To no one in particular,   My life actually got better when I stopped attending the group EBs.   When your entire social life revolves around a singular group, it has a way making you block out everyt

i dont know how to start over if the people that are most important to me are becoming my enemies...im not really sure anymore if they really know who or what i am now since they've only noticed me now...they havent seen the worst and yet they make me feel worst....if they truly love why can't they see that they are strangling my insides and torturing my mind? where is the happiness? do i deserve to be happy? i feel i'm the worst or baddest person on earth........stripped of my basic rights...stripped of thinking and feeling what is mine...

Trust

 

Lost in a dream

Nothing is what it seems

Searching my head

For the words that you said

 

Tears filled my eyes

As we said our last goodbyes

This sad scene replays

Of you walking away

 

My body aches from mistakes

Betrayed by lust

We lied to each other so much

That in nothing we trust

 

Time and again,

She repeats let's be friends

I smile and say yes

Another truth bends,

I must confess

 

I try to let go, but I know

We'll never end 'til we're dust

We lied to each other again

But I wish I could trust

 

My body aches from mistakes

Betrayed by lust

We lied to each other so much

That in nothing we trust

 

God help me please, on my knees

Betrayed by lust

We lied to each other so much

That in nothing we trust

 

How could this be happening to me

I'm lying when I say "Trust me"

I can't believe this is true

Trust hurts

Why does trust equal suffering

 

Absolutely nothing we trust

Burnt Bridge

 

Grey skies turn red.

Choking on the bitterness it brings.

The summer winds blow right through me.

So when you shoot, aim straight for the heart.

I hold my chest as tomorrow bleeds away.

Such beautiful words you fed me.

I see now that I was choking on each line.

So turn your back on me.

Forget.

Seasons change just as the swollen tears burst and run down your cheeks.

You have so carefully burnt these bridges.

Where do you run to now?

I hold my chest as tomorrow bleeds away.

this was sent to me by a friend, of which i'd like to share to those who care to read...

 

I Wish You “Enough”

 

At an airport, I overheard a father and his daughter in their last moments together. They had announced her plane’s departure and standing near the door she said. “Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough too. Daddy.”

They kissed good-bye and she left. He walked over towards the window where I was seated. Standing there I could see he wanted and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude on his privacy, but he welcomed me in by asking, “Did you ever say good-bye to someone knowing it would be forever?”

“Yes, I have,” I replied. Saying that brought back memories I had of expressing my love and appreciation for all my Dad had done for me. Recognizing that his days were limited, I took the time to tell him face to face how much he meant to me. So I knew what this man was experiencing.

“Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever good-bye?”

“I am old and she lives much too far away. I have challenges ahead and the reality is, her next trip back will be for my funeral,” he said.

“When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, “I wish you enough, may I ask what that means?”

He began to smile. “That’s a wish that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone.”

He paused for a moment and looking up as if trying to remember it in detail, he smiled even more. “When we said, “I wish you enough,” we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with enough good things to sustain them.”

He continued and then, turning towards me, he shared the following as if he were reciting it from memory:

I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish you enough “Hellos” to get you through the final “Good-bye”

He then began to sob and walked away.

My friends and loved ones, I wish you enough.

They say, “It takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but an entire lifetime to forget them.”

Send these phrases to the people you’ll never forget and also remember to send it to the person who sent it to you. It’s a short message to let them know that you’ll never forget them.

If you don’t send it to anyone, it means that you’re in a hurry and you need to slow down to enjoy what is around you, the people around you.

 

I wish you enough…

my only solace now is work and music.........being numb has its "perks" but its getting to be a heavy load in the mind.........setting a different pace.........the conscience i have is questioning my every thought and action.........my sense of right and wrong is fading...most of me just wants to be numb and just wants to cry inside and remain there for who knows until when.........

this morning i had hot chocolate and miseries. 'twas way past nine and i was still in bed.

 

i couldn't stand being at home alone on a workday. so i got up and hit the shower. i put on some clothes combination i wouldn't have worn if it were any ordinary day and i, in an ordinary mood.

 

and then...

 

you see, i want it crystal. must only be either: black or white. night or day. ying or yang. rain or shine. now or never.

 

i guess, i already made that clear saturday night.

Call me arrogant, but it feels great to be one of the best! I don't care what anyone thinks. I don't care if I come off as a snob. I am one of the best, I have the right to be arrogant! What the f**k came into your mind when you told me I'm the type who'd take the easy way out?! You don't know me. You'd be surprised as to how strong I am, how smart I am, what I can do, and what I can be. You don't know who I am and what kind of family I come from. I was raised to be one of the best, if not the best. So shut the f**k up and get out of my way!

This has no literary value whatsoever. Just things I should have said.

 

Hello. It's been what? Two months that we have not spoken. Quite long considering that we are classmates. Sorry to bother but there are just some questions that I would like to ask. First is why?

I know that you know that I have been quite taken by you for quite long. A year to be exact. In that span of time I've tried every trick I know to court you, to woo you, to make you say yes. I gave you gifts, treated you to fancy restaurants, taken you to a lot of romantic places. Yet considering the amount of time that we have spent, you fall for somebody you have just met. Why?

Second, I know that you are not numb to what I felt during those times but why did you treated me like s**t? Am I that worthless to you? All my friends told me to let you go yet I hold on believing that you will realize one day. Unfortunately youd didn't. You haven't.

So in return I want to tell three words to you. Don't be taken aback.

 

P******* Mo GA**!

 

mamatay ka na.

What can I say? I was very surprised when you gave me a call early this morning. Should be pissed off because you woke me up, but you never cease to surprise me. It was nice hearing from you again. It's been a while.

 

Why the hell do you always pop out of nowhere?! Why?! Do you seriously expect me to wait around for you? For things to be the way they were before? I'm happy now. In case you haven't noticed yet, I've decided to go on with my life without you in it.

 

I'm sorry. I don't love you anymore. Not that way. I can only be a friend, nothing more. You had your chance. You had so many chances, you blew all of them. I am not going to look back. Why don't you look forward instead and be happy for me?

you know what! i miss you, even though its been awhile...

 

those kakulitan of yours,

 

those giggly laughter,

 

the arguments for the sake of arguing,

 

that bedimpled smile, which somehow bribes me,

 

the heart to heart talks.

 

well, you know me, not much for the moon and the stars kinda stuff...

 

missin you much, thats for sure!
