Forgotten

I remember when I was a young boy
Nothing really ever mattered to me
I would take each day as it came my way
You know children live for the moment

I remember the first girl I kissed
I remember when grandma insisted i came inside
When she'd say come in for the night
You know tomorrow will be another day

Do you remember when youth used to be a friend
Do you remember when comfort was
in never understanding
Comfort was in never understanding

Do you know what i mean?

Do you remember the way that it used to be?
Full of innocence, so alive, life was carefree
Tt was so good then, hangin' out with your best friend
You float wherever you wanted to

Do you remember your first true love?
Do you ever wonder if she ever
thinks of the times when you
used to walk home from school
And say tomorrow will be another day

Come along to the place we once lived
Touch the things that made us happy
Find the child that lives within

Come along

You know it's alright to go back there
Touch the things that made us happy
Look for the days that were so fair

Come along

And you know that it goes without sayin'
There's a child deep inside always playin'

There's a child always playing

  4. i don't know what's going on with the comments section. it works fine for me..?

    what time are you online? my schedule doesn't match your schedule there sa Pinas, and it will be all over the place starting this October. i think it's best to message instead of chat. i can check my messages anywhere anytime but i can't attend to chat all the time.

    you'll be okay - whatever it is you're going through :) maybe take up a different interest other than online and gambling lol

  5. Thanx for the vote of confidence. It certainly made me feel better.

    I am taking some time off from work. I just worked a shift today and Ill be resting for he next two days. Ill be spending that time to clean up my room, i guess. It has been a mess lately. Hopefully I will sort out the mess inside my head, too.

    I plan to spend less time online. I've downloaded some audiobooks to my cp. That should keep me preoccupied.

    And in my free time I will scribble on my notebook. Writing the old fashioned way. :-p

    I have started some entries. Just random thoughts. They are incoherent and premature, at best. Reminds me of Marcus in Underworld after Selena gave him a rude awakening with a drink of her blood.

    Hope to catch you soon.

  6. Funny, I was reading about Amy Tan right before I read your blog. I did read an excerpt from her book Joy Luck Club. The book provided some insight into Chinese or Asian culture. As a "coming of age" book, though, I have to say it pales in comparison to "To Kill a Mockingbird."

    I wanted to post the entry above as a comment on your blog. There should be a scroll bar at the right side of the text space that I can use to scroll down and revel the text box for the word verification. I tried in vain to look for the invisible bar. I have to post my comment here.

  7. ah no wonder walang nagko-comment sa blog ko hehe it's alright. i don't know what you're talking about (books) - I don't read books! (tamad). Didn't read Joy Luck Club but saw the movie.

    cleaning your room is good. that will give you a chance to think while cleaning. hehehe. hey that always works for me. then again i'm a very organized person, and you're probably not as organized as I am. still, it would help you sort things out if your home is not a mess :)

    funny i thought you always knew what you wanted in life, yet you find yourself "lost". i personally don't know what i want, but i'm constantly searching and probing, that's probably why I find myself less "lost" - if you know what i mean. plus in any situation, it always helps if you know in the back of your mind that you have a back-up plan :)

    i'll blog about the "something" that I am working on later down the road. maybe soon. i'm just really busy these days.

  8. I am sorry to hear that your cat is sick.15 years is such a long time. If she was a child she would be in high school now.

    I never had a pet that long. Then again I never had a cat that I can call my own. Cats in our house sort of come and go as they please. No permanent address.

    I hope your cat gets well. So that you can have your cat longer.

  9. thanks :)
    yes, 15 years is a long time. she probably has 5 more years, or 10 if she stays healthy. to us she's still a baby although obviously she is already a Senior cat. she's a member of the family na (even included in the yearly christmas family pictures hehe). we would mourn if she dies. sigh. i dont want to think abt it. i'm picking her up tomorrow, hopefully there's some good news.

    evrything is clear now. i got the answer to my questions. it came as an unexpected but welcome barrage of text messages.
