shalu & her new Guess wallet,
gaya3 and her erm, pandi did you buy anything recently?
and lastly, sivan and her swollen eye!

-----------------------------------------
each word gets forgotten and replaced
each event overriding the previous
lose the frame of mind
and it feels lost, forever
i'm afraid if i never write it down
then i would never remember
before i could pen my thoughts
they have disappeared
and this emptiness fills me up again.

quotes

"We do get over terrible times; we're built to do that.
Most people learn again to laugh and love
and respond to beauty and fight ugliness
and clasp hands with friends,
even though they've lost a kind of joy that they'll never get back.

There's an unlit corner in their hearts
and no light will ever penetrate to it.
It will always be dark."

"That's why it's so important to be close to those we love,
not to take them for granted,
not to give up when we are baffled by
how complicated it can be to understand
and be understood by another person.

And that's why you should open up to people;
not just ask questions like a journalist
but share your feelings with them,
because that's what makes us close and loving and human.

If you don't, you may wake up one day
and find your chances for love and closeness gone,
and that's another kind of death.

Tragedy is no excuse, you know.
However long it takes, we do recover
