I’m sitting beside my window sill,
Watching smoke swirl against my will.
Golden rays flooding in through a half-open window,
I can’t believe my life is just too slow.
Dreams and ashes falling between my fingers like snow flakes,
Cold and numb, dwelling on old crushes and heart aches.
I don’t wanna die young, even thoughts tastes sour,
How the hell did I wind up like this? I don’t even want to hear her sing once more.
I’ll get around breaking the habit, but for now the story is played out like this,
Someday I will, but not right now. Why weren’t I able to see the chances I miss?
I’m gonna make it all right, someway, somehow,
I want to rewrite everything I’ve messed up; but not right now.
Each time I lite one more, Does all my life turn to a joke?,
I swear to do it never again, each day as I watch my life go up in smoke.

Well, here it is. I’ve waited a whole two months for this day. Its an LG X-note Lappy, which isn’t exactly what I had in mind but atleast it will let me be with my friends and readers again. The configuration is pretty weak, with a RAM of just 256MB & graphics of 128MB. I just got it today and since my broadband connection hasn’t been approved yet, I’m using an EDGE data line through a Nokia N73. I’m gonna get a new Wi-Fi router and plug into a broadband connection by next week.

- I’ve always wanted to use this title.
I just wish I never had an almost perfect life.
Another turn and I’m just a boy stuck in the road. Time grabs & drags you along directions you never knew. So I’ve always made the best out of it without asking why. I’ve always poured over the ultimate question; the meaning of life, which -I’m sure- is a question asked by each and every one of those who have been blessed -or cursed- with the gift of free thought. As summers & winters pass you by, you realize that life is not a question, but a lesson learned in time!
Life is always something unpredictable -cruel to some- fair to the rest. Personally, I think my life has always offered me with enough opportunities and choices, of which; some can even be considered too luxurious. I’ve missed out on some, but still - I’m just too lucky, compared to most of my fellow beings. Time moves so fast, the innocent can never endure the cruel and unforgiving world.
