oneword: stand

I don't get to oneword.com as often as I'd like to, but here is today's thoughts on "stand":

standing here
wondering
loneliness
setting in
I close my eyes
silhouette
leaving me
I'm all alone
emptiness
in my heart
love's absence
no longer alive

deep thoughts

I've been so busy with life these days... with learning a new job and trying to cram so much new information into my brain from two evening classes at school. Yesterday, however, I was having a conversation at work about making money and how it's less than it's been in awhile. (I'm sure many of you can relate to this.) And here's a thought that occurred to me...

In life we must fall in order to better appreciate the view from the top.

Hopefully that isn't something that was tucked away in my brain from someone else, but I don't believe it is.

Love Unconditional

I started working on this a couple of weeks ago and just picked it up to finish it. I actually have the beat in my head for these words as they sounded like great song lyrics to me. What do you think?

Love Unconditional

Holding my heart
In the palm of my hand
Broken and
Incomplete
Time standing still
Vulnerable
How could this be I'm
So emotional

And all I ever wanted
Was something rational
All I had to give was
My love unconditional
But all you could do
Was to treat me like a criminal
Interrogating my every word
Questioning everything I'd do

How could I have
Been so blind
To see that you were
Completely damaged
How could this be
I'm left standing
Here all alone
My love unconditional
