Waiting

Your voice echoes in my mind

and I hear longing and melancholy behind

the song you sing is reaching out, calling, wanting

and I know you're not over her and that you're still waiting.

So now what am I supposed to do?

I don't even know how I really feel for you.

But I sense sadness in my heart

And I know that in this you have played a part.

Of what reason is this sadness, I do not know

Was it the way you sang that brings this sorrow?

But I also wonder if I'm not just overthinking.

If there was no deeper meaning to the songs you were singing.

And if I am really just thinking too much,

is there a way for me to confirm such?

Because I don't think it would affect me this way

But I hope to know more of your story someday.

And if it's true, if you really are still in pain,

why don't you give me a chance to make that feeling wane?

Because I know I wouldn't make you feel that way,

and I wouldn't leave if only you'd ask me to stay.

Your heart would be safe with me,

why don't you give it a try and see?

Though I won't force you to do something you don't want to do,

But know that while you wait for her, I am here, just waiting too.

Once upon a time

Once upon a time

I felt something for you

coz though your words weren't true

all the same, I hoped, even though I knew.

Once upon a time

I felt that way

and though I didn't say

but seeing you really made my day.

That once upon a time

I shall tell you about.

My feelings were without a doubt.

My heart you had captured, it was a rout.

So of that once upon a time,

all this I'd like you to know.

I don't know if it ever did show

but I think it didn't, this I sincerely hope so.

But that once upon a time

has already come to an end.

I knew you were someone I could not bend

so my dear feelings I had to fend.

So that once upon a time

it is long gone

it was a fight that had to be won

and telling you this marks it as done.

The Sun and The Moon

I'm not always selfish.

I don't always put myself first.

I don't always try to keep everything for myself.

I can be selfless too.

Though it is true that I am greedy at times,

But when it comes to the people I care about,

I forget my own desires,

And try my best to provide.

And it may sound cliché and overused,

But I say their happiness is enough for me.

Even if I have to give when I myself do not have much, I will.

For them, I will.

And even if they may not care for me,

Like the way I care for them,

It matters not.

Just being of help to them will suffice.

It doesn't even matter

If they come to me in times of dire need,

Because it could have been none at all,

I am glad enough to be their Moon during the blackest of nights.

And if to say, they love someone else, someone that is their Sun.

I will not stand in their way.

I will be happy for them,

And continue to light their nights when the Sun is not around.

You might call me foolish, or a martyr even,

But the truth is, I'd rather see them happy,

Even if it means I must give up what I long for.

I am willing to make this sacrifice.

You Have No Idea

You have no idea at all, do you?

The effect you have on me

even the little things you do

sends my mind on a confusion spree

When you smile that smile of yours

And the way you have me wondering, hoping.

How you keep me in your magnetic force

even though all I wanna do now is start running.

But you have no idea at all

or maybe you do

and this is you leading me to take the fall

while keeping me from ever reaching you.

Wishful thinking

I know it is my own fault.

Who in their right mind would let themselves fall for a friend?

I knew better than to let it get to this,

But still, I did nothing to avoid what could've been prevented.

What is worse, is I could never tell.

Because I know that it would only complicate matters.

And I also know that you only see me as a friend,

And it is another that you like, another that you seek.

Sometimes I think what if..

And imagine how it would feel.

To capture that love of yours..

To be that apple of your eyes..

But I shouldn't dwell on such ideas.

I shouldn't feed more fodder to my fantasies.

I shouldn't... I really shouldn't.

But I do... And I can't seem to stop myself.

Because in my dreams, I see you and I.

And though it is foolish to wish it so,

Maybe it might even happen, if I wish enough

underneath these stars.

Sweet Rendezvous

I close my eyes, and open it to your face.

Here we are again; Together.

You take my hand in yours, and whisper to me.

The sound of my name from your lips is akin to a caress.

You tell me words that I've always wanted to hear,

And keep me close to you; our hands intertwined.

I give in to the sweet surrender which is your embrace.

..As the world around us slowly drifts away.

But not long until I am forced back to reality,

And have to face the truth that there is no you and me.

I am to live my day, still able to spend it with you,

But not in your arms, not in the milieu of your love.

I have to accept that I am not the one in your heart.

It cannot be I; I am just a friend.

I should be content with whatever we merely are,

'Tis better, than not have anything to do with you at all.

But when the day ends, our rendezvous draws near.

And I visit the only place where there can be a 'you and I'.

It is the place where anything and all are possible.

And here, my desires and fantasies are made real.

Because here in my land of make-believe,

There is an us; You are mine.

And though I know this isn't where I really belong,

I find escape from reality, and close my eyes...again

MATH

Things you can learn in Math.
Math has taught me many wonderful things, but these two lessons stand out the most:
1. Don't ASSUME, unless STATED.
2. Some STATEMENTS should be PROVEN before they are ACCEPTED.
