INTOXICATED

sleepless night again

my imagination runs wild tonight,
about life, passion and love,
on my sleepless night...

be it artistry or maladroitness,
be it verve or liveliness,
be it fabrication or dismantlement,
be it realization or failure,
be it fantasy or reality,
be it ecstasy or melancholy,
be it genius or stupidity,
be it fidelity or disloyalty,
be it arrogance or modesty,
be it passion or apathy,
be it attraction or aversion,
be it love and hate...

there's a dialogue between heart and brain going on,
there's a conversation and discussion between soul and mind going on,
there's a debate and argument between feeling and thought going on,
on and on and on and on...

sometimes i wish, i can be selfish and rude...
sometimes i wish, i can just ignore the fact...
and at times i wish, i can just fade away...

why must it arrive when i don't want it?
why must it appear when i don't need it?
why must it be difficult and complicated?
must i choose when i don't have choice?
must i endure, forgo, suffer, surrender and sacrifice?

i said no to love and relationship,
2 best friend came into the picture,
both have their excellence and flaws,
i know the fact that if i choose one of them,
things are not gonna be like before,
let alone better...

should i walk away?
should i stick around?
will it make things better at the end of the day?
will they still be best friend?
can we still be friend?

maybe i should just let it be,
maybe i should just go with the flow,
maybe i should let the time decide,
maybe i should just be me...

Friends are forever for certain kinda people if they really know the true meaning of friendship. Friends and lover...it's two different thing. Follow your heart...that's the truth. Ask yourself....which one of "them" that really loves you. Mere they can be good friends or even siblings...If they respect each other, things would be alright and as for you....You'll get the best of both world...A good friend and a true lover...It's all up to you.

Dear Anonymous... thanks for your advise. at the moment, i am following my heart and it does lead me to somewhere good but sometimes other people action, circumstances and the situation is the main obstacle for me to reach my goal! but then again, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. i will get there... cheers =)

hey fai...
every relationship have its own path to take...
and if the path itself have its own obstacles....
either each path are given up...
or given a new turn....
