Fallen oh flying man.

And there I see you fall all the way down to the bottom, just like the others that I classify like the unimportant case files of my daily life. Where you will remain just like another, nothing special left about you.

They say that if you were flying so high, one day your wings might melt in the sun, and you would fall to the ground; just like the flight of Icarus.

I know what your intentions are, and it disgusts me with the fact that even though you try so hard to put forward that oh you-were-my-best-one imagery, and blurting out phrases to your heart's content, you have total disregard and 0% respect for her and her life-after-you, which she fought so hard to create. Exploiting the right emotional buttons to press, your manipulative nature should be criminal. How can you love someone if you have no respect for them? Shouldn't these people have the right to their own life and love, and move on? Human beings, we move on you know. You were the past, and there's one too many reasons as to why you should stay there.

I shouldn't blame you, for even though you're in transit to adulthood, clearly your mentality and EQ is still stuck in the adolescent years. And judging by the fact that you used the bike and dangled it like a toy in front of a baby, you're really cute.

You can take your poser untrailed bike and shove it, and keep your hopes and dreams of your make-believe childish love rekindling while you're at it. How disgraceful that I ever thought you were in my same league.

Because normally, people are guilty until proven innocent but this time, I believed you to be innocent. And now you're guilty.

Your university application.

Hai...your university application.

I know it was difficult for me to accept the fact that I did give in to my siblings just so that they can have the privilege of going to uni to fulfill their dreams. And it was difficult to think that I would be just another young and green CPL in just another neighbourhood. But I made it to SGT, and I made it to A-div. I guess the greedy part of me just wanted to be the youngest INSP...because quite frankly the shameless part of me isn't afraid to admit that I was a bright young kid, that just screwed up here and there. I should be up there! I should be going to uni too! But life isn't always fair like that.

I'm sorry if you felt that I am holding you back from pursuing your dreams to go and have your degree. I guess I was just worried about one too many things; if you'd be happy with just another man in blue who earns just nice to be comfortable for a family; or whether our one year of relationship's foundation would be strong enough to stand the time apart when you're juggling your studies and work in the next two; but i came to realize that the driving force behind all these, once again...is you.

Like what I said earlier, these expectations of how I'm supposed to be, the best for you as portrayed in this blog. According to these historical evidences, I should be the best! What kind of promise would I be making if I cannot be the very best myself?

I can however promise you one thing. I will be here, by your side. I have waited for miracles my whole life, its time for me to fulfill them. Just as long as if what I'm planning to set aside for my future will work out, where in future should I fail along the line, someone will tell my kids about the amount of sacrifice I have put in for our family's future, and someone will tell my in-laws that its not that I did not want to be the best to be at level with their daughter, but because I had my hands full of responsibilities.

My responsibilities. As a son, a brother, and as your loving boyfriend. Won't you please, just somebody, just tell them for me, that I was a good man, and how much I sacrificed for them. All these plans I give in, to see them soar.

Its not easy to put your dreams to fly on hold, but love, makes it easier.

Sacrifices, are never easy. I should know that by now.

I wish you all the best lily. Hope your application gets through ok! Its time for you to fly for me! =)

Define divine.

When I was young, I once told Sadiq, "Step by step, become hero."

HERO
from dictionary.com
–noun, plural -roes; for 5 also -ros.
1. a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities.
2. a person who, in the opinion of others, has heroic qualities or has performed a heroic act and is regarded as a model or ideal: He was a local hero when he saved the drowning child.
3 the principal male character in a story, play, film, etc.


It amazes me sometimes, because even though I am holding up the weight of the world, I still continue to listen to other people's miseries and load their worlds on me. To these people, these stories they are holding inside, bears the burden, their secrets.

But try hard as I may, I'm no clock stopper nor time traveler. And most certainly I can't be where I wasn't at in the past, to save all these people that I care about from making the biggest mistakes of their lives. Its stupid how I actually really do feel responsible to do something about it.

It simple to carry the weight of these worlds and over time drop these planets and kick them around...but it takes something to really hold it in, load it up, and move forward.

Because I genuinely believe that if I am able to carry these different worlds, I would be the centre of the universe. A god, one so divine. Someone who is able to understand everything, take all forms of pain, to carry all worlds.

