If I could open my armsAnd span the length of the isle of ManhattanI'd bring it to where you areMaking a lake of the East River and HudsonAnd if I could open my mouthWide enough for a marching band to march outThey would make your name singAnd bend through alleys and bounce off other buildingsSorrow drips into your heart through a pinholeJust like a faucet that leaks and there is comfort in the soundBut while you debate half empty or half fullIt slowly rises, your love is gonna drownDeath Cab For Cutie - Marching Bands of ManhattanIt's raining again. I use to love rainy days, especially in the comfort of my own home, the cosiness and warmth under a blanket. Peering outside of my window, watching the rain fall onto the ground, amazed by how raindrops fall in straight lines, watching people run to shelter.. But now? I cringe at the sound of rumbling and crackling thunder, lightning scares me (it never did 'til now), suddenly I feel so vulnerable. Perhaps its the sense of insecurity again, it keeps coming back to haunt.
The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart. - Psalm 34:18Such a comforting verse.. :)
Rah, I think its that time of the month. I'm going to play the organ.
All it took was a smile.
