- Waiting.

There is no time to wait. Time ways nothing. Weighting is tiresome if you have run patience out.

If you don't know where you are going, what does it matter which path you choose?

You ask me,

now, what?

I say, nothing.

It is what it is. What was can never be. What will be can never be.


So, what now?

This.

- I look at a few photographs and while I'm smiling, I can feel myself inching slowly towards sadness, thinking, I want that too.

What does it mean?

I haven't had a good night's sleep in the last I-don't-know-how-many-nights. I've been having strange dreams lately, sometimes nightmares too. In the middle of last night, I woke up with a shudder, literally. I couldn't remember the nightmare, but I felt scared. I have the tendency of recurring dreams and nightmares. Maybe I'll have it again tonight.

The dream that I do remember involved two other people, a boy and a girl. The girl wants to go meet some other boy and the boy in my dream doesn't approve. I seem to have a thing for this boy and find myself stuck between two. It's late and the girl wants to spend the night with the guy and I say, let her do what she wants to do. The boy doesn't want this to happen because he knows the other boy is a not-so-decent boy and I say, well, maybe you can meet him for lunch tomorrow. And I'm torn. We are in someone's room and there's ice-cream (considering how much I love ice-cream, not surprised that it appears in my dream). I'm trying to mend the situation by deflecting the tension onto deciding on what ice-cream each of them wants, when it gets cold in the room and I wake up to draw the curtains and lower the speed of the fan.

The other dream I was in love with a professor and he's in love with me and everyone knows about it and is happy about it, only, I need to finish my degree in order to 'officially' be with him. Oh boy.

What does it mean? It means I need a new strip of sleeping pills.

Why you should stay awake.

(One of) the things about it (is)
Drowned out by the (moral baseline)
Feel it in your skull
Tearing through your sad (line)
Embarrassing
Someone will notice

Your boat will sink

Your plane will tip to the side
No one will cry
When they pick up the pieces
On your mind
That you hardly used

(Pissed up awake)


(I can see)

Don't even try
(Will you hear)
There will be consequences

Stay up

Stay awake

I'm thinking about that one time

The suffering that will never fade
The horrible repercussions
The memory stays but the marker fades

It could be seen (as your fault)

Your heart bleeding on me
Whilst I dream of some good (days)
Bad days waiting there for morning

How could I explain a thing

That you drew on my face?

What when.

What when I wake up and don't find you here?
Here where you made me smile.
How it has changed me.
The mirror doesn't reflect what used to be.


But you see what used to be.
You love what was and is.
Though time hurried away
to reach where we didn't want to be,
You stayed like you promised.

You stayed though they said you could get it too,
You stayed hoping you caught it before I finished
You stayed with my hand held tight,
You stayed and didn't wake up after my last breath.

St. Patrick's Day.

No, its not St. Patrick's Day. This song makes me feel differently at different times. One of the most beautiful songs ever.

Here comes the cold
Break out the winter clothes
And find a love to call your own
You - enter you
Your cheeks a shade of pink
And the rest of you in powder blue

Who knows what will be

But I'll make you this guarantee

No way November will see our goodbye

When it comes to December it's obvious why
No one wants to be alone at Christmas time

In the dark, on the phone

You tell me the names of your brothers
And your favorite colors
I'm learning you
And when it snows again
We'll take a walk outside
And search the sky
Like children do
I'll say to you

No way November will see our goodbye

When it comes to December it's obvious why
No one wants to be alone at Christmas time
And come January we're frozen inside
Making new resolutions a hundred times
February, won't you be my valentine?

And we'll both be safe 'til St. Patrick's Day


We should take a ride tonight around the town

and look around at all the beautiful houses
something in the way that blue lights on a black night
can make you feel more
everybody, it seems to me, just wants to be
just like you and me


No one wants to be alone at Christmas time

Come January we're frozen inside
Making new resolutions a hundred times
February, won't you be my valentine?

And if our always is all that we gave

And we someday take that away
I'll be alright if it was just 'til St. Patrick's Day
