Lana’s book Violet bent backwards over the grass is found here: https://fi.pinterest.com/pin/653584964703876494/

The New York Times bestselling debut book of poetry from Lana Del Rey, Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass.“Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is the title poem of the book and the first poem I wrote of many. Some of which came to me in their entirety, which I dictated and then typed out, and some that I worked laboriously picking apart each word to make the perfect poem. They are eclectic and honest and not trying to be anything other than what they are and for that reason I’m proud of them, especially because the spirit in which they were written was very authentic.” —Lana Del Rey

Harjaannuta sydäntäsi – Sana rakkaudesta

Harjaannuta sydäntäsi näkemään, sillä se on suunniteltu aistimaan enemmän kuin luuletkaan.

Vain rakkaus näkee ihmisen sielun syvyyden rauhaan oli pinnalla mitä myrskyjä tahansa. -K.J.R

Olen tehnyt Sana rakkaudesta sovelluksen facebookiin ja nyt lisäsin yllä olevan oman ajatukseni sinne, sekä kuvan johon olen lisännyt Photo Bucketissa kauniin kimaltelevan ruusun. Joskus runoilen ja mielestäni tämä ajatus ei ole hassumpi joten laitoin tuonne sivulle. Ajoittain lisään sinne laittamiani aforismeja, runoja ja laulunsanoja tänne blogiini. Olen nyt liittänyt muihinkin ajatuksii osittain ‘korjailemiani’ kuvia joissa on sydämiä ja glitteritekstiä. Tällainen tekeminen on niin hauskaa! =) Hope u enjoy these words and pics too!

˙·٠•●♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥●•٠·˙ Onnen kahle kultainen, lämmin loiste rakkauden.
Ihanin tunne ihmisen, sydän on löytänyt sydämen. ˙·٠•●♥ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ ♥●•٠·˙

.♥. Rakkauden ensi huokaisu on järjen viimeinen.
-Antoine Bret .♥.

Rakkauden voima näkyy siinä, että se yhdistää ihmiset joilla ei ole muuta yhteistä. – Markku Envall ❤⊹⊱⋛⋋ ⋌⋚⊰⊹ ❤

(Tähän kuvaan lisäsin sydämet ja tekstit)

Onni on rakkaudessa, missä sielut
sulautuvat toisiinsa ja sydämet
ymmärtävät toistensa kieltä.
– Kahil Gibran –
❤❥❤❥❤❤❥❤❥❤

(Tämän kuvan tein yhdestä kuvasta ja lisäsin kaikki sydämet ja muut animet)

Rakkaudelle annetaan aina anteeksi sen aikaansaannokset siksi ja vain siksi että se on rakkaus. – Lope de Vega ✥✤✦✥✤✦❤❤❤✦✥✤✦✥✤ ✥✤✦✥✤✦❤❤❤✦✥✤✦✥✤

(Tähän kuvaan lisäsin kaikki animaatiot ja pusun ja tekstit)

Nyt saat salaisuuteni.
Se on hyvin yksinkertainen:
Ainoastaan sydämellä näkee hyvin.
Tärkeimpiä asioita ei näe silmillä.

Tässä alhaalla on myös yksi mun ajatus jonka inspiraationa oli tämä kuva jota muokkasin myös:

(Lisäsin tähän kuvaan kaikki animaatiot ja glitter tekstit)

Vaikka rakkaus tuntuisi joskus arpapeliltä, kaikki todennäköisyyslaskelmat kaatuvat tosi rakkauden tieltä.
Kun tunne on vahva ja sydän kummallakin pelissä, on voitto myös yhteinen. ♥♤♣♢☷❤❤❤☷♢♣♤♥

(Lisäsin kuvaan perhos- ja sydänanimaatiot)

Ei ole mitään suurempaa
kuin tuntea kuuluvansa yhteen
toisen kanssa.
Rakastaa ja olla rakastettu.
Jakaa yhdessä elämän ilot ja surut,
pitää huolta toinen toisestaan.
– George Eliot 1819-1880 –

Rakkautemme on kuin tihkusade,
joka putoaa pehmeästi

Niin rakkaus lohduttaa
kuin sateen jälkeen päivänpaiste.
– William Shakespeare –

Ylenpalttinen rakkaus merkitsee
ylenpalttista elämää,
ja ikuinen rakkaus merkitsee
ikuista elämää.

