I sing to Myself
for those of you who missed it (how could you possibly?) I'm singing all the time. whatever song pops into my head, I sing it, hum it, whistle it.

especially when I'm just walking or biking around. alone.

This evening, I had a bit of a revelation. I know why I sing to myself. contrary to popular belief, it is not to be annoying, nor is it because I'm nervous, or can't stand quiet. no. I sing, because no one sings back. for those scant of you who have seen David and Lisa, it reminds me a bit of Lisa. Lisa rhymes at people, and it isn't until someone rhymes back to her that she can begin to manage. I feel like my rhyming is in song- like I'm waiting for someone to come along who will just finish the song with me- not because I've taught it to them, but because they simply know it. I'm looking for someone to come along with the guts and the interest to sing along.

But I can't find them.

so I sing, and I whistle and I rhyme. it would be whimsical, were it not more deep than that. and that's why every song I sing has meaning- because whether I feel it or not, it's me searching.

Looking
for someone to sing the song with me.
