A LAW student was once asked:

“Why does LOVE come so unexpectedly and leave suddenly but the effects that remain are borne eternally?”

HE answered, “Because like domicile, LOVE, when established,  shall never cease to exist…

WHEN THERE IS NO INTENT TO ABANDON.”

When I lie myself to sleep

I see your image

at the blank space above me

The way you remind me of the way you left

could cut my heart into pieces.

As shadows fill up my room

your scent fills up the air.

I tried to throw the blanket away but

the stains you’ve made, remained in my pillowcase.

I wash my hair to keep my mind alive

coz the pain you left me resembles death..

Well, I think it’s worse than that

The smoke lies up as the sun goes down

it’s far gloomy than it used to be

you could kill me soon or I’ll do it for your favor.

Another poetry especially for me from Mr. XSP

EXCERPTS FROM A WARM CUP

HNYB: ” I nod looking at the way you hesitate to take my hand resting so near yours. “I know you’re  already gone”, I tell myself. I will forget the feel of your hands on my skin. I will smile and tell you that I’m happy for you because that’s what you want to hear and believe. I will not hope you will be back soon nor say that “I wish I am going with you”. Instead, I will keep in mind that there is nothing between us anymore. It’s just that the coffee is too warm and I am so cold.

“If you see me walking the road with someone else, it’s not because I like his company.. It’s because you’re not brave enough to walk beside me. If you hear me talking about him all the time, it’s because you’re deaf to hear my heart beat. If you feel that I’m falling with someone new, it’s not what I really feel.. It’s because I want you to know that I do have the heart to love, not just you. If you feel that I don’t love you, you know that it was never true.. It’s just that you’re too insensitive not to feel the love that I’ve always had for you. “

Broke

For every last bruise, they gave me..

For all the time i sat in tears..

For the million ways they’ve hurt me..

i tell them..

“YOU BROKE MY WORLD BUT YOU MADE ME STRONG”

When FaLLing In Love

“When it comes to love,
you need not fall but rather surrender,
surrender to the idea that you must love yourself
before you can love another.
You must absolutely trust yourself
before you can absolutely trust another
and most importantly you must accept your flaws
before you can accept the flaws of another.“

WiLL LOve Work @ Work?

Studies reveal that work is one of the most common places couples meet.  In fact, four in ten of us admit to having been romantically linked to a co-worker. Personally, i don’t agree to the idea of having a lover at work. Yes, there are some who dared but what sucks is the  risk that office romance can wind up wreaking havoc on your career, potentially damaging your working relationships and reputation at the office. Moreover, the tendency of getting used to each other and eventually making your everyday companionship routinary and boring could make love  easily fade away.  Another thing,  what if you end up with a bad break up? How are you going to handle the situation seeing each other and working together 8 hours a day, 7 days a week? Moving on would be hard. You may end up losing your job as well. tsk..tsk..tsk..

Despite of the downfalls of office dating, many people have find their love at work and even end up marrying each other. So, if you’re into it. Take note of these do’s and dont’s in office dating:

Office Dating Do’s:

• Do take the practical approach to a potential attraction towards a co-worker. Make sure to review the policies of your employer before making a move. Just like any other move, make sure the benefits out weigh the risks. In other words, if company policy says no dating, don’t do it. If it’s not mentioned and it feels right to you, give it a shot.
• Do see the reality of the situation for what it is. Dating someone at work might not be an option for you. If no one else in your office is dating a co-worker there may be a reason for it. Don’t force things. If your interest is based solely on physicality, be careful.
• Do play it cool. Dating a co-worker can start a firestorm of tittle-tattle, controversy and water-cooler gossip, so it’s best to keep things quiet for as long as you can – or at least until you know if it’s serious. Even then, if you’re not ready for the weird looks, awkward smirks and whispers, then think again before asking that colleague out. Play it cool and don’t give people any excess reason to spread rumors.
• Do continue to do your work and keep up with your responsibilities. If you’re dating a higher up, you may not want to slack off and give your co-workers any reason for contempt or potential resentment. If you get promoted with the help of your office-mate, then keeping up with your productivity will be essential to keeping your reputation in-place amongst your co-workers.

Office Dating Don’ts:

• Don’t get involved with anyone who is, or could potentially be a subordinate. If someone reports to you, forget it. In fact, forget even thinking about it. The potentials and risk for a lawsuit and consequences are greater than the benefits. You’re better off thinking about handing in your letter of resignation before you ask your assistant out.
• Don’t be reckless. Showing your feelings and getting physical on the job might not be the best idea. The “h” word, i.e. harassment or even worse yet the “s.h.” word, as in sexual harassment can destroy everything you’ve worked so hard for. If things don’t go well between you and your new found love they could quickly turn to legal heartache, if you’re not careful. Simply leave the heavy petting and cat calling outside of the workplace and spare yourself the potential embarrassment by avoiding the chance of harassment accusations.
• Don’t abuse or take advantage of the situation. Never use company funds to entertain your newly found special-someone. Don’t leave triple-x voicemails, notes or emails for your office babe.
• Don’t ever engage in sexual activity on company property. This one’s fairly straightforward. And yes, company property includes stairwells, supply closets, restrooms and company parking lots.

Being nocturnal for a almost year has been tough and my health suffered. huhu.. :c So much for the drama,:-j now, i can fulfill my aim for this year and that is — TO GAIN WEIGHT. lol You may think it’s shallow but getting big is such a big deal for me. hmf! there’s so much to look forward to this year, last year has been a blessed year for me.. weeeeehhh too many to mention the reasons why. )  this year, im turning 22.. weeeeeeehhh hope i can find a partner. it may not be for lifetime.(not ready for that yet but who knows? he might be the one.. hahai!)

“Choose between yesterday and tomorrow. Pick one. Stick with it.”,

To all the ships on the sea and to all the ports. To all my friends, my family and strangers. “This is a message and a prayer. The message is that during my trips I found a great truth. I have already found what everybody is looking for…and few find: „the person for whom I was born to love. ” Somebody like me, from Outer Banks county… …from the mysterious Atlantic. ” O person rich in simple values… …a person who learnt on his own. A port in which I am always at home. The wind, the problems… …or a little death can’t destroy this house. I pray for all the people to know such love and to recover from it. If my prayer is listened to, there won’t be guilt any more, or regrets. Neither anger. Please, God. Amen!”

A SONNET FOR A BAMBOO

Bits of the past flooded my being;
seems like reminiscing became my game.
My heart seemed to be bleeding;
realizing nothing is the same.
The melody of what was once our anthem,
just simply lost its rhythm.

Could i still come to you and whisper
how much you mean to me and cry a river?
I suppose i don’t deserve your time
but may your heart forget my crime.
Now I’m begging you to please bare with me,
so that beyond my eyes, you’ll see;
my absence might have drew a huge distance
but I never learned to forget you even for an instance.

by: KINSDAVE

i miss you, kins!
i seek for your wisdom!
if there’s time
let’s cherish it together
like we’ll never see each other again…
