she always wears yellow

The heat today is suffocating, and a thick haze of summer has descended on the city. its making me feel lethargic [and due to the rubgy this morning i wish that i could be doing nothing in the sunshine]

listening to: the cd my lovely boyfriend gave me yesterday
"Because when she acts like herself
I swear that she outshines everyone else
But shes been feeling alone
And nobody's fine on their own
Don't you know

And shes been wearing gray
Without a thought of change
And I've been desperately
Trying to make her see
That even when it rains
The sun is still ablaze
And right now in the dark
She is my shining star"

the big pink

Happy spring! Happy monday! the weather is glorious in capetown today, which is probably why my "work" day has morphed into a lie-in-the-sun-and-read-day.

Tomorrow is baking day. I am really excited. It's been way too long since my house was graced with the presence of cupcakes. [the following cupcakes are for P&N. you are lovely]I woke up to Florence&the machine- how perfect? It makes everything feel more like spring.

It's been a difficult weekend. tough and sad.[G, come home soon. so I can remind you how lucky I am to have you]

As soon as I love her it's been too long
Talks of future with you caves me in
Swallow my sugar kiss and eat it alone
Hearts get light and smash any dreams of love

Three words we shared said too early on
Stuck with forever float upon a tear
Swimming with the fear where we slowly drown
Ending at never arching melody

As soon as I love her it's been too long
And I really loved breaking your heart
These silver apples will shine on I was wrong
The hottest love has the coldest end

who watches the watchmen?

Stay with me to guide this dream
before they bury me.
I'll be waiting up all night for you
in a nightmare that was made for me.

it's cupcake monday and i'm not going to post pictures of cupcakes. Instead this post is for pix [just because I miss you] the quote underneath reminds me of you- maybe its because this is what we have done together [&what i want to spend more time doing with you]

In the dark they watched us from here beyond the grave.
To bare the mark of His work are the Watchmen of our ways.
That which we feel untrue, if it's me then it isn't you.

in other news: its less than a week until I leave for Durban [researches 'simple and painless ways to break your leg'] also, today i watched the watchmen. Goodness, you're going to have to ask G what I thought of it- although I do agree that the soundtrack was amazing.[kidding]

What you thought once was yours is ours now.

goodnight. sleep tight x
