Night of Hope

I can't sleep tonight. Once again thoughts of him ache my head,bound by a desire to be with him, I tried to close my eyes but I am unable to think of anything else. It's like I'm being possessed by him. He truly captivated me and I am drawn to this deep mysterious well. No hope but possibility.

Like Dirty Vegas famously sang "days go by and still I think of you", that is exactly how I feel. There hasn't been a day where I have stopped thinking about him.

There is no hope. No nothing. But lingering memories that won't seem to fade away. With each passing day, the pain slowly goes away but the fact remains he is slowly letting me go as I am slowly letting him go. It hurts. I miss him, like everyday.

I usually love days off but these days I hate it as I have to find something to occupy my mind so that I don't have to think about him. A month has past by now, I'm sure I can get through it, eventually. I just need to have a positive attitude so that I can have a positive vibe to send out to the universe. No guy wants a mellow girl. I need the old ME back!

Tomorrow night will be the same thing, I won't be able to sleep as I will spend my thoughts on him and how I never wanted to lose him but whatever we do, we were never going to be able to make it together because he never fought for me. He never thought I was good enough to be with him. He was never sure of me and my love for him. His doubt became my doubt and I was already gone before I left.

His presence won't leave me alone or perhaps I choose to dwell on it. I don't know. All I know is I deserve better. I deserve someone who has faith in me and will be proud of having me. I can't wait for that day to happen. I will make the one I love a very happy man.

Baby, these streets are dark tonight but I've got your hand to hold onto
It amuses you how I can't see at night but tonight I've gotta say it's bright
You led the way, step by step, with each footstep you take I follow your lead
Baby, we have come a long way, I've got a feeling tonight will be magical

Love Never Dies

Fresh from watching Andrew Llyod Webber's "Love Never Dies" at the Regent Theatre courtesy of my bestfriend as a surprise present to celebrate I finally landed my dream job. Such a lovely thing to do, I will re-pay her with another surprise although I find it extremely difficult to top what she has given me, and I also believe it would be hard for any guy taking me out on a surprise date to top my bestfriend, I guess that's why she's my bestfriend! Haha! If only she has a penis and a broader chest we would make beautiful Eurasian babies!

Anyway, since I'm in the mood of dwelling on songs and the meaning behind their lyrics to me I've decided to post lyrics from the song 'Love Never Dies'. Sad tale of love that was lost but re-united again after such a long period of time, and even though both lives have changed, new chapters started, old chapters buried, yet their true love never dies, it lives on.

Do I believe in that? Yes I do. I believe that no matter what happens or no matter how faraway one can be, the heart will still beat faster for the one you love. Every single time you think of the person, you can't deny your true feelings. Time can't erase beautiful memories or even painful events.

This song makes me weep. Makes me happy. Makes me hopeful.

 
Who knows when love begins?
Who knows what makes it start?
One day it's simply there, a life inside your heart
It slips into your thoughts
It infiltrates your soul
It takes you by surprise, then siezes full control

Try to deny it, and try to protest
But love won't let you go, once you've been posessed

Love never dies, love never falters
Once it has spoken, love is yours
Love never fades, love never alters
Hearts may get broken, love endures
Hearts may get broken, love endures

And soon as you submit
Surrender flesh and bone
That love takes on a life much bigger than your own
It uses you at whim
And drives you to despair
And forces you to feel more joy than you can bear

Love gives you pleasure and love brings you pain
And yet, when both are gone, love will still remain

Love never dies, love never falters
Once it has spoken, love is yours
Love never fades, love never alters
Life may be fleeting

Love never dies, love will continue
Love keeps on beating when you're gone
Love never dies, once it is in you
Life may be fleeting, love lives on
Life may be fleeting, love lives on
 
 

Songs, Lyrics and Memories Pt 2

My head is so full of ideas today I just want to spill them all as I know as of next week I will be busy working my ass off and won't probably jump on this for awhile. I want to re-visit my writing about songs that hold so much memory and that everytime I hear it, it gives me chills.
This song was dedicated to me back in 2006 on my trip back home to Indonesia, I was away for a month. I was never used to not hearing from him for more than a day so I have to admit it was difficult to be away from him.

We would still call each other almost every night, yet the more I speak to him for some reason the more angry I've become. I guess I was just frustrated for not being able to be with him and I felt as though he was coping fine without me. My insecurity got the better of me. It was until he played a song to me over the phone and expressed how he really felt being without me.

