Crowded House- Don't Dream It's Over

One great everlasting classic with such great music and lyrics! I think it was remade recently but nothing can beat this original piece. One of my all time favorites! Enjoy!

State of Mind

I am in the inside looking out
Prisoner of an endless doubt
Lost between a million notions
Of calm rivers and wild oceans

Frustration

Without further ado, here is a list of things that I find so frustrating:

1- I get an sms when I am asleep or taking a nap and before I open it I pray for few seconds that it is a personal or important message but it turns out to be from the bank or the phone company reminding me to pay the bill!

2- I have just fell asleep and my phone rings once and I check and it is a missed call from those stupid people located in Africa who manage some God knows what businesses!

3- My favorite team Argentina plays so well in the tournament and then reach the final and lose to the below par Brasil!

4- Someone tells me that there is something going on and then says no I can't tell you the details! Why did you tell me from the start if you are not willing to elaborate when I didnt even ask??!!

5- I am on vacation and I dream about math 102 (most of the time) and that I am being late to exam and no matter what I do I can't reach the university on time! The reason is that I skipped many classes for that course more than any other and I barely passed it! So I guess it is still haunting me :(

I am sure there are more but I can't think of any to add!

Through the Barricades

If I to ever to cry while listening to a song, this song will be one of the songs that make me cry :P

It is a classic!

Lyrics

Sleepless Night

Oh sleepless night
With my demons I fight
With no sword or shield
My bed is the battle field

Cover oh my sweet cover
No sweet dreams of my lover
My pillow knows my fears
And it swallows all my tears

The night is so silent and dreary
And even though I am bleary
I can't find a way to sleep
I can't find the tears to weep

So soon the sun will shine
And brings peace to this heart of mine
And ends this sleepless night
And I will lose my hopeless fight

Hands

I have listened to this song before but never bothered to read the lyrics! Now after I did, it turned out to be a great song. It is dedicated to those good people
around who have been hurt and are kind enough to worry about others getting hurt too :D

Press for lyrics

Reflection

The reflection on water
The blurred image of me
Takes me back
Makes me remember
Makes me stand still
And wonder
Living life like a pretender

The reflection of me

In your eyes
When you steal some glances
It sets me free
It is the way I want to be

Foolish Games

I feel she is singing about me being the mysterious one :P

Wet Wet Wet - Don't Want To Forgive Me Now

The Perfect Crime

Ok! Finally I think I am ready to commit the perfect crime! Watching those famous crimes shows like all versions of CSI, Criminal Minds, NCIS, a little of Killer Instinct, Psych and Monk and reading Agatha Christie's books made me aware of what a mistake can a murderer make, of course other than the murder itself. I am going to watch over my DNA, fingerprints, footprints and car tired prints! I am going to watch over the car paint or I better not use any car! I won't even have a motive! I will kill someone I don't even know so that no fingers will be pointed at me. Now I have the plan ready and all I have to do is to find the right victim :D Enough of all this evil fantasy of mine and let me talk a bit about these shows for those who don't know them!

CSI or Crime Scene Investigation: There are 3 versions of this show and each is located in a major American city. The original is located in Las Vegas and by far is the best. The 2nd is in Miami and the 3rd is in New York. The shows deal with crime scenes and evidences more than with human beings.

Criminal Minds: A relatively new show where in contrast to CSI it primary deals with profiling of criminals and sometimes even victims. The agents analyze the criminal and come up with the characteristics that fit the crime so they can identify him or her.

NCIS or Naval Criminal Investigative Services: This show deals with crimes related to the American Navy and Marine Corps. It deals with both, evidence and the human factor and the agents are funny! You've got to like DiNozzo!

Killer Instinct: Which only lasted 1 season unfortunately! It deals with unusual and brutal crimes in their nature.

Psych: A new show that I have enjoyed very much! It is about a guy who's father is an ex-cop who has powerful observational skills and impressive detective instincts and tell the police that he is a psychic and help them to solve crimes. He and his partner opens their agency and call it Psych. I am waiting for 2nd season now!

Monk: Even though they show the criminal most of the times in the start of the episode, I still enjoy watching it! Monk is an Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) detective who manages to solve the unsolvable crimes God knows how! Sometimes he really pisses me off specially when he needs to wipe his hand after shaking someone else's hand :@


Of course there are many other shows like Crossing Jordan but I am not that into it since I don't like the cast that much! Jill Hennessy has a bad voice! There is also Bones which I still don't understand how can they know that much about someone through a small bone in the body??
There are the classics like Murder She Wrote and Columbo (the bad thing about it is that they show the criminal in the start of each episode)!

What Is Left!

I have just finished this poem! I started writing it longer than I can remember and just finished it tonight after I felt that I should finish something!



What Is Left

What is left is a picture on the wall
With a frame about to fall
A few strands of your hair
On a hairbrush lying somewhere
The empty bottle of your perfume
And a plant that was never destined to bloom
A trace of your scent left on the bed
And an old pillow that used to sleep beneath your head
A memory of our last dance
Where every star in the sky had a glance
A silent vision that runs within a gleam
What is left of you is just a distant dream

8- I don't like to use this smiley ":)" at all when I am chatting. I think it is a pale smile and indicates something wrong when it's used!

The Long Road

Here is a new poem that I actually finished sometime ago!

The Long Road

It is just you and me in a long never-ending road
Carrying nothing but our dreams
It is a long journey, and a heavy load
And the road grows longer as it seems

Here we stand alone in the middle of nowhere
Surrounded by walls of emptiness
Right in between hope and despair
I know we can come through, we can escape this wilderness

Hand in hand, let us follow the light
It will lead us so we shall never go astray
And save we will be, from all the spite
That was planted all over our way

Two Hearts

Enjoy my latest poem! ;)

Two Hearts

It is a poem written in blood
For romance has come to an end
Two hearts lost in the flood
Two hearts impossible to mend

Stories of love we have read before
Where most have been a success
Two hearts broken and nothing more
Two hearts were beating in a mess

Lovers come and lovers go
And time does not wait for anyone
Two hearts they did not know
Two hearts they were; and now they are none

Cold and Sleepy

Does anybody else feel cold and sleepy when feeling down and depressed?
