Be my thoughts.
Philia Sep 2016
Be my 2 pm thoughts,

When I'm wondering,
If you are doing fine,
Have you eaten your lunch?
How's your day?
Are you tired? Or sleepy?
Have you got enough sleep last night?
What are you having for lunch?
Are you thinking about me too?

Be my 2 am thoughts

When I'm wondering,
Do you love me as much as I do?
Are you dreaming about me?
How do I look in your eyes?
Do you miss me?
Do you know that I love you a bit too much?
Do you know that I'm so grateful to have you in my life?
*Do you know that you are exactly what I've been looking for?

He kissed her.
Philia Aug 2016
He kissed her hand,
She never knew that it would make her feel like a princess in a god-**** fairytale.

He kissed her forehead,
She never knew that it would make her feel so loved.

He kissed her cheek,*
She never knew that she would be falling this hard for him.

A Classic Love Story.
Philia Apr 2018
Let me tell you a story,
a classic love story;
about a boy and a girl.
who spent their childhood together.
Never really talk about anything;
They're both young and shy.

Until that one time.
that was a Summer Holiday;
She's 17 and naive,
He's 19 and not sure about anything.
They spend 10 days together,
travels around China.

She falls head over heels for him.
But he's too blind to see.
Everything is just not in their favor.
Everything just seems useless.

She carries her broken heart, and move on.
She becomes a stronger woman.
She knows what's the best for her,
and can handle things on her own.

So does he.

Time flies,
and here they are.

They found each other,
after almost 6 years.

Seeing each other's eyes,
holding each other's hands.
Talking about their dreamy holiday in the past,

and suddenly, it is a happy ending.

She will.
Philia Oct 2014
breathless
you can even hardly breath,
because of the pain in your chest..
.
.
tears rolling down,
and you start to shake
you can't take this **** anymore..

sore
you feel your chest gonna be exploded,
all you can do is crying..
.
.
you already hit the ceiling,
you're so furious,
and you wanna hit the wall,
with you bare hands
-it doesn't hurt though, *if you compare it with your heart now


He thinks, you will never leave him..
ooh, I beg your pardon, mister..

*she will.. she will..

Notes to self
Philia Jan 2016
We all deserve somebody who makes our life worth living.

Don't settle.
Don't let somebody makes you feel bad about yourself.
Always remember, if somebody really loves you, he will stay.
Don't bear because you are lonely, bear because he worth your time.
Don't settle because you are afraid that nobody will ever love you the way he does.
Believe me, if he really loves you, settling or not won't ever be an option for you.
Just wait and see, somebody will suddenly find you, maybe in your darkest time, and he will love you. Much more than anyone ever did.
Just remember, you don't deserve a gloomy stormy night. You deserve a beautiful sunny day.
Love yourself, more than you love anyone else. Don't ever lose yourself.
Don't change for anybody. Change for the sake of yourself.
Smile more. and breathe.
Your mistakes don't define who you are. If they judge you, just don't give a ****, you don't need to waste your time for those negative people.
When you have options, choose the one that you can't live without. Not the one you think is the less risky.
Follow your guts.
You don't always need to know the reasons why.
Don't think too much, everything will be in the right place at the right time.
Pray to God for everything you've got today.
Be grateful.

It is what it is. Move on.

Free Falling.
Philia Aug 2016
Falling for you is like free falling.

I couldn't help it,
I couldn't control it.

I don't wanna stop.

Love.
Philia Oct 2018
But then,
I always come up with an idea
That love
Is never worth to write about.
Love
Is all that destroys you
Love
Is all that drains you

All the pain
& the bitterness
is always because of
Love.

Dandelions.
Philia Feb 2019
I blew dandelions;
In a meadow here we are.
In love.

What else I could wish for?

I blew dandelions;
Without saying any wishes,

Call me naïve,
But if I had you,

what else I could wish for?

All the love songs.
Philia Jun 2018
All the love songs,
All the promises,
All the sweet talks,

I can’t help myself but smirk
and roll my eyes.

