John Legend

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

So I am sitting here in my leaba (Irish for bed) listening to John Legend. What a man. What a musician.

I sit here cross legged underneath my fairy lights that shine above my head & I am just happy. It is just one of those nights where you can sit in bed alone listen to some amazing music, have a think over life, relax and be absolutely content.

Listening to his music, his lyrics make me think of so much. Mainly my partner. And yes everyone who knows me know that I am in no way mushy, but his lyrics make me think of him & how I love him. And yes my friends I am still me, I just blame the music & John Legend for bringing emotions to the surface.
