Like feeding birds alert for movement,
we watch the flickering images,
distracted by sounds, voices, music,
taking flight from raw deal reality.

It's the images that move our minds,
not the pain, despair, lack of care.
We crave the shock, the resus, shaking
the bordom from our souls. Life's victims
might exchange given the chance to compare.

I am becoming so sickeningly
happy, and now all I ever want to
do is dance to the music that your words
sing to me.
~~ Turning and turning, becoming breathless as the music continues. ~~

Staring Up At The Plain, Lifeless Ceiling,
I Spend A Sleepless Night Alone Talking,
The Ceiling Says That It Is Never Falling,
And That Her I Should Finally Ignore,
But How Do I Ignore myself knowing,
For She Habitually Uttered Such - Lies,
I Had Been Such A Foolish Young Man,
Best Way To Moveon Is To Stop Feeling.

While walking on your journey,
you will meet friends along the way.
At first you'll doubt if they will stay.
As time goes by,
you forgot that you already let them become part of your life.

You'll care for them so much that it will hurt you.
You're strong enough to be vulnerable to them.

When they leave, you'll feel lost.
All the happy memories with them will be replaced with an unknown feeling.
We'll try to fill the void again,
but it will never be the same like before.

Love your friends as long as they're in your life.
Let them go if it's for the best.
Why keep a friendship if it's just a forced one.
Don't torture each other.

People leave.
There's nothing you can do about it.
We all leave something or someone.
We leave to be able to move forward.
There's no growth if there's no pain.

Value every relationship you have with someone.
When it doesn't let the two of you grow,
then you need to release your grip on what you're holding on that makes you hurt more.

Don't depend on someone.
That someone might leave and you'll get hurt again.
The only two who is going to be there is you and God.
Your family will be there as well.
But in the middle of night,
you're the only one who can wipe those tears from your eyes.
Once you calm down, you pray.

Then move on.

Everyday is a new beginning.
Your past doesn't define who you are.

We spend so much time
Over analyzing what life
Could be
But we'll never try to make it real
Or live it out physically

But there's only so much time
And no promises for tomorrow
No way to reverse what you could of had
No youth that you can barrow

So many dreams to be lived
But the mind, it holds us back
Never took a risk in life
So much imagination we lack

If only you took a chance
To see what beyond the skies
You'd see then that even YOU, can fly

Don't waste your life dreaming
And later wonder why
So many days you could of spent living
Passed in the blink of an eye
Go live!

Slowly, the river continues to flow
Down stream, my vessel rows
In this infinite misery struggling afloat

As I know,

I will never steer to shore,
Because my heart bares wounds, tore
Knowing I will never tell you
Love filled soul heavy to bore

Time continues its streak
Upstream, downstream, to the sea,
And endless highway with no horizon, see
How I will always keep my feelings to Si

I love you, may that be my crime,
What heals me,
pains me

Father Time.

Always,
Si

The history of mankind
Is a history full of repeated injuries
Without a soul
Some of us stopping living
Quite a time ago

Even if you despise society
Perhaps your own generation as well
Time cannot help but to glorify the past

All of us should know
While waiting for the right moment
The world doesn't pause

Nor should we
Life progresses forward
With or without us

As you are a sow,
So a piglet will you reap.
As you are a pretty sow,
So a boar you will let you keep.
As you are a filthy sow now,
So a true human will call you cheap.
As you are another sow,
So a burr or oink will you beep.
As you are a sow,
So a boar will go deep.
I am a human being,
I give up on you.

This separation from you,
Keeps giving tinnitus,
Yes it is recurring.

I read in fair detail of it,
It is the lack of love,
Love hormone.

Oxytocin that pacifies,
It is lacking in me,
Many downs.

All my biology has snuffed,
Extinguished is my flame,
Eversince you have left.

Separation debilitates me,
And though I can't weep,
It is stinging my heart.

Still you fail to perceive,
It's only me who waits,
And I will be waiting.

I have waited for long,
A very long time gap,
*Now I will move on.
I do not want to be damaging myself anymore.
This way I could be infested with cancer.
I am moving on, don't worry about it.

Defined in the past
Designed in present
What lies in an uncertian future is something that belongs to the present and is also from the past.

As time passes by everything moves along with the same
Over a period of time present becomes a thing of past and then a thing of remote past,
however, what remains in present with regards to past are moments and memories of the past.

Present moment in time will shape the future, of which the present knows very well
So always give your best when and while in the present
Don’t give up
Don’t give away, since there are no second chances
One right move and the right thing will find it’s right place,
However a lot of time and effort goes away in the making of that one right move,
which otherwise not only has the potential to shape the future,
but also it changes everything in present including scope with regards to the future while in present.
