It was a night like no other.

Time was trampled over. Leisure was stopped dead on its tracks. Mini-speech turned out as an epitome of epic fail.

After all these surprises, I asked myself: What else could possibly go wrong? So, tired and downcast, I sought solace in the company of my bestfriend, but ended up getting 20 times more loads of crap.

Sweet. Maybe I shouldn’t have bothered to ask.

Well, it wasn’t really his fault—at least not completely. Wrong place, wrong time—those kinda things. Plus, drama just  has this distinct characteristic of catching up really fast the more you try to keep yourself away from it. And, like they say: when it rains, it really pours.

Sigh.

I hope I could just go to sleep and dream it all away… but even the dark, silent dawn wouldn’t give room for a good night’s sleep.

when swift winds come unnoticed

March 2, 2010 2 comments

Okay, so I’ve been MIA for quite some time. The past two months of 2010 came by so fast I could hardly keep up with all that has happened. Though apparently, 2010 did not start too well for me, either.

Strained relationships, shattered friendships, and broken trusts.

If I were to give a title for the period of January to February, it can only fall short of betrayal.

Now that it’s all said and done,
I can’t believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.

What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.

It’s really sad. More of tragic, rather. Like a brother-kills-brother story. Why some people could do such an awful thing is beyond me. I reckon it has got to be the most unexpected thing to happen, of all the unexpected(s).

Well, I never saw it coming.
I should’ve started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I’d doubt you,
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know.

-excerpts from Chris Daughtry’s Over You

It may seem surprising how I’ve been able to manage amidst all this nightmare. Well, I’ve learned that patience is a virtue. But really, if it had not been for the few special people who had been with me in these trying times, I wouldn’t have had that epiphany, and I would’ve already gone mad. Thank you guys, especially for reminding me not to do anything stupid time and time again. You know who you are.

I’ve come to believe that indeed, things happen for a reason, or if not, that we simply have to look closer to see the reason for everything that happens.

It’s time to move on, and I guess this time, there’s no looking back.
