FOREVER AND ALWAYS
by: taylor swift
Once upon a time
I believe it was a Tuesday
When I caught your eye
We caught onto something.
I hold onto the night
You looked me in the eye
And told me you loved me.
Were you just kidding?
Cause it seems to me
This thing is breaking down.
We almost never speak.
I don't feel welcome anymore.
Baby what happened?
Please tell me cause one second it was perfect
Now you're halfway out the door.
And I stare, at the phone...
He still hasn't called,
And you feel so low you cant feel, nothing at all,
And you flashback to when he said
Forever and always.
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom,- everything is wrong.
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone.
Cause I was there when you said
Forever and always.
Was I out of line? Did I say something way to honest?
Made you run and hide like a scared little boy?
I looked into your eyes, thought I knew you for a minute.
Now I'm not so sure...
So here's to everything-
Coming down to nothing.
Here's to silence
That cuts me to the core.
Where is this going?
Thought I knew for a minute but I don't anymore.
And I stare at the phone.
He still hasn't called,
And you feel so low you cant feel nothing at all.
And you flashback to when he said
Forever and always.
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom- everything is wrong.
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone.
Cause I was there when you said
Forever and always.
Did you mean it baby?
I don't think so...
Back up, baby back up.
Did you forget everything?
Back up, baby back up.
Did you forget everything?
Oh, and it rains in your bedroom- everything is wrong.
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone.
Cause I was there when you said
Forever and always.
And I stare at the phone.
He still, hasn't called.
And you feel so low you cant feel, nothing at all.
And you flashback to when we said
Forever and always.
And it rains in your bedroom- everything is wrong.
It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone.
Cause I was there when you said
Forever and always.
Didn't mean it baby...
You Said forever and always- Yeah.
love this song <3

A mental mixup
oh boy.
isn't it crazy the things that life can bring?
i was thinking the other day about how ironic it can be...
i dont know how your life goes, but if it is anything like mine, it can be so aggravating! most days, my life is simple and clear. i am a happy girl and things will be going perfectly for weeks at a time. then suddenly it seems, one seemingly perfect day changes faces and life throws a curve ball...
or six.
is that not the most obnoxious thing?! haha. rather than have one little thing every day to have to worry about at a time, one little problem or trial, i have weeks of carefree frolicking pass and they all hit at once.
oh life :)
i realize that life is beautiful- it really is. sometimes things go wrong and problems arise- mistakes are made and trials come, but in the end, it really is such a blessing to be alive and well. of course, things can always be worse. i am a firm believer in this... but you know, sometimes it is hard to keep that in mind. to remember that there are those out there in this dark world that have it a thousand times worse than you. people who would switch circumstances with you in a heartbeat if it were a possiblity.
in a way though, i am glad that it's not.
i am also glad for those bumps in the road that attack at all angles at the same time. in the end, after it all is over and done with, things brighten up and i realize, once again, that it wasn't so bad and recognize the good that came from it. everything happens for a reason.
another thing that has simply blown me away lately is the way that life works out.
me being me, i think i know what is best for myself. i have been planning out my life since i was a little girl- always imagining where i would be and what i would be doing at certain times in my life. i even thought i knew exactly WHO i would be. it is an interesting experience to reach those milestones in my life and compare my previous plans to the actual events that took place. sometimes, i am the smallest bit disappointed in myself... it's a little humbling to realize that you aren't the person you hoped you would be when you were little... but with that comes the resolution to change. i welcome change for the better. there are also those instances that you stumble upon and realize you ended up in a COMPLETELY difference place than you ever imagined. i cannot even emphasize the amount of times this has been the outcome in my life. with my "miss kirena knows best" attitude, i sometimes forget that she doesn't... however smart i may be, however independent i am or set on something, kirena DOESN'T know best.
that is a hard thing to accept.
but i do know, that once i get that beaten into my head- once i open my mind to that one person who really DOES know best, then i will end up in the places that i need to be. i will be touched by the people that i need to be influenced by. i will walk on the hearts of those that really need me. i will do the best and be the best that i can be.
and THAT makes it all worth it.
so hello, life.
this is kirena, and i welcome anything you choose to throw at me.
i am determined to walk hand in hand with that one person who knows what is best for me. with that bond, i cannot fail.
i will not fail.
oh,
p.s. i love you.

Not done yet :)
A little while back, i wrote this little poem. It was one of those things that just exploded at my fingertips and i forgot to put it on here. so here you go :)
Checkmate
By: Kirena Allen :)
Sometimes,
I sit here and wait for you to make your move.
Wrestling with possibilities,
I wonder what path you'll take.
To put it in simple terms,
one move will bring you closer,
and the other takes you just out of reach.
Time after time,
I've watched you sit in silence,
a silence that screams at my memories
to fade away and be forgotten.
Once again,
you take another step back,
the result of doing nothing,
putting yet another square between us.
As if we need more distance.
Living a lie of maybe,
high hopes begin to fade as your figure stands still.
Another day passes.
Another step back.
And another.
Holding on tight,
I squint trying to catch a glimpse,
imagine a sign,
recognize a clue,
distinguish a hint.
Silence.
That's when i realize,
you're just a pawn.
And here I was, thinking i was aiming at a king.
Happy new year, love.

