Was I dreaming with open eyes? Was I living in my own version of reality? Was I seeking solace in something that wasn't even there? Was it all my mistake? Time will tell. Did I squander my sleep on you? Did I waste my tears on you? Did I not live enough in my present [...]

No Regrets
"If only I had not done this, things could have been so much better..." "Oh, but I did have a great time!" These are the two different voices that keep echoing in our mind after something we had done ends up in not-so-good results. So we can either beat ourself up with regret or raise [...]
Drowning in Bed
As you lay drowning in bed, Draped in sickness, You wonder what you could write next. For no sickness could drown your resolve, Your crazy love for writing. As you lay dreaming in bed, You finally pick up a paper and pen To jot down what you dream, To jot down before you drown.
Gratitude
I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning, not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night, I was sleeping under a bridge [...]
You Know When You Know
You know when you know, But you refuse to accept. You know when you know, But you keep looking on. You know when you know, But you make such a fuss. You know when you know, But you wallow in self-pity. You know when you know, But you choose to ignore.

The Glorious Mess Called “Us”
"How can her life be just perfect? Everything about her future, from her higher education to her job to her to-be husband is so sorted out. And in a good way! Just how?" wondered aloud I to a friend. "We don't know everything about her. So relax," she replied. "Still! And look at me! I [...]
Why Does It Pain?
Why does it pain? Why does it hurt so much? It pains because you have a heart. It hurts because you love so much. What if you are careful? Won't it hurt less? It would. But then you wouldn't love as much.
Time Will Tell
Were we right? Or were we wrong? Was something really there? Or was it long gone? Time will tell. Did we put in too much? Or did we not do enough? Did we wish too much? Or did we not even really dream? Time will tell. Will it happen ever again? Or was last time [...]