He played Fort Minor's "Where'd You Go". I was speechless. He was much more miserable than I was.
He was so passionately in love with me and I was petrified by it.

D.D.D this one is for you. I remember he asked me (after things ended) how I could just be so cold towards him and leave him cold turkey, he said I left him to suffer for a whole year before I even wanted to speak to him again, and how I wouldn't return his calls,msgs and emails. He never understood how I was able to do that to him. Truth is, I don't even know but I just did. I switched off and marched on. Without him.

We tried to be friends afterwards in 2008 or at least I tried by pouring my heart about another guy I was seeing, it was unbearable for him, but he thought he could stick it out so I would eventually see that he was the one for me, he always wanted more and I could never give him more. Once again, I had a love so precious yet I could never give him the love he deserves. It was another case of not the right love for me. He has met his true love now and I am extremely happy for him.

I thank him for all his lovely memories, there wasn't a day where I didn't feel loved by him. Was I foolish for letting him go? No. I was thankful to have him be a part of my rainbow life. I hope he knows I still have his painting and it decorates my apartment just like his love decorates my heart.



Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.

She said "Some days I feel like shit,
Some days I wanna quit, and just be normal for a bit,"
I don't understand why you have to always be gone,
I get along but the trips always feel so long,
And, I find myself trying to stay by the phone,
'Cause your voice always helps me to not feel so alone,
But I feel like an idiot, workin' my day around the call,
But when I pick up I don't have much to say,
So, I want you to know it's a little fucked up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', at times debatin',
Tellin' you that I've had it with you and your career,
Me and the rest of the family here singing "Where'd you go?"

I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home...

You know the place where you used to live,
Used to barbecue up burgers and ribs,
Used to have a little party every Halloween with candy by the pile,
But now, you only stop by every once and a while,
Shit, I find myself just fillin' my time,
With anything to keep the thought of you from my mind,
I'm doin' fine, and I'm plannin' to keep it that way,
You can call me if you find that you have something to say,
And I'll tell you, I want you to know it's a little fucked up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', at times debatin',
Tellin' you that I've had it with you and your career,
Me and the rest of the family here singing "Where'd you go?"

I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home...

I want you to know it's a little fucked up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', no longer debatin',
Tired of sittin' and hatin' and makin' these excuses,
For why you're not around, and feeling so useless,
It seems one thing has been true all along,
You don't really know what you've got 'til it's gone,
I guess I've had it with you and your career,
When you come back I won't be here and you can sing it...

Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...

Take me to a happy place

It's officially been 2 years since I took off on my European adventure. Now I've got a new job and I've set myself a new goal. I am going to travel again in 2013. I remember being so motivated working because I was working towards something exciting. As I plan to conquer South America roughly in May/June this will give me roughly 18 months to save up. Definitely something that is achievable!
I want to go to many happy places again.
I want to go on an adventure. Another journey. Another culture. Another country I will fall in love with.
I remember sitting and enjoying the view from Graca Alfama in Lisbon, Portugal. It was magical. I felt like the luckiest person on earth. Just to sit there, on my own, hugged by the warmth of trees. It was my version of heaven. I want to be happy again.

Songs, Lyrics and Memories Pt 1

Music has always been a massive part of my life. I can honestly say I will die without music.
I was just laying on my bed when I remembered an old song, way back like either in 1999 or 2000. The song was by Vertical Horizon called "Best I Ever Had".

This song was given to me after I broke up with my xbf (in such a cruel manner I must add). Looking back, I don't know how I was able to be so mean and heartless, all I know is that now I'm paying the price for it. Karma really is a bitch.

I realized that back in the day, I used to be so mean to the people who loved me dearly, I don't know why I do that, I guess I take them for granted, I guess I can never understand why they keep taking a beating from my cruel words/acts. I keep taking their kindness for a ride!
One thing I do know for sure is that I could never love them the way they loved me. It pains me to admit it and I can say this because I have experienced it myself, where I was much more in love with the other person than he was with me. Or maybe it wasn't that, maybe it was simply I didn't love him the way he wanted me to, and you cannot argue with chemistry, it's either you have it or you lack it.

Now I have stopped doing that. Once I start dating a guy and I realized he was more into me than I was into him I let him go. He deserves someone who can give him the same kind of love. I hope one day I can find the one who loves me just as much as I do for him. That will create a beautiful relationship. We wouldn't need to seek elsewhere because we have each other and that is plenty!

