It's not always about me but it is certainly not always about you. After all what do you have to do with this anyway? What is that makes you think that it's about you to begin with? Is there something on your mind that you care to share? Tell me. I am listening. (Smile)
These thoughts are often metaphors for life and/or symbolic of situations that were not communicated. Communications that turned out to be assumptions of what was or should have been but turned out to be unexpected. Un-expectations that encouraged thoughts, growth, temptation, prayer, curse words and sometimes tears. It was good, bad, strong, weak, passionate and sometimes lacked ambition with determination. It wasn't always the greatest but it was a moment needed and a lot of times it hurt so good. I could point a finger and say it was your entire fault but that is not necessarily fair to me. After all it's not always about you. Or is it?
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?
All the tings said and done and reacted. All of the situations that changed people not always by choice. It turns out that they are not who you think they are and / or presented themselves to be something totally different. After all we have all done something or someone that we shouldn't. We have been in a place of resentment, hurt, pains, frustration and complete confusion. Times when there was nowhere to turn but up or nowhere to fall but down. We have had moments when there were things left unsaid, undone and untold. Things that were packed away and packed neatly in closets full of our other skeletons that we hope no one finds in our secret hiding place. These secrets sometimes hold us captive and we are unable to loves, like, care or embrace something or someone. The keep our attention focused on the negative and spread insensitive and judgments into the universe. It is easy to point fingers when your situation is on blast or your skeletons are visible. What is that something you do not want anyone to know or see? Who is that person that you don't want to know a little something something about you from your past or that something that helps you make it day by day? We all have that something that holds a moment of regret and a lifetime of guilt whether it's public or not. It doesn't feel to be the one that put a damaging to their livelihood or their process of interaction with others. You change their train of thought to an extent and you have to live with that situation or the thoughts and moments for the rest of your life.
So you wanted to know if I was talking about you or does this refer to you? What you think when you read it? Now how does it make you feel?
