Normal is...
justbesplendid:
Normal is: 1. Anything that makes us forget who we are and what we want; that way we can work in order to produce, reproduce, and earn money. 2. Setting out rules for waging war (the Geneva Convention). 3. Spending years studying at university only to find out at the end of it all that you’re unemployable. 4. Working from nine till five every day at something that gives you no...

one last thing
there is one last thing i need you to do for me. i need you to be strong for me. i need you to walk away and let me heal. if you don’t want me, i need you to cut away ties other than friendship. i don’t want you to disappear from my life. i need you to treat me like a normal friend. as normal as possible.
unlike others, i can’t say “all i want for christmas is you”....

YES. dammit.
it's not you.
i’m sorry. i can’t bend the rules with you. i can’t do the things i do with him with you. i can’t give you my heart. because awhile ago, i gave my heart away. the person has battered my heart and thrown it away. i have no idea where it is now. i can’t give you something i ceased to possess. i’m sorry. it’s not you (as what they always say). it’s me.

Despite the lack of festivity and merry making, I’m happy. Surprisingly. Oh sure, I enact those outwardly Christmas-y acts and so on: The bombarding of Christmas greetings, gift exchange, the shaking of hands with strangers. It seems that these rituals are placed to emphasize the real-ness of the season, that there is indeed a reason for this season. It is more than just pure hype and...

To tell you the truth. If you’d change your mind about the whole thing, about us, I’d say yes. A thousand times over. Because you’ve made me feel such intense feelings that I never felt for anyone before. I was never so willing to give so many things before,...

some wishes do come true
So I saw you again. My gaze met your familiar bulging eyes, and a shadow of recognition crossed my face. I turned away before you could meet my gaze. I peered behind one of the white pillars, to look at the guy I was once with in my JC days.
You look quite different now. You adopted this bohemenian look, unruly curls enveloping the sides of your face. Edgy feel. Very different from the neat hair...
