It was the day of no screams, despite the nature of events: a “horror” movie and The Return Of The Mouse Part III (3rd part to a trilogy, I hope)

How was yours?

Wish

Thursday, October 27th, 2005

So, so you think you can tell

There was a time when everything felt right,
where everything fit into place
without even needing to try.
There was once a you, once a me.
Time was on our side.
Eternity was our destination.

How I wish you were here

I sense a change, a change from change itself.
It’s there, around the bend.
Its veils are flowing with the winds
of time
carressing you, embracing you
binding you
to me

We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl

The world is spinning again today
watching us
as fiery shades settle into soft hues
let’s spin it again once more
and make all of our todays
settle into better tomorrows

Year after Year

Here is tomorrow
and if they come again
we can tell them
that there was once a you
once a me
but we can show them
that there is now an us
where we don’t need them
anymore

Road to Recovery

Sunday, October 9th, 2005

Moments of silence and prayer for every single victim of the devastation that has struck the Subcontinent in the past 48 hours.

To all those who have survived this tragedy, we have not forgotten you. May God give you the strength and ability to pull through this testing time – you are deeply embedded in our minds and hearts.

Ameen.

Please do not hesitate to contribute; if by no other means, then at least by prayer.

Changes

listening to: Mr. Brightside – the Killers

Before telling me how much I’ve changed, first ask yourself how well you ever knew me in the first place and then,

then,
take a look at the mirror.

You’ve changed too.
