It's May 1st. Today was supposed to be a very special day, but alas that is not to be. This is the first time during all of this that I have felt the touch of "what should have been". It's not that I didn't understand or empathize before now with everyone that had to miss something important to them because we NEEDED to put our lives on hold. I totally did. This is just the first real sense of sad I've felt. I can't say I didn't know it was coming. I absolutely did. But I don't really think you can prepare yourself for that sense of loss no matter how big or small. So, today will be a sad, keep yourself occupied with crafts and work, write your feelings, and also a mind your mouth because your filter isn't properly set, kind of day. These times have despite it all, lead to some amazing times filled with magic, love and laughter & I could not be more grateful for the family and friends that exists in this world with me. Don't worry, if you're the worrying type. I know exactly how to find my happy, precisely how to find joy in the tiniest things. My world is filled with all the love I want and need. I'm going to listen to my friend's music and relax knowing that oneday we'll stand in the same place, say hello and share a big hug and a shitton of laughter. See you Sunday @ Quarantine O'Mally's James! Until then... #gratitude #lovelifeandfriendship #illgetby #illthrive #thelittlethings #thebrighterside #hope #coronatime #quarantineomalleys Oh and food. There would have been food! There still is food. 🤗 https://www.instagram.com/p/B_pgTo-nPoX/?igshid=1qocfmu40rd6i

I’ll Get By EP comes out TOMORROW!!!

I used to listen to my life, I was so put together, I chose what I wanted to be in that age of chasing sand, the age of believing in everything, but I couldn’t save you, I couldn’t save what was taken away, and I’m still singing, and you still can’t stay. You “loved life,” and those words have lasted, I just wish I would have had ears for more than what you said because I still feel the lack long after. Such a light body, such a quiet gait leaving behind the weight of the world, I’ll always think it was too early to lose your shine, I guess the means that ends us means nothing, I just hope it’s the peace we all need, Because I could love and drown in your God damned smile lines, but I think I burnt up watching you rallying to stay alive, and I guess that’s fine. It seems we all get sick, we all die in some no name hospital with the same colored walls, and I guess that’s fine, but I want to swallow, I want to stomach, I want to live. It’s been a rough while and some days are worse than others, there’s no proper way to feel, no mirth, no levity, no amazing grace, just a flame on a lake floating away, I can’t let you lay, I want you to know, I’m learning patience against my will, I want you to know, I’ll get by, always barely scraping with just a hunger, with just a heart apart, it’s a hell of a thing.

Because I could love and drown in your goddamned smile lines!