Allow me to envision this to you. In the world, people walk around in facades that they carry around. They put up brave fronts, lies, different images of themselves, someone whom they want to be, or want people to see them as. These skins that they live in may be beautiful and appealing at first, but it hides the real people inside them. They are like dark, cracking shells of thoughts and problems created round a person, life experiences that they use to create a barrier around themselves, to protect their inner person from pain, suffering. Shells of barbed wire, ready to hurt the unsuspecting people that reach into them.

Its unreal, and the only way you can see through it, or at least spot these cracks, is if you start caring for them. That's when you see the real person inside calling out to you, shining out through these cracks, emanating from deep inside their worlds.

You then use your bare hands, reach through the barbed wires, feel it cut into you. You reach out for the person, and pull them out of their shell. This, is the real person for you.

But what do you do with the broken barbed wire shells, these now empty worlds of problems? Very simple, you accept some sort of responsibility, and you load it up on your back, as if nothing...and walk forwards.

They say the hardest pill to swallow, would be the one that does you the most good. The hardest truths that you accept about people, is what makes you...true.

Because no one will ever know, how hard it really is for you to wrestle with something inside yourselves, to come to terms and accept the truth about people, to make room for them inside yourselves for them. Its when you finally do accept these hard truths, that makes you one so selfless. A true hero, by your OWN definition.

Let's just hope, they remember you. And forever, is a very long time to remember something for one as forgetful as a human.

Game of Love.

Just like that, you break and tear down the house of heart-symbol-ed cards that we took so long to piece together.

So painful, I should have kicked the house down myself if we decided we didn't want to play it that way. Well at least I didn't have to be the bad one, so that's okay. Maybe I wasn't meant to be the joker. Your ace of spades.

Well, I'm left to pick them up with somebody else.

Let's shuffle and build a new one. No, let's throw out this deck like how it was broken in the first place, its different this time.

Reporting.

You are to report for duty, every day without fail.

But where do you report feelings of jealousy, sir?

You don't. That's an order.

HAHA i'm reminded of how that fatty senior officer from SAF went into the police post and wanted to borrow the sofa for his dog unit saying, "Erm can have some welfare for my men?", and all the 20 officers did in the room was laugh and ridicule him till he walked away and realized how stupid he was for even thinking of it.

Maybe dismissal would work.

Romeo, your feelings...DISMISSED.

Spin your fancy drills, or catch your AWOL NSmen.

You, Mite Prick BOY. Stay away, your existence is making me think unnecessary things about the people I should trust. I would seriously punt your sorry can-can with them size 11s, then you'd know why violent behavior downgraded me from Alpha to Charlie.

Parasite.

Strung-out.

I take pride in being honest. I was angry, but for every finger I point, I'd get four right back at cha. So maybe I'll just save it and shut up.

Hopefully, they'll go away if I continue being a man.

Impute.

It sucks to match up to someone whom you know, in the back of your mind, had the same name as you.

All you can do is be your best.

Irritants.

Have you ever had those pieces of skin peeling off the side of your fingernails? You know those annoying, irritating, pieces of skin that seem to sway in the wind or attract your attention when you brush past something?

Well, I have this bad habit when I have one of those, I just grab on them, and count to three before I rip them out upwards and see how far up into my fingers they dig.

A few seconds later, the blood will start flowing and a largely variable pain kicks in for the next 1 or two days based on how far deep it has been cut in you; but you know that you're rid of that irritating bugging piece of skin that seems to be the only thorn at your side.

So firstly, you recognize the irritating object, brace yourself for it and anticipate the upcoming events...and you finally go for it. After that, when the pain kicks in, you know that after the pain is gone, it would all be alright. That's the best way to get rid of irritating P.O.S(s).

And I have this really gay tweety bird plaster on my fingers, just in case it gets painful.

Carousel

Its strange how life serves something up to you in your face, its like spinning around a merry go round, or sitting in a carousel...but i think that actually it is like having boiling hot soup placed on a lazy susan, and then spun around till it revolves and arrives nearest to you.

Its just about how much heat you can take from it. After all, in normal circumstances it was always me who packed the heat.

In normal instances, it was I that placed the hot soup there. Yet these past few days, it had not spun in my favour. And it really sucks.

Ask me how does it feel to be one of them, and I'm telling you, the spotlight...it burns. It burns.

