Dysfunctional Dreamer

The silence is deafening.
but somehow, comforting.
i hear my thoughts aloud,
and it forces me to deal with my pain.
or does it serve as a reminder
that the pain is real?
I don't know.

What to say? You never know when love truly begins, but you always know when it ends.

Sarah Mclachlan- Do What You Have To Do

What ravages of spirit
Conjured this temptuous rage
Created you a monster
Broken by the rules of love
And fate has led you through it
You do what you have to do
And fate has led you through it
You do what you have to do ...
And I have the sense to recognize that
I don’t know how to let you go
Every moment marked
With apparitions of your soul
I’m ever swiftly moving
Trying to escape this desire
The yearning to be near you
I do what I have to do
The yearning to be near you
I do what I have to do
But I have the sense to recognize
That I don’t know how
To let you go
I don’t know how
To let you go
A glowing ember
Burning hot
Burning slow
Deep within I’m shaken by the violence
Of existing for only you
I know I can’t be with you
I do what I have to do
I know I can’t be with you
I do what I have to do
And I have sense to recognize but
I don’t know how to let you go
I don’t know how to let you go
I don’t know how to let you go

Unsound State Of Mind

Sometimes emotional pain becomes physical, like a someone squeezed the life out of you,and your heart wrenches in unison. And sometimes the pain numbs you. And sometimes if just fucking hurts. To be brave, I try to be strong. In the solace of my bedroom walls, uncontrollable fits, whispered curses,...make their way around. The hand that used to hold mine, doesn't feel like it wants to anymore. Perhaps it was never for my keeping.I'm on a rollercoaster that is about to derail.

What am I to do?
I can only sit and watch it fall into pieces and combust before me.

Wednesday- My First Brush With Theatre

Yes, last Wednesday was my first official theatre experience. It was good, considering that I didn't pay for the tickets, which were given to me by my housemate, Dominic, who works as a lighting engineer at the Lyceum Theatre which shows the Lion King. Went with Paolo and we had two extra tickets and since the other two housemates were not interested, I gave them to Hector and Melanie. The seats were pretty good, and Dominic even took us backstage to the make-up room,look at the costumes, the puppets and even showed us how the stage works! It was amazing,definately enriched my experience. It was an eye-opener, even though I knew the story from Disney, the live music and puppets were *wow*...ingenius creations?
It lasted all of three hours, and I am pretty impressed that even Paolo stayed seated throughout the whole thing. All in all, it was a good experience, and considering that the tickets normally cost £50 onwards, we saved a hell lot of moolah.



Melanie works at Snappy Snaps, and she had developed my three rolls of film from New York for half price...and that means a lot to me. They turned out better than I expected, and perhaps if I am able to use the scanner sometime tomorrow, I might post them up, if I don't forget...

I am due to write an essay on text and image. My current discovery and obsession: David Shrigley.
I just love the humour, but you decide for yourselves. (:
