Memories
In this world you tried,
Leaving me alone behind.
There's no other way,
I pray to the gods let him stay.
The memories cease the pain inside,
Now I know why.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments,
Imagine you'd be here.
All of my memories keep you near,
In silent whispers, silent tears
Made me promise I'd try,
To find my way back in this life.
Hope there is a way,
To give me a sign you're okay.
Reminds me again it's worth it all,
So I can go home.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments,
Imagine you'd be here.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent whispers, silent tears.
Together in all these memories,
I see your smile.
All of the memories I hold dear.
Darling you know I'll love you,
Til the end of time.
All of my memories keep you near
In silent moments,
Imagine you'd here.
All of my memories keep you near,
In silent whispers, silent tears.
All of my memories...

Finding good symphonic metal bands that I like are kinda hard. This band is one of those I like, especially with songs like 'Jillian' and 'Angel'.
A reply to my previous blog post got me thinking. Heck, even without that comment, I've been turning it over in my mind. Did I make the right decision in stopping things from going too far? Am I just being too picky, too obsessed over the past?
No. I have not. Like I said in my reply, maybe holding on to this hope is insane and bound to end in disappointment. Then again, it need not. A calculated risk I would say.
Untill the time when this hope is finally crushed or fulfilled, all of my memories will keep you near...

Happiness at the moment may just turn sour the very next second. this is a true and cruel fact everyone has to adapt themselves to. treat mistakes of the past as experiences. Experiences which make the heart grows even braver and tougher.
Therefore, appreciate every moment before they turn into irreversible memories. Be calm and stay strong as how you were. May God Bless!
p/s: I'm not persuasive. i am just merely giving supports here. I understand how excruciating and anguish your situation is at the moment. Perhaps it's a great opportunity to get your delicate heart toughened.

'Let it go already..." thats what my friends used to advice me whenever i broke up with someone i love...maybe that piece of advice is what really keeps me going on, giving me courage to start anew and look forward to the future... so, just let go...cause what is yours will come back to you no matter what happens..but what isn't, no matter how hard you try...still you won't own it...thats destiny....
I agreed with whoever that had jz left the comments here. There are times I'm still bound by the past, making me afraid to even take that step ahead, to believe, or perhaps having confidence over it again.
Am still learning though...Don't really know what u're going through but above all,cont to put ur trust in Him. Take care..
Haha, delicate heart...now thats something I haven't heard anyone say that about me in a long time...most of the time people wonder if I even have a heart...
Hmm, thanks for all your comments and concern. Let me lay out my thought process more clearly.
A foolish, sentimental part of me likes to think that I'm waiting for her. I've ended some relationships with others in the past because I found myself thinking of her. And I seriously doubt any girl wants a guy whose heart is with someone else. A few of my previous posts touch on this part of my life.
The more realistic and cynical part of me knows I'm really waiting on God. Some people who know me know that I've previously been attracted to other girls so strongly to the point where I've nearly gotten involved with them. The reasons why I didn't were completely unrelated with her. There a few posts in there that relates to these area of my life too.
So, after everything that has happened, I've decided to keep things platonic with everyone and wait and see what the guy upstairs has in store for me. The fact that even after all this time I still feel strongly for her may mean something. Or maybe it doesn't. We'll see.
IF you love her so much, then why u two broke up ? Ever regretted ?
(just curious ) By the way, thank you for the lyrics,like the song too...
You do have a heart...it's jz the matter whether ppl look deep enough to know about it.
But, seriously if u're not even sure whether u can get back to her, why not letting it go & take a new step into a new chapter of life? Of course, it is easier said than done.
Better not start advising someone when I, myself is facing somewhat such probs too..Hah..
Just take one step of faith at a time...
We ended it due to...external influences. Practical reasons. Lets just say she was...obedient.
I tried to respect her decision. N I tried to be macho about it. Lol, big mistake. It ended up hurting me even more. Made a fool of myself a few times.
No, I've never regretted ever being with her. My time with her remains so far the highlight of my life. I do wonder sometimes if I should have tried to change her mind but....no. The reasons were sound and so....logical.
Love is supposed to be irrational, but hey, we still live in the real world in the end. I just wish it wasn't so sometimes.
So now I can only wait and see what God's plan is. Thats all.
P.S. Glad you like the song. Not sure if you'd like the music though. Symphonic metal isn't everyone's cup of tea...
I'm sorry to hear you're facing similar problems too. Though I kinda guessed it after reading a few of your posts last time...
To love is to risk. At the very least, I'll know I've done everything I could and can move on later without regrets instead of forever having a little voice at the back of my head wondering 'What if?'
Anyway, like I said, I'm just gonna leave it to the guy upstairs now. In the meantime, I'm just gonna enjoy bachelorhood. N now I'll have more money to spend on myself muahahahha =P
Haha...good that u're enjoying ur bachelorhood. Ya, more $$ to Dota?? LOL...joking...
I guess i'm changing into that mentality soon too. Well, I had been enjoying it after my first relationship ended (aft getting over the pains & hurts). Took me very hard to open up to someone else thereafter, but stupidly i did..
Too bad, never know what he wants exactly...ended up being miserable all over. So getting tired about it, so ya...i'm trying to get that feeling back, the singlehood feeling.
I do think a lot of "what if"...but just a thought. Nothing can be changed or re-done.
who says that you have no heart? the particular reason why did they say so was probably because they did not know you well, or thoroughly i shall say. Never regret of falling in love even if we are hurt. At least those sweet memories will always keep us going. getting pretty speechless now, but anyway, enjoy yr bachelorhood yea? have fun and take care.
I've never regretted loving her. N I will enjoy it, dun wry. Janice is spot on actually lol. I think me n my buddies have easily settled the AsiaCafe cyber operators monthly wages just from our custom. =P
Moving... whereabouts is this girl now? is she near?
Does it really matter how near or far she is? And why the heck is everyone anonymous? (Besides, janice...obviously)
I've experience just seeing her, but not being able to get close...sigh
Is it the same for you?
does that matter? we r just silent supporters. Well, hope u r doing well
I think best like anonymous & Janice said is best move on & let it go. Of course its easier said than done.
I know you can do it even though I'm not the best person to be telling you this. All that matters now is having Faith. Btw, why haven you been replying my smses? Just wanted to know how ya doing & how's life.
Do keep in touch. God Bless
Having Faith? Hah.
Sorry if you didn't receive my previous sms. I'm doin ok m n in sunway for the moment. Can cari me anytime dun wry. Why, want belanja me makan issit? ^^
And yes, it does matter cos its always nice to know who thinks what. Besides, I'll tend to give more weight to advise from someone I know then just some anonymous person. Then again, I understand that one may not exactly like to reveal who they are in public. And it makes replying to comments a hell lot easier when theres a dozen anonymous leaving comments here lol. Oh well. There's always emails available.
And I've already gone tru that experience b4. Different girl. Gotten over that one years ago. Was before this particular one. Sucks, I know. Life sucks sometimes anyway. Then it goes on. Or it ends. You choose.