Watching every motion
In my foolish lover’s game
On this endless ocean
Finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn around and say

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Watching I keep waiting
Still anticipating love
Never hesitating
To become the fated ones
Turning and returning
To some secret place to hide
Watching in slow motion
As you turn to me and say

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Through the hourglass I saw you
In time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed I called you
And turned to hear you say
If only for today
I am unafraid

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Watching every motion
In this foolish lover’s game
Haunted by the notion
Somewhere there’s a love in flames
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn my way and say

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I have inside
And you took my love
You took my love

Didn’t I tell you
What I believe
Somebody say that
A love like that won’t last
Didn’t I give you
All that I’ve got to give baby

I gave you all the love I got
I gave you more than I could give
I gave you love
I gave you all that I have inside
And you took my love
You took my love

I keep crying
I keep trying for you
There’s nothing like you and I baby

This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love

When you came my way
You brightened every day
With your sweet smile

Didn’t I tell you
What I believe
Did somebody say that
A love like that won’t last
Didn’t I give you
All that I’ve got to give baby

This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love

I keep crying
I keep trying for you
There’s nothing like you and I baby

This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love
This is no ordinary love
No ordinary love

Keep trying for you
Keep crying for you
Keep flying for you
Keep flying I’m falling

I’m falling

Keep trying for you
Keep crying for you
Keep flying for you
Keep flying and I’m falling
and I’m falling

Here comes the rain again
Falling on my head like a memory
Falling on my head like a new emotion
I want to walk in the open wind
I want to talk like lovers do
I want to dive into your ocean
Is it raining with you

So baby talk to me
Like lovers do
Walk with me
Like lovers do
Talk to me
Like lovers do

Here comes the rain again
Raining in my head like a tragedy
Tearing me apart like a new emotion
I want to breathe in the open wind
I want to kiss like lovers do
I want to dive into your ocean
Is it raining with you

So baby talk to me
Like lovers do

Here comes the rain again
Falling on my head like a memory
Falling on my head like a new emotion
(here it comes again, here it comes again)
I want to walk in the open wind
I want to talk like lovers do
I want dive into your ocean
Is it raining with you

Can you tell me, softly
How you’ll always haunt me
Can you help me
Hold me
Come to me now, slowly
You caress me, smoothly
Calm my fears and soothe me
Move your hands across me
Take my worries from me

I will sacrifice
I will sacrifice
All I have in life
To clear my conscience

I will sacrifice
I will sacrifice
All I have in life
Sacrifice, sacrifice
Can you feel me, solely
Deeper still and wholly
With your understanding
And your arms around me
Can you help me
Hold me
Whisper to me, softly
Move your hands across me
Take my worries from me

I will sacrifice
I will sacrifice
All I have in life
To clear my conscience
I will sacrifice
I will sacrifice
All I have in life
Sacrifice, sacrifice
I will sacrifice
Will sacrifice
Will sacrifice
Will sacrifice

I will sacrifice
I will sacrifice
All I have in life
To clear my conscience
I will sacrifice
I will sacrifice
All I have in life
Sacrifice, sacrifice

Something is said, it sits in my head
It’s been there too long, it’s killing me slow
It’s rolling around, it’s pushing me down
It’s keeping the good part of me closed

Can’t you see that when I find you, I’ll find me

Oh I need you to know today I’ll wait for you always
Oh I need you to know today I’ll wait for you always

My only weakness, is knowing your secrets
and holding them close, and hold them tight
I know the way to silently make you
smile with my eyes, when you’re trying to fight

Can’t you see that when I find you, I’ll find me

Oh I need you to know today I’ll wait for you always
Oh I need you to know today I’ll wait for you always

Cause when I find you, I’ll find me

Can’t you see that when I find you I’ll find me

Oh I need you to know today I’ll wait for you always
Oh I need you to know today I’ll wait for you always
Oh I need you to know today I’ll wait for you always

When I find you…
When I find you…

…I’ll find me

Madonna Bedtime story & Nothing really matters

Lyrics:

