Just when I thought one and one made two, You added into the equation "you". Making a loop, pulling it taut, You entangle my life into a giant knot. I'm waiting for the day you'd tell me 'no', Tell me to leave, tell me to go. But you always treat me with ambiguity, Dowse me... Continue Reading →
Before Sunset
I watched the movie Before Sunset today. I had never heard of this movie before I watched it, and therefore went into it without any expectations. The movie was surprisingly good, and it ranks right alongside Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind as my favourite movie of all time. A fantastic film if you're into... Continue Reading →

My life is like a pendulum on wheels, trudging along. When the pendulum swings back, it feels as if life has stalled, the swinging back negating the effects the forward-moving motion of the wheels provide.

By Concentrating
By concentrating on other activities, one can more or less forget about the longing one feels for another.
Commitment
As she walked away, she looked back at him and saw how sad he was. She had just rejected him, and it was through no fault of his. It was, ironically, that he was almost too good a catch. She felt that she wasn't ready for a long-term commitment, and he wasn't the type you'd... Continue Reading →
