Dream

I dream of you.

In the snow ---

In the early morning rays

Passing through the white clouds of fog ---

We were walking side by side.

No sound, no one else,

In the silence;

We passed by

like a wandering travellers, ---

The morning dew is dangling on the tips of the wild grass.

The purple flowers of "Touch-me-not" are blooming,

smiling, and greeting the morning sun

After drinking the morning dew to it's fill.

They are young, they are energetic, they are confident.

To start a new fresh day.

I dream of you.

In the snow,

Side by side,

We were walking;

In a complete silence.

October

October has a lot of meanings in my life. It is a special month with a full moon which is fuller than any other full moon of the year. October hosts religious celebrations and the time that I used to look forward to --- for festivities, for a short school break, for the clear dark sky with the twinkling stars (since the rain clouds are long gone by this time of the year), for the bright lighted lanterns and all the simple things that can bring happiness to life. Now, it is the birth month of my someone special, as well as one of my special friends'. It used to be the mark of the month when I have to start preparing for the final exams. It is also the month which I end up visiting, giving respect and seeing lots of relatives, teachers, elders, and friends. October is the most beautiful month in my heart.

Love Hurts

When it concerns love;

It hurts.
It gotta hurt.
No other way.
The pain that we cling onto;
The joy that can contrast the pain to the other extreme;
It's not a mystery,
but a mystery ---
how we love and hate this coexistence.
For us,
For all,
even when the love hurts,
We just love the hurting love.

We Miss Her

Unable to describe

How much we miss her.

In this downward spiraling country.

Why do I love thee?

Mrs. Smith: Do I love you?

Mr. Smith: Yes, you do.

Mrs. Smith: Why?

Mr. Smith: You told me that you love me because I am simple, but now, you love me just because I am hot!

Haaaa--- Men!!!!

Dark Chocolate

There are times that life is bitter sweet just like a dark chocolate. On certain weekends, I was walking around the quiet beach, looking for the sea shells. I was strolling around the theme park, taking snap shots of the interesting scenes. I was standing on the sand carried away by the foamy waves slipping through my feet. I was looking all the way to the horizon, if I can see --- the land that I was born, the land that I had grown up, the land that is still suffering. I was sitting by a great mast ship, thinking about the thrill of the pirates. I was standing in line for a nice sourdough bread and a hot soup. I was thinking about the land that I love where people are paying about 70 cents for a bottle of left over boiled plain rice soup. I was meeting the friends unexpectedly and having conversations peacefully. I was walking leisurely and watching paintings, beading, photographs, and all different expressions of art. Without the freedom of expression, where would the art be lying? I wonder a lot lately. I question occasionally. I recollect my memories eventually. I was there, under the sky, the same sort of sky, but with plenty of fresh breeze and inner peace.

Joy of Solitude

"From the vault of light at the going down of the sun,

the voices of the birds mingle with the voice of the torrent.

The path beneath the steam winds into the distance;

Joy of solitude, will you ever come to an end?"

"The Magnolia Enclosue," Pei Di (b. 716)

After Love

Love has gone and what is left is love. Time has slipped away quietly, --- but the pain is sometimes whispering in a dear heart. The more we were beaten to surrender, the more our spirits could rise up. So--- what? Assault was right there plainly in the sight, but we all moved on to live with what is so called 'normal life'. In the deepest of the nights, there still are flashes of the days when without knowing tears have fallen down, there still are flashes of the time when without thinking broken down into a crushed soul, there still are flashes of the memories which are wanted to be forgiven at least if cannot be forgotten. When a certain bridges are burnt, when the strings are coldly cut, when the one you love the most has turn you down, --- there is no way out, nothing left to turn around, no sound exist anymore. It is not a poem of rampaging revenge, rather just a broken heart that cannot be healed.

After Love
by FT Island

Lyrics:
Translation
I thought you were my love
I thought you were my everything
I believed that you would be my last love
I laughed only for youI lived only for you
I believed in your love and that it was happiness
It’s all lies. All lies
Your love for me was all lies
You’ve hurt me so
You left me crying
You said you’ll love only me, protect only me
Your love was all lies
You took away my heart and my love
and leaving me was love
Being loved by one person
Giving love to one person
I foolishly believed that person would be you
It’s all lies. All lies
Your love for me was all lies
You’ve hurt me so
You left me crying
You said you’ll love only me, protect only me
Your love was all lies
You took away my heart and my love
and leaving me was love
(Rap)
To say it was love was a lie
Saying that you loved me was a lie
Saying it was eternal was a lie
Left me Only with the words that she’ll come back
Where did she go (We’re falling further apart)
Where did she go We’re falling further & further apart
I’ll love only you
Just in case you came back, back to me
I can’t love again
Even though you hurt me, and saddened me
I’m waiting only for youIt’s all lies, All lies
Our separation was all a lie
Because you are my love, my all
I’m waiting only for you

The Sad Days

People say different things about you.

How you are doing ---

Who give you a visit ---

When did you stop on regular meals.