I keep getting distracted, back to my point about the song "Best I Ever Had" by Vertical Horizon, my xbf said to me "Think of me when you listen to this song, I love you."

He wouldn't speak or see me after that. Who would have thought young love could be so painful to bear?

I just want to write down the sad lyrics:

So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring


Nothing's quite the same now
I just say your name now


[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't want me back
You're just the best I ever had


So you stole my world
Now I'm just a phony
Remembering the girl
Leaves me down and lonely


Send it in a letter
Make yourself feel better


[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
You don't need me back
You're just the best I ever had


And it may take some time to
Patch me up inside
But I can't take it so I
Run away and hide
And I may find in time that
You were always right
You're always right


So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I'm here to stay
Love can be so boring


What was it you wanted
Could it be I'm haunted


[Chorus]
But it's not so bad
You're only the best I ever had
I don't want you back
You're just the best I ever had
The best I ever had
The best I ever

Sunday 5:12pm

Just one week ago I had my heart torn apart with lies.
Today I am empty,I am sadness but I am not broken.
5:12pm lying in my bed,looking out my window and I see a glimpse of hope.
My eyes are tired,my head is heavy with thoughts of him,thoughts of us and thoughts of my journey so far. It hasn't been an easy ride. Then again, would I like a smooth sailing life? I can't say, haven't had one!

He is gone. I have left. The room is empty but I can hear echoes of pain.
No more joy to fill up. I think love is madness! Pure lust is evil! It crawls underneath my skin and I am unable to resist. Go on,says the voice in my head.

His face is slowly fading away, I remember his chest,broad and warm. I loved resting my tiny body to steal the warmth. It's cold now, I should get going. I need to find something or someone else to keep me warm much longer.

Excuse me, you dropped my heart

I haven't taken the time to sit here and write. I guess I haven't had much "me" time. But I have been collecting thoughts, words and memories in my brain. I just hope I have enough memory space and be able to put the pieces back together so I can write them down properly.


The one vivid thought I had which kept re-occuring this morning (on my way to work, even at work!) was a vision of a man who ran towards me, stabbed my chest, just enough so he can stick his hand inside and ripped my heart out and ran with it. He ran so fast, yet I can see him holding my heart clearly, it was red, brutal red, and it slipped out of his hand. My heart fell down to the pavement but he kept on running, he mustn't have realized! I just watched my heart from a distance, still pumping. Refusing to give up. That was my heart.

What a vision. It reminded me of Anne Rice's novel "Queen of the damned" where Queen Akasha would viciously rip open a human's heart and just hold it in her hand for the sake of it. She would let the beating heart rest on her hand. She loves the idea of it. Sick, lonely vampire. She would chew it up eventually, I don't think she enjoyed the taste of it much, it was simply the satisfaction of being able to control humans lives. She was in control. She dominated those poor humans. Ok, enough Anne Rice talk. I can go for hours.

I don't know why I had the vision. All I can gather is that my heart has taken a beating yet I refuse to give in to desperation and surrender to heartache. Life really is how I make it. I choose to surrender to misery and drown in a pool of sadness and drama I exaggerated in my head. Now I say NO! I choose HAPPINESS. I choose to take the path to success and kick off my bad habit of relying on something/someone to try to be happy. I am a drama queen. But it is time to grow up.

This is a writing I wrote when I was listening to Kanye West & Jay Z's song "No Church in the Wild"

My tears washed my face clean but my hands are still dirty
I wanted to get rid of the fear of being alone, how I was addicted to pain
He didn't need to bring his shadow, it only brought me doubt and sorrow
I wish I could untangle the mess, but everytime I tried, I failed again and again

I refused to believe I was unable to work it out, ah to hell with it
I let my mind wander to a happy state, and there it lies, in the back of my head
Brad, my hope, my escape travel. I like pressing rewind but I end up in circles
This is a vicious cycle. I'm bestfriends with imagination and fairytales

The end could not have been furthest from the truth I am about to spill
A new white piece of paper has been laid out and I have all the crayons
I'm hungry for the new feeling of desire, my lover, I will draw love hearts
I carry all the colors, I promise myself to carve your name in hot pink

Run Faster!

