the airport.

January 27, 2008

always a place of smiles, tears, cries and laughter. Today I went to the airport twice; each for different reasons, for both, it was goodbye for a long long time.

the second time it was for people i grew up with, the first, a dear friend of mine. 

sometimes, there are so many things swirling in my head, too many to speak aloud. yet the silence is also unbearably deafening. too much, too much.

The hours the minutes the seconds. Time elapses in a fold of hands, an unfolding of destiny, a toss of a coin.

Too much, too much, all collapsed in a spin of the compass, the roadsigns pointing to places vision does not portray.

The spill of sundrops spreading over the grass. the brightness almost blinding, piercing like a slice of wind.

Too short, too little, so many, yet not enough. Countless and infinite, but still inadequate, insufficient.

What was certain and steady now has changed; unsure but almost tangible, almost in its form.

Silver in the windows to the sky, a river of depth and endless hopes and dreams. Silver in its solid nature.

Too many thoughts running through my mind;

family;
friends;
decisions;
work;
love;
faith;
steadfastness.

Running through my mind, running through my mind.

A lifetime in boxes

January 14, 2008

Unpacking and cleaning up
Sifting through memories.
Nostalgia washing over me
Over and over again.

Sometimes we are more sentimental than we would like
Sometimes memories remind you of things u prefer buried
At times I wished I had the ability to turn that off
But I know Im made like that.

A lifetime in boxes; it seems to be
Pictures, letters, gifts that were
Once special but no longer mean anything anymore
Thrown away like a broken saw.

There was a time

January 7, 2008

Every path in life, every place we go, everyone we meet, there will be a time.

There was a time,
The stars were shining upon a smile so sweet
The love was there and the river deep
It was a beautiful memory
And while it lasted, thank you sweet.

I know its no use, to apologize
I hope I can grant you your wish
Give me some time to restore the friendship
I promise I ll try my best.

There was a time, and while it lasted, thank you sweet.
