points of note:

1. i took a major test of faith yesterday, n looked at my n roques pics while in bed last nite. prior to last nite, i hadnt really looked at nething roque-related since tatto n i got back talkin to each together again....i felt a wave of warmth immediately come over me. my face softened. my heart lightened. n my mouth involuntarily shaped itself into a smile. i ran my fingers slowly on the pics..his face, his hair. its like he never left. its like hes just at his place..a local call away. "hey im coming over, make sure u re up so u can open the door for me" is wat i wud say. like before..everyday before...even twice, three times a day..id meet him at the crack of dawn when mom n dad left for work..spend a few hrs w/ him, lay in bed w/ him, always huggin him close...i loved smellin his biceps especially. he d b sleepin like a baby, n id b lookin at his face intently..silently plantin kisses on his face n lips. kissin his biceps. his elaborate dragon tattoo..i still remember evything abt his tattoo. i remember evything abt roque. evything abt him..evything we talked abt.
n i dint tink of tatto the whole time.

so.

i guess its roque im missing.
i guess its roque who i love.

2. my cough has worsened to the point where the back of my throat n neck hurt even when im not coughing. im startin to really worry...there cant b a tumor in there can there? i mean im clean, my whole family is clean...nobody related has ever had a C-related illness....my grandfather lived till he was 90 somethin (he died peacefully in his sleep), all my aunts n uncles r health nuts...we have doctors, lawyers, biologists, nurses, librarians, special children educators in the family...im too disbelieving to go c the doc, plus theres jin to tink abt, which brings us to point 3.....

3. i never had to save up for a pets death before. jins never bn jst a pet to me of course, shes more like...my human baby. thats an understatement actually...jins like my daughter. n not to devalue daughters or nethin, but i wud put my life b4 hers - n i have a few times in the past. when she is gone, i wud like to keep her w/ me, as kitty is w/ us rite now..just a few feet away from my bed everyday...2 nites ago i was talkin to kitty, n i really felt her presence. to me, kitty never left...shes just in nother world, sleepin n purrin away in her new home...man i loved that cat, after all, she was w/ me for 20 years...n her sis jinny looks set to join her within this year..n i wanna make sure i have enuff money to provide her w/ the best medical care on earth durin her last wks here w/ me...i will sweat blood n tears to ensure that i do evything possible to make her journey least painful..no, i dont intend to xtend her life ne more than shes meant to live...i just want to make her comfortable, n when shes on that table, i want her to doze off to sleep like ne other day....n then i want to keep her close to me, here.

most importantly, i want to not be crying when shes dozing off..bcos she senses when i am sad, n she gets really miserable n sad too when she sees me upset..i tink she feels guilty even....bcos shes always taken it upon herself to make me smile n laugh. n she is my little wonderbaby, my big fluff of thick brown fur...i love her more than nethin on this earth, definitely more than myself...she is my world.

feelin bit morose now. i wana go for a run but my cough wont allow that.
i tink i will work on my homepage today. something productive for once...n mebe change this blogs template. or somthin.

when roque was here n i m havin a gd day, u know what id b thinkin?
i have the best bf in the world n i have the best best friend in the world
my life cudnt b better.

but then..in just one fonecall, all that got taken away. the fonecall just hrs before my bday...his mom tellin him that hes gotta quit his job n leave hk rite away. n cpl of hrs later, on my bday..i was left w/ the task of typin out roques resignatn letter.
exactly 15 days n 9 hrs later - he was gone. n i dont know when or if hes comin back........ #

i know ive been barraging my blog w/ lyrics...but i m lost. i ve lost all capability to write, or even express myself. whether its bcos im too confused/distraught/restless to paint a picture of my feelings w/ the written word rite now, or if its bcos i just dont understand what im feeling..im not so sure. but i feel really stuffed up, its like i cant decipher what im feelin, or what i wanna do, or what i dont wanna do...so forget what i should do, rite now i dont even know what to feel, i dont even feel like im in control of whats in my head, in my heart..ive always let my heart lead the way, n lead my actions..but rite now i feel so messed up, i dont even know where to start. if whether i need a breather outside of my room, or if i simply need more zzZz. or if i need to get what i need to say to tatto out of my system, or if i shud block it from ever coming out. or if i need to be w/ a friend n have her hug me n tell me that evythings gna be ok, or if i just need to be alone, away from everyone. if i shud spend some quiet time on my own, or if i shud subject my already fragile hearing drums w/ thrash music/noise. if i shud keep myself n my mind occupied, or if shud just let the feelings flow n cry/laugh/hate/love freely n openly w/ no hesitation.

it hurts to live sometimes. but it hurts even more to love. its so ironic how love is like the greatest, most powerful thing on earth..it can move mountains n split oceans...it can completely transform lives, n turn the dead into the living. yet it is the most fragile thing. so easily broken, so easily lost. u dont even know what hit u....n when u finally do make sense of whats goin on, its too late..n u r hurt n scarred forever.

i m now thinking: is it possible to b in love w/ 2 people at the same time? n love them both equally? if so, why is being w/ the both of them wrong? why is it considered goin against the law n very nature of 'true love'? #

to tatto, w/ love
yes i still love you. but i ll never admit it to you.