I have long forgotten the amazing therapy running can give me. It has officially been months since I've actually been on an evening run after work. This evening I took the initiative to taste the night air and let the wind chill blow my cheeks. Oh boy, did it feel liberating!!! Not only did I feel the need to run off my massive dinner and dessert but I felt that it got rid of all the headache I've been dealing with at work, all the pain I've had to endure, well basically it re-energized me and I came home tired but I felt like I've competed and won 2nd place. Not 1st place as traces of bad memories and heartache trailed behind which forced me to run faster, and at times I feel defeated so I'll let my bad memories take 1st place!

You cannot catch me so quickly, I've prepared myself this time
84 days of pain you caused comes trailing behind me, not far behind
I feel tired, not once did I look back, my heart beats faster, my hands are cold
It's amazing how darkness wants to take my spot, but I can run faster!

Adele - Don't You Remember (Live at Largo)



Beautiful song by the talented Adele.
Her lyrics are hauntingly beautiful.

"Don't You Remember"

When will I see you again?
You left with no goodbye, not a single word was said,
No final kiss to seal any seams,
I had no idea of the state we were in,

I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness,
And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head,

But don't you remember?
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before,
Baby, please remember me once more,

When was the last time you thought of me?
Or have you completely erased me from your memory?
I often think about where I went wrong,
The more I do, the less I know,

But I know I have a fickle heart and bitterness,
And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head,

But don't you remember?
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before,
Baby, please remember me once more,

Gave you the space so you could breathe,
I kept my distance so you would be free,
And hope that you find the missing piece,
To bring you back to me,

Why don't you remember?
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before,
Baby, please remember me once more,

When will I see you again?

In pursuit of happiness

Recent events have inspired me to write about how far a person is willing to go in pursuit of happiness.
Changes are inevitable in life, may that be with our surroundings or simply with ourselves.
What we found a sense of fulfillment 2 years ago may not be the case today. A job we might have found challenging 1 year ago may no longer be challenging. A partner in a relationship whom we seek comfort in 6 months ago may no longer be able to provide a sense of belongingness or comfort.
So, how do we react to these changes in life? In a variety of ways! Some are proactive, some reactive and some just bury it as changing means taking a risk which of course comes with the 'unknown' and some people fear of the 'unknown' more so than others and rather not take the leap to change. Whichever suits really..
Anyhow, I won't go into detail as to what being proactive and reactive looklike, I simply want to share a writing about a person's journey in discovering happiness and how each move the person makes affects the person surrounding him/her without the person even realizing the total effect of it.
I've acquired the taste of silence in my bed
All these sleepless nights I beg for answers
I said I control colors but I can't control red
All my days still cannot provide me answers
Why is she in tears? Who is there to blame?
Mother, Father, please don't look at me that way
Tell me am I supposed to kneel down in shame?
Mother, Father, do be kind and show me the way
I just want to keep on walking, I just want to try
She keeps following my steps so I decided to run
I want to keep my distance so I can say goodbye
She keeps on weeping so I whispered "I'm done"
Guilt stabs my heart with sadness and I let it win
Someone steal daylight from me it has done me harm
Everyone deserves a chance, so please let me win
Another smile, another shot of being a selfish charm

I want to pretend

He showed up with dirty hands and a half assed grin
I wanted to tell him that a bit of sunlight wouldn't hurt
How dare he spell out L O V E when my heart is aching
My wishes usually come true but no, not this time around
I long for his tender touch, my God I want this to go away!
Traces of him don't belong, yet I can't seem to scrub if off
I told him to go away and return when I am no longer here
My heart wants to escape but I'm stuck missing him terribly
I closed my eyes but he is still standing on the corner of my eye
I asked him to leave me be but I lied and want him here with me
I pushed him away, his face disgusts me but why am I unable to cope
I want to go, I want to leave, I want to pretend that I can let him go

His hands slipped away

He whispers hope and desire to my ears.
I pulled him close so I could share his dreams.
The tingling inside my stomach bursted into tears.
I guess reality is nothing like what it seems.

He took me higher and I never looked down.
We walked hand in hand and the road was so long.
Rest assured he would never let me frown.
It felt so good, It felt so right, but it was so wrong.

He touched my soul and his smile was my home.
I could make it through each night by hearing his voice.
I would follow his footsteps all the way to Rome.
His hands slipped away, but it could have been my choice.

The Water, Sun and Sand.

This is a short story I made while I was thinking about my trip to Spain. I decided to take a train to San Sebastian and check out the beach on my own. It was beautiful. It was a perfect day. I soaked up the sun and got pretty dark. I was proud of myself!
The story is between a girl and her lover.


