I was raised by a family that abused me mentally and raised me in a cult like environment. By the time I got the strength to leave and be on my own as a young free women it was a feeling of EXCITEMENT I don’t think I’ll ever be able to describe. I just jumped in my green jeep turned on the white lights and drove.
It was my first chance to dive into the “wilderness” or “the world” outside of my cult. I moved through a lot of towns to figure out who I really was. I was trying to leave all the negativity behind without any real support or guide. I did anything and everything that brought me any type of exhilaration. Any type of feeling that was once repressed I choose to explore.
It wasn’t until my mid twenties when I met my boyfriend, that I realized I wasn’t just living my life freely all along. Subconsciously before him I wasted a lot of time abusing drugs, and getting into trouble whenever my “upbringing” would come into “the corner of my mind” . I basically waged a war within myself.
Overtime by being in a supportive relationship with him I no longer focus on “the corner of my mind”. Instead, I find myself getting lost into him, and him into me “ I even catch myself revisiting the ideal of unconditional love again. The type of love I never experienced with my real family. He’s been so supportive and influential to me. He “raises me up to watch me grow” like I’m his queen. His very own cleopatra. Moreover, each day we’re together, we keep building each other up like a symbolic brick house.
Personally, It’s been a long time coming for me, a long time running away from love. But now that I’m with him I finally feel at home. As far as family goes, from a second time around, he’s the only love I ever knew. “ God knows I’ll be ready to say YES should he get down on one knee.
@hearingtruely I think you nailed it! I see so many people trying to decipher the artists meaning in a song and it is nice to know that, to possibly get to know an artist better, but for me, the amazing lyric, or the chord, or the riff, that makes us feel something is the true magic of music. your interpretation may be totally different than writers, but I bet the intensity of feelings are equal. Congratulations on your find!
