Rosie's Lullaby

She walked by the ocean,
And waited for a star,
To carry her away.

Feelin' so small,
At the bottom of the world,
Lookin' up to God.

She tries to take deep breaths,
To smell the salty sea,
As it moves over her feet.

The water pulls so strong,
And no-one is around,
And the moon is looking down.

Sayin',Rosie - come with me,
Close your eyes - and dream.

The big ships are rollin',
And lightin' up the night,
And she calls out,
but they just pass her by.

The waves are crashin',
But not making a sound,
Just mouthing along.

Sayin', Rosie - come with me,
Close your eyes and dream,
Close your eyes and dream,
Close your eyes and dream.

Choking and Stumbling

Wow, I actually started a blog. Why did I start a blog? I really don't even know. Perhaps because I have so much to say, and nobody to say it to. My boyfriend doesn't enjoy philisophical banter. My mother is busy. My sister lives five hours away. So, I have resorted to the dim glow and familiar hum of you, my dear laptop, to be invisible ears.

That being said... where should I begin? Ha, this is where the awkward silence would come in.
Well, I can tell you right now my life is one hundred percent composed of chaos. My boyfriend and I just this past week moved out of my dad's house and are now living with my mom. (My dad is a cocaine addict and alcoholic) My mother and I are going through a court battle with my dad next month to revoke his right to see my little brother and sisters, due to his drug abuse. I am taking heavy courses this fall in school. My mom is depressed and I constantly feel the need to help her, somehow. I only wish for her happiness. My boyfriend is jobless, again, due to a misdemeanor he got three years ago for burglary. My best friend moved to Canada, and I feel like my world is crumbling without him. My bank account is in the hole... big time.
However, I did finally find a job and my first day is Sunday. :)

Ugh. Well, more thoughts later. This is simply a prologue, so, dear laptop, brace yourself.
