Mine
Phoebe Ryan
I don't desperately love this song, but I am starswept by the lyrics.
I found gold in the wreckage
Put it on a necklace
Keepin’ it cause I-I-I, I know that it’s mine
I wear it like a message
So I don’t forget it
Keepin’ it cause I-I-I, I know that it’s mine
I know that it’s mine no matter what I do
I know that it’s mine whether I win or lose
And even though my heart needs to take its time
I know that it’s mi-i-ine, I know that it’s mine.
As the year closes, I think everyone tries to find things to sum it up. What did you accomplish? Where did you go from where you were before? Did you shift out, pull up, fall in, explode forward? Backward? At all?
Every necklace I wear means something.
And this song encapsulates my year more profoundly than anything I could say.
