immobilized by the thought of you
paralyzed by the sight of you
hypnotized by the word you said
not true but I believe them anyway

I’m full of regret
for all the things
that I’ve said and done!

and I don’t know
if it will be ever OK to show?
I tried to laugh but I cried instead
and I wonder

… how does it feel to be different from me?

Thanks to Nash for support and engcouragement to my passion in art!


Purple People by Tori Amos

well hey do you do Judo when they surround you
a little mental yoga will they disappear
it's grim but never dubious as motives go
one thing she'll always promises
promises is a show

thunder wishes it could be the Snow
wishes it could be as loved as she can be
these gifts are here
for her, for you, for me.

I watch me be this other thing and never know
if I'm marooned or where the purple people go
then lily white matricide from vicious words
it doesn't leave a scratch
so therefore no one's hurt

and don't you know the nurses make it clear
just when you've escape you have yourself to fear
a restaurant that never has to close
breakfast, every hour
it could save the world

so hey do you do Judo in your finery
an angel's face is tricky to wear constantly

thunder wishes it could be the Snow
whishes it could be as loved as she can be
these gifts are here
for her, for you, for me.

For her, for her...

touch her, hold her, and caress her
kiss her, hug her, and love her
talk to her, listen to her and share with her
dine with her, dance with her

cuz she’s everything a person need
… but nothing last forever!

I see the ocean under the sun
I hear weaves that comes rolling in

I sail into that big sky
I rip on the wind

I watch mild birds sweep and glide
I forget about the time

I linger just a little more, drifting on the foreign shore
I spend my nights, waiting out the tides

FALLEN I

Fallen by Sarah McLachlan

heaven bent to take my hand and lead me through the fire
be the long awaited answer to a long and painful fight
truth be told I've tried my best

but somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
and the cost was so much more than I could bear

though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
better I should know
so don't come round here

and tell me I told you so...

we all begin with good intent
love was raw and young
we believed that we could change ourselves
the past could be undone

but we carry on our backs the burden
time always reveals
the lonely light of morning
the wound that would not heal
it's the bitter taste of losing everything
that I have held so dear.

I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
better I should know
so don't come round here
and tell me I told you so...

heaven bent to take my hand
nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
to everyone I know
oh they turned their heads embarrassed
pretend that they don't see
but it's one missed step
you'll slip before you know it
and there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed

This is the first piece that I’m experimenting with linseed oil, turpentine to mix and dilute that oil paint. And also different ways of handling the brush stroke, the mixture of colours and all the medium.

And of course, RETRO is back in this era!

So, it’s my imperfection… my learning experience!

sleepless night again
in one of the darkest room
stuffed with sadness, regrets, pain and anger
feelings miserable, melancholy
… and helpless

absence is unfair
nothing can ever replace what I miss
its certainty deceiving
cause love has fooled me
… once again

she hurt me till I’m bleeding
she locked me away
and she said goodbye
… and fly away

oh well!
there’s a light at the end of the tunnel
… I heard

so I …
set my heart stone cold
wake up, get back in control
get a grip and begin the trip.
