hey jude

So, I've really failed at my "fifty-two weeks" project. And to think I wanted to do a 366? Ha! School is crazy this semester. Craaaaazy. I feel like I say that every time I blog. But it's the truth. So here are some old pictures. I was going back through old Facebook profile pictures and really liked these.

 

So do three old pictures make up for the lack of a new one? I think yes. :) I did have time to write a poem, though! There was much rejoicing! 

Unto my eyes and to my heart
A word of wisdom I must impart:
Life is not a perfect sea,
Not tossed about by storm or breeze.
It is a tempest, raging at best,
Pushing, driving, unto its death.

That hazy vision of glass, depart!
Do not darken the hopes of my heart.
Frail and thin your argument lies--
Though sought after by human eyes!
I wish your visage would shatter and see,
You are not all you are cracked up to be.

So I’ll stay in my rags and not glance upon
Your lies of a life lived fast and strong.
Perfection does not your beauty make,
But chaos is my life to take.
So here I’ll live so quietly,
Content and oh so happy to be
The sole desire of my Savior’s eyes.
In His grace is no man despised.

Katy

two of fifty two: poems and pictures

Miles, like flowers, wither away.

Each step brings me closer

To your smiling face.

Tomorrow I'll see you,

Today I will wait

Here in the silence

For your warm embrace.

So come in your car,

And I'll walk down the street.

My pace will match 

Your pounding heartbeat.

This distance is hard,

To that I'll admit.

I often wish to talk and sit.

But someday will come

When we're together at last.

You'll hold my hand,

And we'll laugh at the past.

 

Part two of fifty two, poems and pictures. 

I get to see my boyfriend tomorrow, hence the sappy poem. :) This photo was actually taken a few weeks ago, but I've had no time to do anything creative this week, thanks to school. Besides, I absolutely love that picture. So it gets to be photo numbero dos. :)

Well, I'm going to eat some Ramen and go to bed.

songs for a rainy tuesday

School is back in session! Today has been a pretty easy day--all I have on Tuesdays is Advanced Oral Communication and tennis. It's a nice, lazy, rainy day. The songs above are ones I've been listening to a lot lately. Quite a few of them were suggested by my boyfriend. I don't have much time for hunting down new music anymore, so he keeps me updated as far as music is concerned. The song "Everything is Alright" is actually pretty old, but it's one of those songs that I feel was written for me personally. Simon and Garfunkel, as well as Nickel Creek, is a constant in my life!

This weeks 52 weeks submission!

 

Well, I'm off to supper and a basketball game!
