How far back should I have to go?
Tell me.
Everything is
So painfully vivid.
The truth is,
We couldn't understand each other at all
So I left and didn't look back.
Fall into a light sleep
It encompasses my very being
I never carry out my promises
So long ago,
I threw away my brightness
And like the light from the morning sun,
It can never return.
It lies beside this cold heart
Frozen
So completely mindless
That it persists forever.
Numbly, I gather the remnants of my emotions
And searching for redemption.
I fall into a light sleep
On a lonely night
I'm beginning to learn the designs of sorrow
The hiding away
Of your warm presence
Makes me fear the overflowing darkness.
Update!!
i've never been the clingy type (well, i think so) but when i look at my life closely i did figure out that i actually am, not in the sense of intimacy or even on objects or even on people, more on stuff that i did not do. yes, this is where the "things-i-should-have-done" and "things-that-i-should-have-never-have-done" comes to mind. i seem to really get stuck on those regrets; regrets that i should have voiced this thought or regrets that i should have done this instead. they keep on running and running through my head that i seem to forget that i should be living my life as of right now. i so wanted to move on and forget about those but it seems as if that whenever i took a step forward after that i took one step backward in which i end up not moving at all. i end up having nothing and getting stuck. it is so hard and frustrating but i can't help it. i am aware of the problem yet i can't do anything about it. i wanted closure on some stuff in my life. i wanted it so badly i could taste it.
i sure hope that one of this days, i'll look back at this and say: "finally". i promise myself that i will keep on trying until i succeed. so till then, i need to bear it.
Oppss.. I Forgot.
Words I Couldn't Say
In a book, in a box, in the closet
In a line, in a song I once heard
In a moment on a front porch late one June
In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon.
There it was at the tips of my fingers
There it was on the tip of my tongue
There you were and I had never been that far
There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms
And I let it all slip away.
What do I do now that you're gone
No back up plan, no second chance
And no one else to blame
All I can hear in the silence that remains
Are the words I couldn't say.
There's a rain that will never stop fallin'
There's a wall that I tried to take down
What I should have said just wouldn't pass my lips
So I held back and now we've come to this
And it's too late now.
I should have found the way to tell you how I felt
Now the only one I'm telling is myself.
