Out of the dark

2008-05-02T12:27:00.006+02:00

Hear the voice from deep inside

Its the call of your heart

Close your eyes and your will find

The way out of the dark

Touch Me There

2008-04-26T20:29:00.002+02:00

The nights are cool and the music fills me, touches my soul. I close my eyes and remember what it’s like kissing you. The softness, the wetness, the openness how I’m drawn to inside. I weaken, soften, melt to the embrace of your lips. I'm wonderfully weak, savoring each of your moist kisses. I tremble within.

You’re always there in my dreams. And even when we part it remains.
Touch me there until the end of time…

Touch me there
(Sung by: Total Touch)

Kiss
Kiss

Heyeyey, yeah, heyey
(Forever)
Heyeyey, yeah, hey
(Tonight we’ll fly to heaven)

One time we had the best by your smile
Free me from rules for only one night
Desirable as you are
Tryin’ to keep myself in line

Although your movement feels so right
Keep my glory high

Touch me here, baby, won’t you kiss me there?
Let’s dance away forever
I like the way you’re groovin’ like you just don’t care
Tonight we’ll fly to heaven

Caress my body and my soul
I need to take care of, I’m just a little girl
Not asking for a razorfaced lover
Don’t make me scared, don’t push me into your arms

I’ll find me softly your affection
Bring it to me

Touch me here, baby, won’t you kiss me there?
Let’s dance away forever
I like the way you’re groovin’ like you just don’t care
Tonight we’ll fly to heaven

You’re such an oversacrificed boy
I never thought that it would matter to me
And even when I try to keep my distance
I see your eyes ligthnin’, my face starts to glow

Your power makes me feel so shy
Keep my glory high

Touch me here, baby, won’t you kiss me there?
Let’s dance away forever
I like the way you’re groovin’ like you just don’t care
Tonight we’ll fly to heaven

Kiss
Mmm, mmm, kiss
Oho yeah

Ooohooohooo
Oh, oh

I’ll find me softly your affection
You gotta bring it to me
Your power makes me feel so shy, shy, shy, oooh!
Keep my glory high, keep my glory high!

(Touch me here, baby, won’t you kiss me there?)
Baby, tonight (Forever)
I like the way you’re groovin’ like you just don’t care
Tonight we’ll fly to heaven

I said (Touch me here) Touch me, baby (Baby, won’t you kiss me there?)
Dance away forever
I like the way you’re groovin’, yeah
(Tonight) Baby, (We’ll fly to heaven), tonight, oh!

(Touch me here, baby, won’t you kiss me there?)
Won’t you kiss me there? (Forever)
Forever, forever
(Tonight we’ll fly to heaven)

La Solitudine (The Loneliness)

2008-04-18T12:35:00.002+02:00

I lost a love, I met a new one
There is a pain in my heart that never will leave
There is love in my heart that never will leave

I’m sad but I’m happy, I dance but I’m crying
I want to thorn my heart out of my chest
I want to laugh till the tears roll over my cheeks

Life is such a good thing but sometimes it’s too hard to live.
Some day you will understand..

“Love means never having to say you’re sorry”

(the Love Story movie)

La Solitudine
(Sung by: Laura Pausini)

marco se n’è andato e non ritorna più
e il treno delle 7:30 senza lui
è un cuore di metallo senza l’anima
nel freddo del mattino grigio di città
a scuola il banco è vuoto, marco è dentro me
è dolce il suo respiro fra i pensieri miei
distanze enormi sembrano dividerci
ma il cuore batte forte dentro me

chissà se tu mi penserai
se con i tuoi non parli mai
se ti nascondi come me
sfuggi gli sguardi e te ne stai
rinchiuso in camera e non vuoi mangiare
stringi forte a te il cuscino
piangi e non lo sai quanto altro male ti farà la solitudine

marco nel mio diario ho una fotografia
hai gli occhi di bambino un poco timido
la stringo forte al cuore e sento che ci sei
fra i compiti d’inglese e matematica
tuo padre e i suoi consigli che monotonia
lui con il suo lavoro ti ha portato via
di certo il tuo parere non l’ha chiesto mai
ha detto “un giorno tu mi capirai”

chissà se tu mi penserai
se con gli amici parlerai
per non soffrire più per me
ma non è facile lo sai
a scuola non ne posso più
e i pomeriggi senza te
studiare è inutile tutte le idee si affollano su te
non è possibile dividere la vita di noi due
ti prego aspettami amore mio...
ma illuderti non so!

la solitudine fra noi
questo silenzio dentro me
è l’inquietudine di vivere la vita senza te
ti prego aspettami perché
non posso stare senza te
non è possibile dividere la storia di noi due

la solitudine fra noi
questo silenzio dentro me
è l’inquietudine di vivere la vita senza te
ti prego aspettami perché
non posso stare senza te
non è possibile dividere la storia di noi due
la solitudine

Shot of A Gun

2008-04-09T07:44:00.024+02:00

I know it seems like a million years ago we have been met, but it wasn’t. Maybe you’re over it. Maybe it doesn’t mean anything to you anymore, maybe it never did.

But it meant a lot to me. You still do mean a lot to me.

Would the heartache ever heal? Is it leaving you behind?
You must remember this..

“There’s nothing left to miss if you keep it locked inside..”

Shot of A Gun
(Sung by: Kane)

Tell me how you feel
Did the heartache ever heal?
Is it leaving you behind?
You must remember this
There is nothing left to miss
If you keep it locked inside

Walk in the sunlight tonight,
Pretend that it’s all right tonight
Walk in the sunlight
Yeah!

It feels like the shot of a gun
You got knocked down but you
You walk away from it
It feels like the shot of a gun

Remember long ago
All the things we didn’t know
You were feeling so alive
It seems like all those days
Young and vanished in the haze
But I’m still here tonight

Walk in the sunlight tonight,
Pretend that it’s all right tonight
Walk in the sunlight

It feels like the shot of a gun
You got knocked down but you
You walk away from it
It feels like the shot of a gun
And now it’s down
You get away with it
It feels like the shot of a gun
You walk away from it
You walk away from it

It feels like the shot of a gun
You got knocked down but you
You walk away from it
It feels like the shot of a gun
And now it’s down
You get away with it
It feels like the shot of a gun
You walk away from it
It feels like the shot of a gun

Love me like you’ll never see me again

2008-03-24T20:16:00.005+01:00

To everyone who takes love, life and friendship for granted. Its a gentle reminder to love them as much as you can while you still have them. To hold that person like if it is the last time you may see that person which true your not garanteed another day. To promise that person that that today is all we have and to say I love you instead of words we’ll regret or soon forget when day is done....

Like you’ll never see me again
(sung by: Alicia Keys)

If I had no more time
No more time left to be here
Would you cherish what we had?
Was it everything that you were looking for?
If I couldn’t feel your touch
And no longer were you with me
I’d be wishing you were here
To be everything that I’d be looking for
I don’t wanna forget the present is a gift
And I don’t wanna take for granted the time you may have here with me
‘Cause Lord only knows another day is not really guaranteed

So every time you hold me
Hold me like this is the last time
Every time you kiss me
Kiss me like you’ll never see me again
Every time you touch me
Touch me like this is the last time
Promise that you’ll love me
Love me like you’ll never see me again

Oh Oh Ohhhhh

How many really know what love is?
Millions never will
Do you know until you lose it

That it’s everything that we are looking for
When I wake up in the morning
You’re beside me
I’m so thankful that I found
Everything that I been looking for

I don’t wanna forget the present is a gift
And I don’t wanna take for granted the time you may have here with me
‘Cause Lord only knows another day is not really guaranteed

So everytime you hold me
Hold me like this is the last time
Every time you kiss me
Kiss me like you’ll never see me again
(can you do that for me baby)
Every time you touch me
(see we don’t really know)
Touch me like this is the last time
(see everyday we never know)
Promise that you’ll love me
(I want you to promise me)
Love me like you’ll never see me again
(like you’ll never see me again)

Ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh ohhh If I had no more time
No more time left to be here
Would you cherish what we had?
Was it everything that you were looking for?
If I couldn’t feel your touch
And no longer were you with me

To be everything that I’d be looking for
I don’t wanna forget the present is a gift
And I don’t wanna take for granted the time you may have here with me
‘Cause Lord only knows another day is not really guaranteed

So every time you hold me
Hold me like this is the last time
Every time you kiss me
Kiss me like you’ll never see me again
Every time you touch me

Stars

2008-01-21T14:44:00.000+01:00

Wishing and dreaming of a love so warm, and as bright as the star we both see?

Stars
(Sung by: Simply Red)

Anyone who ever held you
Would tell you the way I’m feeling
Anyone who ever wanted you
Would try to tell you what I feel inside
The only thing I ever wanted
Was the feeling that you ain’t faking
The only one you ever thought about
Wait a minute can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

For the man who tried to hurt you
He’s explaining the way I’m feeling
For all the jealousy I caused you
States the reason why I’m trying to hide
As for all the things you taught me
It sends my future into clearer dimensions
You’ll never know how much you hurt me
Stay a minute can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

Too many hearts are broken
A lover’s promise never came with a maybe
So many words are left unspoken
The silent voices are driving me crazy
As for all the pain you caused me
Making up could never be your intention
You’ll never know how much you hurt me
Stay can't you see that I

I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

Cry For You

2008-01-14T15:51:00.000+01:00

Months have been lost but can never be replaced, but my thoughts are with you. Tell me what you wanna do? The way you want me. You know we can’t go on, living like we do.

All you ever do is letting the hurt crawl up inside.
No need to cry...

Cry For You
(Sung buy: September)

I never had to say goodbye
You must have known I wouldn’t stay
While you were talking about our life
You killed the beauty of today

Forever and ever
Life is now or never
Forever never comes around

You never heard me break your heart
You didn’t wake up when we died
Since I was lonely from the start
I think the end is mine to write

Forever and ever
Life is now or never
Forever never comes around
People love and let go
Forever and ever
Life is now or never
Forever's gonna slow you down

You’ll never see me again
So now who’s gonna cry for you
You’ll never see me again
No matter what you do
You’ll never see me again
So now who’s gonna cry for you
You’ll never see me again
No matter what you do

Forever and ever
Life is now or never
Forever never comes around
Forever and ever
Life is now or never
Forever never comes around

You’ll never see me again
So now who’s gonna cry for you
You’ll never see me again
No matter what you do
You’ll never see me again
So now who’s gonna cry for you
You’ll never see me again
No matter what you do

Forever and ever
Life is now or never
Forever never comes around

Father and Friend

2008-01-11T14:49:00.000+01:00

My father and I had a simple and loving relationship. He was a remarkably good man, a person of devotion and integrity, a man who understood a hard day’s work.

You will always be his little boy no matter what. He protect me, try to ease my hurts, and make everything that can better. Wishing there were more he could do, even though he has taken on so much.

I remember when I was five years old, I always wait by the window for him to return from work. When his car stopped in the drive, my mother opened the door of our house and I rushed into his arms. He would swing me up in the air and carry me inside while I babbled about my day at kindergarten. The weekends were the best time, we played football in the backyard. Or my dad and I would watch the football games together on television.

When I was eleven years old, I discovered that it was not cool to like your father. He became “the old man”. It was more important to please my friends than my parents. My mid-teens arrived and I resisted my father’s attempt to communicate with me. I went to my friends for advice. I think deep down I still admired my father but it wasn’t cool to admit it, especially to my friends. I started to loosen up with my father and our common ground was sport. We discussed the selections each week of our favorite team.

My father’s love reached out to me and I felt relieved, I knew his love was unconditional and given no matter how I had treated him. My father was the fun part of my life. I loved him and wanted to be with him. I was pleased that I was sensitive enough to realize it and I knew I had to reach out and show him how much I loved him.

Father and Friend
(Sung by: Alain Clark and father)

Oh, papa sit down, and hear my song
Oh, and if you feel like it then please sing along
No nothing that I wanna say, I haven’t said before
But to use your words, you can never be too sure
See even though I don’t always show, I’m glad that you’re around
I Said, I’m glad that you’re around

Oh, son it’s so strange, to hear and see
That someone so different is a soul like me
You may have gone right, where I would have gone left
But son, that’s alright, I will always have your back
See even though I don’t always show, I’m proud that you’re my son.

Old days, and all of the new, wanting to be like you

Every time I look at you - oh yeah - I see myself.

I’m so proud of you.
You have made me what I am – ohhh - a better man.
I’m just so proud of you.

O dad, your views in life, tell me how they came to be.

Well see, I didn’t know my father like the way that you know me.
Son, life is just too short for us to never be in touch.

So, that’s why I Wanna tell you that I love you very much.
Oh, even though I don’t always show, you know

And I want you to know that

Every time I look at you I see myself.
And I’m so proud of you
You have made me what I am – tell me that.. a better man.

