This Is Where It Begins

hi-fi love

2006-06-09T23:53:00.000-07:00

gentle strumming of the guitar
the humming of the lips
passion from the core
electronic beeps enter
creating the world of where
I live today

then the tinkling of the piano
acoustically charges my head
as my heart remembers the beats
of the drum machine enticing
both arms to embrace how
I live today

badabadabadabe-ah
badabeah beah abadada
beeep beeep aahhhh
I live today
beep-beep badabda be
this is today

in a book

2006-05-10T22:37:00.000-07:00

Now that I've found the beginning
Take what's left and give me the ending
There's no reason for lingering
It's time

See all that I'm living
No point in detouring
Nothing left for giving
It's time

Now I see the beginning
It's here for my living
the back is turned,
a shadow retreating,
a sun beating,
It's time
This is my ending.
happy after all.

Everyone you know will someday die
you try and you know you'll never know
how, when, where, you'll try
they'll die you know
but you're never alone.

When you do know
that's the day you'll see
how much they've missed you
and someone will know someone
that one day has died.

look

2006-04-04T22:28:00.000-07:00

Don't you close your eyes
Run into my arms
So that I can hold you tight

Don't you close your eyes
Lead into your charms
Baby let me hold you right

I'm the one
The one who's here tonight

a night of worrying
leaves a heart empty
misery learnt

but when you hear it call
open the door
there he stands
all is cured
when love returns

He ran and ran and ran.
She let him go.
And now I sit wondering where he's gone
and I can't find him no more.
My baby's gone.
The rains begins to fall.

sensation creation
as a mirror smiles back
swish a scarf
ready to go

I'll walk through that door
which leads to a never been before
sensation created
as the latch clicks

one step forward
it begins.

the air

2006-03-03T07:45:00.000-08:00

why should I care?
why should I cry?
I can always sigh
It's better that way.
at least I know I'm still breathing.

Flamboyance is a drug I cannot abstain from
It completes me
Like the thrill of running across a road
Embrace the fear and savouring the taste of it
An actor who performs
The adrenaline rush
I'll tell you
It's here to stay
Confidence, exuberance, nothing short of stylishness
That is flamboyance
Live with it!

walk

2006-02-17T01:42:00.000-08:00

I was born to be blue
looking for a four-leaf clover
to wish the blues away
looking for a rainbow
with the elusive pot of gold

dreams never cease
to confirm that life has other plans
for this little boy blue
looking for a what if
what if I just lived?

love and passion I miss so dearly
coupled with joy and tears
of lust so great

today a rose will mean so much
a thorn will pierce skin
nowhere near where it exists

it is all there ever is
and all there will ever be

dream it clear
resist all fear
wished for you
I wish you near

sweetness is artificial.
it always comes in a perfectly designed sachet
ever ready to replace the sugar
that comes from the natural source

beware the sachet
it fools you with it's false saccharine ways
one sip later, you're hooked
and gone is your freedom.

when it's cut off
you'll find yourself pining for sweeter days
that turn into years.

in memoriam

2006-01-29T04:45:00.000-08:00

a crush I had.
then our brief encounter.
as friends, we always had our smiles.
one call came through.
and now you're gone.
your kind words and funny thoughts
I'll always rememeber.

living life in limbo
waiting for the day
when it'll all be mine

Please don't let this feeling end.
Time will reveal the truth hidden in my heart.
It's hard I know this mask I wear.
But love me.
That's all I can say.

What is a man if his chief good and market of his time be but to sleep and feed?
- hamlet, Hamlet, IV, iv

I'd rather be a dog and bay at the moon
-brutus, Julius Caesar, IV, ii

it's here

2006-01-18T07:07:00.000-08:00

I've been looking all around the world to see what I can find
Broken promises
Empty dreams
People washed away by extremes
But now I find
It's looking me in the eye

heresy

2006-01-07T02:16:00.000-08:00

then what is the truth?

fairplay

2006-01-04T01:35:00.000-08:00

The plot thickens
When another clue is unveiled
Adding to the mystery
Of what had happened to me

Fingerprints found
Blood stains the velvet gown
Searching for the murderer
Who stabbed his blade in me

Nobody knows which room it was
Not even the cause
Another clue is found again
Adding to the mystery’s strain

A letter words the truth
Once read time will swift undo
The victim resurrects to say
I live to play another day.

a new year

2006-01-02T01:12:00.000-08:00

The truth can now be spoken. Heartache is just a token.
Secrets, lies and lovers come on over.
No more lonely nights to wait and wonder
My empty heart is well protected.
Forget the pain, the yearning
My life is now returning.
My heart's no longer burning.
Come on over.

things from a lifetime ago
now I sit and smile.

stolen mistletoe kisses. rose-tinted spectacles. doesn't matter because you're here with me. i'm counting my blessings instead of sheep.

and tonight, together, we fly away.

tomorrow, we return. and it begins again.

a little star

2005-12-13T09:27:00.000-08:00

...will one day shine as bright and gay as sure as the day does come (once night is done).

life is spoken softly through the lips of love

watch over me

2005-12-08T09:19:00.000-08:00

where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

do I follow the star or wait for three wisemen to bear gifts of reason?

please, come to me shepherd. i know not where to go.

you loved me once upon a summertime.

the look of love

2005-12-08T03:47:00.000-08:00

wipe it off!

2005-12-06T20:09:00.000-08:00

why? just let me go. I thought it was over. let me go. Let Me Go! LET ME GO!

tug of war

2005-12-05T21:58:00.000-08:00

I was ready to make my move. As I took my first step, I felt a hand grab my shoulder. What the fuck! I swung around... He didn't want to let me go. Poor butterfly.

Here comes Frosty!

2005-12-05T08:56:00.000-08:00

I turn around and there he is. Our eyes meet. He smiles and immediately sends shivers down my spine.

Where do I begin?

2005-12-05T08:27:00.000-08:00

to tell the story of how sweet a love can be?
