might too sweet to share




while i was listening to my ipod,
this song, i've not heard for long, started playing.

i don't know why, but it makes me almost cry, everytime.
that is, it's almost singing about us, you know

it says like this....





you see me at my weakest
but you take me as i am

i get mad so easy 
but you give me room to breathe

you pick me up and brush me off
you tell me i'm okay

all my troubles, all my fears
dissolve in your affection

you offer me a softer place to land...

(sarah mclachlan)



i say, i was thinking these days or years, several times
why we met and are now here
how should we go along
did something make me change or
am i just looking for something that i can never get
sometimes i think over and over, maybe too much

but it reminds me how much i owe you,
i've so much to thank you

and it's the day before your birthday.
is it just a coincidence? 

hope you get along with me a bit longer
thanking you...

happy birthday





ipodを流していて、偶然
ひさしぶりに聴いたのだけど
この曲を聞くといつも
なぜかこみあげてきてしまう
あまりに自分のことのようで




本当をいうと、ここのところ自信がもてないこともしばしば
それはあまりにつきつめて考えてしまうからかもしれないけれど
なぜこの出会いがあって、ここまできたのか
これから先も こうやって歩んでゆくのか...


けれどこの曲を聴くと
感謝せずにはいられない
どれほど違いがあろうとも
やはり私を支えてくれているのだから


そして明日はあなたの誕生日
そうだった、これは本当に偶然だろうか

いつも使ってすりきれてしまったからと
今年も頼まれた ごわごわした革手袋だけでなくて
ちゃんとプレゼントを用意しておいてよかった

まよいながらも、やっぱりもうしばらくは
こうしてあるいてゆくのだろう

いつも辛抱づよく
エラそうで、わがままで
マイペースなわたしに 
寄りそってくれて 
ありがとう

    1. dear xenia,
      thank you so much for your warm message.

      i was ashamed, thought should not share,
      might be too personal, private thing.
      but just wanted to write how this music moves me...
      happy to know you feel close to these, sometimes.
