Everyday, I sit and try to mend that crack right there
Somedays, I succeed and managed to patch it up
But other days, my hand slips and the crack opens up again
Yet, no matter how hard I try to cover the crack,
it leaves a scar that cant be mend,
leaving behind a dull ache that echos from time to time.
Serves me right for actually behaving the way I did, for daring to have faith in the very matter that many people do not have, for actually hoping and dreaming. Climbed up the mountain of expectations and now I've come crashing back down off a cliff. Took a gamble and I lost.

It's always when night falls then do you start doubting in yourself.
When the silence bears down on you and the darkness engulfs your surroundings, a myterious signal seemed to be triggered into releasing all your insecurities. It's when you start becoming strangers with your self, foreign and unknown. Memories lingering in front of you, hovering there like a pesky housefly. They flash past you. You wince, you cringe but they do not disappear. You feel ashamed of yourself; you try to swat them away frantically; they flicker on stubbornly. The tear glands got down to work. You see memories of the past. Memories that you want to go back to desperately. Memories that you want to revive badly, ready to dive into them the moment they were ready. You jump off the diving board enticipating the the comforting embrace of the memories, just like how the water hugs you when you enter a dive. But you dont feel it. There you lie limply like a rag doll, on the icy surface in which you had thought was the surface of the water. You banged your fist hard on the surface, but nary a crack appeared. You realised with a jot that just like the water trapped underneath the layer of ice, some memories have also been locked up just like that. Beyond your reach. Beyond the point of return. You also discern that you can never go back to those times anymore. You were the one who laid down that unpenetrable block of thick, solid ice.
You comprehend. You understand what you should do. You try. The goodbye has still yet to be said. You know you should. You want to do it. But you cant, you just cant. It's difficult, and it's painful. And when you know that healed wounds may be ripped apart again soon, you just dont want to bring yourself to have to go through it again. The haunting fear of lonliness and feeling unwanted.
I think im having this very serious moodswings. Very serious moodswings indeed. I was feeling so happy this morning cos I went house visiting with the gang this morning and we played mj at my hse and i won a lot of the rounds so I was very happy.
