恰似你的温柔

某年某月的某一天,

就象一张破碎的脸.

难以开口道再见,

就让一切走远.

这不是一件容易的事,

我们却都没有哭泣.

让它淡淡地来,

让它好好地去.

到如今年复一年,

我不能停止怀念.

怀念你,怀念从前.

但愿那海风再起,

只为那浪花的手,

恰似你的温柔.

Smother or Smoulder

smother> verb: cause to feel trapped and oppressed

smoulder> verb: feel intense and barely suppressed anger, hatred, lust, etc.

Apparently I was told to smoulder but I ended up looking ..... I don't know .... Do you?

Trust

For too many days now
I've wandered the city streets & Back Bay
Hoping to find the Right Way
Instead I met Emptiness & Pain

For too many months now
I've begged for Patience & Strength
Searching for Advice & a trustful friend
And ran into something I can't understand

For too many years now
I've prayed for Truth & Happiness
Yet I'm still searching for Peace & Forgiveness
Lost into the mist of night of ghosts & promises

Fragile

If blood will flow when fresh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrows rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay

Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetimes argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are

Let it Go

As you go through this day, make an effort to notice one small, insignificant little frustration that you'd normally get upset about. Then do yourself a favor, and simply let it go.

Experience, in that small way, the freedom of being in control of the way you feel. And realize that you can extend that control to every situation in which you find yourself. The little things most certainly do not have to get you down. And neither do the big things. At any moment, the way you feel is the way you choose to feel. The way you respond is the way you choose to respond.

Do you really wish to be under the control of those who do not have your best interest at heart? Of course you don't. Base your feelings on the unique, valuable person you know you are, and on the positive possibilities available to you. Feel the genuine greatness of this moment, and you can bring it to life. ~ Ralph Marston~

The more we Get together

Oh, the more we get together,
Together, together,
Oh, the more we get together,
The happier we’ll be.

For your friends are my friends,
And my friends are your friends.
Oh, the more we get together,
The happier we’ll be!

HUAT AH!!!!!

Not As We

Reborn and shivering
Spat out on new terrain
Unsure unconvincing
This faint and shaky hour

Gun shy and quivering
Timid without a hand
Feign brave with steel intent
little and hardly here

Eyes wet toward
Wide open frayed
If God's taking bets
I pray He wants to lose

Day one day one start over again
Step one step one
I'm barely making sense just yet
I'm faking it til I'm pseudo making it
From scratch begin again
but this time I as I
And not as we
