ANTONG: THOUGHTS

see the happy faces? never once during the trip complained, oh it's so far, let go back to ground zero. everyone is excited as i am... tho' it's ohh-so-forsakenly-hot, still we moved on... just to reach our goal and destination... in life we complain, why and why at all times... hardly we notice that as we go on our way, we grow and mature... that when we turn back and do the descent without completing the ascent, we lose... we will never know what is in store for us there... at the top

going up is the real challenge. there are lots of stones, and boulders along the way. the road is rough, and the heat is scorching. but when you get there at the top, there is the essence of fulifillment and you could say, YES I MADE IT.... you can enjoy the pristine and serene scenery, you can gorge on the cool wat...er and dip yourself to its soothing embrace.... such also is life... such is our trip to 

Antong

on the way to the top, i had a cut on my feet, but i still have to go on and on and on... as far as my feet leads me... climbing the stones is an addiction that i can't let go... just like my addiction to coffee and friendship... it's hard to let go, let someone go... especially when you have found serenity... like Antong...

many years have come and gone, but then i kept on going back to you/ are you the one destined for me, you just say so/ love might be blind but i saw the beauty in you/ too bad when LOVE has finally come, yet i couldn't have you....

i will always return to the love we once shared/ those were the happiest moments this lifetime has made/ but then as time goes on spinning to a speed/ the distance between me and you seems to just fade/

you are the beauty unnoticed once, but now prominent/ you hold the coldness that is so permanent/ you might fade away but only time will tell/ when tha time comes to fore, be there, i will...

...would you rather stay silent, not to sing with glee?/ singing the songs of forgotten melody/ i have listened to your songs, and the rasping of the leaves/ makes me wonder why God has given you the voice as sweet as this/

at last, i have found you once again in your nest/ the love affair that we once had would never rest/ would you still accept me if ever i propose?/ or dump me at your own dispose?/
love never fades in me, and so i know/ that only time and distance made it so/ love is still strong, love is still here/ i will shout it to the world for all i care/
