The void

You know how it is when the feelings come in waves, surging, relentless, pounding again and again. Disappointment, resentment, indignation, discontentment, embitterment, frustration, anger, fury.

Then it comes to a point when you are so tired of it all.
When the only thing you want to do is to escape from all of it.
"Run." They whispered.
"Leave." They called softly.
"Fly!" They urged.
You close your eyes and hear them.
You imagine them welcoming you with open arms.
All you want to do is to give in to their temptations.
Tantalizing, beautiful, seductive things.

All you want is to feel nothing. Even if it means giving up feeling happy.

It's my birthday!

Yeah, that's right. :)

The photographer

From behind my lens, I noticed your pursed lips.
From behind my lens, I caught the twinkle in your eyes.
From behind my lens, I saw your coy smile.
From behind my lens, I watched your every nuance.
But not once did you regard me, from behind my lens.


Footnote: Actually I had this written a long time ago but it was just sitting in my word document. :P

In other news, my birthday is just around the corner. Not that I am stressing about it. Nah, I don't feel a thing about getting older (unlike some women). I'm cynical, to me it's just a step closer towards death. Bleh. Talk about HAPPY birthdays. Haha.

And oh I can't even find a nice new Gucci bag to buy so I guess I have to settle for this.

Gucci's newest perfume. Present anyone? :)


Coach launched their newest range of bags and I just love this new one! But I have too many gold bags so I had to force myself to give this a miss... 'Sad' just doesn't even cut it!
