The Dragon and the Star

The dragon laying in his cave,
with yonder star his heart enslaved.
Diamonds and pearls and angel's hair,
with beauty far could scarce compare.
So the dragon flew as dragons fly,
away and up to the starry sky.
To join the star in sweet romance,
fleeting together in celestial dance.

Life and Love

If you ever give your heart to me,
I'd keep it in a box.
And take my heart out too,
and keep it under lock.
So though sight may fail and body fade,
and times today may pass away.
Our beating hearts may together chime,
ticking down the sands of time.
In this precious space may ever hold,
the greatest story of love untold.
And when time itself may come to rest,
and life itself is second best,
then destiny and fate may close entwine,
and your precious love be ever mine.

Full Circle

Its funny you know.. sometimes.. when you feel like talking about something.. but the situation somehow doesnt really work out the way you anticipated.. it kinda defuses the whole purpose of the intention in the first place. I wanted to blog about a little inspiration of truth that suddenly dawned on me.. but blogger took so damn long to sign in.. the inspiration was kinda diluted. Nonetheless.. i must speak my piece before i rest.. otherwise this revelelation might be lost to me for good. You know people are really interesting creatures.. they will forsake all sorts of things for something they truly believe in. Is it stupid? Maybe. Is it worth it? Who knows.. who cares even. Who cares.. I care. Am i the only one? I used to care. Screw it? Screw it. Damn. I still care. Damn me. How does a person feel like the world is so distant even when he's in the middle of it? How does the purpose of his being feel so unfulfilled even when he has everything? Love is a funny thing. It can make the wisest of men feel like a fool.. and the most astute of judges brook partiality. Damn me. Why me. Does it matter? It does to me. I think... maybe.. when it seems things are coming full circle.. the truth takes centre stage... Chance has come and gone.. now all thats left is Hope.. and Faith... and Truth.. and Love.. and the Beauty of a memory.. Full circle? Yes.. all things have come full circle.. Now all that is left.. are those.

The Circles are Closing

I don't know if anyone reads here anymore, but it doesnt matter really. Thinking back to when i started this little blog... so many things have changed. Life sure is beautiful. Now that im going over to London for a year or so.. i have begun to look at things anew.. like a person whose life is ending.. but granted the grace to set things right before the end. I realised in my life that i have not really shown much appreciation for all the people around me... that perhaps one of your utterances were indeed true. But im glad i have been given this period of grace to set things right. Everything exists in constant dynamism, because we take for granted the time we have to see things through. But as the end approaches.. sometimes maybe regret for things both done and undone set in. That is why i feel fortunate to be given such a chance to realise this so early.. and the time in which to close these circles of my life. Friends. Family. The people who have entered my life.. one way or another.. though none of you may read this.. i want to thank all of you for everything you have done for me.. and i want to apologise for all the times i have not been able to provide you what i could.. one way or another. I wish every one of you all the best in life.. and til we meet again. Take care, God bless and have fun.


Cheerios! =)

Destiny awaits

Swept away by a storm of my choosing
Into the heights i fly
To touch the stars and heavens
above the endless sky

Seventh Heaven

Its such a nice place. =) Unfortunately, the time which i can remain there is transient. Sigh. The mountain came, and was conquered. With ease. I have to look for more mountains to climb, and more challenges to overcome. Perhaps, I think to myself, one day i'll climb a mountain to heaven. And finally get to remain there. Free... without the shackles of this mortal coil. Ah....

For now though, I'm at a major crossroads in my life. I wish that perhaps i knew 5 years ago what i knew now, that i could have come to this crossroad earlier, instead of wasting those years wandering in the waste. But i guess the worst kind of regret is not for what you did, but for what you didnt do. So many things left undone, yet so many other things achieved. Would i have traded what i have now for what i could have had? That's a very hard question to answer. Mebbe with hindsight in yet another 5 years i will find the answer. For now, all i can do is continue walking. Which way though? Which way...

Its almost time.

Within the next 3 months, i will go through what will probably be the hardest yet the most exhilarating part of my university life. They say that there is always a lull, a period of utter and complete silence, before a storm breaks. Now is that lull. Have i prepared myself? Yes. In all the ways i could. Am i ready? That i really don't know. Perhaps i need more convincing. Perhaps i need to believe more. To trust in something utterly and completely beyond my control. In the end, i can truly look back and say that i have truly given my all for this. Whatever the consequences. Now all i need is some convincing. To convince myself that indeed i have chosen the right course. More so, i need to find companions to walk with me on this road less travelled, who are willing to shoot for the stars with me.. The strength of one is not enough.. The further i proceed along this path, the less people i see around me.. and the more people i see falling by the wayside, having found a place on this road where they are content to remain. I cannot.. not because i do not want to.. im very tired already.. but because the destination i see is far more beautiful than anything that i have come across on this road.. So i willingly plod along, waving goodbye to my happy friends i leave behind.. and just keep on walking.. hoping at least to catch a glimpse of the destination i started towards when i finally reach my journey's end..