I’ve been thru a lot of heartbreak,
uncertainty,
rejections,
and tears.

and one thing for sure,
It all started with
those love songs, promises and sweet talks.

29th of August
Philia Aug 2018
After 6 years,
there you are,
in my dream;
smiling, laughing.
Just like 10 years ago.

It was a snowy day,
well, I don’t know where we are.
But you were in 10-years younger version of yourself,
Wearing a black long coat,
Smiling at me;
Walk beside me.

It’s funny, that I subconsciously force myself to remember you.
& 29th of August.

In a day.
Philia Dec 2018
I want to wake up in Singapore.
Open my window and feeling the hot Sun on my face.
Thank God it's a clear blue sky. No haze, no anything.
Just a really hot Sunny day.
I order dumplings, char keow teow and teh peng in one of the hawker place.
What a pleasant breakfast before I walk into a local coffee shop to sip a glass of iced Caramel Macchiato.

I want to spend an afternoon in Volendam.
Feeling the ocean breeze & the Sun on my face.
I want to eat fresh Seafood platter & a bottle of beer for my lunch.
& walk around the local shops & buy cute souvenirs.
I will take a break and sitting by the deck. In quiet.
Even everyone around me is pretty loud.
I think I will live here when I get old.

I want to spend an Evening in Rome.
Just walk out from the Vatican, and now I'm in Rome.
I want to ride my bike to the wondrous Fontana di Trevi
I will get there before the Sun in down so I have the chance to take photos before everything gets dark.
I'm not going to throw pennies on it. No.
I will only see the magical statue & lick my Gelato over here.

I want to spend a night in Paris.
It never be my first love,
but when I step my foot for the second time,
seeing all these beauties, I fall in love.
I fall in love with their arrogance & their ignorance.
It would be a cold night, with a little bit of drizzle.
It's what they always said right?
Rainy midnight in Paris is always magical.
I will get a nice dinner near the Eiffel Tower,
leaving myself in awe,
sipping my red wine,
before I finally walk to the Icon of Paris.
Maybe I will take a boat tour, maybe I just will spend a night at one of the parks, looking at the Tower.
Before finally, I walk to one of their antique yet beautiful shophouses.
& call it a night for today.

It is always a perfect sunny day before a dark stormy hurricane.

Love is always the prettiest right before you finally disappointed, again.

All I ever know.
Philia Aug 2016
I don't know whether it is the empty street,
Or the empty heart,
That makes me feel so lonely.

I don't know whether it is the cold wind,
Or the uncertainty,
That makes me feel so dizzy.

I don't know whether it is the rainy days,
Or this pain in my heart,
That makes me feel so cold.

All I ever know is I love you.
& that's the only thing that matters right now.
286 · Jul 2018
love.
Philia Jul 2018
Sometimes
love means taking a step back
or two.

There is nothing
in this world
that is meant for you;
can be taken from you.

if it is meant to be;
then it will be.

Projet Le Huit.
Philia Nov 2018
Shoot your gun on 05.40,
then it will says:
"Happy 1/4 of Century"
to you.

Open the book,
& I wrote "Serenity Prayer" to you.
Godspeed, man!
take it as your guidance, as your life shelter.
as God will always be with you.

Big balloons of 25 will be waiting for you in your room,
while your Mom talks to you,
I will inflate it,
pick up your Strawberry Cheesecake &
your gift.

Nothing special really,
I give you customised embroidery art of
"Aquila" Constellation.
& Dylan Blue, as you want me to pick up a perfume for you.
So, Versace it is.

I never really thought,
there would be another project.
But pardon me & my brain, they keep rambling about ideas
& I cannot stop myself from doing all of these things.

This is not just for you.
but also, this one is really for me.

XOXO,
278 · Aug 2019
Priority.
Philia Aug 2019
Life taught me hard,
To love myself more,
To stand alone,
& To be enough with myself.

I learn to take care of myself,
Even if the world is against me.
I learn to enjoy myself more than I am with people.

