My birthday is coming up. It's actually on Sunday. Yes, apparently I'll be 23 in four days. How cool is that? Umh I'm not sure why am growing so old so fast but still am excited :) Well may be not exactly excited(at least not about the growing old bit) but content at where I am in my life.
I didn't know what to write so I just compiled something silly (below). I'm awed at how revealing my posts have been as evidenced by the 'poem' below. You want to know one more thing about me? I'm out of school for a whole month? It's so surreal. I'm sleeping in at the slightest chance. Oh I'm so turning 23 in style. Imagine a month's break from school? What am I gonna do with myself? Ideas welcome. For the last few days I've been trying to get caught up on my reading (not school books). I'm currently reading the Kite Runner thanks to SisBigBones for recommending it :)
I thank, you, for reading my amateur poetry. Each of you has given me mojo to keep attempting to put words together. Words that you've come back over and over again and read and surprisingly commended me on. I'm humbled.
Your swinging by my blog has somewhat in a way beyond you and me contributed to my being this year and for that to, you, I'm grateful.
I know as you read this you're in stitches because this is me coming out of the closet and telling you despite my putting 2-4 words in four line paragraphs(otherwise called poems) I actually cannot write or put together a post. I shall not intricate things by divulging you on my many failed attempts at paying someone to write my term school papers. I cannot begin to put in words the joy that has transcended my existence each time I've done the reference page of any of my term papers. If written in supposedly the correct order the reference page should come last. Incessantly my self motivation or lack of thereof has led me to start my term papers backwards. Yes, I always type my reference page first. I know it's simply out of this world. As I said my many attempts at writing have undoubtedly failed but my obstinate nature won't badge. I shallow not succumb. So, laugh all you want. LOL
Happy Birthday to all ye Scorpios out there!!! Pandave hope you have recovered enough to enjoy your birthday :)
After all is said and done...My dears I give you yet another of my amateur pieces.Enjoy...
Another year has come and is almost gone
Just like the other one
Each day brings the close of this year nigh
Her mind unabashedly goes back in time
Revisiting her past
she sits alone
lets her body, soul and mind
go back, back into times gone
tears stream down her face
as a smile forces its being on her lips
lighting up her face
almost like the sun shining in the rain
bittersweet memories
flood her whole being
lost in time
she recounts each sunrise and sunset
watches herself walk down each road
good and bad
paths of peace, quiet and joy
others trod of brokenness, tears and pain
sometimes letting herself stay down
longer than she should
others picking herself up, dusting herself and moving on
all lessons learnt
no mistakes,just lessons
halting at moments of triumph and joy unspeakable
overwhelmed by times of sheer exhaustion
at times succumbing to aloneness
sometimes counting on others to pick her up
filled with unsurety
sometimes even letting her guard down
mastering the strength to reach out to others for comfort
then taking out time to recuperate
all the while leaning on God
sometimes allowing her feelings to show
often letting go, to let God
her beloveds always at heart
at times to burdened to tell the difference
reminding others to see the good in themselves
commemorating her passed on dear ones
accepting life's lemons
but still living for the moment
soldiering tough times
allowing herself to purge some things in her life
remembering to be appreciative
some days overcome by darkness
grieving her patients
being in love
Of all people missing her the most
wishing each of you(readers/bloggers/friends/everyone out there reading this or not) the very best
