Random Thoughts XI


...chances are, the stars above are immensely beautiful because you are here with me...

Have you ever felt like you were invisible sometimes? That no matter how much you screamed no one seems to listen? Maybe the invisibility thing resonates bigger especially when there is a specific some one that you are trying to get the attention of...But there you go, that's life for ya...okay, okay enough random emo stuff for today :p I guess it's Sunday and everything always seems a little down on a Sunday evening...damn you Monday blues!!

And there they are,
Those diamonds in the rough,
That reflects in them dreams,
Dreams that stars only have...

And I can only wish,
To gaze upon them forever,
And to see me in view,
And to dream of stars with you...

PS : Racing against time, hoping that it slows down and speeds up at the same time - does this mean I've lost my mind?

The Girl who Drew Her Eyes to Life...


...often times the eyes of a stranger can captivate the furthest recesses of your mind...

I remember one day when I was on the Metro in Tokyo. I was getting back from Asakusa if I'm not mistaken. And I noticed a girl sitting opposite of me. Now, at first nothing was out of the ordinary. I didn't notice her at first. At a glance she looked to be a young student listening to music, reading her book on her way to somewhere in the city. A normal scene on the trains of Tokyo. It was a long commute and halfway I noticed the girl put away her books and took out something from her bag - it was a compact. Slowly and meticulously she started to apply foundation onto her face. When that was done, she took out an eye liner. You see, the trains along the Tokyo Metro tracks move really fast but some how, in her world, everything slowed down. Well, that's what I thought because she applied the eye liner with ease as if she was sitting in front of a mirror in the comfort of her room. I can distinctly remember the color she put on - it was brown. And I can distinctly remember each stroke she made along the lids of her eyes. They brought out the shape of her eyes and she looked different and yet the same.

I do not know why this memory stuck. And so vividly at that. If I close my eyes, it's as if I am there once again - on the red line of the Tokyo Metro, in the late morning. Only specks of people in the car that I was in and that girl that sat opposite me - the girl who drew her eyes to life...

For fun...

...slightly adrift, my mind wanders towards the horizon afar...my eyes look but my heart sees...

Something's Different...


...maybe moving on and letting go will not be so hard after all. Waiting for spring, gives me hope...

Something's shifted - the wind, the air...it feels and tastes different. And mornings seem brighter than I remember them to be, even though outside the rain clouds crowd over the azure sky. A new hope floats within me and it's a new (but familiar) feeling that I am welcoming. I can't place my finger on what has changed. But it is not in my place to question something that is bringing warmth and some peace to my heart. Of course I would do best not to be too carried away with these feelings - these wind of changes are just as unpredictable as how my heart beats each second. I do not regret the past. They help me build who I am...I am excited of the future though. I do not know what is in store but mystery is what keeps me alive, excited...

Random Thoughts X


...Jellyfish and Shooting Stars...

"Whenever I find a jellyfish or see a shooting star,
Your name floats into my mind...
No matter how imperfect you are,
I still like you so much...

I wonder if you can call this love?
Whenever I try to forget you, I end up loving you even more...
Is my wish to be together,
really unattainable?"
~Ai~