The Summer Air

"I once believed I would set you in line"

"If only I had the strength you’d be completely accepting something else"

"If you keep asking me I’ll melt away in the summer air
It won’t hurt half as much and I'll beg for you to please stop it now
If you keep asking me I’ll melt away in the summer air
It won’t hurt half as much and I’ll beg for you to just tell me something"

I can tell there was an accident here earlier-Saosin

Hearts Burst Into Fire VII

Pale, was the moon that night as it shone over the area that the knight would call his spot. It had been quite awhile since he was able to stay and revisit his area, since the many adventures that he had been on. Guess his amazing journey and nomadic lifestyle has made him grow weary and tired. But this time something feels different.

The knight's many adventures have made him feel empowered, he has undertaken many tasks within the kingdom as the king had recognized his many triumphs and victories in his duties. He feels content with life but he knows that it is never meant to be easy. Inside he questions this new found life, and thus he seeks the aid of a gypsy seer. Of his many journeys he never fails to hear her thoughts, as her clairvoyant nature would be able to tell the future, way more accurately than the knight's limited visions. Some believe that seers would only want the best for their knights.

As he visits her, he frequently brings her offerings. Her readings may not always be what the knight wants to hear, but he accepts them, as it had always been that way. Every knight in the land would seek the advice of a seer to foretell his journey before leaving. That is the way of life out here. In fact there had been even some legends of knights falling in love with their seers due to the close rapport that they have.

It wasn't always so easy to see your seer. Prophecies come in weird garbled visions, and its really up to the knight to figure it out, to see what he deems fit. Sometimes he ends up understanding the opposite meaning of what the seer was saying.

He returns from seeing the seer and he sits by the bonfire. Surprisingly, today the seer had no visions for him. Instead he saw his visions in the reflections on the lake's surface. There it was, and it was up to him if he wanted to face it or not.

It was a pale white dragon with magnificent green eyes. Guess it's going to be another problem for the stygian stallion.

HAHA FAIRYTALES ARE SO FUN TO WRITE!

My old neighbour.

"Once more I say goodbye, to you
Things happen but we don't really know why"

"Once more you tell those lies, to me
Why can't you just be straight up with honesty?
When you say those things in my ear,
Why do you always tell me what you wanna hear?"

"Wear your heart on your sleeve, make things hard to believe"
All these things I hate-BFMV.

Goodbye, for now. Takecare.

Circumventing circumstances.

I realize that I've always been like that. When i have a problem, i drown myself in it, let it become my lifeblood and devote myself fully and totally, all my energy, thoughts and emotions into it, until I realize that I, am completely drained. I give in totally, my everything for a certain problem, I think about solving the problem, I don't think about myself, I'm not hungry, vulnerable or human...I become the problem itself. I find that I AM the problem. It's just me.

But when the problem comes smashing into my face, I wake up like a breath of fresh air, a sudden rush of wind, a big slap and I suddenly awake almost as if from a dream. It is then that I realize that may have over-estimated myself. I may have given in too much, put too much into it.

However, I am not the type to regret either. People can give whatever reasons they want to give to me, but I can believe whatever it is I want to believe. And I, am rarely wrong about my educated, investigated judgments of people.

I see right through you. I know what you say. I know your truths, your words. Its just that I accept. I accept your reasons, maybe because in your imaginary mind you may believe that I actually truly believe what you say.

Maybe because in your mind, I made you believe that I believe your words.

Everything you say or do can and will be used against you. Its just that I don't. Because I am nice, and I make believe that I believe you. Without question. I make believe to be a clueless, trusting, 10 year old boy.

So go ahead and walk all over me with your high heels or your high horses. In the end of the day, when I've become the problem itself, you know that I would have given it my best.

Irony

How ironic can it be.

I've been robbed. Robbed of my chance. Robbed of what was inside of me. What's left is now an empty shell, and when the cold night wind blows the painful gaping hole, it whistles in my ears.

I was robbed. Taken away from me, without a chance to stand up for myself.

It wasn't just another one. It wasn't. Hope the cold wind carries my stories over there. Lest I be lost in the warm nights, let me not fade in the memories. Remember. Please remember.

Powerless is the man that thought he was the most powerful.
Robbed was the man, who knew he was the azure.

So swift and powerful, the most vicious of crimes, I was robbed.

Still-life.

From the movie: "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind"

Joel:"Wait...wait...I just want you to wait...for awhile."
Clementine:"....I'm not perfect."
J:"I can't see anything that I don't like about you."
C:"But you will, you'll think of things...and I'll get bored of you, because that's what happens...with me."
J:*shrugs*"Okay"
C:"Okay.......okay."
Both: *Laughs and agree*


Yeah, I think its okay wut. I would've stayed too even though it would have been fated to fail.
