the bus and the city
Oh, just rode the bus today. It was ghetto and nostalgic. At one point I looked out the window and thought, that sign looks familiar. Then I thought some more and realize it’s the sign to the exact street I lived on three years ago. Memories all over the city. Next thing I realized was that I was on the wrong bus! What should have been a 20 minute bus ride took me a 2 hr tour of the city to...
time — doesn’t think but remembers easily we can be good, the both of us.

thedustdancestoo:
please tell me
the story of the scar
on your upper lip.
i don’t care how long
it takes to tell,
just let me finish it
with a kiss.

to talk to touch and feel maybe i was not meant to love you this way so when the trees shake and the flowers tremble remember someone loves you just from somewhere out of the way.

How much information can people handle? I think I crossed my line here. So eager to change something in my life that it got out of control? Isn’t that funny. Time to shut my mouth. Become shallow again.

Learning from teaching English.
Everyone once in awhile you learn something from teaching English. I learned that Sun Moon Lake is named so after it’s shape. Because the east side looks like the sun and the west side looks like the moon. Ha! Thanks English book.
i do.

if i had a heart,
i’d make music.
i’d love,
i’d hope,
i’d believe
in something more
than myself,
something more
than brokeness
and lonely nights.
i’d see beauty,
blessing,
and forgiveness
in the sunrise,
and i’d inhale it.
if i had a heart,
i’d make music
loud enough
to move waves,
mountains,
and clouds.
if i had a heart,
i’d love you
every second
every...
the second.
lay down your vest for me in the mountains of ropes and trees candle wax will burn; remain while we are gone. unusual : unique. you caught me. (oct 27, 2011)

thedustdancestoo:
these branches are heavy,
bending under the weight
of ice. frost. early winter
biting the bark of trees and bits
of uncovered skin: hands,
a nose, ears, chapped lips.
let a cloud slip out,
a sigh, it will hang around
for a second and disappear.
i don’t know where
the moon went,
i don’t remember seeing go.
the porch light casts
stark shadows on imprints
of snow...
Funny is that I love you and now you don’t Cruel is that Stop loving you; I won’t (Oct 17 , 2011)
The clearest of truths. The biggest of lies. Which would you rather? One, not the other. Fear remains Yet you say, I have not left. This weight; my pain. The greatest of tests. Could you stay for awhile? Let me love you like I should. Start to retreat Just like I suspected you would.

epiphany
It came to me while I was cycling around the city today. My life has been waiting for too long. Granted, I do really dislike my life here in my home country. Still I need to stop waiting for life to start. Too busy waiting for my life to start that I haven’t thought for once about what I’m doing now. I can do things now that can help me in the future. I have the resources…. I...
