Had the first weekend in ages to myself and man, I think I've grown too comfortable in my room because now I am actively missing it. Part of me wants to fall sick so that I can stay home and out of this suffocating haze.

Oh well, now's the time to plug in my little orange portable speaker and listen to all the music I've downloaded over the weekend. I must've uploaded about 100 new songs, but there's one that I keep repeating.

I've been sharing this video and song on multiple social platforms, including urging some friends via text message to check it out. I feel it's a crime for people not to hear this song and feel the same rushing waves of emotion fill up their hearts.



On the night, that we met
You told me you wanted something more from me
And it was all that I could do
I remember your face, like a child
The way that you blush; the way that you smile
But now it's all that I can do, and I wake up feeling new
There's so much more I never knew

So I think about the years spent alone
It's like you're searching for something, to make you feel whole
Like you're half of something else
Like you're half of something else
Just a fraction of yourself

Don't take it so hard, we did what we could
There were no easy answers to be understood
And it was all that we could do
We're the only ones who knew
And now all that I think about

The way that you scream
The way that you cry
The way that you wipe your eyes and fall against my side
The way that you told, told me I was wrong
And the way that you sing, when you hear a song
And the way that you answer, when you knew I was gone
Now I know that I'm blind, but you're all I see
And yeah I know it's not clever
But I just want you with me

I'm only half of something else

The melody just makes my heart sing along. And the words. I don't know if I feel like just a fraction of myself and that I need someone to make me whole, but I love how the lyrics make me feel small yet significant at the same time.

Like the world is enormous and limitless, but if I am half of something else, it means I exist. In a way I'll always be half of something else, regardless of whether I find it or not. I believe it's out there, and I may never find it, but it's comforting to know that I am not alone. I'm part of this world.

P.S. You don't have to understand what I'm saying, because I do. And that's enough for now.
