"Bleed Out"

Close my eyes
Feel you sigh
A desperate aching wonder
Will you ever, ever let me off my knees?
Wide awake
Like a dream
As simple as a secret
Being told, told to everyone but me

Will I
Bleed out
I gave it all
But you can't stop taking from me
And way down I know
 You know where to cut me
 With your eyes closed
 Bleed out
 It won't be long til this heart stops beating
 So don't let me bleed out here alone
 Hear my plea you won't hear my plea

 Sudden rain
 Coming down
 It all comes back to me
 Waking up, falling down
 Another day
 Come undone
 I keep trying to heal your pain
 In return, you cut me over and over
 One more time and I will

 Bleed out
 I gave it all
 But you can't stop taking from me
 And way down I know
 You know where to cut me
 With your eyes closed
 Bleed out
 It won't be long til my heart stops beating
 So don't let me
 Don't leave me bleeding alone

 I finally feel like I'm supposed to be, yeah, oh
 Don't you take this moment away from me
 But before you kill me won't you
 Won't you look back in my eyes and watch me

Bleed out
 I gave it all
 But you can't stop taking from me
 And way down I know
 You know where to cut me
 With your eyes closed
 Bleed out
 It won't be long til my heart stops beating
 So don't leave me don't let me bleed out here alone

 Hear my plea

 Bleed out
 I gave it all
 But you can't stop taking from me
 And way down I know
 You know where to cut me
 With your eyes closed
 Bleed out
 It won't be long til this heart stops beating
 So don't leave me don't let me bleed out here alone

Is this thing still on?

 Does anyone even blog anymore? I remember when it first got started and everyone was having a blog. I like writing, and I do a lot of it in my professional life, but not everything makes it onto this blog, which is where a lot of my personal thoughts come out. I put more into Facebook lately, too, because it's a little easier. But there's something to be said for this long-form writing exercise, and I think I will continue here periodically. You don't mind, do you? Well, in my last post I wrote about how difficult things were for me at the time. That changed in July when I finally got a job working for the State of Utah. I was the program manager for the moderate income housing database program, and that meant I worked from home a lot but also went in to Salt Lake when needed, mostly on the train. It was a good experience, for the most part, and I'm grateful for the things I learned even in the short time I was there.  In October I started working for Weber County in t...

The Other Art

I'm not sure we appreciate photography as much as we do other art forms. Part of this comes from the reality that surrounds and permeates a photograph - it's very, very real, and the photographer strives for clarity and crispness in the representations. Perhaps this is why black and white images continue to be relevant - they strip away extraneous information (color) and leave us with something that is at once familiar and also non-existent - for nothing exists in black and white. Nothing. I also think that pictures are becoming too common-place... Everyone has a camera in their pocket, and while that's a very democratic thing (everyone can express themselves in a picture easily and readily, and can find an audience for these images, which are casually taken and casually viewed, and perhaps just as casually forgotten) I think that we embrace that casual attitude, and it spills over to all aspects of the media, making it impotent. So I read this article this morning: h...

A Romantic Encounter

Him (tears in his eyes, heartbroken): I want you to know that I love you, that I'm sorry for my weakness and frailties, and that I will try and do better. I think I am doing better than I was before, and I just want to please you and make you happy. I am very grateful for your continued patience as I try to be the kind of man I want to be. Her: You need a haircut. It's getting a little long.