Are You Lonesome Tonight?
(words & music by Roy Turk and Lou Handman)

Are you lonesome tonight,
do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day
When I kissed you and called you sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?

I wonder if you're lonesome tonight
You know someone said that the world's a stage
And each must play a part.
Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart.
Act one was when we met, I loved you at first glance
You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue
Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange
And why I'll never know.
Honey, you lied when you said you loved me
And I had no cause to doubt you.
But I'd rather go on hearing your lies
Than go on living without you.
Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there
With emptiness all around
And if you won't come back to me
Then make them bring the curtain down.

Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?

have to b up in less than 4 hrs
oh yea...i lit up today, after not havin touched ne for more than 2 wks
of course not quite a smart thing to do..given my current cough situation

but i was so depressed today
i cried in the streets again #

on a more serious note...i ve had this major, painful, constant cough stemming from the back of my throat..its been more than 5 days now...n im sorta thinkin abt the time i went to c the doc 3 wks ago, over stretched vocal chords ..which have nothin to do w/ the flu or a sore throat btw..its this horribly tortorous condition where literally no sound comes out of ur mouth whn u speak, just gasps of dry air...it really drives u mad, actually that wud b an understatement

neway, yea whn i saw the doc 3 wks ago she sorta mentioned the possibility that there mite b tumors in my throat or watever, bcos ive had vocal chord trouble many times b4...n so she recommended tht i c a specialist to make sure evythins ok
hmm the tot scared me rite away n i immediately erased whatever she said..n never thought abt it again - what, the thought of the deadly C illness was just to frightenin to even think abt, let alone consider myself havin...
well now im really worried bcos my coughin is affectin my job, n truth b told, it really hurts when i cough...it gets worse at nite i guess when the air is drier n cooler..so i try to gulp some h2o down evy once in a while..but it feels weird, i know its not a flu cough...well watever it is i jst hope it goes away soon...... #

check this out. hey i grew up on michael jackson n i love his music to bits..obviously, his earlier hits rocked sooo much better than the later ones, but u cant doubt this guys talent, ever. hes a musician, an entertainer, a great dancer..n a decent songwriter i guess...i dont love or hate him more than the average person, but its a pity we ve taken more interest in his personal life than his music, sure hes eccentric n weird but thats his bzness. i mean ive bn prayin for a long time for him to hold a concert here but no luck. oh boy id kill to watch him perform live.... #

does life have to be so hard? and why do people have to make it harder than it already is?
u're right - its either u do, or u dont. simple as that....but people always gotta put *something* in the way of truth: pride, fear, anger, resentment..why do people want to make things so hard? it benefits no one
am i stupid or naive to want to live simply, feel openly, express honestly? i never want to not feel. i may as well be dead.
whats even harder is to have so much to say to and feel towards the person who u want to talk to, be with, share stuff with, be honest to - but he doensnt wanna be there.
so what do u do? what can u do? #

you lure me
then fuck me
you lie to me
then hurt me
then i hurt you back
you leave me
then i hurt myself
and you hurt urself
i say sorry
and you say sorry too
you want me back
and i love you again
but you proceed to use me
as you pretend to love me back
so slowly you move
but so carefully planned
so effectively you hurt me
but thats not enough for you
you act like the victim
and me the perpetrator
you only seek revenge
and my demise
to watch me writhe in pain
before your very eyes
i can do without your games
i can do without your shitty face. #

ASLEEP
- the smiths


Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I'm tired and I
I want to go to bed

Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
And then leave me alone
Don't try to wake me in the morning
'Cause I will be gone
Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I will feel so glad to go


Sing me to sleep
Sing me to sleep
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore


Sing to me
Sing to me
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore


Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go


There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well, there must be
Well ...