I’m just so proud of you.

I’m here, and I’ll be if I can - a father and a friend.

Oooh… every time I look at you.

Every time I look at you - what you see - I see myself.
And I’m so proud of you.
You have made me what I am.
A son and a friend.

I’m just so proud of you.

You know that one day too, I’ll be walking in your shoes.

And I know that you’ll do fine, ’cause you’re a son of mine.

Oh dear papa, tell me what you’ve learned, so that I don’t get my fingers burned.

Son, you’ll see that as you go, you’ll make mistakes of your own.
But that’s ok, man, see you live and you learn.
You live and you learn.
Oooh...

The End of A Beautiful Year

2007-12-30T19:37:00.000+01:00

I can’t believe it. The year of 2007 is coming quickly to an end. And no one will ever be able to change what happened in it. It’s always fun to change history, but you can’t go back and change it. Thankfully this year has been passed from a personal perspective, with many beautiful moments and sweet memories.

Now I’m off to get ready to ring in the New Year with my family and a lot of friends. Tomorrow it will be a new day and a new year, and I wish all of you the best in 2008! But more important, there is a world, one world that we have lend, the same moon which shares his light and the same air that we have breathe. I will try to remember that the days and years following are the real gift...

A Winter’s Tale

2007-12-24T10:38:00.000+01:00

I look out the window, a white frost like snow blanket covering the trees today. The days are colder now. My memories are warm and clear. I wish I was close enough to come sit by your fire, or you sit by mine. I feel us building a cocoon of warmth against the cold of winter. Our wave of our warmth persists and on a distant world. Your longing makes me long too. We would stay up half the night, sharing love. Just like we did before. Just like I imagine it did. Just as I picture it. You’re the drawing. I watch and I can see your colors are bright, are clear, are beautiful. It was only a winter’s tale, just another winter’s tale..

“Some memories never multiply, but new ones leave their trace....”

A Winter’s Tale
(Sung by: Queen)

It’s winter-fall
Red skies are gleaming - oh -
Sea gulls are flying over
Swans are floatin’ by
Smoking chimney-tops
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming...?

The nights draw in
There's silky moon up in the sky - yeah -
Children are fantisising
Grown-ups are standin’ by
What a super feeling
Am I dreaming
Am I dreaming...?
woh-woh-woh-woh

(draming)
So quiet and peaceful
Tranquil and blissful
There’s a kind of magic in the air
What a truly magnificent view
A breathtaking scene

With the dreams of the world
In the palm of your hand

(draming)
A cosy fireside chat
A little this, a little that
Sound of merry laughter skippin’ by
Gentle rain beatin’ on my face
What an extraordinary place!
And the dream of the child
Is the hope of the man

It’s all so beautiful
Like a landscape painting in the sky - yeah -
Mountains are zoomin’ higher - mm -
Little girls scream an’ cry
My world is spinnin’ and spinnin’ and spinnin’
It’s unbelievable
Sends me reeling
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?
Oooh – it’ a bliss.

Without You

2007-12-17T16:04:00.000+01:00

Looking back, back in time when you were here by my side. I hear a symphony, a tender melody that pushing me closer and closer to your heart. You’ve given me a true love and every day I thank you for that feelings. It’s a dream that I’ve come so far. The ups and downs were there. Friends keep telling me that this crazy loving feeling, soon it’s gonna pass.

Day by day it’s getting stronger than before. Suddenly, it all changed. You were not here, and it feels so strange. This loneliness there ain’t no hiding place. Nights get longer and colder. I can’t take another night anymore to live without you.

Without You
(Sung by: Mariah Carey)

No, I can’t forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that’s just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows

No, I can’t forget tomorrorow
When I think of all my sorrows
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it’s only fair that I should let you know
What you should know

I can’t live if living is without you
I can't live, I can’t give any more
Can’t live if living is without you
I can’t give, I can’t give any more

No, I can’t forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that’s just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows

Can’t live if living is without you
I can’t live, I can’t give anymore
I can’t live if living is without you
Can’t live, I can’t give anymore
(Living is without you)

Careless Whisper

2007-12-13T15:05:00.000+01:00

They were standing at sea beach. The darkness was embedded everywhere, there was no crowd. They were standing so close that they were getting to hear each other’s breathing. He looked at her for the last time and deciphering her eyes, what her eyes were trying to say.

An unexpected event was waiting for him. He held her hand and whispered ..“Listen, I know what you’re feeling now. I always tried to say I am not good but not too bad. I didn’t want to ruin your life. You cared for me and I think you still do. I never forget it. But remember, I always told you not to sacrifice like this because world doesn’t judge how much you cared for someone. It judge how much you have achieved. I promised you to keep contact with you whole life but I think it will affect our personal life. Stay always happy! Bye my beloved!..”

A silent cry was emerging from her heart. She didn’t want to stop him. Tears were dropping down one by one. She looked at the sea, waves were like dancing in front of her. The wind was blowing strongly. A careless whisper it reaches her mind that repeats until faded away.

Careless Whisper
(Sung by: George Michael)

Time can never mend the careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind
there’s no comfort in the truth
pain is all you'll find

Should’ve known better

I feel so unsure
as I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
as the music dies, something in your eyes
calls to mind the silver screen
and all its sad good-byes

I’m never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool

Should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I’ve been given
so I’m never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

Time can never mend
the careless whispers of a good friend
to the heart and mind
ignorance is kind
there’s no comfort in the truth
pain is all you’ll find

I’m never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool

Should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
and waste this chance that I’ve been given
so I’m never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

Never without your love

Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it’s better this way
We’d hurt each other with the things we’d want to say

We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But noone’s gonna dance with me
Please stay

And I’m never gonna dance again
guilty feet have got no rhythm
though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool

Should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I've been given
so I’m never gonna dance again
the way I danced with you

(Now that you’re gone) Now that you’re gone
(Now that you’re gone) What I did’s so wrong
that you had to leave me alone

On My Own

2007-12-07T13:22:00.000+01:00

Sometimes I walk alone at night, when everybody else is sleeping. When I lose my way I close my eyes and pretending she is beside me. When the night is over she is gone and the river is just a river.

And now I’m all alone again, nowhere to go no one to turn to. I’m not afraid to try it on my own and I’ll live my life the way I feel no matter what I’m gonna keep it real you know.

On My Own
Sung by: Patti LaBelle and Michael McDonald

So many times
Said it was forever
Said our love would always be true
Something in my heart always knew
I’d be lying here beside you
On my own
On my own
On my own

So many promises never should be spoken
Now I know what loving you cost
Now we’re up to talking divorce
And we weren’t even married
On my own
Once again now
One more time
By myself

No one said it was easy
But it once was so easy
Well I believed in love
Now here I stand
I wonder why

I’m on my own
Why did it end this way
On my own
This wasn’t how it was supposed to be
On my own
I wish that we could do it all again

So many times
I know I should have told you
Losing you it cut like a knife
You walked out and there went my life
I don’t want to live without you
On my own
On my own
On my own
Chorus Repeat

This wasn’t how it was supposed to end
I wish that we could do it all again
I never dreamed I’d spend one night alone
On my own, I’ve got to find where I belong again
I’ve got to learn how to be strong again
I never dreamed I’d spend one night alone
By myself by myself
I’ve got to find out what was mine again
My heart is saying that it’s my time again
And I have faith that I will shine again
I have faith in me
On my own
On my own
On my own

Lost

2007-11-29T21:49:00.000+01:00

I thought I lost you somewhere,
but you were never really ever there at all.
I wanna run, but only far enough to make you miss me.

If you really love someone set her free,
If she comes back, she’s meant to be,
If she doesn’t, she never was...

Lost
(Sung by Michael Bublé)

I can’t believe it’ over
I watched the whole thing fall
And I never saw the writing that was on the wall
If I’d only knew
The days were slipping past
That the good things never last
That you were crying

Summer turned to winter
And the snow it turned to rain
And the rain turned into tears upon your face
I hardly recognized the girl you are today
And god I hope it’s not too late
It’s not too late

’Cause you are not alone
I’m always there with you
And we’ll get lost together
Till the light comes pouring through
’Cause when you feel like you’re done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you’re not lost
When your worlds crashing down
And you can't bear the thought
I said, babe, you’re not lost

Life can show no mercy
It can tear your soul apart
It can make you feel like you’ve gone crazy
But you’re not
Things have seem to changed
There’s one thing that’s still the same
In my heart you have remained
And we can fly fly fly away

’Cause you are not alone
And I am there with you
And we’ll get lost together
Till the light comes pouring through
’Cause when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you’re not lost
When the worlds crashing down
And you can not bear to crawl
I said, baby, you’re not lost
I said, baby, you’re not lost
I said, baby, you’re not lost
I said, baby, you’re not lost

The Look of Love

Ever notice that there are things you will do that make perfect sense? I liked the idea that there are hundreds of ways to prove your love, yet on the scale of time, of eternity. They can last a lifetime or just a fraction of a second.

If you really want to prove that you love a woman, you should do something special for her. Something that nobody would do for her, and something that she will never forget. Making the woman you love feel like the most special person in the world. Women are easily flattered if you have the right things to say.

The look of love is saying so much more than just words could ever say...

A Walk to Remember

2007-11-23T21:58:00.000+01:00

The wind blowing as we walked towards the beach. Her hand was warm and I locked my fingers and she leaned close to me. We were silent, she gestures to sit on the sand.

I saw the light of the moon reflecting in her eyes. My thoughts were wrapped in a cloud that floated lazily in my mind. It seemed things moved in slow motion to me. I turned to look at her face. I moved my face close to her and placed my lips and kissed her. I felt the rhythm of the sea in synchronous with the rhythm of our hearts.

The moon was still bright, we got up and started to walk to the hotel. In the dark path shaded by a canopy of bouggainvilea shrubs, I saw the light coming from the window. I turned to face her. “Let’s make this night forever... forever and ever...” I can only see her silhouette, but not her eyes. She was trying to tell me something, but I didn’t know what it was, so I just stood there, holding her hand...

Fantasy

2007-11-16T21:52:00.000+01:00

Sometimes I fall asleep alone at night, dreaming of you on the moon. The sound of your voice, the pleasure of your laughter and my dreams are sweeter, my sleep richer, in its memory.

My world is woven with threads of you...

This Ain’t Gonna Work

2007-11-09T15:44:00.000+01:00

I’ve seen nights without sleep, days without daylight. These memories I keep, won’t keep me warm at night. The coldest part is the heart we share. It’s breaking apart and you’re not even here to say things will get better.

We could have been happy but sometimes.. when you hold out for everything, you walk away with nothing…

THIS AIN’T GONNA WORK
(Sung by: Alain Clark)

No sign of improving
We’re like a song that just ain’t groovin’
Oh, the harder we try
The more it seems that it’s just not right

Ooh baby, this ain’t gonna work
Baby baby, this ain’t gonna work
Ooh baby, this ain’t gonna work
baby baby, this ain’t gonna work

Girl we’ve got to make some changes
We share the same bed, but we’re living like strangers
Oh and sure we get by
But if it ain’t true, then we’re livin’, we are livin’ a lie girl

Ooh baby, this ain’t gonna work
Baby baby, this ain’t gonna work
Ooh baby, this ain’t gonna work
baby baby, this ain’t gonna work

Oh if it’s up to you and me then why aren’t we dancing
Oh I wish the powers that be would work in our way
But that ain’t like it is today

Yeah and I’m really trying to feel you girl
I really wanna want you baby
I’m not trying to leave you girl
But how am I gonna stay when

Ooh baby, this ain’t gonna work
Baby baby, this ain’t gonna work
Ooh baby, this ain’t gonna work
baby baby, this ain’t gonna work

Don’t wanna make you feel bad, but this ain’t gonna work

Me and my Virgo girl

2007-08-28T15:16:00.000+02:00

She keeps her passions under a tight rein. Outwardly she may appear calm, sometimes even remote and unreachable, for the quintessential she has a serene, almost classic repose. Yet hers is one of the most conflicted signs.

Basically, she distrusts and is a little afraid of emotion. Because of this I may wonder if she is looks a bit cold. But she isn't. Her enormous capacity for loving will pour out, as from a rich treasury, once her emotions are unlocked. She particularly is often characterized as timid, evasive, reserved. This is also untrue. What she do have is self-possession, a sense of passion that is controlled by discipline.

My girl is a combination of sensuality and conservatism. As mostly other women she likes men, but she is very careful about allowing herself to become too involved with them. She fears being trapped into a long term living arrangement with the wrong man. Before she enters into a meaningful affair, she is careful to take note where the exit doors are. For her, falling in love can take a long time. She moves forward step by step, revealing the layers of her deep sensitivity, learning to trust.

