I'm not. I feel I'm more unhappy with myself than I am with the disappointment of men around me. In my mind, questions always tear me apart. The one question that never fails to hurt, What is wrong with me? I know you're supposed to feel a certain way and people are supposed to start to believe it of you. I feel beautiful, most days. I feel it's also a front most days too. I hide behind walls I take down brick by brick to show those that I do have something to offer that I don't offer people I don't care about.. and then I build it right back up. I want to be loved, but with the mistakes I've been making lately, I don't want to break my walls down anymore. So tell me, where did my independence go? I think I lost it with the last "I don't love you anymore" whispered to me. For someone who doesn't know how to not love, I think it's time I need to learn how..

I don't need to speak.. You need to listen.

I wish I could find someone who at least comprehends that sometimes I don't KNOW how to speak what's on my mind.. I just want someone to say they understand and I can talk when I'm ready to talk. Not get angry with me. Hell, I'm angry and I'd like time to think about what I'm gonna say before I say it. Cause when I'm angry, I get extremely defensive and easily offended. So back off. If my body language isn't telling you to do so, than you have more to learn about me than the obvious.

I need to update..

Yeah, it's been awhile dear friend..

I have too much to say..