I learn to prioritize my insanity than anything in the world, just because I deserve to be the priority of myself.

I am the one that all I’ve got.

All I have is myself.
& That should be enough.

Letter to you.
Philia Jun 2018
I am here writing to you
not because I'm so confident about myself,
nor I know I would be that kind of successful-motivated-woman,
who will achieve that richest-most successful woman-under 30.

I am here writing this
Because I have the same anxiety,
the same concern as all of you.

But I know
as the sun will always rise in the east,
We have new chances,
we have a new story to write,
we have those 24 hours to hustle again.

Everything will fall into the right places.
all you have to do is pray, hustle and live.

know your strength,
know your weakness.
No one is perfect,
and that's totally okay.

You don't have to find everything out, overnight.
no one ever does.
baby steps,
but keep moving forward.

Be better than yesterday,
learn from yesterday, but don't take a step back.

It's okay to stop.
sit down.
take a rest, and breathe.
Contemplate things that happened before.
learn from it.
then *** up, take a step ahead.

No one really knows what they doing.
So do I.
We are all pretending to know what are we doing.

So, focus on your own garden.
Their grass may be greener just because of the grass is artificial.

If today you are sinking, tired, and frustrated.
Wipe your sweat.
and take a rest.
Have a good rest.
As tomorrow you have to try again.

Cheers!

Midnight Prayer
Philia Feb 2019
& Tonight
I kneel down
& pray
& cry
hard.

For everything is not in my favor.
For everything seems didn’t work out.
For everything is useless.

I’m just tired, you know..
Trying & failed
I’m just too tired
& I didn’t want to live this way.

who are you
I asked myself;
As I didn’t recognise myself,
Anymore.

Good Night.
Philia Jul 2018
”I think I’m in love with him.”

She finally got to admit.
At least to her true self.

”I think I’m in love with him.”

She whispers,
To her phone.
Even for today,
she keeps it “good night.”
.

First Love
Philia Jul 2018
So she met her first love,
Today
In a hot Sunday Morning
After a long long while.

Her heart still skips the beat,
She smiled at him,
Shy; just like 10 years ago;
When she was only 13.

She thought, she’s over it.
Yeah, she’s over it,
But, first love never really truly dies.

..or does it?

Aphrodite (revised)
Philia Jun 2018
A long walk that night,
Guide me to a place
That I’m not too sure whether I should step in or not.
it is Aphrodite’s temple.

I start blabbering about love.
All of my theories;
All of my beliefs.
She listens without any word comes out from her mouth.

It continues;
I strategically points out those rhetorical questions that I know I didn't need her answers.
I tell her about the pain;
And those broken hearts;
That love lies.
It hurts;
And it destroys.

But again, I didn’t need her answer.

I said, I once believe in love.
But when I talked about love, how can I forget the pain it follows?
234 · Jul 2018

father.
Philia Feb 2021
I never ask you to call me your little princess;
I never ask you to hug me when I cried,
or kiss me good night;
I never ask you to be there for me.

well, they said, a father is a daughter's first love.
well, then I said that's *******.

Never in a million years,
I expect that my first heartbreak is from my own father.
long before any boy had the chance to.

I still remember when I was 7,
I already cursed him under my breath,
I even wrote about it in one of my very first diaries.

Sad to be true, but now I am almost 26.
19 years I live with all these wounds that never really healed.

I never asked him to love me.

Just stop hurting me.
Just stop hurting my feelings.
232 · Jul 2018
Lose.
Philia Jul 2018
and.. if she’d ever lose again,
for the second time;
to the same woman.

please tell her,
that he doesn’t deserve her.
please tell her,
that he is not the one.

please let her cry;
but again,
tell her,
that he is not,
and will never be
the one.

Irreplaceable.
Philia Apr 2021
How dare I dreamed about you last night?*

I scrolled through our conversations 5 years ago as soon as I woke up.

I read our fights and finally, our goodbyes.
It funny that I still felt the pain.

I told you in one of our last conversations,
that "I regret all those 2 years with you, & if I can go back I will not waste my time to be with you."

