Sep 6th, 2011 2:47:00am I wrote a poem of that title, a long time ago. I wrote it is a reminder to myself during a time long ago where my heart was weakened by events that rendered it bruised and sore. I felt the best way to get through the pain would be to bury … Continue reading ‘Work Is Worship’

The Future Is Bright
Apr 15th, 2011 4:34:00pm I am officially in my last year of high school. Then A-levels (which is considered as college) then university. Just yesterday, it was my first day in first grade, and I was silently crying because my bag’s zipper broke and I didn’t know how to get my books out, scared I’d … Continue reading The Future Is Bright
The Wisdom of Youth
Jul 18th, 2010 12:43:00am When I was 11, I wrote a story. The plot and writing were quite terrible, really, but back then it was my pride and joy. A plain single-lined notebook was its home, in my best handwriting at the time, and a little picture was carefully drawn at the end of each … Continue reading The Wisdom of Youth
Desire to Be
Feb 22nd, 2010 3:19:00am In slightly less than twenty four hours, I have finished two books by the same author: Paulo Coelho’s Like the Flowing River and Veronika Decides to Die. After first reading The Alchemist, I had become a great fan of his writing, because I felt it spoke to me in a way … Continue reading Desire to Be
“You’ve Changed.”
Nov 19th, 2009 10:49:00pm I can not tell you how many times I have heard those words uttered to me these past few months. And every time, I ask how I have been altered. And every time, they do not have an answer, except for the fact that I am different than I was before. … Continue reading “You’ve Changed.”
On Hard Work
28 July, 2016, 10:25 PM Sometimes I'm terrified that I'm more in love with the idea of hard work than hard work itself. I like making plans and planning routines. I like the fresh beginnings and I like the idea of having reached the end. The middle, though... That's the part I'm not too keen … Continue reading On Hard Work
Before the rain
My god. This is beautiful. The sky is at breaking point with the weight of those beautiful ominous grey clouds. They’re lurking over us, and I can just tell they’re smirking as they wait for the right moment to let loose. Hanging onto our anticipation, feeding off the tension of the Earth as she waits for her thirst, and that of all she has borne, to be quenched. The … Continue reading Before the rain
I think too fast sometimes. Thoughts will race through my head, then suddenly one, or several, will pass by without me even really knowing what they were. Only a vague impression of them. Then I’ll have to stop my train of thought, and go back, and slow things down, sometimes repeat them, over and over, … Continue reading
I don’t want to miss a moment. I’m tired. Really, really physically tired. This is a combination of short lived amounts of sleep and disturbing dreams to go with them. It’s taking its toll, and right now, the temptation to just lay my head down and close my eyes is growing so great the backs … Continue reading
Is it possible, I wonder…
For emotional wear-out to manifest itself physically? If so, then it’s starting at my knees… Sorry mom. Knee caps are wearing out anyway, from running away from everything that scared me so. Running away from me. I see the fear in your eyes, you know. When you look at me. I see it. You, scared … Continue reading Is it possible, I wonder…
