A Day for Writing & Making Music

Kayla's POV:

~~~~5 Days Later~~~~

A woke up to birds chirping and the sun shining through the sheer curtains of the bedroom. I opened my eyes and looked at the time. My pastel Hello Kitty clock that Nathan bought me read 10:27. Wow I slept in a little bit. The babies haven't woken me up yet...weird. I better go check on them. I walked into the nursery. I peeked my head in. My heart melted as I saw my little angels in their cribs, doing what babies do best, sleeping. I giggle at my own thoughts.

The boys were in Japan now and their tour was going great. I was actually workin on a song that I though Nathan and I could sing together. I haven't told him about it yet. I want to finish it first.

I grabbed my Paris writing notebook, my Kawaii cutie pens, my Korilakkuma pencil pouch, my iPhone and my white/silver beat pill. I decided to listen to a little bit of the boys. So I turned on they're newest single Show Me Love and smiled as I heard them start to sing.

~~~~2 Hours Later~~~~

"If I would have known that you wanted me...the way I wanted youuu...then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart, and right here in each others aaarms...." I quietly sung to myself. After a few more minutes I had finishe the song. I re-read everything...making little changes here and there. And then vuala! I was finished with the lyrics.

Now all I needed to do was write the music. I walked into the bedroom where my keyboard was. I sat down at the bench and started to brainstorm.

It took about 20-25 minutes to finally get a melody. I wrote the notes down and put others behind them. This is what I really love about writing music.....writing music makes me feel happy and free. I can convey my emotions in my music, let my imagination run wild, and I can create something that I can be proud of. I can't imagine not writing music. To me, it's not a want, it's a need. Something will pop into my head, and i just have to write it down or i'll go insane. And there's nothing in the world like writing something and performing it. It provides a way to express my inner feelings and turmoils far deeper than any other medium, and in a way that others could easily grasp. I honestly do not understand how other people get through their lives without writing music.

It took me about...4 more hours I had finished the entire song, I read my work and then ran trough it a few times.

Here's the Song:

Kayla:

I'd like to say we gave it a try

I'd like to blame it all on life

Maybe we just weren't right, but

But that's a lie, that's a lie

And we can deny it as much as we

want

But in time our feelings will show

'Cause sooner or later

We'll wonder why we gave up

The truth is everyone knows

Almost, almost is never enough

So close to being in love

If I would have known that you wanted

me

The way I wanted you

Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds

apart

But right here in each other's arms

And we almost, we almost knew what

love was

But almost is never enough

Nathan:

If I could change the world overnight

There'd be no such thing as goodbye

You'd be standing right where you were

And we'd get the chance we deserve

Try to deny it as much as you want

But in time our feelings will show

'Cause sooner or later

We'll wonder why we gave up

Both:

The truth is everyone knows

Almost, almost is never enough

We were so close to being in love

If I would have known that you wanted

me, the way I wanted you

Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds

apart

But right here in each other's arms

And we almost, we almost knew what

love was

But almost is never enough

Oh, oh baby, you know, you know, baby

Almost, baby, is never enough, baby

You know

And we can deny it as much as we want

But in time our feelings will show

'Cause sooner or later

We'll wonder why we gave up

The truth is everyone knows

Almost, almost is never enough

(is never enough, babe)

We were so close to being in love

(so close)

If I would have known that you wanted

me the way I wanted you

(babe)

Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds

apart

But right here in each other's arms

And we almost, we almost knew what

love was

(baby)

But almost is never enough

I took a picture of the lyrics and then a picture of myself in my glasses, an oversized grey t-shirt, black leggings & tan Ugg boots, my hair in a messy bun with a light blue butterfly bow. I sent them boh to Nathan,

'Been writing all day babe...read this and tell me what you think? Thx love you.😙☁️🌸'
