Crazy For You


If you've never heard the amazing voice of Adele, you must check her out. I've been humming this adorable song all weekend. It's "Crazy For You" and it makes me jealous that I didn't write it myself!


Found myself today singing out loud your name,

you said I'm crazy,
if I am, I'm crazy for you.

Sometimes sitting in the dark wishing you were here
turns me crazy,
but it's you who makes me lose my head.

And every time I'm meant to be acting sensible
you drift into my head
and turn me into a crumbling fool.

Tell me to run and I'll race,
if you want me to stop I'll freeze,
and if you are me gonna leave, just hold me closer baby,
and make me crazy for you.
Crazy for you.

Lately with this state I'm in I can't help myself but spin.
I wish you'd come over,
send me spinning closer to you.


I keep on trying, fighting these feelings away,
but the more I do,
the crazier I turn into.

My oh my, how my blood boils, its sweet taste for you,
strips me down bare
and gets me into my favorite mood.

Pacing floors and opening doors,
hoping you'll walk through
and save me boy,
because I'm too crazy for you.
Crazy for you.

Just A Minute



Just give me a minute
To get used to how amazing you feel.
To soak in this moment and
Breathe in your space.

Don't move an inch
While I memorize your lines.
Over. Under. Around. Through.

Forget the clock for our little while
And let this time be swollen and lazy.
Let's kick off our shoes and lounge
With this instant.
Practice forever--
Try it on for size.

Hold that crooked smile one more second.
Just long enough for me to get hooked;
For you to snag my heart.
Hook.
Line.
Sinker.

Me in the Eyes of a Friend



A friend recently gave me the best compliment I have received in a while. It is lingering with me so I thought I'd share it. He said: "You are refreshing to be around, someone such as yourself who very rarely or never
can't get over her problems/inner strife, who can always put the interaction above the self. It's as if you have some preternatural understanding of how being with someone in a good way can be all you need." What a beautifully stated expression to sum up a friend. I'm lucky.

My Heart in Your Hands




The sound of your voice makes my

Little girl heart float out from me
And drift back and forth between us,
Like a Frisbee floating through the sky
On a beach somewhere in the ol’ US of A.

Be careful and catch it every time.
No tricks or catching it under your legs
Or flinging it backwards,
Hoping I snag it before the hot sand does.
No tricks.
Hey, that’s my heart in your hands.
