Fireflies....

My soft pillows were beckoning me....

I couldn’t get away from my pc. I couldn’t turn down the music. By now, it had replayed maybe 7 times or so…and I still wanted to hear it more and more and more.
OWL CITY’s fireflies!! This is me, my folly!

Damn this guy is good! I wondered how, when and where did he come up with the lyrics. They hold on, a grasp that takes one to wonderland. I, for a moment was back home in New York…walking the same old street dreaming of things I can’t fathom.
One more time I tell my hubby…just one more! He normally would gripe at it, wanting to get some sleep but today he too is listening to what I was listening. I wonder if he’s lost too…lost in his own World. The places I envisioned the people I missed, the streets I recalled & you…

Nostalgic moods occupy my brain waves these days. It must be these harsh winters of Wisconsin...or just missing my parents..or maybe the fact the my kids don't seem to need me as much. I am officially mum to 2 teenagers & I am still sane!! for now atleast...

Note to self: Buy the Album! Upload song on my iPod!

ma vie s'effiloche

In the depths of my mind
My life unravels slowly
I dream & imagine a story wild
Lest it remains unraveled
Sanity an ordinary thought
A heart wants what it wants
A mind wishes & the heart sways
The saga unfolds as the heart desires

Sleep eludes me & smiles
Sleep beckons me & laughs
I know it’s fruitless
I dream, a dream impossible
My angst, sleep’s ecstasy
I have us to thank
Me myself and I


Translation:
ma vie s'effiloche = my life unravels
