My love, she keeps me warm

Remember the song 'Same Love' from Macklemore? If that song made you cry and stirred up so many feels just because you can relate to it and by all means you believe in same love, lo and behold, the lady who co-wrote and sang the song, Mary Lambert released 'She Keeps Me Warm' not too long ago. Honestly, I feel Mary's parts are the most relatable ones and perhaps because I am a girl in love with another girl, it sure did close to home.

Just listened to the song today and a huge wave of emotions swept me and I couldn't stop tearing up because the lyrics were exactly the same things that ran through my head when I think about my love, how we first met, when I first saw her and when I knew that I am pretty much head over heels in love with her. I saw the music video which premiered on Billboard and it brought me sweet memories on how we got together - perhaps not the same way as in the video (it'd be a dream come true to fall in love with a barista but hey, one thing I have learnt from this relationship, she was nothing like my dream and in fact, she was better than what I have always dreamt of), the same emotions on Mary's face when we first held hands and at the very start when I would steal a few glances to look at her. Our love is beautiful and yes, my love, she keeps me warm. Tried and tested especially during -1 degree weather conditions. :p

The ending of her music video on Billboard showed a background of Seattle and it was beautiful and made me thought, while everyone wants to be held and kiss before the Eiffel Tower, I too want to do the same thing but in Seattle. Don't ask me why but I am a little fond of Seattle and Paris is too mainstream. Lol.

This song got me at the very first verse and I think it is becoming one of the top songs that will be on loop for a while. A great song to get me going this few crazy weeks just because I know I can draw strength to survive the incredulous tough journey ahead from my love and at the end of the day, before I head to bed, I know I am blessed to be with somebody who makes me laugh, smile and keeps me warm even if we are miles away from each other.
