Its Funny How The Greatest Inspiration... (memories, song, Hang)

Yeah, fucking girl problems again.

Its Funny How The Greatest Inspiration Comes From The Greatest Sorrow

Around two bodies, a vulture hangs in the air, like a desert funeral lifting its black wings, and I see this all, yet I stand rooted below not knowing which way to go.

Upon the left, I see my old lover - willing to try again and on the right my new love, a songbird ever so sweet but the vulture is going to dive fast, and the wind has come sooner then I expected.

And I whisper confused words, a stumbled prayer, can't I save both? No, time is of the essence and I go through the memories, all hurt and love and I think, that this vulture better fly south, I know its not a surprise, I saw the bird in the distance, the weather may be unpredictable but I felt the wind on my thumb hours ago.

Now I watch, staring in awe, so fucked and confused, torn between two hearts.
The vulture dives.

i like this. it's a different tons. new images besides the really awesome romantic setting nature provides. but i'm a little confused on what this gathering is for. is it an actual funeral? if so, who for? why are these peopel gathered there? is this not happening in real life? is it in his head? is a funeral metaphor for the potential life changing decision between the two women? if so... why isn't there a counter side to the funeral, why is the only option a "vulture diving in to reap the rewards of your death" ? just some q's. if anything, it made me think and it wasn't expository love like your other stuff.

But thats more just, like how a vulture goes over a dead body...its not really a funeral but I just thought it sounded cool. =P
