How Do You Know?

Do your hands get shakey?

Do you get butterflies?

Do you get a headache?

"Your love is like a river
Peaceful and deep"

Do you shake a little?

Do you tremble?

Do you sweat?

"Your soul is like a secret
That I never could keep"

Do you smile, a lot?

Do you question everything?

Do you wonder?

"When I look into your eyes
I know that it's true"

Do you get nervous?

Do you always try to impress?

Do you find it hard to operate in their absense?

"God must have spent...
A little more time
On you..."

Do you find it hard to not say "I Love You" ?

Do you find yourself apologizing for making yourself look stupid, even when they laugh?

Do you like all these bad things that are heppening to you?

-----

You know, im really not a doctor. But if I had to guess, if you could even call it that, I would say you're in Love. Yeah, those are the symptoms. Everyone who hasn't experienced Love always asks, "What does it feel like?" "How do you know?"

Thats how you know. And you know what?

All that pain...

It's Love.

Humbly Yours,

BJ Nelson

I Love You

Treckking On

Trekking on, that seems to be the only thing I've been able to do lately. With a leg that out of commission, life has been tough. I miss running.... A lot. The biking, it's just getting to me. Don't get me wrong, I love being with my team, but i just wish i could run with them...I'm not sure what I'm going to do at Cross camp (Fri-Sun) since i cant run. I guess I'm just gonna enjoy my team to the fullest.

But you know what made everything up to right now better? 100% better...

A 1:30 A.M. text message. =]] Talk about putting a smile on my face for the rest of the day =]]

Yours,

BJ Nelson

Motivation

As I wait in the car for my mom...




I saw an old man yesterday, 7/2/09, at 8:22 pm...









...He had no legs...






...That's why I run. Because he can't...


Do something for someone you may not even know and it feels so good inside...But if anything, do it because you can...

Runnin' In The Rain

So today, it started off splendid! ... Cross practice was in a total downpour! But I wont lie, I liked it a lot =]] I love to run in the rain, although biking isn't as fun as running in it is...too much rain in my face and what not.

I guess I'm writing this so i can look back in a few months when I miss all of this and can remember how splendid it was =]

Who else is gonna miss this time right now? Or am I alone!? Lol

Your Eyes

Kaitlin, I wrote this song for you for our two year anniversary. It was my gift to you, and as the paper wears and tears, it becomes ever more obvious that I need to make a digital copy. There is a guitar part to accompany it, and I assure you, you will hear it in full when you are ready and want to. This is your song, about you and I, and I can only hope that it will bring as much joy reading it, and someday hearing it, that it did to me in all the hours I put into it. =]

Your Eyes

[Chorus]

Baby, don't close your eyes

Embrace what's inside, it's real.

Baby, please do not cry,

I want to do something, special.

Baby, look in my eyes

Tell me you don't see a future.

Lady, you have my heart,

Lets dance the night away.

I remember all those days

Should of never walked away

Kiss my hand and blow away

All the tears from the day.

Baby girl now cant you see

Me and you were meant to be

Take my hand and stay with me

Together we will see eternity

[Chorus]

Two short years have passed by now

I still try and think of how

Will you please just take a bow

Look at all we have right now.

I will spend all my life

Making you my happy wife

Lasting through every strife

It will never cut with a knife

[Sax/Guitar Solo]

All the memories we have made

All the hours we have paid

They will surely never fade

Baby our lives are made.

Sweetie look at me and see

I'm down here on my knee

Giving you my every plee

Sweetie will you marry me?

[Chorus]

[Short Sax Solo]

I Love You

I'm not sure what else to say right now, so ill end it on that note.

Yours,

Running Poem

Idc if you like it, it passed some time =P

Cross Country

We’re running and running as fast as we can

No one to look to or to reach out a hand.

The hills are approaching and looking mighty ferocious

Our shoes all muddy and mighty atrocious.

We look to the finish and see our team,

The only ones still waiting, smiling with a beam.

Yeah we’re stupid and yeah we’re gay

But look at our friends…ok they are pretty gay…

But gay or not, we’ve all made it through,

And now we’re sitting here, re-lacing our shoe.

There’s no need to explain, no need to wonder

We have some great coaches, the almighty plunder.

Yes, plunder is right, for we be mighty pirates,

And I’m putting this line here because nothing rhymes with pirates…

At cross country camp, we come together as one,

To explore each other, until the knot is finally done.

This knot will bind us to our dying day on earth,

So that we’re brothers and sisters, from our timely birth.

So let’s run and run, as fast as we can,

Cuz running is horrible, but we’re all a fan.

Running...

It's my favorite thing in the world to do, and now im stuck with Megatron (my air cast) on my leg for two weeks and i cant run for god knows how long. This is oh so depressing, especially at the very beginning of XC season...

Grr...

- I hate stupid doctors who cant read x-rays...i mean come on! I saw something wrong on it!!!

- I do like doctore who actually know what they're doing, and treat/diagnois me well =]

- I hate MRI machines. Why do they take so longgggg!!!!

- I hate my legs...

- I'm still gonna be there for my teams. XC and Triathlon crew, im not gonna leave ya in the dust. Just don't leave me in it.

So that's my life right now...No running...only biking and swimming...and of course i don't have a CFC pass so i can really go in there...even though i am an athlete...and i go to the dang school....