Bye bye
Bye bye
Bye ... #

i feel really depressed. i feel like nobody sees that im depressed. i feel pathetic. i feel like telling someone that im depressed so s/he can tell me not to be, n s/he can give me a hug. yet ppl see me as cold, bitchy, uncaring. but im jst really hurting inside. everyone thinks im a bitch. tatto thinks im one. i hate that. im just feelin really down right now n i cant tell him that i do care for him a lot, n that i do still have feelings for him (of course ill never admit this, ill jst set myself up for heartbreak, i know it). but im feelin teary, sad, tormented n thats y im being so distant right now. i feel so alone. how did i ever end up like this? i do want to not be this way. but im not a bitch. n i do care about a lot of things, n a lot of ppl. but i dont wanna be hurt. i have been hurt so much i dont wana expect nething from neone nemore. n i dont wanna get emotional on the only friend i have in this world, bcos it drains her n thats not right. #

she destroyed me. everything good in me, everythin good about me. she destroyed my happiness...took it away from me. not only that, but shes destroyed all my good memories of nething happy.
i never knew nebody cud do that...destroy someone to the xtent that not only is the present n future totally obliterated n doomed, but the past turned totally upside down...from having meant something so good, so happy, so pure..to NOTHING. nah not nothing..but something reeking of HATE, ANGER, vileness. from everything good to everything bad, just like that. bcos of somebody elses actions. totally not ur fault, totally nothing to do with u. but shes destroyed me all the same. #

Last Kiss
- pearl jam

Where, oh where, can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me.
She’s gone to heaven, so I’ve got to be good.
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

We were out on a date in my daddy’s car.
We hadn’t driven very far.
There in the road, straight ahead.
A car was stalled, the engine was dead.

I couldn’t stop, so I swerved to the right.
I’ll never forget the sound that night.
The screamin tires, the bustin glass.
The painful scream that I heard last.

Oh where, oh where, can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me.
She’s gone to heaven, so I’ve got to be good.
So I can see my baby when I leave this world.

When I woke up the rain was pourin down.
There were people standin all around.
Something warm flowing through my eyes.
But somehow I found my baby that night.

I lifted her head, she looked at me and said:
"Hold me darling, just a little while."
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss.
I found the love that I knew I had missed.

Well now she’s gone. Even though I hold her tight.
I lost my love, my life, that night.

Oh where, oh where, can my baby be?
The Lord took her away from me.
She’s gone to heaven, so I’ve got to be good.
So I can see my baby when I leave this world. #

Libra

The Astrological Symbol of Libra is the Scales. Like the scales of Justice, Librans are objective and just. They abhor unfairness and conflict, striving above all for peace; but at times they are easily deterred from their beliefs. Librans are able to see all sides of an argument, but as their mental scales sway back and forth they may never find balance and become fickle and indecisive. Sometimes they are so eager to avoid conflict that they give in to avoid argument, even when they know they are right, and this may make them seem insincere. Diplomatic and cooperative, they are skilled at initiating group projects. In this way, Libra exemplifies the Cardinal Quality assigned to it. When Librans set goals for themselves, they are determined to succeed. Within the Zodiac, Libra is opposite Aries, the Sign of Self, so Libras tend to be about other people rather than personal development. They tend to be socially inclined and charming, but they may have a need to be liked that makes them too compliant to others' wishes.

Libra is ruled by the Planet Venus. In ancient Roman mythology, Venus (and her Greek equivalent, Aphrodite) was the Goddess of Love, Beauty, and Pleasure. She represented joy, happiness, and appreciation of beautiful things. On the negative side, her appreciation for sweets and luxury could result in overindulgence, and she could be materialistic. Venus rules both Libra and Taurus. Libra is the masculine, or day, aspect of Venus; Taurus is the feminine, or night. Both Signs have a great appreciation for beauty, but while Taurus appreciates the beauty of things, Libra is more interested in the beauty of other people. Librans are happiest when they're in a relationship. They are seductive and attractive, and their cultural awareness and talkative nature make them help them shine in the social situations they so enjoy. Because of their social nature, they can be vain or overly dependent on others' approval. Many people born under Libra have strong artistic tendencies and a refined sense of style, but they can also become lazy and apathetic if bored. They are usually controlled and rational, but at times they may be self-indulgent.

The Element associated with Libra is Air. Air Signs are intellectual: they tend to respond to the world through intellect, rather than physical action, practicality, or emotion. Libra's intellectual orientation to the world around them makes them skilled at communication and abstract reasoning, and their intelligence combines with their interest in other people to become an intellectual exploration of the people around them. Because their efforts are mentally rather than emotionally motivated, Librans tend to be very judicial; they are good at diplomacy and compromise. Because they are generally reluctant to face confrontation, people born under Libra learn to be persuasive, courteous, and adaptable. But this may also make them seem cold and unemotional or manipulative. They are team workers, skilled at cooperative action, but they can also be self-doubting. Open minded and always polite, they have a strong sense of loyalty because of their ability to put themselves into other people's shoes.