She is discriminating. Rather than go out with a man who doesn’t interest her, she’ll stay home and watch a good movie. This does not mean that she thinks lovemaking is a poor substitute for a good movie. It’s just that she doesn’t mind waiting for me (the right man) to come along. I found out behind her cool facade a real woman waiting, warm and responsive. Meanwhile, her off-putting manner has served a useful purpose.

The real clue is that I know she believes in true love. When she truly loves, her inhibitions are never in control of her passions. She is not a woman I can take for granted. I must strive hard to win her, to please her, to fulfill her. If I can, I will have a partner who pays me back in lifelong dividends of love, loyalty, and happiness.

In addition to being a great relationship with her, I will probably have the kind of friendship that will last for years and years. Even if I don’t walk down the aisle together, I will share a common understanding that will transcend time and space. What better foundation could there be?

A Real Girl

2007-08-11T01:04:00.000+02:00

So I’m back from “la luna de miel” and while I already miss my sweet lovely girl terribly. I missed her when I was away, as she is not only beautiful to look at, but she is my constant reminder of where “the love” is.

They say never to talk about whatever you have, and I usually don’t. This particular piece of words and ideas keep coming into my head, they’ll end up on paper.

I know nobody is perfect, but my beloved is a pretty sweet part of my life. She’s an amiable, sunny human being which digging her heels in and declaring “THIS IS ME!”...

It’s certainly implying that she never pretend to be something, you get what you see. She’s just a real girl and don’t need permission from nobody else to be herself. She’s not a little girl. She know exactly who she is...

Real Girl
(Sung by: Mutya Buena)

If I had one chance to
In my life again
I wouldn’t make no changes
Now or way back when (yeah)
And if everything turns out
The way I hope it goes
But I cant wait to find out
What it is that God knows

But I don’t wanna think about
What’s gonna come around for me
I’ll just take it day by day
‘Cause it’s the only way
To be the best that I can be

I never pretend to be something I’m not
You get what you see, when you see what I’ve got
We live in the real world, I’m just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand

And all I can do is be true to myself
I don’t need permission from nobody else
‘Cause this is the real world, I’m not a little girl
I know exactly who I am

And nothing’s ever perfect
There’s no guarantee
And if I knew the answers
It would put my mind at ease (no)
So I’ll just keep on going
The way I’ve gone so far
And maybe I’ll end up
Tryin’ to catch a fallin star (yeah)

But I don’t wanna think about
What’s gonna come around for me
I’ll just take it day by day
‘Cause it’s the only way
To be the best that I can be

I never pretend to be something I’m not
You get what you see, when you see what I’ve got
We live in the real world, I’m just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand

And all I can do is be true to myself
I don’t need permission from nobody else
‘Cause this is the real world, I’m not a little girl
I know exactly who I am

Baby this is who I am
Don’t need you to understand
‘Cause everything is right where it should be
It wont be long til you know about me,
‘Cause I don’t give a...
Even when I’m out of love
‘Cause everythings just how it should be
And it wont be long till you know about me

I never pretend to be something I’m not
You get what you see, when you see what I’ve got
We live in the real world, I’m just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand

And all I can do is be true to myself
I don’t need permission from nobody else
‘Cause this is the real world, I’m not a little girl
I know exactly who I am

I never pretend to be something I’m not
You get what you see, when you see what I’ve got
We live in the real world, I’m just a real girl
I know exactly where I stand

And all I can do is be true to myself
I don’t need permission from nobody else
‘Cause this is the real world, I’m not a little girl
I know exactly who I am

Pilihan atau Kesempatan

2007-07-28T23:08:00.000+02:00

Ketika kita bertemu orang yang tepat untuk dicintai
Ketika kita berada di tempat pada saat yang tepat
Itulah kesempatan

Ketika engkau bertemu dengan seseorang yang membuatmu tertarik
Itu bukan pilihan itu kesempatan
Bertemu dalam suatu peristiwa bukanlah pilihan
Itupun adalah kesempatan

Bila engkau memutuskan untuk mencintai orang tersebut
Bahkan dengan segala kekurangannya
Itu bukan kesempatan, itu adalah pilihan

Ketika engkau memilih bersama dengan seseorang
walaupun apapun yang terjadi
Itu adalah pilihan

Bahkan ketika kau menyadari bahwa masih banyak orang lain
Yang lebih menarik, pandai, dan kaya daripada pasanganmu
dan Tetap engkau memilih untuk mencintainya
Itulah pilihan

Perasaan cinta, simpatik, tertarik
Datang bagai kesempatan pada kita
Tetapi cinta sejati yang abadi adalah pilihan
Pilihan yang kita lakukan

Nasib membawa kita bersama
Tetapi tetap bergantung pada kita
bagaimana membuat semuanya berhasil

Kita ada di dunia bukan untuk mencari seseorang
yang sempurna untuk dicintai
TETAPI untuk belajar mencintai orang
Yang tidak sempurna dengan cara yang
Sempurna.

”...Belahan jiwa tidak bisa dicari namun bisa diciptakan
Dia memang ada... rasakan karena dia ada dalam hatimu...”
Love you!!!...

Pertemuan part II

2007-07-25T22:27:00.001+02:00

Sambungan dari Pertemuan part I - July 21, 2007

Esok harinya adalah hari istimewa, soalnya aku berdua dengan Tari rame-rame sudah janji untuk ketemu dengan teman-temanku Taa (aka Trazzy), Gita (aka Jenny) dengan teman, Tieka (aka Doweh), Nia (aka Xonyell), Iin dan Sandy. Dan juga teman-teman dari kekasihku seperti Heria, Rini, Jojo dengan teman (lupa namanya) dan Indah. Segalanya telah direncanakan dan diatur dengan sukses oleh kapten Iin dan anak buahnya.

Tak ada kata bangga yang berlebihan yang aku punya, kecuali satu syukur dan terima kasih atas keberadaan dan perhatian dari teman-teman lama dan teman-teman baru.

Untuk teman-teman yang gak bisa hadir karena kebetulan ada acara lain atau lagi gak libur seperti Ririn (aka Sekartaji), Neni (aka DD), Hera (aka Ashter) dan Rein (aka Trisula) aku dengan Tari ucapkan terima kasih juga untuk perhatian kalian!…

Untuk teman lama Lady (aka Bakul Ganja), yang aku lupa undang, mohon dimaafkan. Untuk teman baru Imut/Mumut (aka Vespa), terima kasih mau nemenin aku jalan-jalan bersama dengan Taa.

“Good friends must always hold hands, but true friends do not need to hold hands because they know the other hand will always be there…”

Pertemuan part I

2007-07-21T03:06:00.001+02:00

Tak sedikit orang yang rajin chatting di Internet mendapatkan teman. Berawal dari sekedar ngobrol di chatroom, hubungan pertemanan itu pun bisa berlanjut ke hubungan yang lebih dekat, pacaran dan menjadi suami-istri.

Malam Minggu 7 Juli 2007, seperti kekasih yang sekian lama berpisah, aku sangat merindukan dengan kekasihku. Pertemuanku dengan idamanku itu berlangsung amat mesra. Kita bercanda dan bercengkrama bersama dengan penuh kasih sayang seperti layaknya sepasang suami-istri.

