Lift

 Page 1532



What a fun time it was yesterday.

Cant remember the last time I went to the beach. The strong saltwater air. The breeze. The mesmerising sight of the sea.

I dipped my feet into the waters and was brought back in time.

Back then, my family would frequently have beach outings. With my relatives too.

It was nostalgic. Those carefree times. Wonder where all that went.

I went with my colleagues. Bought nasi lemak and had a little picnic.

And one of them.. I saw right through her.

Even though she had a brave front up, I could see it clearly.

She was grieving.

And I understood completely.

Going to the places they had once visited.

And reliving some.. moments.

We cant go through everything by ourselves.

That's why we need a lift sometimes.

Surrounding yourself with happiness. Eating good food. Beach walks. Things that make you happy.

Overwriting the old memories associated to personal moments with new ones.

And just.. facing it.

The cold hard truth.

I feel for her.

And I empathise, completely.

Love, Eran.

Current Song Mood: JoJo - Lift 

Bluebird in my window
I wonder if she knows why I'm doing this again
Which way the wind blows
Oh, I got pretty far
Now we're back in the dark
Mm
It could be the season that came out of reason
And it's breaking my heart
Got too close to my demons
Can't do it myself
Think I need something else

So can I get a lift?
Gotta get somewhere other than this
Breathe a little fresh air
And after some reflection, I can't get there on my own
I need a lift
Mm

I keep meditating (Keep meditating)
UV on my skin (UV on my skin)
Go through all of the motions
But they're not getting in
Wrote my own prescription
But it just doesn't hit (It just doesn't hit, just doesn't hit)

So can I get a lift?
Gotta get somewhere other than this
Breathe a little fresh air
And after some reflection, I can't get there on my own
I need a lift
Mm
Something's gotta give
It's always bad weather
It's no way to live
I wanna get better
And after some reflection, I can't get there on my own
I need a lift
Mm

Bluebird in my window
I wonder if she knows that I'm doing so well
That I got myself help
So if you're feeling low
Don't be hard on yourself
