Allow me to remember where I am, before I open my eyes.

Allow me to remember where I am, before I open my eyes.


I fell asleep this lazy afternoon with music quietly playing in the background of m.y room.

I had been laying in bed, reading, and closed m.y eyes for a moment....

The Eagles were playing when I hazily began t.o wake. The music had m.e fooled , in m.y half asleep state....

I thought I was napping with the Hippie, something we would do on a lazy day off as I would often stay up late with him when I visited, watching the sunset on Lake Michigan, making fun of movies well into the night while slowly getting<b> drunk.

</font></b>There was always music quietly playing while we slept.

When I didn't feel him pressed up against me, his arm resting on side, I felt behind m.e....

And then I remembered.

I opened m.y eyes while Stevie Nicks sang Leather and Lace.... And briefly missed the Hippie for just a moment.

That would be nice.... I don't think that is in my future, though. I'm unlucky in love.

    good memories with songs that take you back

    the eagles, fleetwood mac, great lyricists & music

    reminded me of this

    my fave song by "the xx"

    If you get a chance, please watch the official utub video by the band. you'll see three different groups of people highlighted as the verses are sung. Subtle changes occur as the song progresses

    an extremely creative story

    The xx - "Islands"

    I don't have to leave anymore
    What I have is right here
    Spend my nights and days before
    Searching the world for what's right here
    Underneath and unexplored
    Islands and cities I have looked
    Here I saw
    Something I couldn't over look
    I am yours now
    So now I don't ever have to leave
    I've been found out
    So now I'll never explore
    See what I've done
    That bridge is on fire
    Going back to where I've been
    I'm froze by desire
    No need to leave
    Where would I be
    IF this were to go under
    It's a risk I'd take
    I'm froze by desire
    As if a choice I'd make
    And I am yours now
    So now I don't ever have to leave
    I've been found out
    So now I'll never explore
    So now I'll never explore
I loved it.... Perfect for this post. I watched the video a few times.... I don't think it's three different groups of people, I think it is only one. The characters move around in the group, always sitting in a different spot, the sad looking curly haired guy is pining away for the female dancer....

    Once while napping I felt my Ex spooning me with her arm around my chest, and I scootched back into her. A couple of hours later I woke up and remembered that she had passed.
That is so touching.... I'm sorry to hear that she has passed.

Yes it is. It always takes me a bit to fully wake, so much stuff happens in my mind during that time.

    I took a nap this afternoon myself, LOL. But i was sandwiched between 2 dogs that I refer to as my kids. I have to have something on to break the quiet.... either music or TV (which is currently on in the other room with X-men 2 playing) I know how you feel tho..... memories of certain moments.
It just felt so real.... That still kind of bothers me a little.

    Yep... I can imagine that feeling. Sounds smooth and comfortable.
    I keep music playing on the side quietly. it's a nice vibe.
    Yep.
It was very easy to be around him.... I do miss him. He just wasn't good for me.
