Fix You

from Coldplay's Fix You:

When you feel so tired but you can't sleep, stuck in reverse..

I guess most if not all people can identify with that sometimes.
(Mine happens to be now)

But then comes my favorite part..

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

“Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.”
~ Albert Einstein

“The cello is like a beautiful woman who has not grown older, but younger with time, more slender, more supple, more graceful.”
~ Pablo Casals

So this girl lashed out her frustrations
Of having too many people controlling her
Decisions.
"But it is MY life, MY life!" she exclaimed
Half-screaming in the crowd
And I sat there, watching, listening
Wondering if she should let her temper
Her emotions, get the better of her
But now I look back
With admiration
At her fierce determination
Her courage
To go against the flow
She knew what she wanted
And would fight for it
Against pressures from all sides
Against conformity
She was brave
What about me?
Pushed from all sides to conform
Can I stand and fight
Do I have that courage at all

You called me fat and ugly
(not necessarily something I enjoy hearing, but..)
then complimented me for not being (that) high maintenance
(thanks for pointing out what really matters..)

Thanks for taking me out for sushi
though you never really like uncooked food
also for that delicious Korean cuisine, and the comforting soju
and for the heart-warming coffee in the morn
and fresh juice on weekends..

Thank you for giving good advice,
and keeping me on track, as stern as you are
I guess loving words are just not your forte, and that's okay

I know you love me

I love you too

I never said, but really
I admire Heidi Klum
She is a masterpiece
Truly a work of art
One I marvel at
Even though she
Does my self-esteem
More harm than good
