can't let thursday through.

Catching me off guard, he was there. Holy shit wasn't he ecstatic, he couldn't hide the excitement on his face while I struggled to even feel. A flashback rushed into my mind and some sense knocking from the back of it, I started to remember things I no longer wonder about. I'm not into reliving the past, my feelings aren't meant for anyone but me, my story's unknown, I put on a facade and my heart's mine to care for. I've seen that grin, I've believed things were sincere once, I believed in the existence of nice guys too perhaps, however what was, never really is, so what would be, I find it hard to believe in. 

I didn't ask for this. This isn't for me.

I'm only here to stay, to watch them go. Often than not they do. None proved otherwise and I've got no heart left to let anyone try. I am not me, I am who they've moulded me into, only colder now. Yet I still love, sometimes, maybe, perhaps- one day. I asked why me? He shrugged his shoulders not knowing but I knew, I swear this isn't love, he's just blinded by what he thinks he feels. As so did everyone before him. Love doesn't exist with me. 

So I could never love him.

god's magic.

It's funny sometimes how the universe works,
and tremendously amazing how God does it all.

With nothing on my mind, I noticed him.
Somehow, for some reason I saw.
Beside him, there she was-

The rest, history.

With all honesty,
I felt nothing at all the moment I saw,
everything, no more.

-riri-

nothing more, but much more.

Forgive me for the moments I lack emotions,

feelings, sympathy, empathy.

I was built into this.

-riri-

you never answered.

Even if we were arguing, the least you could do is pick up the phone when I need you the way I would bloody do if you ever needed me. Anything could happen anytime that if you wouldn't even do that for me because you somehow felt like it, then don't even bother being with me. I know how it feels like, I've been put at that state, I've been left when all I needed was at least someone, anyone at all, and I'm not in it for this shit. I'm done with that.

-Though I can never say.

-riri-

lets just stay a lie.

Picking up the pieces,
collecting new old people,
creating new tales,
living another life,
the old but now different.

I take the nice, I take the new,
I take the fucked, I take the sad,
I'll take it all including,
you.

I said run, before I run over you.
Run, before I catch you.
Run before I fall,
before I fall for you.
I said run, so that I won't.

Then again I've been loving everyone.
So who the fuck are you?

another 5 am.

3 days straight, 2 days great.

These days Sundays, are our days.

Last time it was 3, this time a bit early. I don't know how we start out conversations I just know that I can talk honestly with him. The first time it was about work, the clothes we tried, our boss, the new guy, his car, us getting high, food, a cockroach, the thing going on in front of us we were so eager to know about but had no clue off, the mamak, digi, Manjung, and us cracking up with him being called kafir and pendosa the whole night. Home by 5, we've a party to attend the next day.

There was Emal and Sya, Syafiq and us it was all good until life came around knocking.

I had it covered, I always have to cover. I just wanted tomorrow to come so we could hang again.

8 to 10 and time seemed to be a sloth; we were half dead and starving. Finished our job waited till about 2. I'm a bit fucked up I said. We talked about Emal and Sya, guys, relationships, mosquitoes, the past, what's going to be, durian, Ramadhan, food, yes food, we were starving remember? It was mostly food. Shopping, going on break, dip n dip, chocolates, sweets, coffee, ice cream, Brandon, Nasrul, Starbucks, Coffee Bean, the new guy, the mamak still, yes the mamak still, celebrating the arrival of his car and eulala by kokopelli, stars, the absence of the moon, how hot it was and the night sky.

Since the night I fell on the table all I've been calling today is Nick.

He's probably all I talk about or who I talk to the most these days when he's there.

Laughing at Nick's "mereka" and "kami". We spent about half an hour deciding what to eat just to end up talking about other things then back again at what to eat."Nick jom makan""Jom, mana?" "Mamak jelah yang buka lagi right now. What do you want to eat?" " I don't know I nak nasi you know like food" "I nak nasi goreng tom yam." "What the f is that?" and me explaining until the next time we asked each other again he says he wants nasi goreng tom yam and me rolling my eyes at this guy that had no clue what it was a few minutes ago. Public transport, Bangsar, banana leaf, chocotop, another crack night (morning as he says it) with Nick. One mamak, two McDonalds, 7e, chocolates, ice creams, nasi goreng, maggi sup and lyf3.

"Abang jemput lambat sebab ada Nick. Aku percayakan kau Nick."

Another early sahur. Another 5 am. Another moment to remember. To live for.

-riri-

hook, line & sinking.

They say get to know a person better before deciding to commit.

My mistake's always falling, before I'm sure they're going to be there to catch me.

When I really do, it's never any different.

So screw thes promises I've heard and made.
Things are always going to be the same.

-riri-

misguided ghost.

We lock our doors thinking our ghosts aren't able to seep through if we do, when they do anytime if they want to. That is just what certain people really are. Another ghost you haplessly attempt to lock out of your life thinking they'll never just slip back in to learn that they always do as if you subconsciously wanted them. Put it in the back of your mind as if it's dismissed from you conscious mind, without wholly cutting it off. It goes when you stop believing.

Better off having it cease to exist.

This is never what you needed.
