Bluebird


Sara Bareilles always knows how to express the feelings of my heart, I've found . Her new song on her album "Kaleidoscope Heart" called "Bluebird" is basically how I sum up how I'm feeling at the present moment, not only regarding the obvious allusion to relationships, but to life in general and steps I plan on taking. The boy(and yes, he is very much a boy) that I seriously thought I could have a future with is being a ninny. The timing just wasn't right on either of our accounts and I just need to fly away to let him live the life he wants to. Maybe something will happen when I get back from my mission, but until then I'm going to move on. As for the deeper application, I'm in another transitional period in my life. After a lot of thought, soul searching and realizations, I finally know which direction I need to move toward. But turning on my wings still means goodbye to the love I've found here. I'm going to do it. I just have to keep trying my best, praying, and I need to step back and stop getting in the way. I hate being patient. All I want is for things to just happen, but I'm learning it doesn't quite happen that way. At least not at the present moment. Below is the link (click on the word bluebird in the title) and the lyrics to this beautiful song. Tell me what you think. I'm open for opinions, direction, anything. Keep it real readers.

Bluebird

Word came through in a letter,
One of us changing our minds.
You won't need to guess who, since I usually do,
Not send letters to me that are mine.

Told you I saw this coming,
That I'd practically packed up my things.
Was glad at the time that I'd said I was fine but,
All honesty knows, I wasn't ready, no.

And so here we go bluebird,
Back to the sky on your own.
Oh let him go bluebird,
Ready to fly,
You and I,
Here we go.
Here we go.

This pair of wings worn and rusted,
From too many years by my side,
They can carry me swear to be,
Sturdy and strong but see,
Turning them on still means goodbye.

And so here we go bluebird,
Gather your strength and rise up.
Oh let him go bluebird.
Oh let him go bluebird.
Oh let him go bluebird.
Ready to fly,
You and I,
Here we go.

Here we go...
