Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed. Some say love, it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger an endless aching need. I say love, it is a flower and you its only seed.
It's the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance, It's the dream afraid of waking, that never takes the chance. It's the one who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give and the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long, and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong.
Just remember in the winter, far beneath the bitter snows lies the seed that with the sun's love in the spring becomes the rose
I have heard this song a gazillion times as a kid but you know, I don't think I ever got it until now. Sure I thought it was a pretty song and I even knew the words back then, but there was no way without living a little that I could ever understand the meaning within these lyrics.I understand now; as life has sent me on my journey and though I still have much living yet to do, I have been through enough that when I listened to this song today, it brought tears to my eyes. What a beautiful song this is, I am so glad I listened to it once again.
As for the photograph which is the reason I went and listened to the song in the first place...
This was our experiment with glitter and water on our flowers, Haley and I thought it would be fun to see what it would look like. She is pleased with the result and so am I. And yes, this is the kinda stuff we do for fun now a days. LOL
How beautiful
