They say: You should always say what you feel.
But we all know that some things are better off unsaid.
Is that skipped heartbeat you feel when the doorbell rings,
although knowing that he will never come back.
A year ago, I was stupid.
I remember the butterflies I used to feel in my tummy when you texted.
Oh what a fool I was.
Trying to fit in a world where I did not belong in.

Today, I am stupid.
Because next year,
I would probably look back on a mistake I am currently involved in.
Oh well, maybe one day I'll run out of mistakes,
or I might just start calling them lessons.

Until then, I am stupid.
who else would find crying weakness
other than a bully
You once asked me
what I'd do
if you asked me to stop being friends
with you

I said
- "I'd ask why,
and I'd feel sad"
- "I'd never be the
same person again"
- "But I can't really force someone
to be my friend"

You thought
I needed to fight more
for you

and then you said
"Know that will never happen."
"I would never ask you to stop being friends."

You never did,
You just left.

I'm no longer the same person

So I guess,
in a way
we both kept
our words.
It all starts with a single glance
followed by a few words of fluttering romance

that's when the lies begin
and trust me, deep down we know

however, we still choose to go down that same road
because although its a road of lies, its a road of loving lies

*and who doesn't like to feel loved?
Turn off the lights,
don't wait for me

Don't wait for me
I'm a weight

Putting you down
This year was a really good one
and I have God to thank for that

I learned to focus on the process
and not on the result
to really be honest
and to never insult

I learned that people change
and feelings range
from full
to null

I learned to place my happiness
in the One and only who will never let me down
To take life's crappiness
with a smile rather than a frown

To work hard
and pray for the best
To take in regard,
with how much I'm blessed

To love myself
and my quirkiness,
To not place feelings on the shelf
for other's cleanliness

To be confident
about all of me
And to compliment
things I liked to see

To treat things
as I want them to be,
and so they shall be
within my conformity

To improve
with every minute
and to move
forward with no limit

To take each day
as it comes
rather than sway
on possibilities, tons

To love,
and to love,
and to be.
Do not hold my past against me, for it is not who I am
it is who I
*was
Humans will always disappoint
but You are divine
You never let me down
even when I step out of line

you be my guide and bring me back
and even when I wrong
you forgive
and in my darkest days

you keep me strong
and as the people I wish would stay
end up walking away
You always remain
and you have always remained

and now my heart could rest with ease
knowing that even if people were meant to leave
you will always be by me for sure
and in you, my God, I will always believe
The only forever
I will ever find
lies within the remembrance
that God is always by my side
