Artist. Global citizen.
Introvert and extrovert - like the tide.
I wonder how long I have known you before I actually knew you.
So show me your soul and I'll show you mine.
17/02/18. 19:14. Day 48. White Rabbit. Fourth original uke song yaaas. First one I ever wrote tho, but still rings true. Named after Alice - losing and find(winn)ing yourself again. Full lyrics: "Sometimes you'll spend a long time runnin' Unsure of which way to go But good times come with bad Why do you look so sad? Oh sweetie, wipe your eyes, and know... That mommy had a struggle in the grocery store because Daddy won't stop demanding alcohol She had a soft place in her heart But he filled it wth a dart And now the girls are left on their own Struggling always happens when you climb down to the place Where all the bums and all the drug - they always cut right to the chase Asking, pleading, begging, weeping All the good ones left some space Cuz they know how to forgive and let go The road ahead is paved with caves You'll learn to see in the dark Your hands and knees will bleed But the scars will soon recede And you will become who you need. You'll grad the knife your daddy has on his sleeve And you'll cut weeds in your sleep You'll grow to be who you want to be And you'll be who you need. You'll be who you need x3" - Archer #selfexpressionchallenge #day48 #whiterabbit #ukulele #original #song #colors #archer #notetoshelf
Vellichor /ˈvɛlɪkə/ n. the strange wistfulness of used bookstores, which are somehow infused with the passage of time — filled with thousands of old books you’ll never have time to read, each of which is itself locked in its own era, bound and dated and papered over like an old room the author abandoned years ago, a hidden annex littered with thoughts left just as they were on the day they were captured. (by The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows).
12/01/18. 10:22. Day 12. What You Never Said. Sometimes, even though you know it’s true, you need to hear it said…
Full lyrics:
‘So today we’ll go our separate ways,
don’t say that you won’t be okay.
Struggling for a corner of your own.
Making space when you have not a home.
Honey, you’ll be alright. Honey, you’ll be alright.
This is what I wish you’d said to me.
Came to you with vulnerability.
Knowing what to say was your forte;
a weakness when you stopped playing the game.
You’ll find room, you’ll find you.
Somewhere away from me.
Need to hear it said, I’ll say it to myself.
Need to hear it said, I’ll say it to myself.
Honey, you’ll be alright. Honey, you’ll be alright.
Baby, you’ll be alright. Little one, you’ll be alright.'
Day 2. 02/02/18. 23:49 E.N.D. Song I wrote a while back, but I can now play it on the uke!👌🏻 Full lyrics:
“Let’s take it slow”
You said “little one, no.
It’s all or nothing with me.
For now we’re not meant to be.”
What am I supposed to do with that?
You cannot hold me back.
Love takes time
And you are impatient
Chemicals - they never last
I miss what we never were
sorry I could not be her
Though no one is to blame
don’t hold true to your name
For someone who is so surefooted
You only know how to let go
You told me you’re not one to forget and we aren’t ready for each other yet
I don’t think of you any more
But I don’t think of you any less
Wrote a list of all your flaws so I could stop thinking you’re perfect
You say I’m wrong if I don’t think you’re right.
“Forever” is meaningless..
I miss what we never were
sorry I could not be her
I miss what we could’ve been
I’m so sorry you’re not him.
