Different you

I used to love every part of you
until I really got to know you
now I wish I loved a different you

A you who always thinks before they act
A you who's a little more responsible
A you who's a little more considerate
A you who doesn't do some of the things
that you do

See I don't want to get rid of you
I couldn't handle replacing you
I can't see myself with someone new
I want you but I want a different you

I different version of you
who knows me the way you do
a you who is as calm as you
who makes me smile the way you do

See I don't want to loose you
but I don't click with you as I should do
so I want to be with a different you

I love spending time with you
and I love to love you
but at times I just want a different you

I might sound crazy
and I might sound like a hypocrite but I really love you
I just want to love a different you

Sad and now I admit
I don't want to loose you
I just want and have to change you
I want you but I really want is a different you

I used to love you
until I met another side of you
it's not that I don't love now
I just want to love another different you

Crazy because a different you wouldn't be you
which has me questioning if it's really you I want
but it's you I want
I just want a different you
an other different you
makes sense to me hope it makes sense to you

Me so far

It's nearly 5am but luckily I only have lectures in the afternoon so I will not struggle to wake up in the morning. At the moment I'm studying in Portugal at the University of Coimbra, International Relations with French and Portuguese.

Writing music for an album which I will be releasing firstly in Angola and other PALOP countries and the UK when I get the opportunity- the genre Kizomba and Semba with Jazz and R&B influences. Being a perfectionist I haven't added any songs to my myspace page yet but will let you all know as soon as I do most probably by the end of March www.myspace.com/islaofficial.

I'm going to post some poetry as soon as I copy-write them and I'll also record them and add them to my myspace. Feel free to add me as a friend on myspace I will accept you all lol.

I love African history and culture and will be blogging about Africa and International Relations as often as I can, I'll also try to keep you all posted on what's happening in the continent.

Music, History, Poetry, Politics/ International Relations, Art, Performing Arts

I'm interested and passionate about many things but I think they all relate to each other in one way on an other :) and my interests make me a well rounded person!!
