Songs for You, Truths for Me

I don’t know where I crossed the line
Was it something that I said
Or didn’t say this time
And I don’t know if it’s me or you
But I can see the skies are changing
In all the shades of blue
And I don’t know which way it’s gonna go

If it’s gonna be a rainy day
There’s nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won’t stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter ’til it’s done
We can make this last forever
So please don’t stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don’t stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don’t stop the rain

I thought that time was on our side
I’ve put in far too many years
To let this pass us by
You see life is a crazy thing
There’ll be good time and there’ll be bad times
And everything in between
And I don’t know which way it’s gonna go

If it’s gonna be a rainy day
There’s nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won’t stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter ’til it’s done
We can make this last forever
So please don’t stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don’t stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don’t stop the rain

Oh we’re a little closer now
And finding what life’s all about
Yeah I know you just can’t stand it
When things don’t go your way
But we’ve got no control over what happens anyway

If it’s gonna be a rainy day
There’s nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won’t stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter ’til it’s done
We can make this last forever
So please don’t stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don’t stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don’t stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Can’t stop it, can’t stop it, just can’t stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Let it fall, please don’t stop the rain

Someday, Someone, Somehow…

Sometimes when you want something to work so badly, your heart overrides your mind to create a web of stories reinforcing your belief that nothing is wrong with that setup in your relationship. You’re content and that is all that matters.

But somewhere at the back of your mind, a nagging feeling that something is missing, occasionally creeps up on you and ruins the illusion your heart created. Then one day, you wake up with the cold realization that you were never completely happy with that situation and the only way to rectify it will be to end it then and there.

It’ll hurt for sure, actually it’ll hurt like hell, but doing nothing about getting yourself out of it will cause more damage to yourself and your sanity. And like a band aid that’s been removed, the pain’ll be harsh but at least it’ll end. It might not be today, it might not even be next month but one day it definitely will.

Then you get to chalk this one up as another of life’s lesson that can only be effectively learned through experience. Harsh but reality never was one to hand out lollipops and balloons. It’s more of an S & M relationship, really.

Anyway, moving on with your life will be up to you.

In Times of Need

I Will Not Go With This Flow

I consider myself lucky this happened on a saturday and NOT last friday. Or else I’d still be stuck in FMC.

Although the creek that usually lies sedately near the entrance of our village increased at an alarming rate to a waist deep water level, at least the cable tv, broadband internet connection, electric and water supply were still intact. But to be on the safe side I made sure my laptop, 2 mobile phones, iPod and NDS were fully charged lest we experience another Typhoon Katrina episode rerun.

It’s Another Yesterday

Glee!

And I love it! You’d never realize that being a GLeek would be this much fun.

Oh No.

i like fast cars and candy bars, like you. i like staying out and sleeping in, like you. when you get so close to me i don’t know what to do. it’s like boom, like boom, like boom.

i like milkshake and lots of cakes, like you. i like wolverine and james dean, like you. my pulse shoot straight up to the moon when your in the room. it’s like boom, like boom, like boom. and its all because of you.

my friends say i’m crazy. they all try to save me but there is nothing they can do. it’s just what i’m addicted to.

i like blue jeans and trampolines, like you. i like cartoons and full moons, like you. it doesn’t matter what you say cause everything you do it’s like boom, like boom, like boom.

i like 808’s and chocolate cake, like you. i like saturdays what i say i like you. my pulse shoot straight up to the moon when your in the room. it’s like boom like boom like boom. and it’s all because of you.

what can i say? what can i do? everything is louder when i’m next to you. feels like i’m shaking, room is earthquaking, feels like the whole world is 8-0-8-ing.

* * *

This can NOT and should NOT continue. Ever. Because I know I’ll only get hurt by you. But I might as well go blind, deaf, mute, and brain dead for all the good it’s getting me. You’re like an addiction I can’t get out my system no matter how hard I try to go cold turkey. Whenever you’re within my line of vision, it’s as if all my senses are zeroed in on you and I find it hard to focus on anything but you.

The End Is Near: 09.09.09

I saw this posted at the door of a bus on that very same date (September 9, 2009) while I was on my way home from work, not knowing that statement was actually referring to my new mobile phone.

No. I won’t blame the person who was indirectly responsible for this situation. Although, I probably won’t answer any more of his calls. After all, there is a reason why people are not available to answer any phone calls during certain times. Like maybe they are on their way home. Commuting. Alone. Late at night. While it was Raining! Dude, get a hint. It’s called UNABLE to answer your call for a very good reason. When that happens, don’t keep calling over and over again unless someone died or lost a body part, preferably the finger you used to dial my number.

Also, I believe in Karma. It’ll come back to haunt the people who didn’t return my phone when I discovered that it was missing for less than 10 minutes. May you realize what you did. Afterall, you are still human beings with (hopefully) a fully functioning conscience.