I didn't see him come towards me, but there he stood tall. He took me by the hand and together we made our way to beautiful San Sebastian. We soaked our feet in the warm water. His touch was gentle. My God such a pretty view. I looked at him as if we were to part tomorrow. No look of sadness in his eyes, simply a loving gaze to the future.

The water was still, my heart was beating fast, he held my hand tight, sweat dripping down his forehead. Perfect timing for a sangria I thought. How cliché. The dark man holding a sangria jug all morning is about to make another sale. So we sat, drinking sangria. Staring at the picture perfect view of the sun, sand and water. How they all complement each other.

Do I complement him? Does he think I'm the sand? Ahh...I hope not. He could live without sand. But he can't possibly live without water. Then again he can't live without the sun either.
What am I to him?

I sat. I drank a little bit more.
I kept thinking.
My head is spinning just a little bit.
I think the sangria man put just a tad too much red wine.
Water or Sun?

Does it matter? He needs both in his life. Could I possibly mean so much to him that I am both the sun and water.
He finished his sangria. He is a big man. I'm pretty sure he finished it awhile ago.
Should I ask him if he thinks I'm the water or sun? or errr...sand?

He stood up. He said the sun was too bright and hot he will go for a swim to cool off. He took his top off and asked if I wanted to join. Lucky I've got my bikini underneath. He carried me so I didn't have to walk on hot sand.

I couldn't take it any longer. I had to ask him. So I did.

He said "You are my sun, you bring me warmth with your smile, hugs and kisses, you are my water, you calm me down whenever I feel down or when I'm having a bad day, and most importantly you are my sand. Nobody really cares about sand, they stick on you and you carry them all the way home and it takes forever to get rid of it, but to me, it's like all those little things you do, your little habits, the ones you don't even remember doing, like how you constantly repeat yourself when you're telling a story, how you complain about your hair every second day. Those tiny things make you who you are, they actually make me laugh thinking about how naive you can be sometimes, they're so petty yet I can't forget about them.
but I love that about you. You are my sand. Even after we leave San Sebastian, I will still carry some sand, much like I will carry this moment with you and your silly question."

There was my answer.

Baby, Honey, Darling

I couldn't cry last night. I really wanted to but my eyes had no spare tears to make me feel better.
Not even a drop of tear. I closed my eyes really hard and tried to squeeze the tears out.
I had to be satisfied with a blank stare. An empty stare. A foolish heart. Once again I let my heart take a beating, and boy was it a tough one. But now I've found my place. and it is not with him. Yet this is a lonely dedication to him.

Baby, you and I look great together. Your hug is perfect for this miserable weather.
Out of all the people, I secretly hoped it would be you, who would take the lead and together we can conquer the world.
You smiled, I looked deep into your eyes, and there it is, paradise. Built just for us. When you took me by the hand, that's when I surrendered everything of me to you.

Honey, when you let go of my hand and went the other way, I closed my eyes and ran for cover.
I waited for your return but you never did, so I said hello to darkness and goodbye to sunshine.
It happened so quick, you came, built me shelter and you burned it down before I could even rest my tired eyes.

Darling, I am too tired to lift my head up. I just want to sit here and hold the nothingness that once was something. You changed your tune so I pressed mute. My whole life stopped. I thought you loved me. I really did. And my heart will eventually learn to forget how you loved me.

Blinded by what they call crystals

Reading my past writings, it is safe to assume I am such a depressing person! but I'm NOT! for some reason pain is much more easier to describe in words than joy.
My joy is shared with my family and friends, leaving no room for me to write.
My pain haunts me, as AFI wrote in their song "This time imperfect", pain really "cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams".

Just when I think I've experienced enough heartbreaks, another one comes along, yet it doesn't mean I've given up on HOPE. I'm positive I'm coming closer to meeting the one after all these trials and errors!! Then again sometimes I think to myself, "Why does having someone really matter?" well the answer to me is simple. I want to love and be loved. And I do believe having the right person for me will make MY life complete. Nobody else, but MY life. Some people don't feel the need to have somebody, some people might find company can suffocate or hinder them for achieving their personal/professional goals in life.

For me, I simply feel that I am ready to commit and give everything I can for someone I absolutely care about. I like the idea of spoiling someone and of course I love being spoiled too!!! I know they say don't look for love, but if I don't look that means I'm not trying to get what I want. Hmm...