Today is the last day that I’m using words
They’ve gone out, lost their meaning
Don’t function anymore

Let’s, let’s, let’s get unconscious honey
Let’s get unconscious honey

Today is the last day that I’m using words
They’ve gone out, lost their meaning
Don’t function anymore

Traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, to the arms of unconsciousness
Traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, to the arms of unconsciousness

Chorus:

Let’s get unconscious honey
Let’s get unconscious
Let’s get unconscious honey
Let’s get unconscious

Words are useless, especically sentences
They don’t stand for anything
How could they explain how I feel

Traveling, traveling, I’m traveling
Traveling, traveling, leaving logic and reason
Traveling, traveling, I’m gonna relax
Traveling, traveling, in the arms of unconsciousness

(chorus)

And inside we’re all still wet
Longing and yearning
How can I explain how I feel?

(chorus)

Traveling, traveling (repeat twice)
Traveling, traveling, in the arms of unconsciousness

And all that you’ve ever learned
Try to forget
I’ll never explain again

Madonna Nothing Really Matters Lyrics:
When I was very young
Nothing really mattered to me
But making myself happy
I was the only one

Now that I am grown
Everything’s changed
I’ll never be the same
Because of you

Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me

Looking at my life
It’s very clear to me
I lived so selfishly
I was the only one

I realize
That nobody wins
Something is ending
And something begins

Nothing takes the past away
Like the future
Nothing makes the darkness go
Like the light

You’re shelter from the storm
Give me comfort in your arms

Rakkauslaulu/Love song

A beautiful song “Rakkauslaulu” = “Love song” by Johanna Kurkela. ♥

Tein tämän videon, kuvat internetistä, kiitos kaikille  jotka ovat tehneet nämä kauniit kuvat. ♥

I made this video, the pictures are from internet. Thank you who ever made these beautiful images. ♥

Lyrics in finnish:

Kauan sitten minussa
aavistus jo sinusta
Silloin tuntemattoman
tunnen nyt ja tunnustan

Sä olit vaara liian suuri kiertää
ja liian houkuttava ohittaa
En tiennyt kuinka kaikki voisikaan niin palaa, polttaa

Kaksi niin hehkuvaa ja kaunista saa kirkkaana loistaa
Kunpa auringon päivät päällämme ei päättyisi koskaan

Kauan sitten jotenkin
tuntematta aavistin
että illan harmaassa
tulet vastaan pelotta

Jos joskus pimeässä yksin seison
ja liekki sammunut jo kylmä on
en tiedä voiko sitä eloon saada kukaan toinen

Kaksi niin hehkuvaa ja kaunista saa kirkkaana loistaa
Kunpa auringon päivät päällämme ei päättyisi koskaan

En pidä kiinni, en työnnä sua pois
ja pyytämättäkin tahtoisit jäädä
Tänään ei satanutkaan vaikka taivas on ollut painava pitkään

Kaksi niin hehkuvaa ja kaunista saa kirkkaana loistaa
Kunpa auringon päivät päällämme ei päättyisi koskaan

Kaksi niin hehkuvaa ja kaunista saa kirkkaana loistaa
Kunpa auringon päivät päällämme ei päättyisi koskaan

Lyrics in english:

(by me and google translater)

Long time ago
a hunch of you
Once unknown
I feel now and recognize

You were a risk too great to circumvent
and too attractive to skip
I did not know how it all could be so scorching, burning

Two glowing so bright and beautiful may shine
If only the days the sun does not cease upon us ever

Long ago, somehow
without knowing sensed

that evening in the gray
you come

without fear

If ever I stand alone in the dark
and the flame goes out in the cold
I do not know whether it could

be brought back to life by anyone else

Two glowing so bright and beautiful may shine
If only the days the sun does not cease upon us ever

I do not stick, nor I push you off
and without asking you would want to stay
Today it did not rain at all, although the sky was heavy for a long time

Two glowing so bright and beautiful may shine
If only the days the sun does not cease upon us ever

Two glowing so bright and beautiful may shine
If only the days the sun does not cease upon us ever

Enigma Sitting on the moon

Lyrics:

I’m sitting on the moon
Watching planet blue, hello
Looking all around
Rotating without sound, where are you?
Where are you? I’m sitting on the moon
Where are you? I am missing you

I came from very far
A little unknown star, hello
I don’t know what to do
It’s so cold and blue, without you
Where are you? I’m sitting on the moon
Where are you? I am missing you

Photo by me =) Kuva minun ottama, kuutamo Lapissa.