Ah, pendek kata segala yang ada pada dirinya mampu meraih segenap perasaan hatiku. Sehari semalam bersamanya bagaikan sejam aja yang cepat berlalu…

~~~~~

Menghitung hari

2007-07-02T22:46:00.000+02:00

Ini bukan lagu, bukan menghitung hari lagunya Krisdayanti tapi tanggal 7 Juli 2007 adalah hari pertemuanku dengan kekasihku. Kejadian yang benar-benar sudah lama aku tunggu-tunggu. Menghitung hari, detik demi detik, menunggu itu kan menjemukantapi sekarang saatnya aku berhenti menghitung hari hampir tiba. Yang semuanya tadi hanya dalam kenangan lalu dan dalam impian akan jadi kenyataan.

Rasanya sudah tidak sabar menunggu hari itu datang, menunggu tangan kanan dan tangan kiriku bebas memelukmu erat, menjelajahi redupnya cahaya matamu, menjelajahi senyum manismu, menjelajahi kecantikan wajahmu, membelai lembut indah rambutmu membelai merah pipimu dan mengecup bibirmu.

Saat kita akan berkumpul lagi melepaskan rindu, selalu ada cerita tentang kemarin, tentang hari ini, tentang saat yang indah sekarang dan tentang nanti...

Change

2007-06-26T22:45:00.000+02:00

There are many things in my life that I wish I could take back. Those were things done in the heat of passion, when my emotions were out of control. There are words I wished I hadn't spoken. One of the drawbacks of having instant communication is that I could ‘say’ things that aren’t what I really meant. Things I would never say to somebody’s face.

If I could turn back time, could I make things right? Or could a different song express my feelings? It’s a very hard question to answer, even if I could change the things that I have done, I cannot change who I am…

Change
(sung by Lisa Stansfield)

Chorus:

If I could change the way I live my life today

I wouldn’t change a single thing

’Cause if I changed my world into another place

I wouldn’t see your smiling face

Honey don’t you worry, there’s nothin’ to worry for

’Cause if I didn’t love you I wouldn’t be here now

And if I didn’t want you I would have turned around by now

You’ve got to believe me babe, believe that I love you so

’Cause if I didn’t love you I would have turned around

And if I didn’t want you, then I would want you out

This love, this love has filled me up

Ooh my love I’ll never give you up

’Cause I’ll always want your love

(Chorus)

If I could change the way I live my life today

I wouldn’t change a single thing

’Cause if I changed my world into another place

I wouldn’t see your smiling face

Believing is the answer, the answer to all your fears

When I first said I loved you, I went in for the kill

Now when I say I love you, I mean I always will

This love, this love has filled me up

Ooh my love I’ll never give you up

’Cause I’ll always want your love

(Chorus)

If I could change the way I live my life today

I wouldn’t change a single thing

(Chorus)
If I could change the way I live my life today

I wouldn’t change a single thing

’Cause if I changed my world into another place

I wouldn’t see your smiling face

You're My Everything

2007-06-13T22:46:00.000+02:00

Call Me Irresponsible, album ketiga dari Michale Buble achirnya dirilis, tepatnya 1 Mei bulan kemarin. Single pertama yang dikeluarkan adalah “Everything”. Aaahhh, aku langsung senang begitu denger lagu ini, menenangkan hati banget. Apalagi sambil dengerin lagu ini dan ada orang tersayang disebelahku yang kupeluk mesra…

Musiknya ceria dan lagunya romantis banget. Aku tujukan kepada semua pecinta love song..

Everything
(Sung by: Michael Buble)

You’re a falling star, You’re the get away car.

You’re the line in the sand when I go too far.

You’re the swimming pool, on an August day.

And you’re the perfect thing to say.

And you play you’re coy, but it’s kinda cute.

Ah, When you smile at me you know exactly what you do.

Baby don’t pretend, that you don’t know it’s true.

Cause you can see it when I look at you.

[Chorus:]

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times

It’s you, it’s you, You make me sing.

You’re every line, you’re every word, you’re everything.

You’re a carousel, you’re a wishing well,

And you light me up, when you ring my bell.

You’re a mystery, you’re from outer space,

You’re every minute of my everyday.

And I can’t believe, that I’m your man,

And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.

Whatever comes our way, ah we’ll see it through,

And you know that’s what our love can do.

[Chorus:]

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times

It’s you, it’s you, You make me sing.

You’re every line, you’re every word, you’re everything.

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

[Chorus:]

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times

It’s you, it’s you, You make me sing.

You’re every line, you’re every word, you’re everything.

You’re every song, and I sing along.

’Cause you’re my everything.

Yeah, yeah

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

Janji, dipagi hari

2007-06-09T23:19:00.000+02:00

Tanganku masih saja kemana-mana dan masih berusaha membangunkan dirinya. Tanganku terus saja kemana-mana dan masih terus membuatnya geli dan tak bisa tidur lagi.

Aku merasakan ada sesuatu yang teramat dekat ditelinga.. Terdengar sebuah bisikan lirih tapi jelas terdengar.. “Sayang, janji jangan tinggalin aku yaa!!!”.... balasku segera tanpa menunggu.. “Iya, aku janji”.. Sementara itu tanganku tak kemana-mana, karena ada digenggamannya.. lalu hening untuk beberapa waktu.. “Sayang, kamu juga janji yaa!!”.. “Iya, janji”...

Setelah itu tangan usilku kembali kemana-mana dan benar-benar membuatnya tak ngantuk lagi..

Hitam Putih

2007-06-06T23:35:00.000+02:00

putih adalah putih

hitam adalah hitam

hidup adalah hidup

sekalipun putih bukan berarti tidak bisa hitam

sekalipun hitam bukan berarti tidak bisa putih

tingkah orang cermin diri
sifat seumpama warna yang dapat berubah!

“sifat dasar manusia yang tidak pernah merasa puas

atas apa yang sudah diraih,

apa yang sudah dimiliki”...

Kau adalah yang terbaik

2007-06-03T23:02:00.000+02:00

dalam kegelisahanku, kau tenangkan aku...

dalam dukaku, kau hibur diriku...

dalam kesukaanku, kau tertawa bersamaku...

kini kutahu seperti apa surga itu...

tempat yang penuh dengan orang-orang...

seperti dirimu...

kau adalah yang terbaik...

yang pernah mengenalku...

bagaimana aku tidak menyayangimu...

Dealova - Once (OST Dealova)

Aku ingin menjadi mimpi indah dalam tidurmu

Aku ingin menjadi sesuatu yg mungkin bisa kau rindu

Karena langkah merapuh tanpa dirimu

Oh karena hati tlah letih

Aku ingin menjadi sesuatu yg selalu bisa kau sentuh

Aku ingin kau tahu bahwa ku selalu memujamu

Tanpamu sepinya waktu merantai hati

Oh bayangmu seakan-akan

Kau seperti nyanyian dalam hatiku

Yang memanggil rinduku padamu

Seperti udara yg kuhela kau selalu ada

Hanya dirimu yg bisa membuatku tenang

Tanpa dirimu aku merasa hilang

Dan sepi, dan sepi

Selalu ada, kau selalu ada

Hatiku terbayangkan kamu,

Jiwaku hanya milikmu,

Jiwaku ingin memilikimu,

Diriku ingin bersama kamu,

Diriku ingin selalu mendampingi kamu,

Kasihku hanya padamu,

Anganku indah bersama kamu,

Mimpiku kita bersatu,

Fantasiku hanya kamu,

Realitiku bersamamu 070707...

SMSmu

2007-05-24T00:29:00.000+02:00

Aku tak pernah merasa bosan untuk membaca kembali smsmu karena selalu ada kisah baru hinggap di kepalaku. Selalu ada hal baru saat aku kembali membaca lembar demi lembar dari smsmu. Dan kasih sayangku semakin tak tahu arah.

Membaca satu-satu huruf dari smsmu, jiwaku hanyut dan tenggelam dalam kerinduan yang dalam. Aku terharu dan merasa sangat rindu. Ada banyak kata indah yang tiba-tiba ingin kukirim untukmu, berjuta-juta kata. Hanya untukmu.

Kekasihku, berapa sms lagi yang akan kau kirim dan aku baca untuk membawa kita pada sebuah masa dimana dunia hanya milik berdua? Berapa banyak huruf yang harus kau kirimkan padaku hingga kau benar-benar hadir lagi di sampingku?

Aku tak akan lari meninggalkanmu dan melupakan semua mimpi kita. Yang terjadi adalah sebaliknya. Kasih sayangku makin membara padamu. Bumi boleh terbalik, jaman boleh edan, tapi kasih sayang kita harus tetap berjalan.

Tapi kekasihku, kita tak harus mengalah pada dunia bukan?

Aku menyanyangimu!!!...

Ask me

2007-05-21T23:09:00.000+02:00

Ask my eyes to stop looking at you

Ask my brain to stop thinking about you

Ask my imagination to stop dreaming about you

Ask my hands to stop reaching you

Ask my legs to stop walking towards you

Ask my heart to stop beating for you

Ask me everything…

but don’t you ever stop me from LOVING you!!..

Kamu bisa, Aku bisa

2007-05-18T21:23:00.000+02:00

Pernikahan adalah gerbang besar menuju cinta abadi. Dimana kamu dan aku menyesuaikan diri. Dimana pelukan dan kecupan adalah selamanya. Saling memberi hingga titik akhir, saling menerima tanpa pernah berakhir.

Sayang.. ikatan kita ini tetap terjalin walau waktu terus menguji. Diantara kasih sayang dan cinta dua hati, indah saling berpegang janji, menunggu bukanlah sehari. Butuh kekuatan, kejujuran dan kehangatan, bahkan ketulusan akan kasih setia. Teruslah selalu begitu, bahagia, damai dan mencinta dalam rasa hingga akhir menutup masa, hingga mata tertutup usia…

Kamu bisa.. aku bisa.. kita mampu.. dan aku tahu itu!!

Kembali Utuh

2007-05-15T22:13:00.000+02:00

Seperti bertemu dengan matahari dipagi hari aku merasakan hangatnya sinar dan ceria atas kehadiranmu. Itulah yang kurasakan dihati dan itulah membuatku selalu optimis didalam kehidupan bersamamu.

Harapan yang pernah hilang kini hadir kembali. Semangat yang remuk kini bersatu lagi karena telah kutemukan pecahan yang hilang dalam hidupku. Kini lengkap sudah semangatku. Semua ini karena kehadiranmu.

Kau membuatku.....utuh....

We Are One

2007-05-12T00:41:00.000+02:00

The lights are out, a candle flickers nearby casting shadows on the wall, and we are once again nestled in each other’s care.

I love intimacy. I love being close to you, as close as possible without touching you, making you want me to come just a little closer. I love it when you want me so much you can’t stand it anymore and you reach out and pull me to you. I love feeling the depth of your desire as it meets my own. I love the smell of you and the smell of me and the smell of us together.

When I touch you, I love your response. I love feeling your pleasure in what I give. I love how your pleasure becomes my own. When you respond to my body taking pleasure in yours, you are giving me the gift of feeling the pleasure of my own. When I feel your response to my touch I become the gift, the giver and the receiver all in one and there is no distinction of who is giving and who is receiving. This is our gift to each other.

We hold each other and in our holding we are one, comforter and comforted, by and to each other. We are one…

Video Music to watch: We are One (sung by Kelly Sweet)

Bisikan kata-katamu

2007-05-08T22:49:00.000+02:00

Sayang, diluar sana hujan mengguyur sejak siang hingga di tengah malam buta ini. Pikiranku sepenuhnya tertuju kepadamu. Dalam kesunyian malam yang biasa, dalam kesendirian yang sama, aku membuka lagi lembar demi lembar percakapan kita. Mencumbu setiap kata-katamu. Entah untuk keberapa kalinya aku melakukan itu, memeluk bayanganmu seolah-olah aku telah benar benar memeluk dirimu seutuhnya.

Bagiku kata-katamu adalah cahaya bintang yang tak pernah padam, sebab ia telah menjadi untaian janji antara kita untuk selalu bersama selamanya. Setiap kata dan segalanya darimu bagiku adalah abadi, dan aku juga tahu semua itu datang dari seluruh sudut sudut jiwamu yang paling dalam.

Seperti bisikanmu yang ku dengar nyata : “Aku sayang kamu” ...

Dunia Maya, Dunia Nyata

2007-05-06T23:05:00.000+02:00

Kejadian di dunia nyata bisa terbawa ke dunia maya dan kejadian di dunia maya bisa terbawa ke dunia nyata. Emosi yang diciptakan di dunia maya bisa menjadi emosi yang nyata di dunia nyata. Terutama jika kita sudah mempercayai lawan bicara kita di dunia maya.

Kau masih ingat sayang? Bagaimana saat pertama kali aku mengenalmu.

Masihkah kau ingat dialog itu, sayang? Aku tak pernah melupakannya sampai sekarang. Dari sanalah aku menemukan keindahanmu. Sejak kasih sayangmu yang menenangkan hatiku, aku menyadari, tanpamu jiwaku tak menjelma apapun. Ragaku hanya bongkahan tanpa makna.

Aku akan masuk ke rumah kita. Aku rindu belai tanganmu saat memandikan aku dengan air yang kau siapkan jauh sebelum kedatanganku. Aku bahagia dalam tidur bersamamu, sebab engkau tak pernah melupakan bunga-bunga surga yang kau kirim kedalam mimpiku.

Jujur sayang, hanya denganmu aku bahagia. Dekap aku selamanya! Jangan tinggalkan aku. Aku tak ingin kau meninggalkanku setelah sekian lama kau biarkan aku membelai jiwamu dengan kata-kata puisi. Setelah kau biarkan aku mengecup bibir rindumu. Setelah kau biarkan aku menyetubuhi malam-malammu.

Biarkan aku tetap menjadi milikmu. Sebab aku, amat menyanyangimu!...

Untukmu, Untukku

2007-05-03T23:38:00.000+02:00

Kata-kata telah habis kutumpahkan untukmu. Kini hanya tinggal pembuktian, bahwa kata-kata bisa mewujud menjadi kenyataan. Dengan kekuatan yang aku miliki, dengan keterbatasan yang akan menghalangi. Aku akan mewujudkan mimpimu.

Tersenyumlah sayang!

Sebab esok, adalah hari bahagia untukmu! Untukku!

A Pillow Way

2007-04-29T00:02:00.000+02:00

She was looking for someone who can move her..
but he did more than that..
He has shaken her world upside down.
He makes every ordinary day unexpectedly complete.

She was the sweetest kind of chaos.
He lives with no excuses.
She loves with no regrets.
Everyday she makes the longest journey from her head to her heart.

The night was always too long without him and the day was too fast.
There is no moment she doesn’t ache for his scent
His presence gives her butterflies.
Just even thinking of his touch is like bliss en route to her spine.
Each moment is like a favorite song, everyday like a dance.

Somewhere there is a secret sky
Where they would actually touch.
One day out of darkness they shall meet
And read life’s meanings in their eyes.
They would just be a pillow away…

Taking a step without feet… in time…

Destination Calabria (Tujuan Tak Dikenal)

2007-04-26T00:01:00.000+02:00

Sayang, ketika suaramu mengalun di telingaku adalah debar yang tak kutahu.
Entah darimana datangnya hingga aku tak sanggup menahan gemuruhnya, mengguncang seluruh persendianku, ototku dan jiwaku!

Seribu kata telah kusiapkan terbang entah kemana, tapi aku bahagia. Awal rasa bahagia untuk selamanya. Kasih sayang telah membuktikan dirinya, begitu hebatnya, begitu misterinya, begitu indahnya! Entah kenapa...

Sayang, apakah kau merasakan yang sama?

Destination calabria

(Videoclip: Alex Gaudino ft Crystal Waters)

Destination unknown (known known known known known)

A destination unknown.

Pelukmu dan pelukku

Kali ini aku kembali melamunkanmu. Entah yang keberapa kali, mungkin yang keseratus, keseribu, atau kesejuta kalinya. Matamu, senyummu, tawamu, suaramu melintas, berputar-putar, menari-nari di depanku. Kadang-kadang semua itu ikut berbaring di tempat tidurku sebab aku merasakannya. Merasakan engkaulah hangat itu, engkaulah yang membelai dengan mimpi indah itu, engkaulah yang memberi kecupan-kecupan lembut itu. Aku sadar dan menikmati semua itu.

Saat ini kita sama-sama berlari, sebab dengan sadar aku mendengar langkah-langkahmu itu. Langkahmu menujuku, dan apakah engkau mendengar langkah-langkahku kekasih? Aku yang berlari ke arahmu hingga nanti dua peluk itu akan menjadi satu. Pelukmu dan pelukku...

Jarak

2007-04-16T23:10:00.000+02:00

Menghukum kita, sayang?

Salah apa kita terhadap waktu, terhadap jarak dan terhadap usia?Adakah kesalahan yang telah kita buat? Bukankah kita hanya ingin mencinta? Berbagi kisah bersama? Menguntai cerita? Kenapa kita yang harus dihukumnya? Kenapa?

Jarak ini memang jahat, teramat jahat.

Tapi sayang… bisakah jarak kita rubah menjadi bukan lagi sesuatu yang menyakitkan? Menjadi sesuatu yang membahagiakan. Kita kalahkan jarak, sayang. Biarkan dia menyakiti kita. Tapi kita bahagia atas itu semua. Bisakah kekasihku? Aku yakin engkau bisa. Dan aku yakin, engkau juga lebih bisa membawaku, membawa jarak ini pada sesuatu yang membahagiakan, bukan menyakitkan.

Aku akan menunggumu membawaku merubah jarak ini!!!

My Beloved Mother

2007-04-13T23:17:00.000+02:00

This is dedicated to my wonderful mother, who left this world at the age of 76. It was more than 40 days ago this April. My mother was elegant and sophisticated, extremely fashionable, bright and beautiful with a sweet softness about her. She was very outgoing and had lots of friends. She loved the ocean and always dreamed of living in Indonesia with an ocean view. Her favorite hobbies were gardening, cooking and dancing. She was an amazing woman.

My mother was delighted to be such a grandmother! She loved taking her great-grandchildren to her home for visits and spoiled him with candies, toys, stuffed animals and clothes.

My life has never been the same without you. You made everything so special and so elaborate! I have inherited your ways of doing things like that... it makes me feel as if you are still with me.

I remember before I was going to Asia for a business trip, she said to me from her sickbed at the hospital …“John, every night make sure that you look up at the moon. No matter where you are or how far away you go, we will always be looking at that same moon… And I’ll be thinking of you”… That meant something very special to me. I will never forget you telling me that and still, every time I look up at the moon I think of you, and I wonder if you can see the moon where ever you are.

What a lovely person she was and how lucky I was to have had her in my life. I only wish I could have had her forever. She left this world far to soon. She had so much to offer. I know deep within me that I have a very special angel watching over me.

Those were wonderful memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life…

RESEP MASAKAN CINTA

Bahan:

1 pria sehat,

1 wanita sehat,

100% Komitmen,

2 pasang doa restu orang tua,

1 botol kasih sayang murni.

Bumbu:

1 balok besar humor,

25 gram rekreasi,

1 bungkus doa,

2 sendok teh telpon-telponan,

Semuanya diaduk hingga merata dan mengembang.

Tips:

Pilih pria dan wanita yang benar-benar matang dan seimbang.

- Jangan yang satu terlalu tua dan yang lainnya terlalu muda karena dapat mempengaruhi kelezatan.

- Jangan beli di pasar yang bernama DISKOTIK atau PARTY karena walaupun modelnya bagus dan harum baunya tapi kadang menipu konsumen atau kadang menggunakan zat pewarna yang bisa merusak kesehatan.

Cara Memasak:

- Pria dan Wanita dicuci bersih, buang semua masa lalunya sehingga tersisa niat yang murni.

- Kue siap dinikmati.

Catatan:

Kue ini dapat dinikmati oleh pembuatnya seumur hidup dan paling enak dinikmati dalam keadaan kasih yang hangat. Tapi kalau sudah agak dingin, tambahkan lagi humor segar secukupnya, rekreasi sesuai selera, serta beberapa potong doa kemudian dihangatkan lagi di oven bermerek "Tempat Ibadah" diatas api cinta.

Setelah mulai hangat, jangan lupa telepon-teleponan bila berjauhan.

From Sarah With Love

2007-04-07T23:51:00.000+02:00

She’s fragile, she’s hurt, she’s already got enough painful memories
Don’t use her, don’t leave her with all those painful memories
Don’t tell her you love her when really you don’t even want her
Don’t tell her you love her unless you’re gonna stay around even when the going gets tough

So maybe the chance for romance is like a train to catch before it’s gone and I’ll keep on waiting and dreaming you’re strong enough to understand as long as you’re so far away I’m sending a letter each day... From Sarah With Love

>From Sarah With Love
(Sung by Sarah Connor)

[Verse 1:]

For so many years we were friends

And yes I always knew what we could do

But so many tears in the rain

Felt the night you said

That love had come to you

I thought you were not my kind

I thought that I could never feel for you

The passion and love you were feeling

And so you left
For someone new

And now that you’re far and away
I’m sending a letter today

[Chorus:]

From Sarah with love

She’d got the lover she is dreaming of

She never found the words to say

But I know that today

She’s gonna send her letter to you

From Sarah with love

She took your picture to the stars above

And they told her it is true

She could dare to fall in love with you

So don’t make her blue when she writes to you

From Sarah with love

