—God made me the reckless kind
New song & some fun.
“I’ve often prayed for things I knew would never come to pass. I’ve often held a lover just cause I knew it’d never last. God made me the reckless kind of love.”
—Oh & My Lungs
New Year, new songs! Well, actually old ones I forgot about it. More coming this week, stay tuned.
—Beekeeper Remix 1
A Philly Friend, Matt Lettieri, sent me this remix of “Beekeeper” he’s been secretly working on. Check it. Thanks Matt. :)

Above the mountains
the geese turn into
the light again
Painting their
black silhouettes
on an open sky.
Sometimes everything
has to be
inscribed across
the heavens
so you can find
the one line
already written
inside you.
Sometimes it takes
a great sky
to find that
small, bright
and indescribable
wedge of freedom
in your own heart.
Sometimes with
the bones of the black
sticks left when the fire
has gone out
someone has written
something new
in the ashes of your life.
You are not leaving
you are arriving.
-David White
I forgot that you used to kiss my forehead like an old romantic.
I said it calmed my racing mind.
It helped me remember the simple act of sitting in my Grandpa’s lap
While the screen door let in a light summer breeze
As we watched Bring Crosby sing
Moon Light Becomes You
Or laughed at Shirley Temple, while she picked blueberries.
You promised to be my Bing,
If I’d be your Grace.
I promised, but I forgot.
I forgot about human frailty
And how it sneaks into love, despite every hope.
Funny, when you kissed my forehead
I only thought of us all winter long.
But until just now, I forgot we happened at all.
Huh.
I’m making a 3 song Christmas EP for everyone to gift away (for cheap!) to their loved ones during the Holiday season. I’ll be collaborating with CuttInk on the Christmas-themed case, but I need YOUR help in picking 2 of the 3 songs to be on the EP! SOO, what’s your favorite Christmas song!?! I need help, I’m stumped! :)
Tweet it at me or Facebook it to me!
Love,
Kelly Ruth
