Ordinary World

Posted on by

Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can’t escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some are saying
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away

But I won’t cry for yesterday
There’s an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
“Pride will tear us both apart”
Well now pride’s gone out the window
Cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me?
Crazy, some’d say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away

But I won’t cry for yesterday
There’s an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Here today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I don’t cry for yesterday
There’s an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

It’s time for Bea

I’m having one of those really icky days. Dealing with lawyer stuff isn’t fun. I had to leave very early this morning to sign papers and arrange a few things. I was supposed to go to la cabane à sucre with my friends, but I really don’t feel like it. I just need sometime for me, to be alone and since all the roomies left, this is the perfect day to do it. I’m cleaning the apartment (Holy mess, Batman!), going for groceries later, study just a little (decided to take a day off from books because I’m really tired, even had a migraine yesterday). I also have a few movies we rented, so I’m going to watch “Just Like Heaven” for the 2nd time and try to relax.

This is a mad race. Finals, divorce, crazy roomies all over. Don’t get me wrong, I love my people, but now it’s time for Bea, because I need it.

Roomie’s B-Day

I tried to hire some Water Polo girls to come and visit you, but they complained about the weather not being warm enough for them to wear their swimming suits. They sent a photo with their best wishes, though. Mwah!

Withdrawal

I will never understand the amazing capacity we human beings have to hurt ourselves, especially my own capacity to do things I know very well are only going to make my life more difficult. Nothing serious, really, but when the alarms start going on inside, there’s usually a good reason. There are doors to be closed and keys to be thrown away. I wonder what took me so long. Time to withdraw.
