 The Front Door-Valerie June

your search for that pitch perfect lifestyle,

your search for the perfect life partner,

your search for the perfect, perfect selfie, the photograph,

your search for the perfect social media shams,

the search for that free exquisite travel tickets

the search for fortune,

the search for power,

the search never ends, does it?

mum says, “life’s imperfectly perfect; it makes you want more, that gives you purpose, the dawn, the dusk.”

Wildfire – Mandolin Orange

love is not a choice,

you can’t force love.

 

love’s not a dream,

it happens with eyes wide open, taste of heart mouthful

emotions ever so gold, feelings ever so true.

 

love’s an echo,

it finds it way.

it comes back.

 

love’s a wildfire,

it spreads.

Eyes On You – Ed Patrick

i am looking for you.

i am not looking for the ones with plastic handshakes, the replacables,

mouth full of advice, hands full of vices,

sick arse attitude, hollow platitudes,

quotes and suggestions,

shit talks and crap guts.

…

…

you see, i am looking for real souls.

Miradors (HOST Remix) – Solomon Grey

i will show up out of the blue,

i’ll borrow some of your time. asked.

all i ask is, you be with me nothing asked.

 

we will talk about everything,

fearless, be us both unprepared, be us both rusted, with trust.

we’ll open up like parting clouds,

be us both with grudges and doubts

we’ll spill like sands of stars,

with no finish line, no boundaries that divides.

…

…

that’s the only how,

we’ll be friends for life.

I’m Lost Without You – Marlon Williams

Running Late.

I was heading for work.

She calls me.

Wishes me, “Happy Belated Birthday Babu!” (In Nepali)

Adds the most sincere, “I LOVE YOU, at last, after she had sobbed her heart out for having forgotten my birthday.”

This is my granny.

My first love, as I call her time and again.

The lady who took me with her before i even knew who my mom was.

The woman who raised me with utter love and care — the one who pet-named me

‘kancha‘.

Sing For The Moment – Eminem

you reveal too much about yourself by writing real shits —

matters otherwise profoundly personal, risking to be judged.

you don’t talk at all, you enjoy the beauty of solitude and silence and peace —

and they complain, they put you aside, and you get judged anyway.

one way or the other, you are the tasty biscuits dipped in their tea talk, and a charge-free salt to the dinner served.

so, remember, you have always been free, you always have a choice to be.

Ms. Fat Booty – Mos Def

she likes him,

she won’t tell.

she loves him,

she can’t ask.

 

he is like the blowing wind, the shooting stars,

fresh, free, wild, wooing, thrashing, speaking.

he is the one,

who can maker her heart beat mad ,

the one who can make it lull.

 

she dreams about him,

she can’t let slip.

she want to scream his name,

she can’t explain, express. she fakes. she’s helpless.

Oceans (Acoustic Version from Osea Island) – Seafret

the greatest distance between you two

is the silence,

is the ego,

is misunderstanding.

Talk!

Swim Good -Frank Ocean vs. Portishead + Gavin Castleton

good sleep.

mixtapes.

nice food on the table.

roof over the head.

gripping books, beautiful family.

kick-ass friends, plenty money.

wild dreams, earned sweat.

dirty boots, true love.

green pastures, still water.

brewed coffee. pens. papers.

singing birds, floral, butterflies.

what more?

why more?