[Verse 2:]

So maybe the chance for romance

Is like a train to catch before it’s gone

And I’ll keep on waiting and dreaming

You’re strong enough

To understand

As long as you’re so far away

I’m sending a letter each day

[Chorus]

[Last chorus:]

From Sarah with love

She’d got the lover she is dreaming of

She never found the words to say

But I know that today

She’s gonna send her letter to you

From Sarah with love

She’s gotta know what you are thinking of

’Cause every little now and then

And again and again

I know her heart cries out for you

From Sarah with love

She’d got the lover she is dreaming of

Never found the words to say, ahh

But today, but today...

From Sarah with love

She took your picture to the stars above

And they told her it is true

She could dare to fall in love with you

So don’t make her blue when she writes to you

From Sarah with love

[Coda:]

So don’t make me blue when I write to you

From Sarah with love...

Pelangi

2007-04-05T23:09:00.000+02:00

Sore hari, disebuah jalanan yang padat, hujan turun rintik. Sementara matahari sore masih bersinar terang. Di saat-saat seperti ini, alam menghadiahkan pemandangan yang indah untuk kita? Saat butir-butir air membiaskan spektrum-spektrum cahaya, merangkai membentuk lengkungan warna-warni alam.

Pelangi? Dimanakah kau pelangi? Ingin aku melihat pelangi lagi setelah entah kapan terakhir menyaksikannya. Seharusnya ia ada di sebelah kiri jalan ini, karena matahari ada di kanan. Namun dimanakah kau bersembunyi?

Ah, pelangi. Kuingin melihat pelangi...

Matahari mulai menghilang. Aku masih berada dijalanan yang sama, dengan kemacetan yang sama…

Berbicara tentang pelangi, kuingat kata-kata seseorang:
“Buatkan aku dua lukisan cat air. Satu lukisan warna-warni pelangi. Satu lagi lukisan kusamnya campuran seluruh warna. Akan kupajang keduanya berdampingan. Ini untuk selalu mengingatkanku bahwa hidup bagaikan warna-warni sekotak cat air. Kita yang menentukan bagaimana lukisan dari warna-warni itu. Kalau kita menata warna-warni tersebut dengan baik, akan tercipta indahnya pelangi. Kalau kita mengkacaukannya, mencampur-adukkan semua, yang ada hanyalah warna suram kecoklatan.”

Gak peduli

2007-03-29T23:11:00.000+02:00

Cinta itu gak mengenal bentuk dan waktu, terkadang dia datangnya waktu aku gak pengen dia datang. Cinta itu terkadang nyenengin banget, bisa ngelakuin segalanya, tapi lebih sering nyakitin. Tetap saja cinta adalah cinta…

Malam sudah larut sekali dan mungkin gak banyak orang yang masih menjaga jarak antara bulu mata atas dan bawah. Dengar lagu dari John Legend mengalun indah. Judulnya “PDA (We Just Don’t Care)”. Tentang keberanian menunjukkan cinta di muka umum. Dengar saja liriknya yang berbunyi:

“Let’s go to the park
I wanna kiss you underneath the stars

Maybe we’ll go too far

We just don’t care, we just don’t care, we just don’t care”…

Sambil bayangin... kayaknya asyik juga ciuman di tengah taman di bawah sinar bulan purnama. Gak peduli sama kabut pikiran orang yang mikir macam-macam dari aku dengan dia. Toh mereka gak bisa ngebedain yang aku aku alamin dengan dia. Biar semua orang tau kalau aku cinta dia. Biar jadi bahan omongan juga gak papa. Aku bangga jadi kekasihmu...

I don’t care what people say, just follow my own way..

PDA (We Just Don’t Care)
(sung by John Legend)

Let’s go to the park

I wanna kiss you underneath the stars
Maybe we’ll go too far

We just don’t care

You know I love it when you’re loving me

But sometimes it’s better when it’s publicly

I’m not ashamed, I don’t care who sees

us hugging and kissing, a love exibition, oh

We’ll rendezvous out on the fire escape

I’d like to set off an alarm today

A love emergency don’t make me wait

Just follow, I’ll lead you

I urgently need you

Let’s go to the park

I wanna kiss you underneath the stars

Maybe we’l go too far

We just don’t care

Let’s make love,

let’s go somewhere they might discover us

Let’s get lost in lust

We just don’t care

I see you’re closing down the restaurant

Let’s sneak and do it when your boss is gone

Everybody’s leaving, we’ll have some fun

Oh, maybe it’s wrong, but you’re turnin’ me on

Oh, we’ll take a visit to your mama’s house

Creep to the bedroom while your mama’s out

Maybe she’ll hear it when we scream and shout,

but we’ll keep it rockin’ until she comes knockin’

Let’s go to the park

I wanna kiss you underneath the stars

Maybe we’ll go too far

We just don’t care

Let’s make love,

let’s go somewhere they might discover us

Let’s get lost in lust

We just don’t care

If we keep up all this foolin’ around

We’ll be the talk of the town

I’ll tell the world of our love any time

Let’s open the blinds’

Cause we really don’t mind

Oh I don’t care about propriety

Let’s break the rules ignore society

Maybe your neighbors like to spy it’s true

So what if they watch, when we do what we do, ohhh

Let’s go to the park

I wanna kiss you underneath the stars

Maybe we’ll go too far

We just don’t care

We just don’t…

Let’s make love,

let’s go somewhere they might discover us

Let’s get lost in lust…

Wanting

2007-03-28T23:03:00.000+02:00

“I want to kiss you with my eyes wide open.
I want to make love to you with all the lights on.
I want to touch the most tender part of you.
Meet you with the tender part of me.
I want to dance with you when there’s no band playing.
Say to me that I am all that you need.
Sing to me a love song and say you mean it.

Hold me close and make me complete!”

McBealism

2007-03-22T23:51:00.000+01:00

“I have to believe that it works…
that when two people come together they stay together.
I have to take that to bed with me at night even if I’m going to bed alone.”

I wish you were here...

Sebuah Renungan untuk seorang teman

2007-03-20T23:41:00.000+01:00

Apa pun yang anda lakukan, lakukanlah dengan kebaikan hati. Keberhasilan bukan semata-mata karena kekuatan otot dan ketajaman pikiran. Anda perlu bertindak dengan kelembutan hati.

Sukses tidak selalu dibangun di atas upaya sendiri. Di balik semua pencapaian, terselip pengorbanan orang lain. Hanya bila anda melakukannya dengan kebaikan hati, siapa pun rela berkorban untuk keberhasilan anda.

Semua tindakan anda bagaikan bumerang yang akan kembali pada anda. Bila anda melempar dengan baik, ia akan kembali dalam tangkapan. Namun, bila anda ceroboh melemparkannya, ia akan datang untuk melukai anda.

Renungkan bagaimana tindakan anda sekarang ini. Lakukan segala semuanya dengan tulus dan penuh kasih. Tiada yang lebih manis daripada memetik buah atas kebaikan yang anda lakukan...

Penindasan Wanita (Woman in Chains)

2007-03-18T23:11:00.000+01:00

Woman in Chains

You better love loving and you better behave
You better love loving and you better behave
Woman in chains
Woman in chains

Calls her man the great white hope
Says she’s fine, she’ll always cope
Woman in chains
Woman in chains

Well I feel lying and waiting is a poor man’s deal
And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel
It’s a world gone crazy
Keeps woman in chains

Trades her soul as skin and bones
Sells the only thing she owns
Woman in chains
Woman in chains

Men of stone
Men of stone

Well I feel deep in your heart there are wounds time can’t heals
And I feel somebody somewhere is trying to breathe
Well you know what I mean
It’s a world gone crazy
Keeps woman in chains

It’s under my skin but out of my hands
I’ll tear it apart but I won’t understand
I will not accept the greatness of man

It’s a world gone crazy
Keeps woman in chains

So free her
So free her

~~ Sung by: Tears for Fears featuring Oletta Adams

Ketika perempuan masuk dunia kerja, sering mendapat pekerjaan yang paling susah di pabrik atau kantor, dengan upah yang paling rendah, sekaligus terus dibebani dengan kebanyakan tugas rumah tangga seperti memasak, mencuci dan mengasuh anak-anak.

Perempuan menderita pelecehan seksual dan pemerkosaan, sekaligus dalam media massa dari pornografi sampai ke iklan biasa mereka digambarkan sebagai makhluk yang cantik atau sensual saja, sepertinya tidak mempunyai ciri yang lain. Namun ironisnya, jika perempuan berhubungan seks terlalu bebas, pasti dicap “tanpa susila”.

Dorongan bekerja di luar negeri, termasuk di Hong Kong, muncul saat calon tenaga kerja itu mendengar cerita sukses rekan mereka yang pernah bekerja disitu. Dorongan pergi itu semakin kuat saat menghadapi realita bahwa di negerinya, lahan pekerjaan begitu sempit, bahkan hampir tidak ada, dan upah yang diterima pun sangat kecil.

Dalam benak umum barangkali setiap mendengar kata TKW (tenaga kerja wanita Indonesia), yang segera terbayang adalah sosok seorang pekerja kasar dan pembantu rumah tangga. Pekerjaan yang dipandang dengan sebelah mata karena memang bukanlah pekerjaan ideal dalam kehidupan.

Para TKW tidak pernah memandang pekerjaan yang memberikan penghasilan kepada diri dan keluarga sebagai sesuatu yang hina. Mereka memandang kerja itu mulia dan hidup dari buah kerja sendiri, bersandarkan pada dua tangan perempuan yang bekerja keras tanpa menadah belas-kasihan. Kerja membentuk manusia.

Jumlah TKW asal Indonesia yang bekerja di Hong Kong meningkat pesat, mungkin sudah melampaui jumlah TKW asal Filipina. Peningkatan ini membuktikan bahwa jasa yang diberikan TKW Indonesia lebih disukai dibanding TKW dari Filipina atau negara lain. TKW Indonesia mau belajar bahasa Cantonese dan telaten merawat orang tua dan anak-anak. Sementara TKW Filipina, karena merasa mampu berbahasa Inggris, biasanya enggan untuk mempelajari bahasa Cantonese.

Penurunan jumlah TKW Filipina di Hong Kong bisa jadi TKW Filipina memiliki kesadaran sosial dan politik yang cukup tinggi. Sehingga ketika hak-hak mereka dilanggar oleh majikan, mereka akan langsung melawan. Dan hal itu tidak disukai majikan.

Pemilihan TKW Indonesia oleh para majikan di Hong Kong sebenarnya dilandasi alasan upah TKW Indonesia lebih murah jika dibandingkan dengan TKW asal Filipina. Meski standar upah minimum di Hong Kong untuk para TKW sekitar HK$ 3.500, masih banyak TKW Indonesia mau yang menerima upah yang lebih rendah dari upah minimum.

Permainan pemberian upah di bawah standar itu merupakan praktik jamak di Hong Kong, termasuk pemotongan tujuh bulan gaji oleh agen. Cukup banyak TKW yang tidak menerima gaji satu sen pun selama tujuh bulan bekerja akibat ulah agen.

Pemerintah Indonesia dan Filipina mempunyai cara pandang berbeda dalam melihat pekerja migran. Pemerintah Filipina menganggap tenaga kerja merupakan pahlawan devisa, yang senantiasa harus dilindungi oleh negara dan diperjuangkan hak-haknya.

Bahkan, Pemerintah Filipina tidak segan-segan terlibat langsung dalam memperjuangkan hak-hak pekerja migrannya. Sedangkan Pemerintah Indonesia masih melihat kepergian TKI ke luar negeri untuk mengurangi angka pengangguran di Tanah Air.

TKW merupakan bagian dari TKI yang paling banyak mengalami penderitaan...

Victoria Park di hari Minggu

2007-03-15T22:44:00.000+01:00

Victoria Park terletak di Causeway Bay di sebelah utara Pulau Hong Kong, diapit antara Causeway Bay dan stasiun Mass Transit Railway (MTR) di Tin Hau. Victoria merupakan bagian dari distrik Eastern yang berbatasan dengan distrik Wan Chai.

Taman ini juga dilengkapi fasilitas olah raga, kolam renang, dan arena bermain untuk anak-anak. Bahkan lapangan tennis di taman ini, sering dijadikan ajang pertandingan tingkat internasional. Taman ini dengan mudah dijangkau dari berbagai sudut wilayah dengan bus, tram, dan kereta bawah tanah.

Victoria Park di hari Minggu, menyemut dipadati ribuan wanita. Sejak pukul 08.00 pagi hingga 17.00 sore, Victoria Park menyuguhkan wajah Indonesia. Dan 90% wajah Jawa yang dihiasi rambut pirang terurai. Mode pakaian yang kini, membungkus tubuh, sampai pusar pun diobral.

Ponsel keluaran model baru menjamur ditenteng. Di tempel lekat di kuping, ngobrol sembari jalan. Pulsa seakan diobral murah entah untuk berbincang apa. Gaya wanita Eropa dalam kebebasan makin lengkap. Ditambah asap rokok yang mengepul dari bibir berpoles lipstik. Mereka gayanya, mirip turis. Dan, rasa-rasanya gak salah memang. Victoria Park tempat favorit para turis wanita dialeg Jawa medok. Sedikit menyamarkan, dialek Kanton akan menjadi selingan.

Mau makan nasi, rujak atau gado-gado? Atau haus? Atau habis pulsa? Semua bisa dibeli atau dibikin secara sembunyi-sembunyi. Para wanita pekerja Indonesia benar-benar ingin memanjakan diri setelah enam hari harus memanjakan sang majikan. Makanya mereka puas-puaskan menikmati kebebasan yang cuma sehari ini.

Begitulah, Victoria Park, terutama pada hari libur Minggu, de facto adalah bagian dari Indonesia...

Afterglow

2007-03-12T23:13:00.000+01:00

I walk softly through the empty house, not wanting to break the spell I’m under. My soul melts in the gaze of your sleepy eyes, rapid breathing slowly subsides, embracing each other and holding on tight. Your touch lingers on my skin, your sweetness still wet on my lips. Words from my soul caressing your heart, our spirits dancing as one.

I want only to taste the room that just held you, breathe the fragrance you left behind. I don’t feel your departure, can’t tell you have gone. I only feel how you held me. Our union renewed, we grow to a higher level of love… sweet and tender…

Lady In Red

2007-03-11T01:38:00.000+01:00

Red signifies danger, love, high energy, anger, passion and desire. We all know how it is the colour of the heart of love, of Valentines day, of romantic red roses and the drama of the recklessness of the bullfight.

Wearing red is a bold statement. It is such a powerful color. When I do wear red, it’s an indication I’m feeling empowered and fiery. Red is the Chinese colour for happiness, rich, lucky and longlife. It’s traditional to wear red clothes especially during the New Year Lunar Festival.

I associate Red with the slow romantic dance Lady In Red.

Lady In Red
(Sung by Chris DeBurgh)

I’ve never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight

I’ve never seen you shine so bright

I’ve never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance

They’re looking for a little romance, given half a chance

I have never seen that dress you’re wearing

Or the highlights in your head that catch your eyes I have been blind

The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek

There’s nobody here, it’s just you and me
It’s where I wanna be

But I hardly know this beauty by my side

I’ll never for get, the way you look tonight

I’ve never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight

I’ve never seen you shine so bright you were amazing

I’ve never seen so many people want to be there by your side

And when you turned to me and smiled, it took my breath away

I have never had such a feeling

Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight

The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek

There’s nobody here, it’s just you and me
It’s where I wanna be

But I hardly know this beauty by my side

I’ll never for get, the way you look tonight

The way you look tonight

I never will forget, the way you look tonight

The lady in red

My lady in red

I love you…

Goodbye Mother

2007-03-06T21:46:00.000+01:00

At the end of life’s road, you will see a light. You have made your passage, through God’s tunnel so bright. Today I see a silhouette from the sky, with cloud formations to our naked eye.

Mother, I don’t know what’s ahead for you up there, but I know it’s with angels that care. Mother, you’re with Father now, in a place of peace, your days here on Earth, have now come to a cease. The journey through may be winding and step, but you now are at rest, in your final sleep. Someday, I will meet you again, when I pass through, to my life’s end.

Goodbye Mother, thank you for teaching me right and wrong, thank you for being patient, thank you for trusting me, thank you for holding my hands, thank you for letting me know that you love me dearly. Where woud I be without you?...

Setiap hari adalah hari Valentine

2007-02-12T23:20:00.000+01:00

See my previous post “Every day is a Valentine’s day”, dated 13 february 2006.

Suatu kebiasaan kita untuk selalu membuktikan cinta kita pada orang yang mengasihi dan kita kasihi di hari Valentine, seperti lewat hadiah, makan malam romantis, kata-kata cinta yang memabukkan, mawar merah 7 lusin, atau apa saja. Sebenarnya Valentine´s Day itu adalah hari biasa. Hanya sehari dalam setahun.

Bukankah sebenarnya menyedihkan menunggu satu hari dalam setahun hanya untuk menyatakan dan mendapatkan pernyataan cinta kasih? Bagaimana dengan 364 hari lainnya?

Bukankah mendapat kecupan selamat pagi disertai dengan senyum manis merupakan hadiah yang indah? Bukankah, sepiring nasi goreng yang dibuat oleh ibu, istri atau kekasih dengan penuh sayang merupakan berkat? Bukankah, pujian yang diberikan teman merupakan hal yang manis?

Kadang, hadiah Valentine yang sesungguhnya datang bukan berupa wanginya parfum yang kita dapatkan, atau romantisnya makan malam bersama kekasih, melainkan berupa hal-hal kecil yang sudah menjadi kebiasaan, yang sebenarnya bagi banyak orang lainnya merupakan hal langka yang didambakan.

Tentu saja, merayakan hari Valentine bukan suatu hal yang salah. Tapi jangan sampai kita lupa bahwa setiap hari bisa menjadi hari Valentine...

Untuk yang merayakan.. “Selamat Hari Valentine 2007”...

A Promise for a New Beginning

2007-02-11T23:41:00.000+01:00

When she spoke to him after a long time, she knew he was a changed person. She didn’t hate him for the person he had become. She hated herself for transforming a sweet caring fun person into the cold mechanical human being.

She remembered the past. The phone conversations. The few short meetings… a budding friendship. As time went by, he professed his love for her. She liked him, immensely. But was she ready for love? Both of them nursed a broken heart. Was the comfort of their friendship and the realization of love the beginning to the end of the shadows of fear, insecurity and pain that lurked in their hearts?

She didn’t want to be hurt again. Not another relationship to turn bitter over time. She didn’t trust her luck. The stars ruling her destiny have always been cruel. She sometimes felt romance was never written for her…

He was hurt. Her decision pained him. But she thought this pain would be short-lived and eventually forgotten rather than bitter and broken relationships. Maybe it was just infatuation mistaken for love. But she let him down. She wasn’t even a true friend. She moved away from him. Both in physical and emotional space. She never kept in touch.

Time passed. Almost three years. They were back again in the same city. But he had changed. He was cold and cynical. The warmth, the sweetness, the care and everything that made him special was lost. She hardly recognized this person.

His outburst made her realize how much he had loved her deeply. She had lost the one person who would have loved her truly. Only if she had chosen him, but only if…

He can’t say that she didn’t care. She did care, maybe too much. She thought the decision was the best for if at all the relationship didn’t have a future. She would be hurt, but most importantly he would be too. She never wanted to see him hurt again.

He doesn’t know that she still has the fragrance packets he gave her. He doesn’t know that she still remembers when he meet and looked extremely handsome in his black T-shirt and jeans. He doesn’t know that she still remembers how upset he was, and how they spoke for hours… many memories…

But still… the mistake was hers. But she is not going to watch her friend just waste away his life in meaningless nothings. She wanted that him back. It didn’t matter if he didn’t love her anymore. She was a callous friend. She wronged him. She doesn’t deserve his love. But it is her responsibility to help him rediscover himself. And she was determined to do it. It didn’t matter if he cursed her for interfering in his life. No amount of anger, bitterness mattered. She was not going to relent. She was not going to leave him the way he was. In the world of pretenses he has weaved for himself.

He finally said… “I shall try… it is not going to be easy and it takes time”…

She agreed and she waits for his promise of a new beginning to be fulfilled…

“Never lose Hope if the Beloved pushes you away. If He shuts the door on you, don't go. Be patient and wait! It is your patience that will draw Him back!”

Message in a Bottle

2007-02-10T00:38:00.000+01:00

I still miss you…
~~~