Why would those who take you as a threat;

would want to see you healthy and strong?

Why would you eat very little while you know

that what you need is strength?

What has causes someone who has eaten the meal

prepared for you to be in hospital?

Nobody want to dip their hands in the mud

to pick the lotus?

I do not know. I am not smart enough to understand all these.

Because ---

I am just an average Joe.

I do not know.

Karma

The time will come

for those who has done;

as their own cause.

No escape,

No way out,

period.

It's their karma.

Karma will follow,

till the end.

I wish the best

for the last drops of burning oil.

Take all you can.

Burn as bright as you wish,

'cause when the oil is all burnt,

the darkness will come.

Our Star

Not even one in 10,000.

The rare jewel,

trapped inside the darkness,

Holding onto it's own light.

Still shinning

with her own dignity;

Striking for the freedom

and ---

for those whom she loves

for those who loves her.

I Miss You

I miss you

The way you were;

Just that.

Nothing more,

Nothing less.

I miss you
Along by my side;
Laughing---
and smiling,
Sometimes crying.

I miss you
Fighting for love;
Burning eyes,
Jealousy
with pride.

I miss you
Holding my hand;
Content
with love,
Pure and innocent.

I miss you
The way you were;
Just that.
Nothing more,
Nothing less.

Letting Go

---and so, I am free again. Free as a bird soaring in the sky, forgetting the pain, letting go of the ties that has attached me. Freedom is as good as a taste of a red wine, a
dark chocolate, or even better ---. As light as a feather, my soul is striving towards the heaven. Smile across my mind is not the cause of the joy, just from the feeling of escape. I have let myself go. Free from the strings --- another step -- yet to face the challenge of freedom. I am sure there will be more to come. Troubles can only make us stronger. I have grown out of myself, --- again--- and I have reinvented myself again, to face a new world, a new page, a new order of life, turning into a new leaf, to conquer a new destiny.

Coincidence

It was so hot today. A friend of mine email me about heat wave --- but I didn't remember when will it be. It sure was hot today. I was driving by and the radio station that I had on on my car played this song. Coincidence --- somehwhat in a way --- my heart leapt out to the one who has been far away from me for quite some time. So, this is a song for you.

Lyrics:

You Are Not Alone

by Michael Jackson

Another day has gone

I'm still all alone

How could this be

You're not here with me

You never said goodbye

Someone tell me why

Did you have to go

And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself

How did love slip away

Something whispers in my ear and says

That you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

But you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

But you are not alone

'Lone, 'lone

Why, 'lone

Just the other night

I thought I heard you cry

Asking me to come

And hold you in my arms

I can hear your prayers

Your burdens I will bear

But first I need your hand

Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself

How did love slip away

Something whispers in my ear and says

That you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

For you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'

And girl you know that I'll be there

I'll be there

You are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

For you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

For you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

For you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

For you are not alone...

iSupport

we love her
we admire her
we support her
for her courage
for her great heart and
for her good causes.

Shameless

He went back home

shamelessly

but with lots of smiles

but without any conscious mind of reputation.

Nigeria blood is still staining on his hand,

and yet he has gut to wipe off

the blood of the monks

on the devastated streets of Burma.

He who dare to live just for one moment.

A short life span --- with lots of money,

power and corruption

Without any honor or a fair diplomacy.

Zero to Hero

I have witnessed so many heroes from zeros and those who have become zero from the hero status. "Shame on you!" the latter one, and "Way to go!" the former one.

"A true hero isn't measured by the size of his strength ... but by the strength of his heart."

Where is Love?

So distracted most of the time --- these days, cold and cloudy in the morning and a nice bright sunshine in the afternoon or right before noon time. There are times that makes me feel political corruption and drug dealing and arm dealing is everywhere among average people. Also there are times that makes me feel Americans are addicted to the black gold as much like drugs. Since after Al Gore has won the Nobel price,--- since after the global warming awareness has become a hip hop style, --- gas price has sky rocketed for all different given reasons that one can think of. As always, middle class has to pay for everything, which even makes me feel like the riches are legally robbing the middle class. One CEO needs to work only 3 hours to earn the average yearly pay of a minimum wage worker. That is extraordinary, at least, to me. And in UN, corruption is boundless. Ban Ki-moon is a rabbit who has got a runny nose and Gambari is such a failure that I have virtually no respect for him. One who has no conscious trying to get rich from the poor critters are the worst of all kind.

A Harsh Eastern Wind

The mass of the air move from the higher pressure to lower pressure, the event of which causes the wind. The bigger the pressure gradient, the stronger the wind is. I live in the west where the pressure of which is far different from that of the east. So that, I have to keep reminding myself that the wind blows due to the pressure gradient, nothing personal. Life has ups and downs, the earth has kept spinning around, and when there will be the time of the season during which the eastern pressure will be eventually low, I hope that those from the up stream of the wind be prepared to stand against the wind, which will be nothing personal.

“Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event.
You don't fail overnight.
Instead, failure is
a few errors in judgement, repeated every day.”
