sweet nothings....

i am sure you have had a song or a quote stuck in your head for hours...how about two words for about 3 days now...i heard it one night as i was drifting off to sleep...it was soft and beguiling...sweet nothings sweet nothings sweet nothings...it sent chills over me...it thrilled me...it danced through me...in my head all day...all night...in journeys it pops in and when i am driving...a soft chant in a womans voice...yet it is just out of reach...i cant tell who it is...it is a whisper into my soul...and it is like it has been said to me already...but i cant remember who or when...as if remembering would make me sad...but hearing it only makes my heart leap up now...i dont mind it being there...chanting as it does...it is a happy spell...

i journeyed to it but all i got was a blink of a pattern i cant translate into meaning...yet there it is...rising up in my heart again...sweet nothings sweet nothings sweet nothings...and i am so close to remembering...why would it be painful to remember something so gentle...

today i paint...i will let this feeling drift through me...maybe i will remember you...or maybe i will let the good of it ease through me in these stretch of hours...letting the sad edge of it smooth away...

  1. Whoa!!! This is so trippy... Last week out of nowhere I started belting out a '60's oldie, "Sweet Nothings", by Brenda Lee. I owned the 45RPM and dedicated the song to Ray in our Newport Daily News, under a weekly category called "Teen Scene".
    "We're sitting on the front porch... hmmm... sweet nothings~"
    "Well do I love you, of course... hmmm... sweet nothings~" ........ How about hearing 2 words, sweet nothings for a week now.
