In believing we live more

It makes me cry seeing that only when a person is about to die will she be really appreciated by those she loved. In death all that we ever thought important becomes nothing but a forgotten memory buried with a lifeless body. In a way, many of us are barely breathing as we struggle with the harsh realities that we face each day. Still, there are many things that we ought to be grateful for. Beyond what we feel and what we see, there is a certain joy in knowing that all the best is yet to come.

Hangover

With one drink
I lost my perspective
The silence broken
Full of the face
I've supposedly forgotten.

this stranger broke my heart

have you ever known a stranger
who knows you inside out
the one who could make you laugh
without a doubt.

a stranger who knows your dreams
and what's in your heart
he taught you so many things
even from the start.

more than what he's stolen
how can a stranger make you cry
and left you so broken
long after he said goodbye.

there's a stranger who I know
from a distant time
not really a stranger long ago
coz once he was mine.

hiding in your heart

what are you doing now
are you still the same
can't you tell how
my world's turning back
somehow?

what places have you seen
did you wander around
and remember things about me
wonderful memories abound
swimming in the sea?

how many times did you try
to search me in your dreams
then look at me in the eye
and say you're missing me
like crazy?

our minds have chosen
a future of delusions
only to be broken
by destined confusions.

where your heart admits
only with me
you'll forever commit
for we are meant to be.
finally.

Mga one-liners ng kahapon

Sa buhay natin, may mga "one-liners" mula sa mga taong mahal at minahal natin ang mananatiling nakatatak sa ating isipan. Mga linyang maaaring walang halaga para sa iba. Ngunit nagbigay naman ng kakaibang ligaya sa atin sa mga panahong nasabi nila 'yon. Lumipas man ang mga taon, mawala man sila sa ating buhay, naroon pa rin ang kanilang alaala. Bubuhayin sa mga oras na 'di inaasahan. Kay sayang balikan. Mapapangiti ka na lang kahit na ikaw ay mag-isa.

Dito natin mas mauunawaan kung bakit sa kabila ng mga kalungkutang pinagdaraanan o narasan ay patuloy tayong nagmamahal ng lubusan. Dahil sa mga tawanang hindi matutumbasan ng ano mang bagay. Masasabi natin sa ating sarili na "he/she's worth everything that's happened to me." Lupet pakinggan!

Ang sarap namang magmahal lalo na kung walang pagduda sa iyong puso na tanging ikaw rin lang ang binubulong ng sa kanya. Walang nakahadlang na balakid na mas magpapasakit sa mga pagsubok na darating. Kung maaari lang turuan ang pusong huwag dumurog ng ibang damdamin. Di sana'y wala ng masasaktan ng sobra-sobra. Manananatili ang tila isang panaginip na pagmamahalang walang hanggan.

Kaya lang "ganon talaga" - mga salitang para sa akin ay naglalaman ng lungkot at pagdurusa. Katotohanang hindi madadaya ng kahit anong pagkukunwari. Hindi man madali ang paglimot at pagbangon, ngunit asahan natin ang isa namang scientipikong katotohanan na pagkatapos ng mahabang magdamag ay masisilayan rin ang luwinag ng bukas. Unti-unti'y makakamtan ang pangako ng tunay na pag-ibig. Buksan mo ang iyong mga mata sa tunay na magmamahal o matagal ng nagmamahal sa iyo.

At ang mga one-liners ng kahapon ay hindi nariyan para magbigay ng kalungkutan kundi para magpaalala lamang ng mas maraming dahilan kung dapit ngayon ikaw ay masaya, wala ng iba.

Kaya walang rason para ito'y kalimutan. So ikaw, ano'ng paboritong one-liner mo?

the insanity of it

When you've lost everything
You learn to fight for what you want
No easily giving up
Though life seems to break apart
Including your heart.

Maybe in their eyes
You're an enemy
For standing in-between
But from what I've seen
You're just a woman who loves deeply
Hopelessly.

When there's nothing left
You cry your eyes out
Can't even shut the pain
Driving yourself insane.

You stare in a blank wall
Down in hell you fall
No way to understand
The things you left behind.

Then you try to deny
But it's not right
Gotta stop the fight
Let it all fly high.

It's not too bad to be sad
Giving your all made you fall
But again you'll stand
And you'll know
It's the only way to grow.

I'll be okay

Saw a video of this song on YOUTUBE, a soundtrack from My Bestfriend's Wedding, but used for Addison's video clips (Grey's). I loved the song. I've learned to love Addison's character on the said show, so there. I can really relate to this song. It's so me. For the ones I've deeply loved. I'll be okay. :)

I'LL BE OKAY- AMANDA MARSHALL

Verse 1
Its time to let ya go
it's time to say good-bye
there's no more excuses
no more tears to cry

there's been so many changes
i was so confused
all along you were the one
all the time i never knew

i want ya to be happy
you're my best friend
but its so hard to let ya go now
what could have been
I'll always have the memories
she'll always have you
fate has a way of changing
just when you don't want it to

Chorus
throw away the chains
let love fly away
till love comes again
I'll be okay

Verse 2
life passes so quickly
ya gotta take the time
you'll miss what really matters
you'll miss all the signs
I've spent my life searchin
for what was always there
sometimes it will be too late
sometimes it wont be fair

Chorus
Throw away the chains
Let love fly away
Till love comes again
I'll be okay

Bridge
I wont give up
I wont give in
I can't recreate
What just might have been
I know that my heart
Will find love again
Now is the time to begin

Throw away the chains
Let love fly away
Till love comes again
I'll be okay
I'll be okay
I'll be okay

Can't hold on forever baby,
Can't hold on forever baby,
Can't hold on forever baby,
I'll be okay
