leap of faith

It's 29 feb.

supposed to be a special day, once in every four years... yet i think the only special feeling i get is how unspecial the day is.. hmm. in any case, i always think too much.

yes. It's 29 feb and i have been waiting, am waiting and will be waiting..

patience is a virtue.

If love is a book

If love is a book...

borrowed
in those hands
the book
not rightfully owned

If love is a book...

renewed
fruitless aim to prolong
a past
Passed. Expired.

If love is a book...

returned
savoured or rejected
no quite how
it used to be.

If love is a book...

for reference only
you've skimmed through all the pages
long to bring it home
on the shelf it sadly stays

[I am only a book
handle me with care]

i always seem to post on valentine's day

hc's vday seems much more... eventful than ny's. in ny yeah u still see a lot of pple giving stuff and receiving gifts and but in hc it's like... the moment i stepped into the canteen i saw flowers and into the rw it was bursting w helium balloons. basically the whole day was pretty pink and red...hmm. is it the age or the presence of the opp sex? maybe both....

poor blog. it's so abandoned. thus posting on vday is v appropriate...

afraid of entering the river. u never know when there's an undercurrent.
yet on land, longing for the flow of the water embracing my skin...
keeping dry is safer but no one knows what the future holds... and staying on land u miss the opportunity to find out..
perhaps stayed underwater for too long; i've forgotten how to breathe.

t(h)rust me

how do one decide when or not to trust someone? at what point, when what invisible barrier is crossed do you let your soul pour out? such a dangerous act, we don't even realise till someone betrays your trust.

i don't understand the idea of reciprocating. does it even exist? should one expect it? the thing about expectations is that when you hope for something and in the end the hope falls through the hurt and the pain's greater.... should reciprocating exist? in sort of a negative way, people refer to it as an eye for an eye... but there's also reciprocating acts of kindness, or love, or trust. yeah sure, it's often said in tv serial dramas, just because you love someone doesn't mean the person must love you too. it's so so sad. =( i so pity Jacob in the twilight series ok. was crazy over edward cullen for a while too but i think know im standing on Jacob's side. at least until I finish eclipse...

expectations. im reminded of the equation again. happiness = reality/expectations. H = R/E. so when you have no expectations or E = 0, the whole equation becomes undefined and happiness can't exist. bit if expectations r too high happiness will just be a very small fraction edging close to 0...

I never betrayed you. If you want to think that way then so be it but the mere idea of you choosing to believe others instead... i don't know. it makes me wonder if all along i've been creating everything myself and everything was unreal. nothing ever happened.

et tu brute?