A few thoughts....
A quote by Taylor Swift has recently stolen my heart.
I adore it!
"To me, "FEARLESS" is not the absence of fear. It's not being completely unafraid. To me, FEARLESS is having fears. FEARLESS is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, FEARLESS is living in spite of those things that scare you to death. FEARLESS is falling madly in love again, even though you've been hurt before. FEARLESS is walking into you freshman year of high school at fifteen. FEARLESS is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again...even though every time you've tried before, you've lost. It's FEARLESS to have faith that someday things will change. FEARLESS is having the courage to say goodbye to someone who only hurts you, even if you can't breathe without them. I think it's FEARLESS to fall for your best friend, even though he's in love with someone else. And when someone apologizes to you enough times for things they'll never stop doing, I think it's FEARLESS to stop believing them. It's FEARLESS to say "you're NOT sorry", and walk away. I think loving someone despite what people think is FEARLESS. I think allowing yourself to cry on the bathroom floor is FEARLESS. Letting go is FEARLESS. Then, moving on and being alright...That's FEARLESS too. But no matter what love throws at you, you have to believe in it. You have to believe in love stories and prince charmings and happily ever after.That's why I write all these songs. Because I think love is FEARLESS."
I couldn't agree more.
Thanks, Taylor :)

ALSO: another fabulous quote...
I signed my name.
Will you sign yours?
THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE UNASHAMED
"I am part of the fellowship of the unashamed. The die has been cast. I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made. I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I won't look back, let up, slow down, or be still. My past is redeemed, my present makes sense, and my future is secure. I'm finished and done with low living, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams, tarred visions, worldly talking, cheap giving, and dwarfed goals. I no longer need pre-eminence, positions, promotions, plaudits, or popularity. I don't have to be right, first, recognized, praised, regarded, or rewarded. I now live by faith, lean on His presence, walk with patience, am uplifted by prayer, and labor with power. My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is Heaven. My road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions are few, but my Guide is reliable, my mission is clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, divided, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I won't give up, shut up, or let up until I have stayed up, stored up, and paid up for the cause of Christ. I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till all know, and work till He stops me. And when He returns for His own, He will have no problem recognizing me. My banner will be clear."
(quoted from a quote by Elder Henry B. Eyring)

