Just Because

I feel like writing today.

Lately, it is this tune that has me captivated.

Strike up the band let it play
Love songs to haunt me and I will stay
But when it comes to a waltz
Both words and music will ring false

For you waltzed in and spun my world
Around in dizzy dance I swirled
But suddenly you waltzed away from me

Those violins, they must go
So no careless hand with a bow
They play on the strings of my heart
And make me remember how lovers part

How you waltzed in and spun my world
Around in dizzy dance I swirled
But suddenly you waltzed away from me

Strike up the band let it play
Whatever it chooses and I will say
Play me a waltz if you will
I'll sit here and listen,
Waiting until

My love returns to take my world
And spin it round in dizzy swirl
Where girl loves boy and boy loves girl
And feet don't touch the ground

I thought of posting because I need some place to vent my frustrations.
I don't need to tell anybody about it, and I don't need any advice. If I did, I would have called somebody.
I just need to take it out on this keyboard, better than taking it out on the pot that may crack on the stove, or the door whose glass panels may shatter.

My reaction from tomorrow should no longer be of anger or irritation. It shall instead be that of resignation. If this is the way things are meant to be, perhaps that will be more appropriate.

I have learnt that without expectation, there is no anger or sense of unfairness. Instead, I must accept things as they are, and continue as best as I can.
