Angel's Little Patch of Heaven

[BRIGHTWELL]

I'm off today! Thought I would stop in a shake a few trees. Does heaven have trees? Tall towering pines?

 

[The_gladiator]

Pretty sure it has anything you like.

 

[BRIGHTWELL]

Ok....that would be good. I'll take my leave for now. Be back later.

 

[havinfun50]

Accepting the proffered beverage from Brightwell as I life my head from my scribbling, "Thank you Blackwell, I see you're in a chipper mood this evening."

I take a sip and gesture toward the piano, "Well Glad my good man, as long as you're channeling emotion into a song... play us a song, you're the piano man, play us a song tonight, we're all in the mood for a melody, because you've got us feeling alright."

 

[The_gladiator]

He nods and begins to play

Can you hear my voice
Where you are?
When I'm without you
Every moment falls apart
I'm a burned out light in the dark
In my empty shell I am calling out

I've lost my faith,
Lost my way
It's all so far away

What have I become?
Can't face the morning sun
Just save me
You're the only one
Who can pull me out
Save me from myself
Just save me
Just save me

Pull me closer to you
I can't escape this
Emptiness I fell into
Caught in a shadow
I can't see through
I'm nothing without you

What have I become?
Can't face the morning sun
Just save me
You're the only one
Who can pull me out
Save me from myself
Just save me
Just save me

Lost my faith
Lost my way
I need to feel you here again
Just save me

From what I've become
Look what I've become

I bleed for you
I bleed for you
I bleed for you

What have I become?
Just save me
Can't face the morning sun
Just save me
Now I'm screaming out
Save me from myself

What have I become?
You're the only one
Who can pull me out
Save me from myself
Just save me
Just save me

Clapping... Well done sir. I've not heard that song before, it's good.

 

[Angeleyz]

Oh dear, looks like I was so busy noodling I missed the concert.

Hope everyone has had a good start to the week.

 

[havinfun50]

Hey Trouble! *Giving her a warm hug and a buss on the cheek* I was just getting ready to call it a night. Glad I was able to catch you first. My first day back was a bit hectic, but I guess not totally unexpected, and yours?

 

[Angeleyz]

Hey partner... Have a headache that just won't respond to anything... Pain in the... head!

 

[havinfun50]

Ohhhhh those are no fun.... I'm very sorry to hear that. A good night's sleep should help though.

 

[Angeleyz]

Yeah, but it's a full moon (or just about) and my son always sleeps weird on such nights. You'd think he was a flippin' werewolf. But here's hoping...

 

[havinfun50]

Don't mock... I swear the weirdest stuff happens during a Full Moon.

 

[Angeleyz]

Don't mock... I swear the weirdest stuff happens during a Full Moon.

Oh I know it does... Just wish it wouldn't choose MY house to do it in. Well... Nah, never mind...

Update: okay, I can't think straight anymore. Headed to bed. Sweet dreams.

 

[The_gladiator]

"I'm back, real life demanded my attention. glad you liked he song HF, sleep well, sir."

He turns back to the piano and begins to play Change tomorrow although he can't find the piano version on youtube

years
There's a light up ahead
It's calling
(It's pulling me closer)
Reborn within
Now I'm shedding my skin
It's falling
(The weight off my shoulders)

Cos I can't stay
Chained to my secrets.
No I can't stay.
I'm bound by my regrets.
I can't erase
All of my errors;
Those days are gone forever

I can change, I can
Change tomorrow
I can change, I can
Change tomorrow

On my knees in the rain
With my head hung in shame
Just crawling, stalling
(All alone in my ways)
Memories I can't erase
Faces I couldn't face
Haunt me
(My life lay to waste)

Cause I can't stay

Chained to my secrets.
No I can't stay.
I'm bound by my regrets.
I need a break,
It's now or never.
Yesterday's gone forever

I can change, I can
Change tomorrow
I can change, I can
Change tomorrow

For all the years of emptiness
For all of my mistakes
For all the years I've
Thrown it all away
It's not too late

For all the years I've thrown it all away
(Those days are gone forever)
I can change, I can
Change tomorrow
(For all of my mistakes)
I can change,
I can change,
I can change
Before it's too late

It's not too late.

The song is haunting, but still tinged with a note of hope the others lacked.

 

[havinfun50]

Chuckling and nudging the halo polish a little closer with my elbow.

 

[The_gladiator]

Oh I know it does... Just wish it wouldn't choose MY house to do it in. Well... Nah, never mind...

full moons can actually affect some people. The pull of the gravity is enough to make the tides, do people actually think it can't affect them?

goodnight Angel

 

[havinfun50]

Well Ms Angel, it's time for me to hit the sheets. No more short weeks for a while so I need my beauty rest. I'll see you tomorrow. *kissing her cheek as I make ready to leave* Sweet Dreams.

Update... Goodnight Glad.

 

[Wolfias]

I make my way into the Patch after a very long day hear the final chords from a guitar and see Glad with a new comer to the patch sitting by a new piano.

"Evening Glad, your playing sounds particularly inspired this evening. missmaddy," extending my hand in welcome, "it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm HF. I see you've been in good company."

Making my way to a chair to hammer out some replies before Angel get's too comfortable in her nana state, I lift my head to call out to Wolfias' corner. "Congrats on you nana's Wolfias, and if you're lucky you get to be there over and over as the replies come in.!"

Lifting his glass to his ol' buddy, Angel, Glad and Maddy with a happy grin, kicked back with his feet up in his dark corner.

''Thanks ol' buddy, but my writings been...In the timeless words of the Chairman of the board. During the wee small hours, when everyone is fast asleep. So there's very few quick replies to my posts. I'm sure you'll have nanners dancing in line like the Rockettes anytime now.''

 

[Angeleyz]

Holy frijoles! Over three hours to get to work is ridiculous!

 

[Wolfias]

They should have just called everyone and said don't come if it's bad out. That is if it's weather related, was it?

 

[The_gladiator]

what sucks is when companies act like you should have been there on time and don't allow for weather delays... I've seen some make you use pto for that time. just how I'd want to spend my pto, driving to work. Unless someone was giving me road head in the traffic jam, its not like its a vacation...

 

[The_gladiator]

He wonders in and sits down sipping some tea, "Evening all."

 

[Angeleyz]

*wanders in to stake a claim on her favorite chair beside the fire, hoping to be back after the kids are in bed and a nightcap is in her hand after the events of the day*

My co-writers just about ganged up on me again and I'm late, late, late!

"Yup, and owe me a pm still." he teases her giving her a quick hug. "Sorry your day was rough."

 

[havinfun50]

I pop in having finally finished up for the evening and make my way to the bar waving to Glad and seeing Angels Notebook and pens stacked upon her chair.

"Evening Glad. How goes it sir. Did you miss Snopocolapse or did it get you too?" I mix a drink and look up with a carafe of juice in my hand, "A juice for you sir or something soft?"
