one week until a fresh start

[miss_amneris]

Okay, so I'm really not usually one to post song lyrics on my LJ, but I was in the bathtub, soaking in some bubbles and listening to Flavors of Entanglement tonight and for whatever reason, the final track really hit me. Leave it to Alanis to take me out of myself for a moment.

Incomplete
One day I'll find relief
I'll be arrived
And I'll be a friend to my friends who know how to be friends

One day I'll be at peace
I'll be enlightened
And I'll be married with children and maybe adopt

One day I will be healed
I will gather my wounds forge the end of tragic comedy

I have been running so sweaty my whole life urgent for a finish line
I have been missing the rapture this whole time, of being forever incomplete

One day my mind will retreat
And I'll know god
And I'll be constantly one with her night, dusk and day

One day I'll be secure
Like the women I see on their 30th anniversaries

I have been running so sweaty my whole life urgent for a finish line
I have been missing the rapture this whole time, of being forever incomplete

Ever unfolding
Ever expanding
Ever adventurous
And torturous
...but never done

One day I will speak freely
I'll be less afraid and measured outside of my poems and lyrics and art

One day I will be faith filled
I'll be trusting and spacious, authentic and grounded and home

I have been running so sweaty my whole life urgent for a finish line
I have been missing the rapture this whole time, of being forever incomplete
