What's is left? What's left when there is no rock that's hasn't been turned over. When there is no one else to blame. When you can no longer put the onus on yourself. What are we left with? Dreams? Is that all that we can turn to. I lie there night after night with my eyes shut and the lights off. The silence of night is only interrupted by the occasional passing car and of couse by the conversations I have over and over in my head. The numbers on the clock grow greater and greater everytime I look over. 1,2,2:30,3:15. When oh when I pray will these dreams stop. When will I stop reliving the mistakes and rewriting the never was. Are these dreams or are they fantasies. Does it really matter. They deprive me of my beauty rest(as if I even need it really. "For an asian guy I'm fucking hot") (sorry another side note. I hate to hear that. I want to be attractive just for the sake of being attractive. Not to be qualified as asian. Not that I deny that I am. I guess I just want to be valued for me, not for my ethnic background). These dreams are incomprehensible. The past was ours and is lost forever. We only own the now and we have a chance at a later. So dwelling on what never was or what was unsatisfactory is useless, it only brings a deprivation of my rest. But what about tomorrow? We don't own that either I suppose, nor are we entitled to it. It may or it may not come. But now is here and we own it. So let's get on with things and make due with what we have in our hands. Right now. So tired. So worn. Maybe I'm not as special as they told me.

oh, man, i really know you’re gonna be ok.
you write well, you know. my writing teachers will give you an a for being able to express well with words.
i really know you’re gonna be ok for some reason.
dreams/fantasies are probably important, too… i guess we dream dreams/fantasize because it’s human, only people rarely bring up the topic on why or how we dream what we dream…
ps: thank you for dropping by my humble blog.
i hope it’s ok if i look around.
