Simple

Simple pleasures
Simply pleasured
Warm breath
Warm arms
Warm words
Warm heart
For me to simply melt
from, in, at, because
Inhale, exhale
Heartbeat heartbeat heartbeat
Tick tock tick tock
Night and then day
Then we do it all again.

Stay with my Heart

I can't say I especially like this song. But the words... It feels like I've known them long before I read it. 

Sophie Zelmani - Stay with my Heart


Fell in love with my lover
In the morning
Or maybe I fell
Long before you
Now I wonder
What lovers are missing
And how the name seems to
Mean passing through

It's a sad but maybe
A self-caused trouble
Perhaps i've been sad
Longer than you
I might have been
Fooling my lover
You have always been
So much more to me

I ain't got the heart babe
I ain't got the heart
Go with the morning
I'll stay with my heart

You know I was sent
For that morning
Or maybe it was the night
That threw me out

I ain't got the heart babe
I ain't got the heart
Go with the morning
I'll stay with my heart

Sleep come find me. Please.

On. Off. On.

On. Off. On. Off. On. Off.
Flickering lights giving
shadows but a moment of life.
On. Off. On. Off. On. Off.
Teasing, a fleeting glimpse
then the darkness once again.
On. Off. On. Off. On. Off.
Strike a match in my heart
Let the fire burn and give it light.

I didn't mean to post that

I just realised that I actually posted the last entry. It was written in the dead of night when I suddenly awoke and went into a ranting rage over people who complain about not finding love and look for love in all the wrong ways and with unrealistic expectations.

I don't know why I woke up feeling like that and decided to write all that in my groggy state, but well, I've done weirder things.

 If it reads weird (not that my other stuff doesnt), know that I wrote half-asleep and probably struggling to be coherent while my body fights to stay awake.

Love Thoughts

I know a grand number of people who, misguided by fantasies, have grand imaginings of what sharing a life with another means. Maybe for most, you'd smile indulgently and chalk it down to their age...if they are still young, that is. But what if the person is, for the most part, an adult? Not so cute is their naivete now, huh?


If you're only ever going to dream of grand adventures and holding hands 24/7 with abundant kisses, I will say, it could happen, but don't pull a long face when it isn't. Love isn't always candyfloss and sunshine, you gotta learn how to deal with the diabetes and sunburn every now and then.

No, I'm not saying love sours with age, rather, the other round. The better you get to know one another, the more those odd habits and annoying traits start to show through the flaws of hi or her character. But if you are together that long, chances are you already love them because of their flaws not in spite of it. You'll find out by then things aren't as rosey as you thought it would be. But the obstacles put ahead of you is what makes you a better team.

If you're gonna sulk if you don't get your way, or cry if it's not about kisses and candyhearts all the time, then perhaps you  need sometime to grow up  and understand the real mechanism of life.
