Day 121: This could be the last mistake that I would ever wanna do


Mood:  Numb

Title Taken from the Song: Another Heart Calls by The All-American Rejects (feat the Pierces)


I felt so numb the past few days
and I was proud of myself for being able to forget you
then I realized that you still cross my mind
and I said to myself: "at least, my heart does not seem to care anymore"



But I was wrong. 
My heart does care. 
The only reason it's been numb is because:
I cry myself to sleep everyday


It's been 39 days since the last time I saw you
You disappeared once again
without saying goodbye
I told you that we should stop this game
My broken heart has been shattered to pieces
repeatedly
that it's now unrecognizable

I keep waiting and waiting
for you to say goodbye
and you never do
you run away
from whatever demons you're battling within yourself
and you'll never get over me
because you can never resolve me


One day, when you're ready to come back to me
My heart will be renewed
and made stronger
and I'll heap onto you all the pain and suffering I've experienced 
under your expert heart-breaker hands
By then I will have moved on
and more focused
successful
and you will still be alone in your confused world



i just want you to say what you mean and mean what you say
and have the conviction
and not run away from the intensity
the moment you did what you wanted, 
it felt so strong 
and maybe it was wrong
but the moment it happened it was so right

i am not some jettison you throw overboard just to make your load lighter
and someday you will realize that. 

i will wait for the day when i can slap you in the face
and make you regret all these cat-and-mouse games you've put me through
i will still love you
but it doesn't mean i will have to put up with all the crap you subject me to


Everyday, when I wake up, 
I will function 
and I will get past the feeling of longing
wanting to talk to you
even if it means that I have to cry myself to sleep 
just to do this. 

And you will always have me in your mind
in your heart
in your senses
you will never resolve me
you will always wonder about me
for the rest of your life. 


Day 120: I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you

Mood:  Heartbroken  
Title Taken From the Song: We Are Stars by the Pierces



We are stars,
Fashioned in the flesh and bone,
We are islands,
Excuses to remain alone,
We are moons,
Throw ourselves around each other,
We are oceans,
Being controlled by the pull of another.


And I just wanna be loved by you,
Yeah I just wanna be loved by you,
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you.


When we met,
I was pulling an angel out of a liar,
We forget,
Satisfaction kills our desire,
We are dreamers,
Wishing upon what we were born from,
We made plans,
Kill them ourselves,
And then we mourn them.


And I just wanna be loved by you,
Yeah I just wanna be loved by you,
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you.



And I just wanna be loved by you,
Yeah I just wanna be loved by you,
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you.
(I just wanna be loved by you)
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you.
(I just wanna be loved by you)
I see nothing worse than to sail this universe without you,
Without you.







Day 89: Heart, We Will Forget Him

Heart, we will forget him,
You and I, tonight!
You must forget the warmth he gave,
I will forget the light.

When you have done pray tell me,
Then I, my thoughts, will dim.
Haste! ‘lest while you’re lagging
I may remember him!


- Emily Dickinson

Day 51 (Feb 21): Got You Where I Want You


Mood: Confused
Title Taken from the Song: Got You Where I Want You by The Flys






Right now, I got you where I want you

You saying how sorry you are
Acting like we could just pick up where we left off
But we forgot one little detail: my heart






It's still broken
shattered to pieces
and i can not pretend that the past didn't happen


there will always be this defensive stance
this wall i will surround myself with
this fortress to protect myself






so although this moment is something i have wished to happen
i am too scared to move
to scared to accept this sorta fairytale move of yours
because i know that one of these days you will break my heart again

Day 88: Who do you think you are? Runnin' 'round leaving scars?

Mood: Hopeless 
Song Title Taken From: Jar of Hearts by Christina Perri

I can't believe that I got duped again
Why did I ever believe in you?

I was doing great...
Learning to move on
Swearing to myself I'll never look back
That no matter what happens I will just ignore you
If you ever come up to me
I will just shun you away



But then you always had this charm
This power over me
and I am back to the same thing
The same agony

And now, 
I am like a puppet to your string
I hate this feeling
Of being so dependent on you
If I should Stay or Go

I want to get rid of you
COMPLETELY...
that i can walk away from everything
without looking back
even if you are at your sweetest
your honest 
and your loveliest self


I want to just feel nothing
and forget you like you never existed 
at all

So take all of the sad things in me
Take all of the pain I've experienced
Take all the tears I cried
so that I won't get to be sad again
or to feel pain over you again
or to cry again.

Take your bullshit and leave me alone
Do not ignore me for months
and then come back missing me as a friend
and luring me back to the same thing
and then blowing me off when it is most convenient for you

say what you mean
and mean what you say

Don't act like I forced you to do this
To come back to me
When I have done all I could to stay away from you
and you knew the power you have over me

Just follow through on what you promised to yourself. 
That is: to leave me alone
To forget me
To pretend I don't exist anymore. 

And I will forget you just as easily.

Day 24: I heard the news today, oh boy

Mood: Pretending
Title taken from the song: A Day in the Life by the Beatles 



For eight weeks, I threaded through the mud of agony and depression.
I looked normal. People even said I look so inspired. I never let people on that I was actually depressed.


Then came Christmas and I decided to pick myself up and move on.
The death of a dear friend was enough of a wake-up call. 
He was the only one I told about you. 
And now that he's not here, I can not afford to get heartbroken again. 
I might go crazy knowing there's no one else I can speak to about you.

I couldn't tell anyone else about you for the fear of being judged
I felt like once they knew I actually fell for you, 
I'd be seen as vulnerable. 
I'd be seen as weak. 


I'd rather them wonder endlessly than admit to it. 

Even now, I still hear them talking about you. 
They didn't know we're not even anything close to friends.
They'd talk to you and point me out
And I feel like the world is being cruel to me


I prayed and prayed that God would help me heal
and he answered my prayers
I heard the news a few weeks ago
about my transfer
and I know I have prayed for this
an exit
a way out from a lifestyle of thinking of you
a habit of remembering you
into a life of work
a life of focus on things that will reap rewards


I almost said goodbye to everyone
except to you
I had weeks of thinking 
trying to make a decision

How come the person you want to say goodbye to the most
is the only person you don't really get the chance to say goodbye to?

Day 15: When the truth is.. I miss you

Mood: Reminiscing
Title Taken from Music: Warning Sign by Coldplay

Once there was a time when you were just a dream.
An impossibility.
You and Me = Us or We was not something I considered
It was just a wish



Fate stepped in.
You became real
We were both in awe
We never thought that we could be together
You said I was out of your reach
I said that I thought the same about you



Now, it seemed like everything was back to the idyllic days
of wishing and longing and stargazing
of hoping you would notice me
of hoping you would think of me


I could have sworn we are strangers by the way we act around each other
Was that you holding my hand three months ago?
Was that you looking at my back as we part ways on the street?
Was that you hugging me so tightly two months ago?
Was that you kissing me as if your life depended on it?
Was that you whispering in my ear I love you?


I could have sworn it was you. 


Now you're just someone who passes me by
Someone who'd just steal glances, thinking I could not see you from where I stood
Someone who I cross hallways with
Someone whom I won't dare speak to even if you're the last resort to get the job done
The only one I won't give chocolates to when I've given everybody else
Just a voice I hear when I pass by




But the truth is.. I just miss you
