Will you make it sound so pretty even when it’s not? Didn’t choose but it’s the only one we’ve got And sometimes I get so tired Of getting tied up in my thoughts You’re the only one that often makes it stop God, it hurts to be human Without you I’d be losing And someday we’ll face the music God, it hurts to be human But I’ve got you, you, you, you, you, you, hey And you’ve got me, me, me, me, too Like we’re buckled and preparing before the crash Like we’re walking down a road of broken glass Now if we defeat all odds And it was us against the world You can count on me You know I’d have your back God, it hurts to be human Without you I’d be losing And someday we’ll face the music God, it hurts to be human But I’ve got you, you, you, you, you, you (Hey) And you’ve got me, me, me, me, too But I’ve got you, you, you, you, you, you (Hey) And you’ve got me, me, me, me, too Hope flows away If you could spend a day in my shoes Your mind would change If you’d known what I’ve gone through We want the same (Yeah, we do) Maybe then you’ll understand How it hurts to be human God, it hurts to be human Without you (without you) I’d be losing (Yeah, yeah, yeah) And someday we’ll face the music God, it hurts to be human But I’ve got you, you, you, you, you, you, hey And you’ve got me, me, me, me, too But I’ve got you, you, you, you, you, you, hey And you’ve got me, me, me, me, too Oh God, it hurts to be human
MY 2Cents This song speaks to me right now. There is no reason why I have been dragging ass and miserable this week. The cold came back, the laptop died, I have responsibilities that I usually enjoy…But this week… I just couldn’t stand to be human. I was snapping at people over stupid shit. And I know it was stupid. I have no reason or explanation. Just cranky. And I can’t explain it better that this week felt that I was struggling in the fight to be happy…and I was loosing. So for those that have me, and wondered what the heck was my damage…I thank you. I love you all. Thank you for tolerating my bad week.
The week has started badly with my laptop dying. I have lost a few files (Google drive back up got a lot of it…) And I am just over it. Forgive me please for the lack of update that is likely to be this week. I will be trying to get it handled, but I am going to take a couple of days getting the desktop computer that was not prepared for the writing and publishing set up. Then I will try to get it back on the proper track. I will squeeze the grief for the part of my soul that was attached to the dead laptop later.
I am taking a break from coffee house writers. This is my last post there for a while. Though there are some awesome writing on there, and I have quite a few friends on there… I felt like this last poem should stand alone. Please continue to read the work there. The writers are doing some amazing work.
The last two years have been so busy. And I am finding it hard to keep up. When I started with Coffee house writer’s I was easily able to keep up with the schedule I was on. But I have since started doing more here and with Fae Corps. We are doing more in Fae Corps. I am floundering under the weight of the responsibility… So I have made a decision. I am leaving Chw for now. I have already told my wonderful editor. There will be one more post next Monday. Then… I think that I will try to post here more. I am hoping that releasing one responsibility will ease the burden of the rest.
