To Die For

We've certainly made a mess of things.

More like we're stuck in the middle of someone else's mess.

Didn't we choose to be a part of it? Why are we fighting another person's battle?

Perhaps we did. They'll be hear any minute now. We don't stand a chance.

You really think that?

Well, it depends.

What do you mean?

There's a door at the other end.You can get out of here now.

What about you?

I'll hold them down.

Why can't both of just go? Let's go now before they're here!

We'll both be dead then. That'll be no good at all. Especially for you.

Especially for me?

You really love her don't you?

Why are you bringing this up now?

Answer the question.

Yeah. I do.

She's waiting for you on the other side.

She wants to see you, too! She knows you're still alive. It'd make her really happy.

Love is a battlefield. Just like the one we're in. I lucked out once but I know...Lady Luck can't stay by your side forever. Besides, she has you now. I'm not needed.

But...

Look. I lived twice and loved only once but I learned. I learned so much.

Shouldn't you hate me?

Why bother? I have no reason to.

She was yours before all of this.

Exactly. Before all this came crashing down on all of us. I failed, you know? I couldn't protect her. I died trying. I couldn't imagine her wanting to go through all of that again.

No...

Then go. Now.

She just found out you're not dead! It's gonna crush her if you end up gone again...

You know, memories are the fuel that keeps us going. Keeps up living.

What do you mean?

I told you. I lived, loved, and learned. It's just not my time anymore. But I have no regrets. And who knows? Maybe it won't be the end.

It's not fair...

She needs a good guy like you. It's rude to keep her waiting. You can hear them coming, can't you?

I won't forgive myself if you don't make it out of here. See you on the other side.

Heh, no promises. Make her happy again. Make her smile.

The lovers reunite as he safely makes it to the other side. He holds her as she cries tears of joys. As for the other, he fights valiantly against overwhelming odds and dies...without regrets. She may grieve once again as news reaches her but this time, she is not alone. She will not be alone for a very long time. And with him steady at her side, she can once again smile.

Story Of A Girl

This is the story of a girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
And while she looked so sad in photographs
I absolutely love her
When she smiles

Now how many days in a year
She woke up with hope
But she only found tears
And I can be so insincere
Making her promises never for real
As long as she stands there waiting
Wearing the holes in the soles of her shoes
Now how many days disappear
When you look in the mirror
So how do you choose

Your clothes never wear as well the next day
And your hair never falls in quite the same way
You never seem to run out of things to say

[Chorus]

Now how many lovers would stay
Just to put up with this
Every day and all day
Now how did we wind up this way
Watching our mouths for the words that we say
As long as we stand here waiting
Wearing the clothes or the soles that we choose
Now how do we get there today
When we're walking too far for the price of our shoes

Your clothes never wear as well the next day
And your hair never falls in quite the same way
You never seem to run out of things to say

[Chorus]

[Guitar solo]

Well your clothes never wear as well the next day
And your hair never falls in quite the same way
You never seem to run out of things to say

[Chorus]

This is the story of a girl
Who's pretty face she hid from the world
and while she looks so sad and lonely there
I absolutely love her

This is the story of a - girl
Who cried a river and drowned the whole world
And while she looked so sad in photographs
I absolutely love her
When she smiles
When she smiles!

For some reason, this all sounds like something that I could have once related to. Of course, in good faith. Nevertheless, a good song.

What do you think, my only reader? My dear friend?

From The Ashes

I've waited and given the chance again
I'd do it all the same but either way
I'm always out played up on your down days
I left in the right way to start again

Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
Just look at how long I've agreed
Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
Just look at how long I've agreed

Out of place like a gem on a coal face
Lost on the right way, it's all the same
Cause I've had my hopes raised, right in the wrong ways
Scared when you felt safe to start again

Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
Just look at how long I've agreed
Now watch me rise up and leave
All the ashes you made out of me
When you said that we were wrong, life goes on
Just look at how long I've agreed

I sink like a stone, I lost my control
I sink like a stone, I lost my control
I sink like a stone, I lost my control

I don't think I've ever heard a song that resembles so closely to how I've been feeling recently. When will I rise from the ashes? It's too hard to say. Too much bad going on to see any light at the end of the tunnel. I'm so sick of this though...I can't take it anymore. I really just want to give up...I don't want to keep being reminded of how much of a failure I am. I don't want it to be like this.

