This is a picture of a black hole.

Or rather, a black hole sucking up a bunch of galactic deals that theoretically will never be seen again.

This is how I’m feeling with my writing these days.  I feel like a black hole, sucking up ideas, inspiration, experiences…internalizing them…but somehow I’m stuck.  I haven’t written anything in several months.  I take notes here and there, hoping that an idea will grow but nothing yet.  And this is frustrating.  So very frustrating.  Even my blog posts are beginning to sound empty.

Life gets in the way of art sometimes.  But without art, I would die.

"Three Little Birds" by Bob Marley

Don’t worry about a thing,
‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right.
Singin’ “Don’t worry about a thing,
‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right!

This song makes me feel good.  It’s been in my head all week.  Thanks, Bob.

"Losing You" by Randy Newman

Do you know how much you mean to me?
Should’ve told you ‘cause it’s true
I’d get over losing anything
But I’ll never get over losing you

Damn.  Just…damn.

“I woke up feeling heavy hearted
I’m going back to where I started
The morning rain
The morning rain
And you know I wish that you were here
But that same old road that brought me here
Is calling me home
Is calling me home”

“Hiding My Heart Away” - Brandi Carlisle

“It well may be that we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me is made from what I learned from you
You’ll be with me like a handprint on my heart”

“For Good” from WICKED

I call you misplaced but never a waste of my time. Everybody’s gonna make mistakes, but you’ll never be one of mine.

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we’ll make it anywhere
Away from here

By the time I recognize this moment, this moment will be gone
But I will bend the light, pretend that it somehow lingered on

The Way You Are
Words and Music ©Yvonne Same
December 28, 2010

I was your healer
When you needed me to be
Midnight in the winter
Midnight on the beach

While you came together
I crumbled in your arms
Leaving me defenseless 
While you escaped unharmed
Holding you accounted
For all of your mistakes
The things I ache to tell you
No longer have their place

Loving you was easy and easily so wrong
The shelf life on your promises was never ever long
So you’ll remain a fable
Untouchable as a star
That’s the way The Author wrote you 
That’s just the way you are

As the space between us
Grows wider with time
You emerge the victor
When you lay me on the line
But I have made my peace
With the universal hand
Keeping you unsteady
Keeping you in demand

Loving you was easy and easily so wrong
The shelf life on your promises was never ever long
So you’ll remain a fable
Untouchable as a star
That’s the way The Author wrote you 
That’s just the way you are

I was your healer
When you needed me to be
Midnight in the winter
Midnight on the beach

Loving you was easy and easily so wrong
The shelf life on your promises was never ever long
So you’ll remain a fable
Untouchable as a star
That’s the way The Author wrote you 
That’s just the way you are
