Blackbird Fly Away
Serena Matthews

Like a broken basketball
on a dirty backyard court,
I was unable to roll away
but I have air now

Up this ladder, I keep climbing
trying to reach a little farther
dig my hands into the water
breaking up the storm
(and there she goes)

Blackbird, fly away
into the hollow sky
Blackbird, take me with you
'cause I can't fly
I'll hold on tightly
(but I can't fly)

Looking up , I reach out
stealing falling feathers
as they tumble to the ground
it's strange how they
work so well for you
while slowing me down
(blackbird, I envy you)

I could leave here on my own
if my heart was not so heavy
maybe you can teach me
how to swim in the sky

Blackbird, fly away
into the hollow sky
Blackbird, take me with you
'cause I can't fly
I'll hold on tightly


Today's word of the day: message.

I got the message long ago. The message that read: Dear Beth, we're sorry, but life isn't what you think it is. You can't make your own life, you just have to roll with the punches. We're sorry if this has caused some inconvenience along the way, but I'm sure someday you'll find what your looking for. Its not you, its me.

Hahahahahahaha...yeah right. SHUT UP!

P.S. Am I the only one who never had a crush on Jose Vega? I love the guy to death, (yeah 'Ros IX!) but he was just a really nice friend. Not boyfriend material for me. I'd like all of you to ponder this today. Did you have ever have a crush on Jose Vega?
