Waiting

Well, because I didnt have some anecdote or something like that related to the picture I decided to post a poem I wrote one day this year when I was a little depressed (well.. my sister helped me to finish it and to making it better) jeje.. I hope you enjoy it!.

Waiting For You

Tomorrow comes, tomorrow goes.
I'm still waiting on my toes.
Holding every breath, not thinking twice.
Time goes so slow, it never flies.
I'm just waiting to hold you again.
I pray it will happen, but I don't know when.
You're so far away from me.
I hear your voice in my head, but your face I can't see.
I'm holding on with all that I've got.
my body's growing weak, but my heart is not.
I cry myself to sleep wondering where you are.
I wonder if you're wondering about me, looking at the same bright star.
heaven knows we are meant to be.
no one else will ever complete me.
you are my heart, my soul, and everything in between.

The Little Prince

"Over the years, I came to know a great many grownups. My opinion of them never improved. In time, I stopped showing my drawing, and never again mentioned boa constrictors, elephants, or stars - instead, I would talk about golf, money, politics, and neckties, and everyone was pleased to have met such a sensible man."


Nowadays our values are so distored that everybody thinks that everything matters is money, politics or playing a stupid and insulator sport and they forget about the real important things in life: like playing with their kids, having fun with friends or just siting and enjoying nature.
Because of this an technology, imagination at the time of creating games or even making some homework, is just dissappearing.
So, once for all, we have to say STOP and realize what we are doing to OUR world, we have to see that we are distroying it! What future do we want for our children?
We, supposedly, dont need to have someone else to say to us what we have or dont have to do, but apparently, without that person we will never improve.
This is what I really admired from "Antoine de Saint-Exupery", that he choosed an influenciable character that would be a sort of heroe for children and an example to follow for old an young people.
I think that from now on we have to start imitating this brave author that could say the truth about what is happening now without any fear or prejudice.

Hi!

Well... today I was looking at my blog and I realized that I haven't introduced myself to everybody..
I'm Valentina Viola Mirande and I am 16 years old..
I come to Saint Patrick's School, but only since last year: before I used to go to Saint John's School (since I was 4)
I definetely really like this school and I am not regretfull of my change jeje..
I like doing sports, I used to play hockey (I have practised it for 12 years) but three months ago I gave up. Now I feel a little bit sory because I earn a few kilos, but whatever..
I think it's time to talk about my family, which consits in my dad, my mom, my brother, my three sisters and I. We are really close and we love to spend some time together, but always and when is not so much time, because we get fed up a bit with us jeje..
Well.. I think that's everything for today. I hope you enjoy reading something about my life and I wait not to have bored you too much..
See you!..in my next post! Love.. Valecita! :P

My name's poem

Vicious

Aambicious

Lazy

Encouriging

Nervious

Talkative

Intolerant

Naive

Apprehensive

The them presented in the songs "Tears In Heaven" and "The Last Song"

The theme presented in "Tears In Heaven" is the desesperation of a father who lose a son. In this song he, the father, is thoughtful becuase he doesen't know how would be life if he dies; he wants to know if his son would recognise him and if it would be the same: I was realy touched by this song because a year ago my auncle and my aunt lost their 5 months's kid.. it was realy shocking for all the family, but specially for them (their dream was to have a son, thay have had already 4 daughters) It was horrible, so I understand Eric Clapton a lot, obviously is not the same but I know something.

Tears In Heaven

Would you know my name

If I saw you in heaven?

Would it be the same

If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong

And carry on,

'Cause I know I don't belong

Here in heaven.

Would you hold my hand

If I saw you in heaven?

Would you help me stand

If I saw you in heaven?

I'll find my way

Through night and day,

'Cause I know

I just can't stay

Here in heaven.

Time can bring you down,

Time can bend your knees.

Time can break your heart,

Have you begging please,

begging please.

Beyond the door,

There's peace I'm sure,

And I know there'll be no more

Tears in heaven.

Would you know my name

If I saw you in heaven?

Would it be the same

If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong

And carry on,

'Cause I know I don't belong

Here in heaven.

In "The Last Song" the main theme is the fact of how supportive a boy feels by his father. He thought that he would never accept him because of his situation: he was gay. But then he noticed that he was completely wrong, that it wasn't like that. He realized that he misjudged the love between a father and his son, and that his father understand him and love him a lot: well.. I have a friend who is homosexual, It was too difficult for him to tell his BIG secret to his father, he was realy frightened, he didn't know how he would react. It wasn't the same to what happened to John Lennon, his father was a little bit judger and didn't accept him a lot, but well let's say that they are surviving.

The Last Song

Yesterday you came to lift me up

As light as straw and brittle as a bird

Today I weigh less than a shadow on the wall

Just one more whisper of a voice unheard

Tomorrow leave tha windows open

As fear grows please hold me in yor arms

Won't you help me if you can shake this anger

I need your gentle hands to keep me calm

'Cause I never thought I'd lose

I only thought I'd win

I never dreamed I'd feel

This fire beneath my skin

I can't belive you love me

I never thought you'd come

I guess I misjudged love

Between a father and his son

Things we never said come together

The hidden truth no longer haunting me

Tonight we touched on the things that we never spoken

That kind of understanding sets me free

'Cause I never thought.... (Chorus)

The fact in common in both songs is that the tow of them talk about death and in both the son is the one who dies or is dying. In "Tears In Heaven" the one that is talking is the father and in "The Last Song" is the son the one that sings the song.