Wherever you are South Border

I LOVE TO SEE THE OCEAN’S BEAUTY
AND THE MOON THAT SHINES ABOVE
ALONE IN THE SAND LOOKING AT THE STARS
WISHING SOMEDAY I WOULD FIND TRUE LOVE
WOULD IT BE NICE TO SEE THE MORNING
WITH THE ONE YOU LOVE THE MOST
WOULD IT BE NICE TO SAY GOODNIGHT
TO THE ONE YOU HOLD SO CLOSE TO YOUR HEART
TO YOUR HEART.

Chorus:
THE WIND THAT BLOWS THE DOVE
IS THE WIND THAT BLOWS MY LOVE
HOPE IT’LL FIND ITS WAY TO YOU WHEREVER YOU ARE.

I LOVE TO SIT IN FIELDS OF GREEN
LOOKING DEEPLY THROUGH THE SKY
WATCHING BIRDS AS THEY FLY BY
HOPING SOMEDAY FATE WILL BRING ME TRUE LOVE.

WOULD IT BE NICE TO HOLD SOMEONE
SO DEAR, NEAR YO UR HEART
WOULD IT BE NICE TO HEAR THOSE WORDS
I LOVE YOU FROM THE ONE THAT YOU LOVE,
THAT YOU LOVE.

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
I’D LOVE TO SEE MYSELF ONE DAY
IN THE ARMS OF SOMEONE
WHO WILL SHARE HER LIFE WITH ME
SELFLESSLY?SOMEDAY?
YOU WILL FIND YOUR WAY?TO ME?
(Repeat Chorus)

Fly away

You

are flying farther

and farther away

from me,

away

every second,

away every

minute and

away every

hour…

Through the clouds and to the stars

you fly now.

I will be left here

swallowing my tears.

There is no helping

hand

for the

longing heart.

Though time

goes by

and everyhting chances,

my love will never

change

for it is unconditional

eternal love.

It is too late

too bad

too everything

for my heart to bear sometimes.

I feel loosing touch

more and more.

Have I lost everything?

You

have a strength of a bear

and like a bird

you can fly

as I have the strenght of a bird

without it’s wings,

not flying anywhere,

in a gilded cage

that does not give

comfort in it’s

comfort..

Nightwish and Lenny Kraviz

Once you gave me a change

and I didn’t know who you are

Then as I grew to know you

I gave you a change

But you said it is now too late

Do you know what you did to me?

Do you see what you did

a foolish man

leaving a foolish heart like mine

Only a fool

runs from happiness so

deep as it could be…

The hope is now gone,

the only one I had

the only one was the one you handed me

for a such

little time…

too little time…

No hope now

it is all gone…

Some glad morning when this life is over,
I’ll fly away;
To a home on God’s celestial shore,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away).

Chorus
I’ll fly away, Oh Glory
I’ll fly away;
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away

When the shadows of this life have gone,
I’ll fly away;
Like a bird from these prison walls
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away)

Chorus

Oh, how glad and happy when we meet
I’ll fly away

No more cold or shackles on my feet
I’ll fly away

I’ll fly away, Oh Glory
I’ll fly away; in the morning
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away.

Just a few more weary days and then,
I’ll fly away;
To a land where joy shall never end,
I’ll fly away

I’ll fly away, Oh Glory
I’ll fly away; in the morning
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away.

Morandi – Reality & Dreams

Oh, I can see it in your eyes
I can feel you by my side
Closer and closer
Hope this is not another dream
I hope the game’s not over

Oh, when the darkness steals the light
I can feel you in my arms
Closer and closer
Hope that I won’t wake up alone
The dream is still not over

Refren:
So I know that it could be real
The only thing’s I need you here
To save me from this lonely night
When I taste the magic of your lips
Between reality and dreams
I feel I’m gonna loose my mind
I’m breaking to pieces insïde…