Some messages are too clear to miss…

Tonight I have just received such a message.

Remembering

No matter the difference in sands beneath our feet…
I whisper your name….. and you are with me in the worlds of your words left behind…

The Last Dance

2007-02-05T23:20:00.000+01:00

If I had known our last dance would be our very last dance...

Would I’ve stepped a little closer. Would I’ve stayed for one more song...

Thoughts

2007-02-02T23:45:00.000+01:00

She was numb. As if the heart has lost its warmth and glow and her insane mind rambled on.

She said… “Please don’t hurt me. Meet me and I want to see you look in my eyes and say that you love me. You won’t be able to do it because deep inside your heart, you do love me at least to a miniscule of a measure”.

Did you for a moment think of the pain I have suffered? It was not easy being far away from you. It was not easy to love someone whom one has never seen yet whom the heart loved madly.

Did you realize… to me you have become one of the reasons I exist and you were asking me to let go of my life yet find a reason to live. You never seen the tears, the pain on my face, the love I have for you and yet you chose to hurt me. It was easy to hurt me than take my hand. It was easy to let me suffer than let others.

Why? Was it because I thought about your happiness and chose to take the pains? Was it because I was not selfish? Was it because I never forced you to love for it felt that I would be insulting my love for you? Was it because I let you take your own time while I gathered the strength to wait?

He asked her… “Why am I doing this to you…?”

Well seek the answer for I cannot find a valid answer…

I cannot find a valid answer why should I stop waiting for you. Till now you haven’t given me a valid reason. And even if you do, why should I stop loving you? And why should I stop feeling in the far corner of my heart that one day you shall come, one day you shall be mine?

And why should you not love me, can you think of one reason? No, you cannot. No one can. So why shouldn’t I wait for that day to arrive?

