Good times ahead

Got to admit...things had become a little dormant in my life but now i can feel some good change coming.We are in charge of our destiny...good fortune...fun!Ofcourse not all the things that used to excite me still do.Like I was into having a good time with no care in the world but now i just love to chill back,watch a good movie or read an interesting book...u know.I think it's part of growing up,got to just relax, give time to things which matter and make a difference.

Enough of the serious stuff....was to put up the poem...lemme save it for tonight though:)
Now am off to check out the masterpieces i made(did i mention i design??) Might post some of my stuff here...

Got to love Poetry!

Of late i have fallen in love with Lord Byron poems...Although some of the poems I can't uderstand I still feel the depth and emotion behind them(yeah right!)
Here is my current favourite,its sad but i like it either way:

WHEN WE TWO PARTED
by: George Gordon (Lord) Byron (1788-1824)

      HEN we two parted
      In silence and tears,
      Half broken-hearted
      To sever for years,
      Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
      Colder thy kiss;
      Truly that hour foretold
      Sorrow to this.
      The dew of the morning
      Sunk chill on my brow--
      It felt like the warning
      Of what I feel now.
      Thy vows are all broken,
      And light is thy fame:
      I hear thy name spoken,
      And share in its shame.
      They name thee before me,
      A knell to mine ear;
      A shudder comes o'er me--
      Why wert thou so dear?
      They know not I knew thee,
      Who knew thee too well:
      Lond, long shall I rue thee,
      Too deeply to tell.
      I secret we met--
      I silence I grieve,
      That thy heart could forget,
      Thy spirit deceive.
      If I should meet thee
      After long years,
      How should I greet thee?
      With silence and tears.
Sad,...right?It kind of reminds me of one of my poems....(don't be too surprised that i used to be poetic) the good old days when i had a way with words.The last time i wrote was after a heartbreak which was like a gazillion of years ago then i simply quit.Will post that poem tomorrow if i can find it somewhere in this house.

Memories:)

Been sitting here staring at my screen wondering what i should write.....you know life is crazy sometimes,we grow up and just lose our imagination n creativity (which in my case i would blame the 8-4-4 system which focuses on books and ignores talents)
I remember the good old days when I was a kid and we would make toy guns from thick rubberbands and sticks,some guys would make toy cars with wires from hangers (btw do they still make hangers with those iron wires anymore?haha).Now, I bet if you were to be given bottle tops and a piece of wire you wouldn't know where to begin.
All this flash back just reminded me of some of the stupid stuff we used to do as kids-eating britania bisciuts then leaving the middle part that read "BRITANIA" so that we can eat the letters one by one.>>>can't believe that used to be fun<<<
what about fitting in a tyre( big enough to fit your tiny frame) then your friends would push it.Everyone had their turn in there...tried it once...or was it twice.hmmm....all I can say it was both fun and terrifying...During the rainy season when we would go "fish" in pools of water then feed what we got with bread and biscuit crumbs not knowing what we thought were little fishies were actually tadpoles and they would die within 24 hrs from starvation.

Someone should have told us that growing up sucks....no fun,just facts.We get our hearts broken,have to work to maintain our desired lifestyle...sleep late and wake up early...lose friends along the way...

Either way,this life is what we make it..we can't get back the innocence of childhood but we can make it great and fun as we want it to be.:)
