Bye bye 2017

It's that time of the year again. The only time I usually don't miss a post haha. Sometimes I wonder why does it feel more significant to have resolutions at the start of the year. I wonder why only then people would choose to make a change in their lives. And then I realised that all those sneaky marketing tricks about New Year has got something to do with it lmao. All that hype. Jokes aside, in a way this 'New Year Resolution' might be a real motivation for some. It's something to look forward to after the hectic year that we're about to leave behind. So who am I to shit on what makes them happy aye? My 2018 is gonna be "You do you, and I do me". I'm gonna leave it here and bid 2017 goodbye. You have served me well. All those experiences will not be in vain. The good and the bad. May the next year be awesome as always. 

Good things come to those who wait they said, so wait I shall. 

Dream

Ever had a dream that felt so real that you woke up in daze and confusion? You could still feel the pain that you acquired from the dream, so raw that you let out a sob. A dream that still lingers even a few days later. The last time I felt that was a few years ago. I don't want to feel that again. Knowing me, I'm the kind that would bottle up her feelings and act like everything is alright. I don't want to deal with that alone again.

I see the moon and the moon sees me

The moon sees somebody that I don't see

God bless the moon and God bless me

God bless the somebody that I don't see

If I get to heaven before you do,

I'll make a hole and pull you through

I'll write your name on every star

And that way the world won't seem so far

She always felt lost and it was beautiful not

knowing how she would find herself. 

For everything she knew was a speck of something 

greater and it was just a matter of time until

all of her made sense.

Memories

Looking back, many things have changed. So many people I've met along the way, and lost some too. What was once a heart break I never thought I'd get over with is now a lesson learnt. People I've hurt, and people who made me laugh. I feel pretty nostalgic now after archiving my old Tweets. I can't help but feel some sadness creep in. I miss them. I miss the old times I had with them. More importantly, I miss my old self. If I could turn back the time, maybe I would have acted differently. Cherished and enjoyed the moments more without a worry of what will come tomorrow. 

Sometimes even unburned bridges have no way of making you walk back to where everything was because there's just no reason to return or maybe you just lost your way back.

Now, they're just memories. Forever the same...
