just something i thought i should share with my labs...

listening to: some r n' b song
feeling: hungry and sleepy... ay! labo! hahahahahaha

"girl how can i get you in my ride, who's gonna drive you home tonight?"

i read this poem years ago and i was so happy to come across it again...

i found it in this book i bought the other day, it was something i tripped on lang.

hahahaha.

it's surprising to find out that sometimes, there really IS treasure amongst basura. . . hehehe.

nice to realize that simple things can still make me feel good.

sharing lang.



After A While. . .

After a while you learn
the subtle difference between
holding a hand and chaining a soul
and you learn
that love doesn't mean leaning
and company doesn't always mean security.
And you begin to learn
that kisses aren't contracts
and presents aren't promises
and you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes ahead
with the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child
and you learn
to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow's ground is
too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down
in mid flight.
After a while you learn
that even sunshine burns
if you get too much
so you plant your own garden
and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone
to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure
you really are strong
you really do have worth
and you learn
and you learn
with every goodbye, you learn.
