Conversation Among The Ruins

No Love, No Glory…No Hero In Her Sky…

January 18, 2007 · 1 Comment

I wrote something else to go with the following song by Damien Rice, but at the last moment didnt publish it. Maybe wen i muster enough courage i wud publish it.

I was thinking abt wat Ashi had told me wen we parted our ways. He had said tht i was young n tht in no time i wud be over him. It’s 2 years now. I am still not over him…I wonder wat might his advice be now.There’s no love there certainly is no glory. 4 i believe glory comes to those in love…

(Stupid idea!!!, i know) 

But i certainly lie wen i say or claim to be over u.If the truth be told I dont wanna get over u, Ashi. I never ever do….

I think u r too deeply embedded in my heart n soul to be so easily dislodged.As they say a gurl never forgets her first love. I dont think myself to be a tragic heroine whose fate had played cruel games with her. For i knw there r hundreds may thousands maybe millions of ppl who have heartaches.I dont consider to be unique.I am just one of those unfortunates who had loved n lost…Just wanna say tht whoever is in love, pls pls pls take care of this precious feeling. U all donno how lucky u all r tht u have ur love returned. Dont let petty mis-understanding to come in bet u n ur beloved. they r not worth.

 Dont let love go by…..Dont let life pass u by… 

I think this experience has done me  some good. It has made me more sensitive to other ppl’s feelings n emotions. Anyways i am sorry . I didnt mean to be sermonising u all out here. All the best to u all .

“And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can’t take my eyes off of you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes off of you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes…

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We’ll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower’s daughter
The pupil in denial

I can’t take my eyes off of you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes off of you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes off you
I can’t take my eyes…

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can’t take my mind off of you
I can’t take my mind off you
I can’t take my mind off of you
I can’t take my mind off you
I can’t take my mind off you
I can’t take my mind…
My mind…my mind…
‘Til I find somebody new”

-Damien Rice “The Blowers Daughter”

    i think u are right, there surelly aint no glory. it suks, when u think the studies showed something like in a yaer and a half or so love will pass, and you wait hoping to see the result, and still nothing. hope in the passed time u managed to pass over it. all the best!
