Thin Air

And I know s/he’s reached my heart… in thin air

Pearl Jam… just has a knack for reaching right in and getting to the heart of my Matter. Sometimes I wonder why I bother to use my own thoughts at all. At least I know why I sometimes have to take a (rare) breather from listening to them; it’d be like attempting to swim to the bottom of the Ocean otherwise. *pop*
(You feel me?)

Been feeling the air currents shift; something fresh and new and smells good is coming in from West of here.

Been noticing it for a while now. Been feeling it against my skin.

Seems like confirmation when I learned a dear friend is moving back to Montana, to Missoula… Because I can’t help but feel that’s where the thread is coming from. How awesome that I’ll have a reason to go to Missoula now, and often. ?

And I know he’s reached my heart… in thin air

True Connection… It is a powerful and rare thing. Reaching out for it, takes strength and courage. It is not easy to find, even less easy to hold. Yet once grasped… there’s nothing like it and nothing else will suffice.
“I still try to run on towards All or None… All or None.”

Still… in the meantime, have to just breathe in the thin air.

There’s a light… when my baby’s in my arms.
There’s a light… when the window shades are drawn.
Hesitate… when I feel I may do harm to her.
Wash it off… cause this feeling we can share.

And I know she’s reached my heart… in thin air…

Byzantine… is reflected in our pond.
There’s a cloud… but the water remains calm.
Reaching in… the sun’s fingers clutch the dawn to pass.
Even out… it’s a precious thing to bear.

And I know she’s reached my heart… in thin air
Yes, I know she’s reached my heart… in thin air

It’s not in my past to presume…
Love can keep on moving in both directions.
How to be happy and true…
Is the quest we’re taking on together.
Taking on… on, on, on, on…
Taking on… on, on, on, on…

There’s a light… when my baby’s in my arms.

And I know she’s reached my heart… in thin air
And I know she’s reached my heart… in thin air
Yes, I know she’s reached my heart… in thin air

Yes, I know she’s reached my heart.
