dear delilah








Fathers, be good to your daughters; daughters will love like you do.

you are the strength and the weight of her world

Stream her with roses and daisies, dear mother,
let all that she speak be all that that she hears.
For no higher, no higher let her forehead doth grow;
and so dote, dote my mother, my mother so dear
and let her run free with a conscience so clear

obscure

There is something you can't not love about being obscure.


This blog is somewhat a descendant from The Black Room, a website that no one goes to. That's on wordpress though. I much prefer blogspot.

I've tried so hard to be so many people. The artist, the vocalist, the tomboy, the goth, the extremely-emo, the novelist, the rebel, the non-conformist. I guess, all throughout I remained only one thing - the hyprocrite. While claiming to be different, or a non-conformist, I only do so to be able to infuse into a place in our society that treasures such people. But that is not me.

I'm realising myself, day by day. Its heart-breaking, realising how hard it is to know yourself. But reading between the lines is all there is. Because if you don't, chances are no one else will.


I love Joy Luck Club, because there is so much I can relate to, even if I don't have a mother-daughter relationship to treasure. Like Ying-ying St. Clair, I am slowly losing myself. Like Ying-ying, I know that there is something more, something better that I once was.

But unlike her, I will not lose faith. I will be like Lindo, and fight to regain what was once mine. Just because they gave me away, doesn't mean I have to give myself away.

But it is a touch-and-go period. All I can do now is to try. Wait. And hope that the Lord will reveal soon, what is hidden.

he told me that I've done alright
and kissed me till the morning light
