    Older American beekeeper here. The filling has not changed. It still warms my heart after a few years.

      When mom was alive and i was still a kid she did time a lot I had to stay in foster homes till she got out, I had one wonderful family offer to adopt me and I declined. I'll never forget how heartbroken they were but even though mom made a lot of mistakes she did her best to show me she loved me. Some of the kids in the homes I stayed at were certain they were not loved by their mothers. Even if you mess up sometimes it's important to do what you can to show your child you love them, ill always love my mom and I know now she had severe mental health issues. I hope she's proud of me and knows I don't blame her.

    I found this song on UA-cam back in 2009. I fell in love with Zee's voice. I remember sitting on the brownstone steps in the morning sun with my little laptop, listening to this and sipping french vanilla coffee while you slept in upstairs. I was so happy. We were engaged then. I remember I started calling you my honeybee. Some of those old cards you have from me have pictures or stickers of fat, happy little bees on them. I even dragged you to a little show of hers down on the Jersey Shore. (She was great). Seems like a lifetime ago. That was before I found out about the lies, the cheating, the manipulation, and before all the neglect and abuse. It was before I had the faintest clue that you were a narcissist, a sadist, and a borderline sociopath with an agenda. It was before I knew that you never really intended to marry me. When I was listening to this song I was wearing an engagement ring, had a beautiful wedding dress with my name on it and nothing but pure love, unconditional trust and contentment in my heart. Now when I hear this song, it makes me profoundly sad. There is a dark hole inside me and it's filled with shadows of you. It makes me miserable that I have to live with all these memories of loving someone.. (close to a decade) ..who never really existed. I have to live with memories of endless crying, anxiety, rejection, intense and repeated disappointment and every kind of abuse imaginable. For you, it's meaningless. For me it was real, deeply meaningful and deeply painful. But that doesn't matter to you or anyone anymore. Shame on you for breaking me like this, for being such a bad person and for making me feel empty & sad when I hear this beautiful song.

      @bookmarkthis because narcissists are masters and extremely clever, after the love bombing which is when they hook you in and then marry you, the evil comes out. What's sad is that a lot of people don't know what narcissism is, I even had to educate myself on what was going on then I was like OHHHHHHHH OK..... GET THE FU@K OUT NOW!!!!!

    • @SL-yn4ju
      @SL-yn4ju 4 роки тому

      Never let a narcissist steal your sunshine....get your mojo back and say, ok, now I know the signs of a cray cray narc and move on! You can still love this beautiful song and make it a reminder that you had to learn some hard lessons in life. I married a narc too, but I got out within 6 months and had my marriage annulled..... they are soul-less psychos!!!!!!!!!!

    I heard this about 12 years ago when I was 14 and had to grow up fast. At 17 I was kicked out into the streets by my mother. Years have gone by and nothing has gotten easier. I turn 26 this year and I’ve had to be alone the majority of my adulthood because my family exiled me for being me. I don’t know what it’s like to have a family, I keep going through so much and I don’t know when it will stop. I have to serve time in a few weeks because I made a dumb decision but I think all I’m looking for is love and someone to appreciate me. I feel so lost right now all I want to do is listen to this song and float away…. Thursday 2:53 p.m. April, 25th. 2024.

    Lyrics:
    I am a honey bee,
    Shunned off from the colony
    And they won't let me in
    So I left the hive,
    They took away all my stripes
    And broke off both my wings
    So I'll find another tree
    And make the wind my friend
    I'll just sing with the birds
    They'll tell me secrets of the world
    But my other honey bee
    Stuck where he doesn't wanna be
    But my darling, honey bee
    I'll come save you
    Even if it means I'd have to face the queen
    Da param pam param pam
    Para ra ra pa pa ra ram
    So I'll come prepared,
    My new friends said they would help me
    Get my loved one back
    They say it isn't right,
    The bees have control of your mind
    But I choose not to believe that
    So we'll meet in the darkness of the night
    And I promised I will be there on time
    We'll be guided by my new friends, the butterflies
    Bring us back to our own little hive
    Oh my other honey bee,
    No longer stuck where he doesn't wanna be
    Oh my darling, honey bee
    I have saved you
    And now that you're with me,
    We can make our own honey
    Oh param pam param pam
    Para ra ra pa pa ra ram

I had problem switching off my computer once I start to browse her videos. Can't really remember 'donkey' times I ve been listening. If I had some urgent things to do I WILL NOT click on her videos otherwise mytime is gone, for good. She is our darling. MALAYSIA BOLEH.
