Soul n' shit

I am told that this is life and pain is just a simple compromise

Without You

I have this one song that I listen to when I want to remember how good life is. It’s so easy to forget. Last summer when I was going to Istanbul to study, I didn’t pack my bags until about two hours before I had to get to the airport. And it was the middle of the night. I cried a lot, and spent a lot of time on the phone with a couple of friends to say goodbye. In the background David Guetta’s song “Without you” was on repeat. I had just heard the song earlier that day and it summed up every feeling I had in my body at that time. I didn’t know what to expect and I really didn’t wanna leave the country for almost three months. Things were so good - I had just met some new people and I had finally learned the city. I was living in an amazing apartement and I had just passed all my exams.

I had been waiting to go to Istanbul for about a year and a half, but I still cried on my way to the airport. How stupid was I?

I had the time of my life. The sun was shining all the time, I got to learn the language at the best University in Turkey and I met a lot of new, life-long friends. If you look apart from the fact that I was sick for about three weeks during the summer, it was the best summer ever. I got to know my old classmates and friends in an entire different setting and my new friends showed me how good life can be when you have loving friends around you.

I also met a person that turned out to change my way of looking at love. I used to be so cold. Now I can’t wait to see what’s coming my way. It took me about six months, but now I’m here. I finally think that I am deserving of something good, something wonderful. In the mean time I’m just gonna live my life. It’s gonna be AWESOME!

It might be weird, but this song makes me feel alive. Thank you, awkward DJ and that guy who had that one song I knew called “Burn”. Usually not my cup of tea, but this song made it through the walls of my heart. Embarassing, but true.

So .. Ending line: “I will never be the same without you”.
