Romantic Torment

Beauty of the diversity in souls. Beauty in all its endless wonders to be found in this world and universe. These remain the foundations of my serenity and sanity. As for the rest? Heh….

Where do I go from here? I’m in Love with you, and I don’t even know who you are yet! Matters of the heart plague me unrelenting, and lately I’ve been altogether tired of it. Loathing around in some cesspool of sorrow and disappointment, over not having this or that, was my old way of co-existing and dealing with it. Now, I’ve a numb indiscreet neutrality perspective to it all. “It is what it is,” and, “what will be will be,” attitude about some of the things I cannot seem to directly influence or change, no matter how hard I’ve attempted or tried.

It seems counter-productive to waste my energy on matters outside my immediate control. So, for now, I continue to bide my time and focus on myself. Just …know I’m out here…waiting for you. With so much love to give. Till then…. *closes eyes and listens to Mortal Love (music band)*

Eternally,
Romantic Torment

I almost forgot the captivating allure creativity brings to my soul. I nearly gave it up, and practically denied myself of it for so many years. Countless ideas lost upon a sea of ignorance and procrastination, yet I do my best not berate myself too much for it. And, while distractions remain, I’m getting better at letting nothing detour me from this over-whelming urge to share and mingle – with anyone that may wander here.

I must admit a sense of pride has been instilled in me. Ahh! To finally have a place to organize, collect, and share my creativity; it only provokes within me the desire to create more and more! It truly is amazing what each of us is capable of achieving, when we dismiss the distractions and excuses we often fall prey upon.

Now, with the time I’ve invested to explore this site’s presentation and optional plug-ins, I am excited with the prospect of spending more time adding and creating new content for it. I hope, as time progresses, that many more will come to enjoy their visit here. Perhaps, even my own creativity will inspire their own!

So it is that the comforting darkness once again blankets my soul, and whispers to my heart; bidding me to create anew what once was, and reflect upon all the beauty that is its’ art. I hope to convey a sense of hope within a seemingly hopeless world, and that for a moment one may feel they’re not so alone. Blessed be you beautiful shadows of the night. I remain eager to hear from you.

Eternally,
Romantic Torment

I heard this song a few times before on the radio, and how it made me feel this morning was no different: I found it impactful, meaningful, and straight from the heart. This is one of those songs that makes me step outside of the norm of what I typically listen to, and makes me thankful that I have such a diverse taste in music. If you keep an open mind it can really inspire a reflective moment, or two, or many. From a romantic perspective, most of us can relate to it from some experience in our life – past or present.

Case and point, I found the lyrics profound and the performance top notch. The song required a singer that could convey the necessary emotion this song deserves, and Elliot (the singer) does exactly that throughout the song. Without his sincere conviction through vocals, I wouldn’t of been as enraptured with it as I was while listening to it. It’s another song for the “love song list,” and I hope you take my recommendation to hear it.

Song: Wait For You
Artist/Performed By: Elliott Yamin

I never felt nothing in the world like this before
Now I’m missing you
& I’m wishing that you would come back through my door
Why did you have to go? You could have let me know
So now I’m all alone,
Girl you could have stayed
but you wouldn’t give me a chance
With you not around it’s a little bit more then i can stand
And all my tears they keep running down my face
Why did you turn away?

So why does your pride make you run and hide?
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it’s a lie what you keep inside
This is not how you wanted to be

So baby I will wait for you
Cause I don’’t know what else i can do
Don’t tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life

Baby I will wait for you
If you think I’m fine it just ain’t true
I really need you in my life
No matter what i have to do I’ll wait for you

It’s been a long time since you called me
(How could you forget about me)
You got me feeling crazy (crazy)
How can you walk away,
Everything stays the same
I just can’t do it baby
What will it take to make you come back
Girl I told you what it is & it just ain’t like that
Why can’t you look at me, your still in love with me
Don’t leave me crying.

Baby why can’t we just start over again
Get it back to the way it was
If you give me a chance I can love you right
But your telling me it wont be enough

So baby I will wait for you
Cause I don’t know what else i can do
Don’t tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life

Baby I will wait for you
If you think I’m fine it just ain’t true
I really need you in my life
No matter what i have to do I’ll wait for you

So why does you pride make you run & hide
Are you that afraid of me?
But I know it’s a lie what your keeping inside
That’s not how you wanted to be

Baby I will wait for you
Baby I will wait for you
If it’s the last thing i do

Baby I will wait for you
Cause I don’t know what else i can do
Don’t tell me I ran out of time
If it takes the rest of my life

Baby I will wait for you
If you think I’m fine it just ain’t true
I really need you in my life
No matter what i have to do I’ll wait for you

I’ll Be Waiting.