Nobody wants to be lonely.

So why… why don’t you let me love you?…

My heart weeps in sadness and asks you every moment… “Will you be mine forever?”…

“Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who LOVE, time is eternity…”

But I can’t go back and fetch my soul, even though I know

Like our love, it’s.....

Just Around the Corner

Things aren’t quite as they seem inside my domain

You can’t know about everything

only pleasure and pain.

You wonder why I come here with head to my hands

Where else can I be cured and the king of your mansion?

A thorn in your side

and a child to protect that claims he’s free.

Just around the corner

half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

starved for some affection.

Darling

come quickly

come ease my mind

For my prayers have not been answered in a long time.

I’ve already made my bed

like it or not

As long as there’s no regrets I’ll be here

when the ride stops.

These comforts to me and these crosses to bare

with which we live.

Just around the corner

half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

starved for some affection.

Baby

I can’t drag you into this mess!

I’m the thorn in your side and the child to protect.

Just around the corner

half a mile to heaven

Strong enough to hold you

starved for some affection.

Darling

come quickly

come ease my mind

For my prayers have not been answered in a long time.

Just Around the Corner, sung by Cock Robin

Your Smile

2007-01-26T22:13:00.000+01:00

Half of heaven, half of hope, half of me.

Your smile is magical, mean so much and more.

Let me kiss it to completion…

Chasing the Horizon

2007-01-24T22:39:00.000+01:00

Standing there, watching the evening’s magic act. The sun burst into splashes of gold, crimson, and violet as she hit the horizon. Out of nowhere, she changed into her white gown, and began to ascend into a new sky. She lit a silver carpet on the ocean’s surface, one that led straight to me.

Was she calling me, asking me to follow her path, one that led to the edge of the world, that led to the edge of me? Would I find my own avatars when I got there? Would I understand the different shades, the various shapes I personified? Would I know the secret to my own magic act?

I watch my avatar swimming in the waves. I wonder what she looks like. Is she the classic mermaid of fairytales? Does she resemble me in form, in thought? Did I invent her to reach the horizon, to look over the edge of my destiny, before I get there?

The horizon is where the water meets the sky, where the moon meets the sun, where the mermaid meets you. It came to me, as I was silently falling asleep last night. It is an illusion, created by me for an answer, the answer to my existence, to my purpose…

Guardian Angel

2007-01-22T23:35:00.000+01:00

In spite of all your ignorance of my emotions…
I want to be your Guardian Angel…
Looking out for you with my every passing breath.

I will be like the sponge absorbing your pains and giving you the chance to smile. I will hold you when you stumble in pain and your footsteps pause in confusion. I would be your shadow, keep in step with you as you walk through the life. Guiding you, if you arrive at crossroads, make your choice and banish the worries.

Yet… I am human and can err... If I have hurt you, if because of my foolishness and misunderstandings you have shed a tear, please punish me but don’t let go of me.

But then… you chose to turn away from me not because you wanted to but because you felt… you had no choice. Yet I realize the pain in your heart. Maybe that is why I am still holding your fingers, still being your shadow, still walking with you, still waiting for your return. You choose to walk past me. Making me invisible in your eyes. I can silently suffer that pain because I know it hurts you too…

Let me live each moment of this blessed life… where my heart beats for you…

The Broken Step

2007-01-19T23:47:00.000+01:00

Just like in life, you will hit a broken path and you can choose to turn around, or to keep going and see whats at the end of that struggle to get above where you are....

Unlearning Love

2007-01-16T22:40:00.000+01:00

It was 4 am and still she was awake. She was starry-eyed, but not because she couldn’t sleep. She was trying hard to fight back the dew drops falling down her cheek. Everything was throbbing… body, heart and mind.

He just closed the door, and her heart smashed in it.

She didn’t know what to feel.

Disoriented, she fidgets for her phone. Stares at it, then decides to shut it off instead. She wakes up few hours, pillow drenched… with a real bad headache. She’s gonna party today she says. Being alone and unattached ain’t that bad. Yet when the music started playing, she hears one of their so many songs, and… she cries.

She couldn’t believe she still had tears left.

It was all going back to her. How he systematically turned her life around with his presence, how his voice intoxicated her. Clinging on to whats left of her hear life, she shuts those visions off. Enough... But she knew that the person she was trying to forget was the only one she needed to ease the pain.

Perhaps erything wasn’t as cosmic as she thought after all.

She wanted to look for someone to blame but she knew too well that she won’t find anyone. She crafted her own sweet suicide. And yet amidst of it all, she still craves being lost in his arms. The only choice should be to flatiron all hopes until she was numb. If only she can unlearn loving him, she would. Then later on perhaps she can unlearn how to cry, how to block the visions of their hands intertwined, how to numb her skin from reliving the feel of his touch, the warmth of his breath, the comfort of his arms.

It’s never easy - unlearning love letting go what’s hard to even hide needing and wanting. She can forget him… Of course…

Colorful Moments

2007-01-14T23:56:00.000+01:00

Images fascinate me… reminds me of precious moments of my life and the world around me that have slipped away. Those moments have become snapshots in memory, pushed into the recesses of my mind, some even lost in the cobwebs of time, work and relationships. And these images are evidence of a time gone by.

From the shades of black and white to the brilliance of the colors of digital technology, the images sang the song of my life.

The years of life with family and friends, a passage through time, from childhood to adulthood. There lies my past… a wonderful kaleidoscope of colors, emotions and changes. And these colorful moments, as the years roll by, they are special… a tear, a smile, moments of love and many more captured in a piece of film and cherished for ever.

Images... a collage of moments spaced out in time. A concoction of sentiments, twirl through the past, through the familiar landscapes of the bygone. Today will transform into another image, another yesterday, as I step into a “present day” in a tomorrow...

Loving Touch

2007-01-12T23:35:00.000+01:00

When I touch you there exists nothing else,
and I am wholly with you.
Yet when I touch you there is everything else,
as I receive the whole earth in you.
When I touch you I touch the earth,
and when I touch you I receive her in return.

In you I touch her intelligence.
I feel her strength.
I hear her waters.
I breathe her fragrance.
I taste her winds.
I see her beauty…

A Sweet Daydream

2007-01-10T21:20:00.000+01:00

A man was on the beach…

It was around midnight and everyone was asleep, or so she thought. She snook out of the house and went to the docks to silently cry by herself and ponder on some thoughts that have been lingering in her mind. Teardrops fell on her cheeks as she thought of that day she’ll leave the people she loves so dearly...

She wept some more while gazing at the rustic full moon and magnificently clear skies. An evanescent reflection showing with a blurry tear-stained eyes of mine...

Then suddenly, footsteps were amiss...

And she saw the man, walking towards the weeping, broken lady. He gazed up at the beautiful sky and she saw a tear run down his cheek. Speaking the words “don’t go” as he went closer to where she was crying. He looked deep into her bittersweet eyes...

And they were locked in love’s eternally warm embrace... never to be torn apart...

Let These be Your Desires

2007-01-09T22:01:00.000+01:00

Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself
But if you love and must needs have desires,
Let these be your desires:

To melt and be like a running brook
That sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart
And give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer
For the beloved in your heart
And a song of praise upon your lips.

~ Kahlil Gibran

The beauty of a perfect kiss

2007-01-05T23:10:00.000+01:00

Feeling the sensation of your lips as they slide over mine
Taste like honey to my soul as taking me to a different place in time

Kiss me in the tip of desire
Kiss me with limitless passion
Kiss me until the dawn arrives

Waiting

2007-01-04T22:50:00.000+01:00

The sound of your voice lingers becomes my favorite song
My desire for you pierces me
Shatters my solitude
...and I await your return

Why Do All Good Things Come To An End?

2007-01-03T23:14:00.000+01:00

Flames To Dust,

Lovers To Friends,

Why Do All Good Things Come To An End~~~

This is a nice song sung by Nelly Furtado. Well, I think this song suits me. I don’t know really why I am in love with this song. I think it’s due to the beat and the chorus, floating comes to mind. The hole song just melt in my ears. It’s so chilled and stuff and I also love the lyrics…

All Good Things
(sung by Nelly Furtado)

Honestly what will become of me

don’t like reality

It’s way too clear to me

But really life is daily

We are what we don’t see

Missed everything daydreaming

Flames to dust

Lovers to friends

Why do all good things come to an end

Flames to dust

Lovers to friends

Why do all good things come to an end

Traveling I only stop at exits

Wondering if I’ll stay

Young and restless

Living this way I stress less

I want to pull away when the dream dies

The pain sets in and I don’t cry

I only feel gravity and I wonder why

Flames to dust

Lovers to friends

Why do all good things come to an end

Flames to dust

Lovers to friends

Why do all good things come to an end

come to an end, come to an

Why do all good things come to an end?

come to an end, come to an

Why do all good things come to an end?

Well the dogs were whistling a new tune

Barking at the new moon

Hoping it would come soon so that they could

Dogs were whistling a new tune

Barking at the new moon

Hoping it would come soon so that they could

Die die die die…

Flames to dust

Lovers to friends

Why do all good things come to an end

Flames to dust

Lovers to friends

Why do all good things come to an end

come to an end, come to an

Why do all good things come to an end?

come to an end, come to an

Why do all good things come to an end?

Well the dogs were barking at a new moon

Whistling a new tune

Hoping it would come soon

And the dogs were barking at the new moon

Whistling a new tune

Hoping it would come soon so that they could die...

Goodbye 2006, Welcome 2007

2006-12-31T00:26:00.000+01:00

To all my bloggers/non-bloggers friends have a fantastic New Years eve and lets goodbye 2006 and welcome 2007!!!…

Ain’t it funny, how time slips away

2006-12-28T23:50:00.000+01:00

“Gee, ain’t it funny, how time slips away…”

It’s almost time to say goodbye to 2006. Like it or not, no one can stop time. No one can even slow it down. Time keeps turning in on itself so that our yesterdays blend into our tomorrows as today hurries past. End of a year, and the start of something new.

I hope everyone can learn the past and make 2007 a year to remember...

Happiness and Good Tidings

2006-12-22T21:02:00.000+01:00

Whatever plans you have, as usual by this period of the year, I want to wish everyone lots of good things, times and memories with your relatives and friends... so Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!...

If you don’t celebrate Christmas then I wish you a happy time of year.
May Peace, Hope and Love be with you Today, Tomorrow and Always!!…

Mirror Mirror on the Wall...

2006-12-21T23:27:00.000+01:00

Mirror, mirror on the wall,
Why do I look in you, at all,
For all I see is the same old me,
And not how I so want to be...

Have you ever wondered about mirrors? We look at it everyday to appreciate our features or to adjust one’s assumed imperfections. But I wondered... What does the mirror whisper to us all?...

2006-12-19T22:33:00.000+01:00

Why can’t you just hold me

Just Hold Me
(Sung by Maria Mena)

Comfortable as I am
Need your reassurance
And comfortable as you are
You count the days
But if I wanted silence
I would whisper
And if I wanted loneliness
I’d choose to go
And if I like rejection
I’d audition
And if I didn’t love you
You would know

And why can’t you just hold me
And how come it is so hard
And do you like to see me broken
And why do I still care
still care

You say you see the light now
At the end of this narrow hall
I wish it didn’t matter
I wish I didn’t give you all
But if I wanted silence
I would whisper
And if I wanted loneliness
I’d choose to go
And if I like rejection
I’d audition
And if I didn’t love you
You would know

And why can’t you just hold me
And how come it is so hard
And do you like to see me broken
And why do I still care

Poor little misunderstood baby
No one likes a sad face
But I can’t remember life without him
I think I did have good days
I think I did have good days

And why can’t you just hold me
And how come it is so hard
And do you like to see me broken
And why do I still care.....

You care, because you are a caring person. You grief, because you love someone. You are not broken, but just bending in the storm. Love is all around you, you just have to focus on what your heart is telling you.

But when there is storm inside of you, and everything goes round and round. It’s not easy to focus. You just go with the flow, and wondering why some things just seem to happen. Let it go, and when it comes back to you then the answer will be as clear as you cannot imagine right now…

The same Path of Life

2006-12-15T23:39:00.000+01:00

There are no promises.
She only thinks... “You are here, I am here... and we journey along the same path of life, together and with each step we take... the bond between us shall hopefully strengthen. If we come to crossroads, and part... I would not have any complaints for those moments together shall be long cherished...”

Untold Emotions

2006-12-13T23:02:00.000+01:00

In the silence across the distances my heart still whispers. Listen to the breeze it speaks my love. When I am alone, I look into the spaces between my fingers and imagine your fingers in between mine, entwined together in love.

The air around me is still and unmoving. I must have been standing still, my face drawn and eyes unfocused. The babble of voices were lost in my ears. The faces that stared at my solitary figure passed blurred in front of me. The turbulent heart heard nothing and saw nothing.

