looking out the window,
she wonders why it's dark.
a few pinpricks in the night
barely showing its light.


her eyes puffy
and her face
a myriad of blues
and greens,
she looks at the flower in her
hand
she stares


a pool forms.
of water, of blood
who knows? who cares?


a slight smile.
a flutter of lashes.
the flower falls,
crushed.

But You Didn't


Remember the day I borrowed your brand new car and I dented it?
I thought you'd kill me, but you didn't.


And remember the time I dragged you to the beach, and you said it would rain, and it did?
I thought you'd say, "I told you so." But you didn't.


Do you remember the time I flirted with all the guys to make you jealous, and you were?
I thought you'd leave me, but you didn't.


Do you remember the time I spilled strawberry pie all over your car rug?
I thought you'd hit me, but you didn't.


And remember the time I forgot to tell you the dance was formal and you showed up in jeans?
I thought you'd drop me, but you didn't.


Yes, there were lots of things you didn't do,But you put up with me, and you loved me, and you protected me.


There were lots of things I wanted to make up to you when you returned from Viet Nam.


But you didn't.

the darkened room,
scattered papers.
windows closed,
door ajar.
a girl swirled
in the musty shadows
of time,
unnoticed.

Saturday, April 22, 2006 3:59 PM

memories fly past swiftly
and my happiness goes with them
i reach out
but its gone
and the world caves in on me


n all i do is hide in the toilet n cry

Thursday, April 20, 2006 8:21 PM

Wednesday, April 19, 2006 5:47 PM

im horridified. lit. weight. glosso. pimples. guitar. ushering. parents-teacher meeting.


n tts just the main stuff. can i cry? why do bad things all come in one whole big lump, springing a surprise attack on u when u least expect it, pummeling you continually, never giving you a breather till you think you cant make it anymore before it finally ebbs away only to return a few days later. grr. therefore i have coined a new word. horridified! haha. sad larh. cant wait for things to lighten up. lalalalala. but actually i love lit. i dont mind my weight. i cant wait for glosso. i love the guitar. i think ushering is cool. just tt i dont see anything nice about parents-teacher meeting and pimples. they just go hand in hand. haiz.

Sunday, April 16, 2006 9:04 PM

Silent was the Night


silent was the night in dark gethsemane
the Saviour knelt to pray in deep humility
quiet were the stars that once had sung
the birds all hushed their singing
as the Lamb prepared to die


worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb
worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb


silent was the night beneath the olive trees
the Saviour cries alone, His heart in agony
soon the noise of hate will echo
and the silence will be broken
by shouts of "crucify!"


worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb
worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb


lonesome winds began to blow
tears began to fall as Jesus took the bitter cup
and chose to drink it all
"Father, let Thy will be done"
He prayed in deepest grief
with grace He rose to face the night
then turned toward Calvary


worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb
worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb
worthy is the Lamb

clouds, though alone in the bare blue sky, will never be lonely, for the sparrows will fly near them, bringing cheer into their lives, and warming their hearts, making the world a much better place to be in. smile.

little baby steps are what matters. theyre the essence of everything. if huge leaps are taken, sure, great distance is covered, but it all becomes superficial. for as always, its the little things in life that matters. stumbling and falling. theyre all part of life. they help us grow and learn. without them, we will never be able to know what life is all about. yet why do we hate it so much? are we that short-sighted that we are unable to realise what good it does to us? i dont know what im talking about. ohwells.

Monday, April 10, 2006 9:07 PM

whywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhy. just want to scream. shriek. jump. dance. go completely wild. but as usual. all i can do, is sit in a corner. and cry. stupidstupidstupidstupidstupidstupidstupidstupidstupidstupidstupidstupid. so many things left unsaid. so many feelings left unvoiced. and all i can do. is nothing. shoot me.

3:57 PM

im so sorry that this is happening. wont u reconsider? dont u think its a waste? and what about her? have you ever spared a thought for her feelings? though im just an outsider, trying to give my two cents worth, but i really dont want to see the two of you apart. really. can you bear to give her up? yes i know that you're feeling sad and troubled now, but isnt the happiness more then the unhappiness? dont u love her? i dont understand. seriously. i cant help others. i cant help myself. i cant help YOU. yes YOU. (not the earlier one)

Thursday, April 06, 2006 5:28 PM

i wish it would rain forever. the water beating down on u. the wind whipping your exposed body. the thunder creating a lovely drumbeat. the lightning splitting the sky in half. the wonderful blue-grey sky. standing. with arms outstretched. eyes closed. head back. the music of the rain. beautiful sounds. cool washing. of earth and soul. peeling away layers of my facade. and i can be truly me.


yet. if it were to rain forever. the sunshine will never come. no warm rays to dry my fears and tears. the special feeling of rain will too be lost. turned bland by the constant water flow. the cool refreshing after-rain air will never come about. how then can i fulfill my wish?

Wednesday, April 05, 2006 8:22 PM

i feel weird.

Tuesday, April 04, 2006 10:26 PM

singing my tuneless song,
i go on my way,
down life's many different sways.
to everything there is a season.


rivers past,
and mountains gone.
going through life's bustling throng.
to everything there is a time.


stars that twinkle,
in the nightsky,
lead the wanderer nigh.
for every purpose under heaven.


friends so dear,
held so close.
memories shared and tears flowed.
there is a time, a proper time.

Monday, April 03, 2006 9:02 PM

please go to my wonderful senior's blog. i lurve xueling. haha. shes such a nice person. n she has put my feelings down for me. so i dont need to blog. yay. hahas.

Sunday, April 02, 2006 3:52 PM

Lord, as i seek Your guidance for the day,
i find my thoughts unyielding,
confusion crowds my way.
but then when i bow to You,
the challenges You guide me through,
Your promises are ever new,
i claim them for today.


Your will cannot lead me,
where your grace will not keep me.
Your hand will protect me,
i rest in Your care.
Your eyes will watch over me,
Your love will forgive me.
and when i am faltering,
i still will find You there.


each new day's design
is chartered by Your hand,
and graciously revealed
as i seek Your master plan.
keep my footsteps faithful,
when from You i go,
return me to the joy
that Your blessings can bestow.


Your will cannot lead me,
where Your grace will not keep me.
Your hand will protect me,
i rest in Your care.
Your eyes will watch over me,
Your love will forgive me,
and when i am faltering,
i still will find You there.


Your eyes will watch over me,
Your love will forgive me,
and when i am faltering,
i still will find You there.
