Letter from 2009 to 2010

J-Z

A lot has changed since I came back to Singapore. You know, I remember you telling me once that when you're sad, you won't actually show it, you'll just laugh a lot, you know "hahahahaha" and all that. I remember a lot of things about us. Sometime later I visited your blog, and saw your post about your reaction after...that day. You told me you were alright. You have no idea how guilty I felt when I read your blog and found out how you really feel.

That was a lie wasn't it? I broke something that day. And I want to apologize for it. I know that it doesn't help and it doesn't really matter now because that's all behind us, but I never got to truly say that I was sorry for it, and I am.

I'm happy now, however. I'm happy because We don't treat each other like exes normally treat each other. I'm happy that we still talk and all. I was afraid when I found out you have a bf that we would lose contact, but still we're talking, and I hope that things are comfortable between you and me, that we can still consider each other friends.

I never told you this, but after it ended, the way we were still talking, You became...almost like a big sister to me...at least, as big as you can get :P. You remember?

Make no mistake, I'm not hoping for things to go back to the way they used to be. Hell, I don't think it should, but I hope that you will still see me as a guy who cares for you as a good friend.

I've always seen you as an angel. Caring, sweet, and let's face it, your pretty as well. and I believe that won't change anytime soon. I feel honored just to be friends with you.

I want that to continue. I want us to remain friends for as long as possible.

I hope that this note can explain somethings to you. Happy new year :) and have a great 2010.

Regards,

Sky.

1st in a long time

Her desk cluttered with papers,
A mixture of documents and old
Love letters. She reads through them
without abandon, a twinkle in her
eyes, content and yet wanting.

She's beautiful, in every sense of
The word. Funny, caring, and
stunning, she's a vision to many
and to a lucky few, a friend.

Her eyes glow despite the light
coming from a lone candle on her
Table, they shine througout

One of the love letters catches
Her attention. It has no name

All that's on it is this poem.

Sentinel on the Cliff

This blog died for a while, Now I'm reviving it. 1st post in a long time.

He runs through the woods on nimble feet, making not a sound. It's instinct to him, how he never hits a tree, or stumbles on the gray branches and brambles that litter the forest floor. Clear and keen eyes scan his path, noting every crack in the ground. Every puddle, leaf, twig and bug is taken in stride.

He runs on, an unhindered soul beating with life on this cold autumn night. Every muscle of his ripples in unison, working not as seperate entities, but a single, focused power, as he charges through the underbrush. Stopping not, on and on he runs. Without fear, without inhibitions, he runs. Through the black, he runs.

Silent as the wind, he speeds through the darkness. Shadow upon shadow, few see, and those who see, none react, for they know it is futile to catch the ghost among the trees.

There! amongst the trees! a slimmer of light. He alters his path towards it. Every step brings him closer, every bound he takes brings him nearer to the light. The trail begins to go uphill. The soil slowly replaced with stone, angled in such a way no other would dare scale it. With everystep, it gets harder. every foot infront of the other, more effort is needed, more is put in. It is a hard climb.

But he will not be denied.

With a final snarl of defiance, he bursts from the treeline, onto the protruding cliff. Eyes a bright yellow look across up at the stars and full moon. He draws breath, filling his lungs with fresh air.

He lets loose the air in a long, unyielding howl.

The Sentinel on the cliff watches all.

Silence

The tape has been pulled from my
mouth, the gag removed. The bonds
Cut from my hands and feet, and my
resolve renewed.

For a time my voice was lost. For a
time, I had nothing, I was quiet.
But silence has a way of making many
things desired.

I'm back ladies and Gentlemen.

Trail of letters

Half of me is hoping that you you will read this, that you still visit this blog. The other half hopes you don't see this.

However, if you are reading this, thank you for listening...really.

To you, it may look like I'm in possession of a vast amount of happiness that I take with me wherever I go, but even I need to get things off my chest at times. I know you're busy and stuff, so don't worry. I just feel more...distant from everything, almost like I have to wade through syrup to get to everything...to everyone...to you.

Sigh, it's been tough, the past few weeks, all the stress and work etc...But don't get me wrong, every smile I had was still genuine.

I still feel distant. And I don't know why.

Sigh, enough self brooding for now. Need to start smiling again.

Cheers and Waiting,

Healing Poet

Wrappers strewn about the floor
A tree with leaves moulting. So dry
An assortment of gifts scattered about
The floor while children scamper about
Merrily ripping paper of packages

No other day would anyone be so happy
To see a house so messy.

Merry Christmas All :P