Twelve Hour Work Day (need I say more)
oh boy.
here i am. at a desk. at work.
i've been here since seven o'clock.
five hours ago.
and i have hardly moved.
GIVE ME MY SANITY!
so here i am. at a desk. at work.
i've been here since seven o'clock.
five hours ago.
and i've decided to do something.
write.
on my blog.
its about time you know.
you know what else it is about time for?
KIRENA'S WORD VOMIT
(throughout the course of a loooong day)
ready for it?
muah ha ha.
do you ever laugh at your own stuff?
hee hee. now, don't judge me. i am not vain or egotistical, but i think i am sometimes quite funny. here i was. at a desk. at work, and i decided to read my old posts on my blog. i went through and read everything that i ever wrote. it took me forty minutes (pathetic).
anyways, i was reading, and DANG, i was laughing my head off! there are some very clever things in those silly posts, that i am quite proud of. i know that i cannot be alone in feeling like this... you ever think you are funny? funny enough to the point that you sit at a desk, alone, at work, during a 12 hour day, and just start laughing because you think you are so clever?
i do. i did. today. just barely. good times.
the fourth kind. BS.
let me explain. ayer, i went to the movies with my good ole pal. we saw the newest alien attraction "the fourth kind"... ooooooh. this movie, allegedly, is a true story. it takes place in a little hodunk town in alaska- nome. the movie is a mix of both actual live footage and the director's interpretation of what happened. i must admit, some of the "real footage" was a little on the creeper side... there are bits and pieces of the story that i really cannot explain. BUT honestly... ALIENS? come on. this is just one thing that i cannot get into!
the sad thing is though, these people are one hundred percent CONVINCED that they have been abducted. that they have seen these other world intelligences and had contact with them. that was almost the scariest part of the whole movie... the people that were so sure. so positive that what "happened" was real. i just have one word for it all: BIZARRE. maybe one day i will eat my words, but until some owl-obsessed creature-thing speaks sumerian to me and drags me from my bed, leads me to their leader and drills into my brain, i will remain a skeptic.
"under the weather". what the eff? what the HECK does this mean? or i guess i should ask, why in the heck does it mean what it does? who came up with such a ridiculous phrase? i mean really. why is it, that when someone says they are feeling "under the weather", we automatically know that they are a poor sickie. the english language will never cease to befuddle my blonde brain. but i have made a decision: if ya'll can say "under the weather", then i am going to start the next best trend...
"how are you doing, kirena?"
"well, now that you mention it, i am feeling a little beneath the climate."
a funny thing about life, that i have had to learn, is that sometimes, you just have to wait. patience. what a vile word. REALLY! you say it to anyone and they give you a look of horror. shiver. this has been a really hard lesson for me to learn. in all honesty, i LOATHE waiting for anything. i was not blessed with the ability to calmly and rationally wait for ANYTHING that i want. sigh. BUT, i am trying hard and i am working on it. and therefore, i have come to the conclusion that sometimes, it is completely necessary to, yes, i am going to say it, be patient (i am sad to admit). whether it be for your chili to be warmed up, the drive thru line to get smaller, a special someone to come back home, the commercials to get done so you can finish that favorite show, the weekend to come, or for an answer to fervent prayer, sometimes, you just have to sit back, take a breath, relax, and wait. or in my case, let my eyes twitch, bite my lip, tap on the desk, check the mail, glance at the clock, grunt in annoyance, and... wait.
hey now,
it's a work in progress ;)
another thing that could very well drive me to insanity: missing things/people.
i get so tired of always feeling like there is an empty part of my heart! whether it be my family because i am away at college, college because i am with my family, friends, certain boys in certain places, no matter where i am in life, it seems like there is always some little thing that i wish was there- a person that i wish wasnt missing.
you know the funniest thing about missing someone, i swear on my life as soon as they are gone, EVERYTHING begins to remind you of that person. suddenly, their name appears in movie credits, on the news, is yelled at the park, on a billboard, suddenly everyone is talking about cloverfield, it's everywhere!! everything you do reminds you of that person. eating empanadas, putting on lip gloss, walking through the mall, body spray spritzing, playing at daybreak park, the list goes on and on! you find yourself imagining and role-playing how that person would act in every situation or activity you do. every person you are with just seems to be barely out of reach of how fantastic the said "person being missed" was. isnt it truly ironic how when that person seems to leave you, suddenly they are all around you?! you find yourself smelling their scent even! what is it that makes one suddenly haunted by the one that has gone? life is truly a wonder, and i will never quite understand why these sorts of things happen.
they sure don't make being patient any easier :P
mmmmmm bread. an amazing invention :)
i suddenly have the strongest urge to play the piano. of course, those dire times always come when, there is in fact, no piano in sight. so here i sit, at a desk, at work. with no piano :P
recently, i have gained a huge love of the piano. i've always taken advantage of it- always having one around. when i left for the good ole schoolio in logan, i suddenly realized how much i loved having one nearby. i missed it (go figure). i did the only thing i knew to do- i turned to pandora.com, haha. that jim brickman radio saved me!
so i guess that is one of the best things about being home right now... i have access to a piano whenever i want it :) oh, except of course when i am stranded at work for twelve hours :P haha.
sigh. working on patience, kirena :P
two is better than one- by taylor swift and boys like girls. one of the most adorable songs i have heard for a long time! have you ever heard those words! they are simply beautiful! i wish i could write like that... i mean really! that is one song that is perfectly applicable i think to many situations. gotta love it.
michael buble. gimme a piece of that delicious man! his talent will never cease to amaze me! that is one man with a supreme voice from heaven haha. another great song: "haven't met you yet". another cute one :P
you ever have a bolt of inspiration that just rocks your socks off? i have had a few of those and one day i will talk about them more, haha. i am outta here!
adios 12 hour shift.
ah yeah ;)
love kireeena

A bona fide poem from yours truly :)
PHEW!
it's finally done! Been working on this for a few weeks... finally feel like it is okay to post ;)
so here it is.... a bona fide poem by yours truly :)
By: Kirena Allen
"She didn't always walk.
Once upon a naive time,
Life was simple- easy to define.
There was no need to walk.
A girl lived on, happy and free.
Clouds came, but still she could see.
Rarely she walked.
The girl matured, and as it tends to do,
Life got complicated, problems grew.
To fix it, she walked.
Time passed, and as it floated by,
The girl realized something she couldn't deny.
With anticipation, waiting for a reply,
She decided to walk.
Moments of joy, times she'll never forget.
The things that happened neither will regret.
Saying goodbye, the girl walked.
Dropping subtle hints and tiny clues,
Accept to see them, should you choose,
But still she walked.
A simple glance in the reflection shows
A woman's face hiding the girl she knows;
So she turned and walked.
Shut her ears and seal those eyes
To all the lucky lovers who frequently sigh
Telling herself she isn't jealous is a lie.
Blindly, she walked.
Barricaded in her upgraded cell,
Full of flashbacks, her own personal Hell,
The girl walked.
All thoughts act like a trail of crumbs
Taking her back, the cycle has just begun.
Remembering, again, she walked.
She finds herself curled up in the tub,
A heart left beating, full of love.
She soon walked.
Selfish thoughts seem to taint her mind.
A prayer escapes to leave it all behind,
And she walked.
An empty box steals the patience she lacks.
A plagiarized message makes it impossible to relax.
To find comfort, she walked.
Then, a bright start, a brand new day,
A change of mind, a fresh bouquet...
Smiling, she walked.
She understands it won't be the same.
It's all a part of the complicated game.
Just a lock of memories all tied to one name.
While whispering, she walked.
A glimmer of light just up ahead.
Hopeful, yet scared, letting go of what was dead.
She'll never forget the things that were said.
And so, the girl walked."
p.s. life is beautiful <3
