Things simply fall

into place.

Moments are immortalized in memories.

Beneath the Hazy Cloud

Alone,

in the dark, I stand.

Above me,

thick, hazy clouds

hover the night sky,

seeming impenetrable.

Beyond what my eyes can see,

beneath the violet fog,

mesmerizing diamonds

sparkle with glee.

I stand still,

waiting, waiting and waiting;

oblivious of the horrors around me.

My ears,

deaf,

and my skin,

unable to feel,

as I kept my eyes fixed

on the violet cloud.

I do not notice

the time ticking.

For eternity, I could stay,

according to my inkling.

My body grows tired,

as my faithful heart

fervently waits

for the stars

to shine down on me

again.

I'm back

i'm going to be honest --- the writer side of me is broken. i don't know exactly why, but words just don't flow as easily as it used to. much to my soul's objection, it came to a point wherein i actually felt it was useless to write. it's a struggle, yet i'm not giving up. i won't give up.

i don't claim to be particularly excellent in writing. i write because i want to touch lives, in some way. only a few days ago, my good friend reminded me of this, when i wrote a little something for him. i may not be perfect in grammar, form and whatnot, but i believe my soul's got enough passion for this endeavor, despite this battle inside me. to make someone smile or to make someone feel s/he is not alone in his/her experience in life through my works is enough reason for me to keep writing.

while i'm "recuperating" as a writer, i'll be posting some of my old works from time to time. i've been posting at different blogs; it's time to compile them all in one blog.

happy reading.

P.S. to those who've loved at least once in their lives... Happy Valentine's Day. cheers!
