five six seven eight

People are beautiful aren't they? They inspire you to be all you can be and they make you feel like you're worth someone's while.

On the flip side they can make you feel like you're not worth anything at all.

So which is it? The notion of love is wrought is opinions and superficiality. Sometimes you aren't in love and you convince yourself that you are and that you can't live without someone. But how do you really know and do you have to validate yourself to those that you call friends? I don't think so and yet it is these 'friends' who look at you and see the change and without thinking they pass judgement on you. And sometimes it's the worse feeling on earth. That suddenly the people you thought you could trust are just looking at waiting for you to fall. What then loves? What then?

Love begins to look like a Five String Serenade. Perfectly flawed but perfect in that way. Love is an emotion that is hard to express. Infatuation is an emotion often mistaken for as love. Sometimes caring about a person enough to want to know how they're doing can be mistaken for either of the thoughts. And sometimes you can't tell which of the 3 it is.

This is my five string serenade
Beneath the water we’ve played
And while I’m playing for you
It could be raining there too

This is my five string serenade
Beneath the water we’ve played
And while I’m playing for you
It could be raining there too

And on my easel I drew
While I was thinking of you
And on the roof of my head
In came my five string serenade

His is my five string serenade
Beneath the water we’ve played
And while I’m playing for you
It might be raining there too

And on my easel I drew
While I was thinking of you
And on the roof of my head
In came my five string serenade

This is my five string serenade
Beneath the water we’ve played
And though I’m playing for you
It might be raining there too
This is my five string serenade