The sadness of the distance between us and the loneliness engulfing me. The fear of losing you, the pain of rejection, the happiness of speaking to you even if we end up talking about nothing in particular for those precious five minutes.

I ask myself…
Would you care more if I was slim and not plump?
Would you care less if I wore my hair short?
Would you love me for the smile I bring to your face?
Would you love me dear for who I am and not how I look?
Would you even love me, not for a year, not for few months, not even a whole day but just for a moment?

All these emotions and many more, I am sorry, words fall short to describe how much I care about you but my affection and my sentiments are beyond those three words… “I LOVE YOU”…

A Romantic Moment

2006-12-12T23:04:00.000+01:00

A Look… A Hug… A Touch… A Moment…

Destiny

2006-12-08T23:33:00.000+01:00

If two hearts are meant to be...
No matter how long it takes, how far it will go and how tough it seems
Fate will bring them together to share a life that is meant to be forever

Sweeter than Sweet

2006-12-07T23:08:00.000+01:00

Your hands find their way to my face, to caress and kiss me, as we smile at each other and sigh, knowing it will never be any sweeter than this moment…

Flying high in the Sky of Love

2006-12-05T01:00:00.000+01:00

Songs have an impact on our lives. They remind us of special times that we shared. They express how we feel about something, without actually having to say it in black and white. They can depress us or they can uplift us. Songs have the power to unleash and provoke our perceptions and emotions…

A few days ago I’ve been listening to a song, I’d always feel a bit melancholy. The song is “High” by Lighthouse Family. It’s a pretty upbeat, “endless love” type of song. Strange an upbeat song would make me melancholy. Then I realized, the song was kind of familiar. But where? I couldn’t figure it out. Then I remembered why.

It was the a song, that was played at the last day of my holiday. So it was a very farewell with my friends in a good way. Emotionally intense, and there’s a feeling of sadness in the air for everyone, and the holiday is over.

The radio played the song “High” and for some reason the song click with me. It some how summed up the euphoric and sentimental feeling. And was a great song to end with my friends. When we left, I tried to remember what the song was. It drove me nuts. I kept trying to remember the verses and chorus so I could download it when I got home.

I guess the melancholy comes from being sentimental about the past. The good times on the holiday, etc. It’s just interesting that after all this time, a song subconsciously brings up melancholy feelings…

HIGH
(sung by Lighthouse Family)

When you’re close to tears remember

Some day it’ll all be over

One day we’re gonna get so high

And though it’s darker than December

What’s ahead is a different colour

One day ‘we’re gonna get so high

And at

The end of the day remember the days

When we were close to the edge

And we’ll wonder how we made it through the night

The end of the day remember the way

We stayed so close till the end

We’ll remember it was me and you

’Cause we are gonna be forever you and me

You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love

Don’t you think it’s time you started

Doing what we always wanted

One day we’re gonna get so high

’Cause even the impossible is easy when we got each other

One day ‘we’re gonna get so high

And at

The end of the day

remember the days

when we were close to the edge

And we’ll wonder how we made it through the night

The end of the day

remember the way

We stayed so close to till the end

We’ll remember it was me and you

’Cause we are gonna be forever you and me

You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love

’Cause we are gonna be forever you and me

You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love

High, high, high, high, high, high, high, high

And at

remember the days

when we were close to the edge

And we’ll wonder how we made it through the night

The end of the day

remember the way

We stayed so close to till the end

We’ll remember it was me and you

’Cause we are gonna be forever you and me

You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love (x3)

When I close my eyes

2006-12-04T05:34:00.000+01:00

When I close my eyes, I see that I sleep in gentle arms that hold me securely in a sparkling sky. I’m like a moon that pirouettes in a silent dance that moves the tides. I’m this wonder and so are you, though we are at present in a dream that says we are not…

The last day of November

2006-11-30T23:12:00.000+01:00

Today is the last day in November. A month being grateful where I shared with you my emotions and feelings. A month that shows how we’re getting above normal temperatures for this time of year!
A Sweet November month has past.

Tomorrow is already December 1st! It is cold outside and it will get colder tonight.The winter and Christmas Holiday is coming soon…… each and everytime I hear George Michael sing “Last Christmas, I gave you my heart. But the very next day, you gave it away”….

The Lake House

2006-11-28T23:52:00.000+01:00

How do you hold on to someone you’ve never met?
It’s really a hard question, specially when the time is not under your control, any other troubles could be beaten, but time has been always the unbeaten, uncontrolled factor in our lives.

It is a winter morning in 2006.

On her way to the city, Dr. Kate Forster (Sandra Bullock) leaves a note in the mailbox for house’s next tenant, asking him to forward her mail and noting that the inexplicable painted paw prints he might notice by the front door were there when she moved in.

But when the next tenant arrives, he sees a much different picture. Alex Wyler (Keanu Reeves), a talented but frustrated architect working at a nearby construction site, finds the lake house badly neglected: dusty, dirty and overgrown with weeds. And no sign of paw prints anywhere.

The house has special meaning for Alex. In a happier time it was built by his estranged father (Christopher Plummer), a renowned architect who allowed his professional acclaim to grow at the expense of his family life. Alex feels a sense of peace here now and commits to restoring the property to its original beauty. He disregards Kate’s note until, days later, while painting the weather-beaten jetty he sees a stray dog run across the fresh paint and then towards the entrance of the house, leaving paw prints exactly where she said they’d be.

Baffled, Alex writes back, saying that the house had no occupant before him and wondering how she could have known about the dog; while Kate, who just left it a week ago, imagines he is playing some kind of joke on her and fires back a reply.

Just for argument’s sake, what day is it there?
April 14th, 2004.
No, she says. It’s April 14th, 2006.
It’s the same day, two years apart.
Can this be happening?

As Kate and Alex continue to correspond through the lake house’s mailbox they confirm that they are, incredibly, impossibly, living two years apart, and each at a time in their lives when they are struggling with past disappointments and trying to make a new start. Sharing this unusual bond, they reveal more of themselves to one another with each passing week - their secrets, their doubts and dreams, until they find themselves falling in love.

Be a part of me

2006-11-27T22:04:00.000+01:00

There is a place in me where your fingerprints still rest, your kisses still linger, and your whispers softly echo. It is the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me…

Brave

2006-11-23T23:19:00.000+01:00

Brave is on of the key points to succeed and do well in every task that we do. If one is not brave enough to decide what one’s want to do, one will never be improved, one step futher than one used to be. Some people are too scared to do anything, so they will just be in the same position for the rest of their life. As long as we have done nothing wrong, why must we scare? We must be braved in everything that we do as long as the act is correct, right, and not against the law.

A person who is not dare to do anything usually he or she will think about all the sides effects before doing anything such as “what will the public think of me if I do such things?” or “what if I fail?” or “how ashamed am I going to be?”. As a result of it, they will just play safe as they do not need to discover or experience any risks and criticism from everyone else.

On one hand, making mistake is also one of the process to success…

If I just lay here

If I just lay here, would you lie with me, and just forget the world?…

Sweet November

2006-11-22T00:00:00.000+01:00

It is not because the movie “Sweet November” by Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron. But somehow I can’t remember how people used to describe November as “Sweet November”.

Before I could even realize how fast time really passes, the month of October has gone. Gone within a snap. We can’t fight what is in our nature. Our biological clock is ticking. Beside, we’re not getting any younger. Time surely flies fast. Time is really cruel.

May we all have a Sweet November!…

When the rain comes

Me and Mrs. Jones

2006-11-16T23:40:00.000+01:00

“Me and Mrs. Jones” played in my head in an almost hymnal way, bittersweet and lyrical, the impossible love song impossibly and defiantly true.

The man knows it’s wrong that he and Mrs. Jones meet each day at six thirty at their favorite cafe, holding hands, making up plans, playing their favorite song over and over and over again.

Knows it must come to an end some day too soon, that each of them will trudge back to their own separate lives of unmentioned husbands an wives, living out the rest of their lives in the blues-festered wounds they have created.

But right then, in the hallows of the song, the only thing that matters is that they are together for three minutes of a song, more together maybe than they’ll ever be again. That’s the magic of their sin, in choosing to go left when all the world and heaven too commands them not to give in, to do the right thing instead.

Me And Mrs. Jones
(Sung: by Billy Paul)

Me and Mrs. Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it’s wrong, but it’s much too strong
To let it grow now

We meet every day at the same cafe, six-thirty
I know, I know she’ll be there
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the jukebox plays our favorite song

Me and Mrs.
Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing going on
We both know that it’s wrong, but it’s much too strong
To let it grow now

We gotta be extra careful
That we don’t build our hopes up too high
‘Cause she’s got her own obligations
And so, and so, do I

Me and Mrs.
Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We’ve got a thing going on
We both know that it’s wrong, but it’s much too strong
To let it grow now

Well it’s time for us to be leaving
It hurts so much, it hurts so much inside
Now she’ll go her way and I’ll go mine
Tomorrow we’ll meet the same place, the same time

Me and Mrs.
Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
Got a thing going on

We gotta be extra careful
We can’t afford to build, our hopes up too high
I wanna meet and talk with you
At the same place, the same cafe, the same time
And we’re gonna hold hands like we used to
We're gonna talk it over, talk it over
We know, they know, and you know and I know that it was wrong
But I think it’s strong
We gotta let ‘em know now
That we gotta thing goin’ on, a thing goin’ on...

Lips Of An Angel

2006-11-15T22:49:00.000+01:00

It’s really good to hear your voice saying my name.
It sounds so sweet, coming from the lips of an angel.

Some days I wish she would walk back into my life because memories, well, memories of her voice never seem to fade. It’s having that person seemingly re-enter your life, and you find that there are still feelings there, even though you’ve so called moved on…

The Dance Event creates incredible momentum. Imagine yourself, dancing along with others all over the planet, seeing each other through internet and satellite connections. All dressed in white. Dancing the same Drill. By being so many, you can demand the right to health and education and together fight HIV and AIDS.

By World AIDS Day 2012, at least one million people dancing all over the world, connected by satellite, making a powerful statement of hope. For the dancing youngsters this is the climax of their Schools Projects. A million involved young people dancing will make such a positive statement that we will attract media, politicians and the general public all over the world.

Whenever others see you dance, they too will become aware that there is no time for hesitation. 40.3 million people are living with HIV. A lot can be done by good education and by combating taboos. Young people are the group most at risk: every day, over 6,000 people between 15-24 years old are infected. They want the young to become leaders, instead of targets.

Start dancing, Stop AIDS, Dance4Life

You only take heat when you need to
You only take heat when you need to
And you need to

Come let me brief you
And let you see where greed leads to
And you need to

Inspire the love inside your people
Our people, equal
Food is for all, no steeples and no spires
No more hellfires and please no more gunfire

Dance 4 Life (4x)

Quench we meable them thirst
Put them first
And when the floodgates burst
Come inside and we’ll keep you strong

We protect the children of this new dawn
We’re properly skilled and we fear no storm
And what we’re building will persevere long
After the wicked them disappear

Justice, dues and rights gone clear
Me and the youth we have will start this here
Me and the youth we have will start this year

You're my Moonshine

2006-11-08T23:50:00.000+01:00

When the night is coming, the moon up opposite the sea. The beautiful night will arriving. The beach in the moonlight was very different from the beach by day. There was no darkness in the world, but only warm, mysterious shadows. The night was warmer than any night had ever been, the heavens by some miracle at once vaster and nearer, and spite of the great ivory-tinted moon that ruled the world, the sky was full of stars.

We watching the moon rise above the sea tonight. It was spectacular. Almost full. Words. Not the real moon. We here sitting where that waves gleefully run around us. Water cooling down and lapping at our feet. Looking once more at the pale yellow moon. Romantic. Enchanting.

The Moon was beautiful, and it was. As beautiful as it is now. I know why I was happy. I was inlove. Someone made me special and somehow, I think I made someone special too. No clues prior. My heart again made decisions that my mind wasn’t even told.

As with all love though it finds a way. The moon the sea may be far away, but the night wasn’t. And the start stil shine brightly, as if encouraging us to make love grow. Make Love possible, Make Love happen. It did happen in time after a million shared moments between us. Sorted out all too late. Moment gone. Magic gone. Moon watching is for lovers…

I must remember to ask if sea calls “my dream” the way it does to me. And so my hope floats.... will it ever come to pass... us together hand in hand.. laughing, smiling, loving with the sea waves at our feet playing and the moon giving us light... And I said to myself.. remind me to ask you when I come back...

Dedicated to a girl friend that has a special place in my heart, which has sent the following beautiful words today to me…

“aku liat bulan udah purnama, aku gak bakal lupa bulan purnama....dipinggir pantai..kamu lah bulan purnama aku…”
