Wayback iPod

February 25, 2008

Friend,
I am with you when you cry
closer to your face
than the water in your eyes

Cry
Those tears become my own
I know that you are homesick
even though you’re home

I whisper in your ear
“you are already free”
Soon you will laugh
and remember that you’re me
You were never lost
the heart was always full
The heart is all there is
Invincible

Friend
I am with you when you weep
when both your eyes are closed
and you don’t know you’re asleep

Dream
at night you dream of harm
You dream that you are lost
But you’re sleeping in my arms

I whisper in your ear
“you are already free”
Soon you will wake up
and remember that you’re me
You were never lost
the heart was always full
The heart is all there is
Invincible

- Invincible by Stuart Davis

Woah boy, iPod. You’re treading on thin ice bringing this song back to me!

Stuart Davis will always be associated with such a melodramatic time in my life.

I suppose there’s nothing wrong with revisiting that place every once in a while.

I just wouldn’t want to live there!

In the meantime, I’m savoring samsara.

    lol… yup, back to the good old days. Just don’t overstay your visit like I’m doing, haha.

    And savoring samsara appears to be a very… interesting song.