Librans love to debate but not to quarrel; a fine distinction that is nonetheless very important to people born under this Sign. They are kind and considerate, and they rarely display anger. Instead they may employ subtle means of getting even when their strong sense of fairness and legality or refined sensitivities are violated.

In their leisure time, Librans tend to have less energy that other Signs, and they have a definite lazy streak, preferring to read and go out with friends. Exercise generally appeals to them only if it allows socializing at the same time, but some have a particular affinity for activities that let them get out in nature, such as hiking and horseback riding.

In love relationships, Libra is playful and romantic.Libra rules the kidneys and lower back. People born under Libra may be more susceptible to back pain or strain than people of other Signs. Libra's colors are ivory, pink, and light blue; these three colors are harmonious in all their combinations, and they all appear in the sunset sky that Libra represents.

The great strength of the Libra-born is in their drive for peace and harmony. Their ability to obtain balance and cooperation from a disparate group is unparalleled. Their skill at seeing all sides of a situation makes them one of the most just characters of the Zodiac. #

With or Without You
u2

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you


Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you


With or without you
With or without you


Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you


With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you


And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away


My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose


And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away


With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you


With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
With or without you #

i cant stand to fly
im not that naive
im just out to find
the better part of me

im more than a bird
im more than a plane
im more than some pretty face
beside a train
and its not easy to be me

i wish that i could cry
fall upon my knees
find a way to lie
bout a home ill never see

it may sound absurd
but thats all that i need
even heroes have the right to bleed
i may be disturbed
but won't you concede
even heroes have the right to dream

n its not easy to be me

up, up and away, away from me
well its all right you can all sleep sound tonight
im not crazy...or anything

i cant stand to fly
im not that naive
men werent meant to ride
with clouds between their knees

im only a man no silly red sheet
diggin for kryptonite on this one way street
only a man, no phony red sheet
looking for...special things inside of me

inside of me
inside of me
yeah, inside me
inside of me

im only a man
no phony red sheet
im only a man
looking for a dream

im only a man
no phony red sheet
and its not easy...

its not easy
to be me





> ::: the unforgiven ::: >

new blood joins this earth
and quickly hes subdued
thru constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules

with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all this thoughts
the young man struggles on

and on hes known
a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will theyll take away

what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never be never see
wont see what might have been
what i felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never be never me

so i dub thee unforgiven

they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is

thruout his life the same
hes battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see

he no longer cares

the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me

what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never be never see
wont see what might ve been
what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never free never me
so i dub thee unforgiven

what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never be never see
wont see what might ve been
what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never free never me
so i dub thee unforgiven

never free never me
so i dub the unforgiven

u label me
i label u
so i dub the unforgiven

never free never me
so i dub thee unforgiven

u label me
i label u
so i dub thee unforgiven

> ::: footnotes ::: >

I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge -
That myth is more potent than history.
I believe that dreams are more powerful than facts -
That hope always triumphs over experience -
That laughter is the only cure for grief.
And I believe that love is stronger than death.
~ Robert Fulghum


If you think your love would not be welcomed do not voice it. For it be slient it can be endured, and guarded, like a flame.
~ Antoine de Saint-Exupery


Its best to not ask the questions of answers u dont wanna know, or answers which u know will only bring u pain.
~ me


sometimes you just have to learn to let things go. its hard. you let go though. don't dwell on something until it eats you away. try to see people in the now, and what they mean. not by things they've done in the past.
~ rola


Love is passion. Obsession. Someone you can't live without. Someone you fall head over heels for. Find someone you can love like crazy, and will love you the same way back. Listen to your heart. No sense in life without this. To make the journey without fallin deeply in love, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try, because if you haven't tried, then you haven't really lived.
~ from "Meet Joe Black"


Every place you land in life has a reason and a lesson.
~ Tori Amos


One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.


The first step to finding love is to look inside yourself for it.


God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, courage to change the things i can, n wisdom to know the difference.


Life is a tragedy for those who feel, and a comedy for those who think


The greatest power we have is the power of choice. It's an actual fact that if you've been moping in unhappiness, you can choose to be joyous instead and by effort, lift yourself to joy. If you tendto be fearful, you can overcome that misery by choosing to have courage. Even in the darkest grief you have choice. The whole trend and quality of anyone's life is determined in the long run by the choices that are made.
~ Norman Vincent Peale


If you have the courage to love, you survive.
~ Maya Angelou


We are healed from suffering only by experiencing it in the full.
~ Marcel Proust


To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
~ Bertrand Russell
