So I was reading some of my friends blogs earlier today, and came upon something that I've seen before ...
it was one of those survey type things, but with a twist. Basically, it said
"Write something to 7 different people that you'd like them to know, or something that you had to
say, but never could tell them directly, or just something that should have been said sooner or later.
No names, just words."

I realized that it was something that I've wanted to do a lot of the time. Things that I wanted to say, but never did.

This is the sanctuary for those words left unspoken.

Maybe if you're one of the few people who read this, you'll see something that
was once supposed to be directed to you.




In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along

I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense

And every time I've held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose

But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break

And this is why my eyes are closed
It's just as well for all I've seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows

So I would choose to be with you
That's if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break

And so it goes, and so it goes
And you're the only one who knows.

 you be the rhythm, ill be the beat

New York City is supposed to be magical during the holiday season. All of the movies agree to that point, and the crowds of overexcited tourists would swear a testimonial to the idea. The city is bundled with hope and wishes coming true and the revelation of the best in people.

I imagine a city emblazoned with crystal, and moments when the rest of the world fades away, leaving behind the translucence of the secrets of life. It makes ever little thing make sense, and every mistake we made in the past is given reason.

Your breathing resonates with the rhythm of your life. Your heart beats with the bass of your existence.

Our souls entwine. The dance makes the melody.


Like the first snow of winter settling upon the tip of your tongue, you melt my world away with every breath you take.