Anyway, I'll stop ranting and sing along to AFI for now.

"This time imperfect" is one of my all time favorite AFI songs, the full lyrics go:

I cannot leave here, I cannot stay,
Forever haunted, more than afraid,
Asphyxiate on words I would say,
I'm drawn to a blackened sky as I turn blue,

There are no flowers, no not this time,
There'll be no angels gracing the lines,
Just these stark words, I find,
I'd show a smile, but I'm too weak,
I'd share with you could I only speak,
Just how much this, hurts me,


I cannot stay here, I cannot leave,
Just like all I loved, I'm make-believe,
Imagined heart, I disappear,
Seems...no one will appear here and make me real,

There are no flowers, no, not this time,
There will be no angels gracing the lines,
Just these stark words I find,
I'd show a smile, but I'm too weak,
I'd share with you could I only speak,
Just how much this hurts me,

I'd tell you how it haunts me,
I'd tell you how it haunts me,
(cuts through my day, and sinks into my dreams)
I'd tell you that it haunts me,
(cuts through my day, and sinks into my dreams)
You don't care that it haunts me,

Oh!
There are no flowers, no, not this time,
There will be no angels gracing the lines,
Just these stark words I find,
I'd show a smile, but I'm too weak,
I'd share with you could I only speak,
Just how much this hurts me,
Just how much this hurts me,
Just how much you...

Let's drink to pain!

Just like the majority of people I know, I have experienced numerous counts of heartbreaks and met gazillion dickheads who caused me grief.

I seem to have had my fair share of colorful men who have done enough damage for me to write about it.
It used to really affect me. I used to always wonder "Why me? Why do I have to meet all these assholes? What did I do wrong to deserve this? I've been nothing but nice!"

Why, What, How????

I DON'T KNOW AND NOBODY KNOWS EITHER!!!

there was my answer.

You don't belong in my brain

I started writing this about a week ago, all of a sudden flashbacks of my past came back to haunt. I guess my mind hasn't been occupied with work lately so for some stupid reason my brain decides to check back on my past to stimulate my mind. It ended in tears.

I have grown up, but I am still trying to forget. I thought I have forgotten.
This one is called

"You don't belong in my brain"


You stabbed my heart to prove a point.
I validated my pain through endless tears.
You gave me enough paper to roll a joint.
I'm ailing and carrying a bag full of fears.

I made it through another night hating you.
Oh how I want to get rid of the memories of us.
I must say I despise myself for missing you.
Oh how you hurt me and betrayed my trust.

This darkness will eventually go away they say.
Your scent, your flesh, your face needs to leave me.
Nonetheless I am writing about you, much to my dismay.
The ending is present, yet the past just won't set me free.

I am gone

It has been such a long time since I've been inspired to write, this is mainly due to the fact I've taken a new job and decided to ditch my usual 'scribble on a piece of paper' habit.
Finally, my brain has finally switched off work mode and switched on inspired mode.

Many past experiences of mine have made me Oh so sensitive and moody (I was also told that my mood swing is due to a Full Moon hovering over Melbourne in the last few days).
Isn't it just lovely playing the blame game?
"I'm moody cause i've got my period" is a classic blame game example. Yeah blame your hormones. I'm with ya! stupid cow.

I will dabble on my past experiences another time, it is past midnight now..I really should try to get some sleep...haven't had a 5 hour sleep in ages, let alone a proper sleep!

This writing is called 'I am gone' and it was written about 10 minutes ago. I was just thinking about moving on from my past relationships and guys I dated, and how deep down, I want to know if they still keep a bit of me with me as I do with them.
I want to know if I actually meant something to them or if I was just another forgettable girl.
Oh yes I think wayyy too much!!!

"I am gone"

I tried so hard to let memories of you slip away
yet you, and the stupid beautiful things you did kept crawling back
So I bang my head to the wall and let it bruise
At least it distracts me from thinking about you too much
Well aren't you lucky for having a prime time slot in my brain
It pains me to know you have moved on, no i'm not bitter

I guess you were stronger or perhaps you just never gave a damn
Wonder if thoughts of me cross your mind every now and then
I couldn't give you what you wanted, that much I know
At least we had some great moments, didn't we?
Well I am the one second guessing our relationship
It pains me to learn you found someone else, no i'm not bitter
