blast from the past

There are too many things happening for me to be coherent about this post. Its a Saturday and I have a deadline by tonight. I will spill my heart when I can afford to do so (never thought I'd have to say that in my life). But an incident a few days back, left me emotionally charged. I am reminded of this one song that I'll use as a proxy, for the shortage of time and for keeping the emotion alive.

Where were you when I was burned and broken
While the days slipped by from my window watching
Where were you when I was hurt and helpless
Because the things you say and the things you do surround me
While you were hanging yourself on someone else's words
Dying to believe in what you heard
I was staring straight into the shining sun.

Lost in thought and lost in time
While the seeds of lifeand the seeds of change were planted
Outside the rain fell dark and slow
While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime
I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the moment had arrived
For killing the past and coming back to life.

I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the waiting had begun
And headed straight..into the shining sun.
