TUESDAY THOUGHTS

According to the news, there's another typhoon coming into the country. I suppose I'll have to prepare materials for the boys, just in case we'll have to stay indoors again for several days. I don't want them to be bored in here. I'm quite sure we'll be able to think of something to do (as always) but there's no harm in being prepared, is there?

.....

Just finished watching the latest Monk episode. I really love watching this tv series. It's just very entertaining and I just love Tony Shalhoub as Adrian Monk. He is just so funny. Can't wait for the next episode.

.....

August is halfway over. Still can't believe how time flies when you're not paying attention. Next month I'll be hearing Christmas carols on the radio once more.

Can't wait.

.....


Many things in my mind flitting about

Emotions running wild, can't sort them out.

I sigh, I cry, I can't explain

How I ended up with this pain.

I wonder how I can be taught once more

to trust this someone like I did before.

SHARING A POEM ON A SAD NIGHT...

SAGA OF MY TEARS
by Derrick T. Pike


I sit all alone in this room
As memories unfold

Tears streaming down my face again
This pain never grows old

Some say it's a state of mind
But it's my heart that really hurts

I only aim to please you all
But what's a smile really worth?

This is the story of my life
The saga of my tears

A story told a thousand times
Remade over the years

If you listen up closely
Maybe you might hear

The beating of my heart
And the saga of my tears

They say that life's a trip
I hit the ground face first

Lost everything I ever wanted
But it could have been worse

Or that's what they tell me
Do they sit alone in the dark?

Or stare into broken mirrors
Thinking it's the pieces of their heart

This is the story of my life
The saga of my tears

A story told a thousand times
Remade over the years

If you listen up closely
Maybe you might hear

The beating of my heart
And the saga of my tears

This is the saga of my tears
A saga that never ends

This is the saga of my tears
That fall from cheeks til the end