I'm not ready to just run off of memories yet. There's still a need to make so much more. Sometimes these memories leave a bad taste because they show even what could have been. But memories are just the fuel that keeps the fire running in us. But how much can I take of this?

When will I get my due?

You should never fight your feelings,
When your very bones believe them,
You should never fight your feelings,
You have to follow nature’s law.

Embrace is my hero. Keep on rockin', guys.

I'm riding all my hope till the very end. I won't be disappointed...I won't. I can't lose this all.

Alledgedly, Stendhal Once Said

"A very small degree of hope is sufficient to cause the birth of love."

So it never really hurts to have too much hope. Because there's no harm in having more love in the world. A bigger degree of hope can only cause even more births of  love...so don't give up and keep working at it.

Hope will overcome all despair in the end. So we would all like to hope.

Good day.

Even God Teaches Tolerance

You know what really scare me these days? The unbridled hatred against religion and everything it stands for. It is those who strongly assert themselves as Atheists even when no one ever asked. It almost feels like an attack...it shuts me down even though I know I'm the last person one would get into a heated discussion about religion. Yes, I am Christian. I feel no need to label myself into any denomination. I just like to keep an open mind. Although even I want to express myself...without the risk of being bombarded.

Tolerance. It's a concept that unfortunately many people just refuse to understand. We live in a world of hate. I think that's quite true. When one thing leads to another, there is always something or someone to blame. That blames continues to lead into something else with more blame. People hate Muslims because the 9/11 terrorists were Muslim. Some people are too blinded by the hurt and hate to realize that a single person or a group of people do not represent the whole of the religion. On that topic, Christianity can be blamed for so many things ranging from the Crusades thousands of years ago to the ways the politically conservatives act now.

Christians can leave such a bad taste in people's mouths these days. Honestly, many Christians can be extremely dogmatic, intolerant, and the biggest hypocrites one can ever know. It is because of those overzealous "Christians" that destroyed the image of a perfectly fine religion. And it all comes back to the fact that...we just don't want to listen and give some time to understand. That's why people get so annoyed and upset. They may just not care to hear about the Gospel at the moment but it goes to the point of force feed. That's plain wrong for anything, not just Christianity.

Christianity was never really about the church or having the land under one God. It's supposed to be about the relationship you have with Him. Most of the time people are too busy damning everyone else and trying to force-convince those who really understandably don't want to listen to someone so pushy. I believe in only sharing if they want to listen. How can one learn the Gospel if they care naught of it?

In the end, I think everyone is subject to their own opinion and there's no problem if they stick by it. I personally don't believe an opinion is any good if it's fueled by pure hatred without knowing the whole story. Religion has always been a touchy subject...but these days, it's hardly the "opiate of the masses." So many more people oppose it more than ever. Perhaps I wouldn't have to worry about such a thing if I were to say apply to a Christian college right? Life there would be too sheltered...because in the real world, you're never surrounded by that many like-minded individual. Going to a very liberal high school may have helped come to a middle point and hopefully be able to get through Purchase College just fine. I just want an environment with tolerance.

To sum this all up, as long as we don't push, they won't push back. There will always be disagreements in the end. Sharing the belief is great and all...but the methods used can be far less drastic. Christianity is taking those beliefs, incorporating them into your own life, and creating a relationship with God...it's not what the media is trying to portray it as. But keeping an open mind for what other's think will get you far. Never is good to judge before you know anyone after all.

Maybe I just wish sharing what you believe in wasn't so hard.