I lied.

You are one of the best things that ever happened in my life.
You are a sure thing, hurt me so deeply; but you are the lesson that I glad that I went thru.

I enjoy every second with you. & I did love you so much.

You are irreplaceable.
& I have no regret, none at all.
218 · Dec 2019
Tears.
Philia Dec 2019
She talks to you a billion times,
just to make you understand.

She is for sure super complicated
& She herself is as confused as you are.
She's a mess.
But she wants you to know that no matter how crazy she is,
she knows what she wants.

She tries to talk to you.
First with a smile in her face..
Patiently explains to you.

& when everything happened again,
she repeatedly explains.
Finally she's sick with it. & explains to you in anger.

But still, you don't get it.

Communications between two lovers is the most important thing in the relationship, they said.

Maybe this time she'll let her tears to speak,
hopefully you'll understand better.

Him.
Philia Jun 2020
He's the memory she wants to forget.
A Summer Fling;
The one that still makes her wonder.
It's Him.

She opens her eyes this morning,
It's been awhile since She thinks about him.
In her dreams last night, everything looks so vivid.
Everything looks so real.

Are dreams made of what we want to happen?
Or is it just don’t actually mean anything?

She promised to stop thinking & talking about Him.
Let her break her promise just for today.

He looks so handsome in her dream.
He smiled at her. and she smiled back, awkwardly.
He drove her home & they talked about many things
Things that she cannot remember when she woke up.

He drove her home & smiled.*
Thing that is never happened in the real life.

If she insists that she didn't love him before,
then why is she still wondering?

8th of May.
Philia May 2019
As far as I can remember,
8th of May was my unlucky day.
I found myself awake, up all night
4 years ago
With tears in my cheeks;
Looking at the window,
looking up to the stars.
giving up.
Love was never really worth the fight
At least, that’s what I thought that night.

4 years later,
today
When I thought that I have found someone that completely know me,
& love me,
Turns out,
Today, I also shed a tear.
Maybe today is as disappointing as 4 years ago.
Maybe love is never really worth the fight.
205 · Aug 2019
One Thing.
Philia Aug 2019
I've been swallowing the bitterness & *******,
what could be more bitter?

My heart has been broken multiple times,
what could be more painful than that?

I've been tricked on,
lied on,
betrayed on..
It is life.

One thing people should remember,
at the end of the day, all you got is yourself,
No one should & no one would ever help you.

Philia Aug 2019
2019 almost come to an end.
-
This year,
I start off with some things that are new in my life;
a boyfriend, a new business & a partner.
& also I realised things that I forgot these past few years.
to not take things for granted & be more grateful,
to cherish & finally read some books,
oh, and to write.*
& I want to end this year well.

I have a letter for my 25-year old me that I wrote 5 years ago;
& surely I will updated it next year,
I will talk to 19-year old me; update her with my life.
Well, I got 7 months to do some heroic stuffs so she won't that disappointed with 25 year old version of herself.

Time do flies.
& sometimes I don't know how I got here.
I don't know how I finally can overcome my problems back then.

2019 is a much better year.
but yet, I haven't get used to this adult life.
I ramble for no reason & I got no point.
I just updating about how 2019 treated me.
I'm still hanging, guys.

Changes.
Philia Jun 2019
When people change,
and the feelings fade,
Everything is not in your favour anymore,
and you can't even compromise,

Would you stay for the sake of your comfort,
& tolerate even if it is hurt?

Or would you get up,
and move on?

To breath.
Philia Aug 2019
We have been really caught up in the World these days.
All we’ve been watch or read or think about are all about terrors;
wars;
tragedy.

We let our mind busy,
We let ourselves think & worry too much.

We often forget that we need to feed our mind to keep it sane.
We deserve to get our time alone,
To just breath, to just contemplate about life.
To seize the day.
To be grateful.

No Rendezvous.

Both are speaking in two different language.
Nothing really connects.
Both cannot put themselves in each other's shoe.

It has no rendezvous.

— The End —
