Kiss Me Goodbye
Artist: Angela Aki
Composer: Nobuo Uematsu
You say my love is all you need
To see you through
But I know these words are not quite true
Here is the path you’re looking for
An open door
Leading the worlds you long to explore
Go, if you must move on alone
I’m gonna make it on my own
Kiss me good-bye, love’s memory
Follow your heart and find your destiny
Don’t shed a tear, for love’s mortality
For you put the dream in my reality
As time goes by I know you’ll see this of me
And I loved enough to let you go free
Go, I will give you wings to fly
Cast all your fears into the sky
Kiss me good-bye, love is mystery
All of my life, I’ll hold you close to me
Don’t shed a tear, for love’s mortality
For you put the dream in my reality
Kiss me good-bye, love’s memory
You put the dream in my reality
Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy?
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar
My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?
Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer
So let me come to you
Close as I want to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I love your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?
Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming
Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then I will know
that you are no dreamer
Poor little creatures
who do not know the art of communication,
the beauty of respect,
and the nobleness of being tactful,
may God bless your sorry souls,
for being loved by others is such a challenge in your petite life.
And may Him gift me with such forgiveness,
since to err is human,
to forgive, divine...
Amen.
The Snow is falling,
and so am I.
But Snow falls on the ground
and melt into the Earth.
I fall in love
and melt into You.
Listen to your heart
for it knows what is best for you.
Listen to your heart
since it is the soul of your body.
Listen to your heart
as it is indeed the most sane and conscious part of your blinded mind.
Listen to your heart
and be in love...
What is love?
I don't know! There's no answer to that mysterious question. Everyone has their own definitions of love.
For me, love is father,
mother,
siblings,
pets,
your noisy and heartily neighbour,
your over-confident yet loyal friend,
your short-tempered but super nice classmate.
Moreover, it is
an old couple walking hand-in-hand in a park under the tranquil light of an autumn afternoon, speaking no words;
a five-year-old girl who doesn't care a tiny bit about her stained dress since cuddling with that lost fluffy puppy is the best thing in the world;
a young mother who teaches her little children to share their toys with those kids who live at that run-down apartment;
a father who has to leave his important project at the middle of his brainstorming just to drag his teenage daughter back and forth a birthday party of her "BFF";
and the existence of the world itself.
Because if there's no love at all, humankind would be extincted long ago, isn't it? Since humans are the worst killers ever existed...
So for those souls who find themselves saddened by the sight of "love is in the air" on that very lover-dovey day, don't be! The tradition of Valentine's Day was mainly invented and maintained just a few decades ago by Hallmark, Hershey, Lindt and all those giant confectionery/ cards companies. Now you should already smell "business" here instead of chocolate and roses.
And for those who are already "unavailable", you don't need a Valentine's Day at all, do you?
For TRUE love has been there forever...
Happy Valentine's Day! For the love that I have for you my friends, always and ever!
I am so sick. It's been over 2 weeks now since my mildest symptoms. Bluche hates me. I've been enjoying the last 19 years healthily 'til I came to this winter wonderland. I am even more acquainted with the school staff and the doctors more than my peers. Geez...
I've been thinking and keeping this inside for so long, but it's getting to a point that I can't help but blurt it out on my personal blog, not for the whole world to criticize and discuss but to organize this whole mess swirling together with my neuro (however you spell its plural noun...): I feel like I'm one of the few last ones of my generation who's still single. Of course I'm not comparing myself with thousands of millions of those nineteen-year-old people across the globe, but it still feels awkward when I look around: my high school bastards, my current colleagues; one of them even got engaged to be probably married next year!! Being the one who sees the cup half-full, I still can't insist wondering if there really is something which creates these little obstacles preventing me hand-in-hand with someone? Certainly I'm not desperate for a boyfriend, I'm just blaming my natural hormones that are pushing me to seek for the opposite sex: basic instinct. That was a pretty good excuse, right?
Right! I've been babbling again. I really need to turn in for now, dreaming and weaving my blending emotions and self-phylosophized ideas about this stupid but always been there question:
What is love?
The snow is still falling outside.
