my thread

[virgin_not]

now don't let it get around that I stood up for you. I'm starting to get a reputation as an asshole and a psycho, I wouldn't want anything to ruin it. lol.

I dunno why you stopped posting here, but you'd have probably been better off. I've tried to stop a few times but I can't stay away. anyway, good to see you. stop in and say hi anytime, unless I ever really get away for good.

Well Mister like I always tell ya,you can't please everyone. Be safe Moon.

Ohhh silly Moonbeam - you should know you can't stay away from us. We're the only addiction you will never ever want to get over.......(hmm there is a song in there somewhere I think)

Let all the others talk and flap their wings - the only truth you need to remember is that you are a sweet and special guy and we care about you. Just wuvin' the Moonbeam that lights my way in the dark - don't ever turn out your light.

good afternoon, parkay. sorry I missed you but I was at work. here's a smile just for you, tho.

Been floating around the threads, and thought I'd drop by to say "Good afternoon/evening". Hope you had a good day, Moon.

today has been kind of a rough day for me. 2 old ladies that had been missing since april were finally found a couple of days ago. didn't bother me much at first, but the more I read about the story the more it got to me.

they'd decided to go shopping to an outlet mall, but they didn't let anyone know exactly which one. neither one had a cell phone with them. apparently they missed the exit, turned off to try to get turned around and wound up with their car stuck in a rut in a dry creek bed in a remote area.

the ironic thing is now that the car has been found, in the fall, with the leaves vanishing from the trees, the car was within sight and earshot of the freeway. that wasn't the case with the trees and foliage in full bloom.

they were 80 and 69.... I guess the one blessing is that as far as anyone knows, death wasn't the result of an attack. they just wound up in the wrong place at the wrong time. one's remains were found near the car, the other's were found about 600 feet away. she was trying to get to the highway to get them some help. I can't help thinking what a horrible way that must be to die. it'd so sad. the junkie in me just had to come out to play tonight. (someone else's word, not mine.)

it's a very crazy, mixed up world we live in at imes.

 

[Buttah]

What a horrible story Moon and I agree the world is crazy. Sometimes I wonder why we even want to live in a place where the bad always seems to overshadow the good.

I have 2 doctor appts. today so remember to smile ... I'll try to remember too.

yeah, I know. I guess I shouldn't talk about stuff like that. this is supposed to be a fun place.. I hope the appointments aren't for anything too serious. I'll try to smile somne today... if thinking about your smile doesn't do it, I dunno what will.

what kind of pie did you decide on the other day?

I figure we are allowed to talk about anything we please. Freedom of speech rocks. Apple and cherry both, why pick just one?

oh, I know you're right about the free speech thing. I also know that talking about real feelings is why so many people think I'm a downer. Lit's supposed to be fun and flirty. I'm just not as good at that as most of the other guys here.

I knew you were thinking about making both, but I didn't know what you decided. how's your pumpkin pie?

Lit is what we want to make of it. Flirting 24/7 gets boring fast in my opinion. Real feelings matter Moon, good or bad. If people want Paradise Lit is the last place they should be.

My pumpkin pies are okay, my little girl doesn't like pumpkin so I usually only make them if companies coming.

 

[NorthernPA4U]

Wow, that is a sad story. Would be a fear-filled, frustrating way to go, I would imagine ... recognizing help is in theory so close, and not being able to get there.

There are a lot of places in Lit that aren't fun and games. Don't let people get you down. People who come here just for light-hearted threads have plenty of opportunity to find them.

I hope you find some enjoyment out of Lit yourself.

NOT being fun and flirty rocks to me.

I love pumpkin pie. I used to make them every year for thanksgiving, exceept for the crust. too juch trouble for a lazy bastard like me. everyone always said they were really good, tho... maybe I'll try it again this year for thanksgiving or christmas.

I'm assuming you're one of those martha stewart types that even makes your own crust?

well, I enjoy your thread. I enjoy it when I get to interact with certain people I really like. I even flirt a little bit, but not nearly as much as most of the guys here. sometimes I get a little envious of them for making it seem so easy.

then, of course, there are the times I get into set-tos with certain people. those can be fun in their own right, tho I realize it's not so much fun for the people that have to read it, so I'm trying to mellow out.

 

[mrtnmoon]

you should love me, then. I was tested once and found to be only only 24.3% fun and flirty.

just because I'm in a romantic mood for some reason (weird, since I'm feeling so lonely), I'm going to once again share the lyrics ro what I think is one of the most romanti songs of all time. this song will definitely be played ay my wedding reception, should such an event ever occur. I wish I could just attach the song because it's so much more beautiful with the music, but the technologu escapes me. it's by a singer formerly of a band called triumph named rik emmett. hope you enjoy.

let me be the one

who will vow to have and hold you
love you more than words can say?
who will build their world around you
and stand beside you all the way?

when you need a friend you can rely on
a shoulder you can cry on
who will pick you up when you fall and who'll come running when you call...
who'll be there for you when all is said and done?

let me be the one....

who will help you write the pages
in the story of your life?
and who will promise you tomorrow
every single time you kiss goodnight?

who will love you always and forever
as you face this crazy world together?
who will make you smile through your tears and who'll share all your secret fears...
who'll wake up beside you when each morning comes?

oh, let me be the one

let me be the one your heart will know
the partner of your soul
the one who laughs and cries with you
the one who lives and dies for you
the only one you need
to share your hopes and dreams, darling
I can handle any fate that comes
if you would only let me be the one

let me be the one

wrap those lyrics in a simple piano/acoustic guitar-based arrangement so there's nothing to hide the beauty of the words and rik's voice.... it melts me every time. or breaks my heart.

