Updated "I'm Lovely" #newsong #war #doubt #lorijeanfinnila #singersongwriter #podcast #alternativelifestyle

 I updated this song where a lot of people are feeling doubt and wars.

I found a way to make life longer by walking around the park where I live even though at times I struggle physically to walk. This is where this song came from.

"I'm Lovely" song lyrics

Verse

My long dress falls to the ground 

Dragging on the dirt 

I'm still part of the the earth, the land

Grime on my face 

light around me dim, 

Unfortunately dark my every day

For now maybe, just…..

Chorus

Goodbye long hanging ugly limbs 

That almost touch me in my every step 

Even though I'm blowing thru the wind like leaves 

The sun fights it's way to me

Telling me how lovely I am

Verse

You can sit here someone says to me

Sound waves come thru the cars to my ears

Petals on the ground all around in my view 

I can tell by the people around me

there’s no more than this right now

Chorus

Goodbye long hanging ugly limbs 

That almost touch me in my every step 

Even though I'm blowing thru the wind like leaves 

The sun fights it's way thru the trees 

Telling me how lovely I am

Verse

The oak tree twists my mind 

Bright colors take my attention 

Stars sparkle above 

Though I don’t feel it

Bridge 

I walk under a bridge bowing to me 

above my head as I walk thru

dark, Mucky my world

That almost touches me

In my every step

Chorus

Goodbye long hanging ugly limbs 

That almost touch me 

In my every step 

Even though I'm blowing thru 

The wind like leaves 

The sun fights it's way thru the trees 

Telling me how lovely I am

I’m lovely

I’m lovely

ooooooooo

oooooooo

"I'm Fading Away" Lyrics

It's all dying down now

narrowing,

it's all quieting

in my body

Chorus

I'm fading away into obsolescence

into the cosmos

of the totality of me

I ache as I stretch

as far as I can

from this agony within

misery is never too far

Verse

I wake up with the sting again

waiting for tenderness

I find myself on my back

looking up at the ceiling

I feel my body elevating

Chorus

Verse

Is there any stature to this

Am I now prestigious

A different caliber, quality

I've turned into macrocosmos

Bridge

Is there any dignity in this

will I die in grace

mortality

my extinction from annihilation

Chorus

I'm fading away into obsolescence

into the cosmos

of the totality of me

I ache as I stretch

as far as I can

from this agony within

misery is never too far

I’m fading away

ooooooo

repeat

My Memorial Day Poem #lorijeanfinnila #newpoem

Bitch, bitch in a lonely place 

You laugh at me

I can hear you from afar

You did win though 

Chased me away

Now I walk looking for another place

I see men tilt when they walk

Dented cars

Music I'm unfamiliar and uncomfortable woth

Let's see how far I go

I see a man with all his belongings

Including his trash can

It's small, silver 

And probably fits everything he wants

Another woman sways by

Perhaps to get attention

She did 

She got mine

Many people tilt in this  direction

I'll turn around

How far should I go on my own

Perhaps to the school

Where I always run

Where I know there’s safety

And familiarity.

(That’s when I stopped because I saw the roses.)

 Song Lyrics

Verse

I walk this morning

To keep my body up

Moving, strong in my mind

Life seems so long when I do this

Chorus

There's no reason not to try so hard

There is no diagnosis in life

It's what we lead 

What we do

Living on the edge of death

Verse

Eventually I'll ride across the sky in a tram

To my favorite hiking path

Through the woods with its deep, twisting turns

of isolation in it's hills

Of closed off destinations 

That I scare to deep in my insides

But feel more life

I need that old camper

To attach to a car that I'll pull

When I'm sure I can see

With my mace and bear spray

So I can reach the farthest edge of death

To show people I can make it

Chorus

Verse

I still have a list of things to do

I tire to in my mind

That I can't hold for long

Bridge

Get up and walk

Ride the height car

Hike that same old path that I can

So I can say I made it

I have to make donuts

I don't worry I'm gonna die so soon

It's my next step I look to

It all makes sense

Make donuts

Ride that tram

Make that hill

I will not die

Breathe 

I can make it

One more time

At least in my mind

Chorus

Verse

But I know each step I take 

In this cold breeze

Will lead me to the next step

On the edge of death

So I can

Make donuts

Ride that tram

Make that hill

I will not die

Breathe 

I can make it

One more time

At least in my mind

I can’t believe how successful I feel just waking up earlier in the morning to be outside. I’m completely taken back by that. I was able to write one song outside this week because of this.

I Turn My Head to Cry

Verse

You popped up unexpectedly 

Were the same as what I’d seen

I came out quick, a bit cold

Chorus

I turn my head to cry

I’m not used to being

Spoken to so kind

Verse

I kept telling you everything 

Negative about me

You said honey

I should let you go you’re tired

Chorus

Verse

I said I need no man

I like to be alone

I won’t get undressed on a first date

Will  sleep around if I’m cheated on

You said hun thanks for being so polite

Bridge

I say you go to bed too late

I go in early

I’m going blind

You say you haven’t found the right guy 

I lost my baby due to a bad man

He says I have a daughter called Jane

Chorus