*let me be the one - rik emmett from his cd the spiral notebook

Have a great and smiley day Moon ... I have more doctor appts. See you soon!

was another rough day for me at work. besides the physical stuff that always makes me hurt like hell, lately I've been having people ask me if I've heard from "the girl". I thought by now that everyone knew she didn't talk to me for the last 3 months we worked together, but I guess not. it's hard enough trying not to think of her when everywhere I turn there's a reminder.... to have people asking about her almost makes it too much to bear.

the stupid part is as shitty as she treated me, I still care and hope things are going well for her.

It'll take awhile, but eventually people will stop asking ... and eventually you'll stop thinking about her. But probably those times you do think about her, you'll still hope for the best for her.

I do, truly. I'll just never understand why things ended the way they did and I wonder how long it'll take to get past it. it probably doesn't help that sexually I just have this feeling that she's as close to my fantasy girl as I'll ever get, and most of those times were truly amazing.

weird ass weather...

we're suposed to be gearing up for the first snow flurries by now. instead, they're talking about tornado warnings and severe weather all over the place. freaky.

I found this cd tonight... I've been looking for it forever. I knew the last place I had it was in my portable cd player, but for the life of me I couldn't find the damn thing. my bro heard me talking about looking for the cd player a few times so he bought me one a couple of months ago. nice of him, to be sure, but it was the disc I was looking for. anyway, finally found it, been listening to it.

like so many other things for mr. melodrama here, bittersweet memories. I was turned on to the disc by some girl I used to to talk to online. it wasn't the first time I felt like I was in love, but it was the first time I felt it so intensely, and thought the feelings were returned. she was "the girl" before I started working with "the girl".

we progressed to trying to talk online, but that didn't work so well, so we'd exchange phone calls occasionally. I'd play my guitar and sing for her, and even tho I thought I sucked, the joy in her voice at listening to me, her words of encouragement.... made me feel so special. she was the one that talked me into actually going out and playing in public, open mike nights at some coffee shop.

I found out later that a lot of what she told me wasn't true, so when she talked about how much I touched her heart.... I guess that was probably a lie, too. dunno whether she was also lying about my "talents".... but I couldn't even touch a guitar for awhile and even now it's been a long time since I really enjoyed playing. maybe that's finally going away, tho, because I've been thinking about trying to get another guitar.

anyway, the cd.... still brings back those memories, but some of the songs are so beautiful that I can't help listening to them anyway. I remember her sounding so blown away that I taught myself how to play a few songs from the disc and sang them to her....

I dunno if it can even be bought anywhere now... the artist never really made much of a name for herself as far as I know, but what a beauty, what a voice and what great songs.

anymore
the sun is sinking lower now, baby
I lift up my eyes
and let the words out of my chest
why do you act so surprised

don't close your eyes and go back in
to the reality that I'm not in
I know I hurt you once before
but I won't hurt you anymore
cuz now I see and understand
by the look in your eyesand the touch of your hand
that it wasn't really through
cuz now I'm here with you

you tossed out an anchor
to my blistered heart
once the chain was broken
linking us worlds apart

don't close your eyes and go back in
to the reality that I'm not in
I know I hurt you once before
but I won't hurt you anymore
cuz now I see and understand
by the look in your eyesand the touch of your hand
that it wasn't really through
cuz now I'm here with you

I love your silent laughter
I love the way you smile
I love being with you
it makes this dream seem worth the while

don't close your eyes and go back in
to the reality that I'm not in
I know I hurt you once before
but I won't hurt you anymore
cuz now I see and understand
by the look in your eyes and the touch of your hand
that it wasn't really through
cuz now I'm here with you


lullabye for ben
why do we live in this mean world
tell me why it seems to be
that every time I ease my troubled mind
somebody's leaving me

four out of fifteen gone
it's hard to believe as I sit here with you tonight
wondering how something could go so wrong
when everything was almost right

so hang in there and don't be scared and don't forget to pray
someday we won't be sad anymore and friends won't go away

lord, how I want to but I can't cry
I've been living with my fears
clenching my fists and lynching my heart
to not give in to tears

someone rock my soul to sleep
would you tell me whose turn is it now
all my friends are buried so deep
I'm asking you why and how

so hang in there and don't be scared and don't forget to pray
someday we won't be sad anymore and friends won't go away
who'll be left to sing so sweetly
a lullabye for ben
one by one they become memories
completing this circle of friends

patiently our names are called
and we stammer into fate
sometimes we rise and sometimes we fall
sometimes it's just too late

I cannot live inside these walls
though I believe it's true
we hand it over to heaven
when there's nothing more we can do
bring it on through, yeah

so hang in there and don't be scared and don't forget to pray
someday we won't be sad anymore and friends won't go away
who'll be left to sing so sweetly
a lullabye for ben
one by one they become memories
completing this circle of friends

one by one they become memories
completing this circle of friends
completing this circle of friends
completing this circle of friends
completing this circle of friends

I've never really been sure what I believe as far as whether or not god exists, but "lullabye for ben" always makes me at least hope that there really is a heaven.

 

[virgin_not]

Both songs are good ^o^,lyrics are so true and very touching. Hope you have a good weekend Mr.Moon. Oh about heaven, it does exists as far as I believed.
