Sometimes it's all abt perspective....

hi...sorry havent blogged in...hmm...a few day..ahah..but recently have been really busy..not mugging but more like super sian haha..so think i am going to fail my exams ...oh well..haha..anyway...recently god has changed my perspective of life..it is really surprising how a single event can change the complexity of a relationship, be it good or bad-truth is it either assentuates the differences or , in my case, make our similarities seem all the more obvious..haha...too much said already...haha..wish me luck for exams...

anyway...here's a beautiful poem titled simply

"ten tears"

when i cry my ten tears during the day
wishing things went a different way
i think of the one person who ever cared
and the one person who was always there
and one less teardrop fell from my face

when im thinking of those 9 tears i still had to cry
and all i did was sat there and questioned why
i thought of that day when you held my hand
and when you told me all the time that to you i was grand
one less teardrop fell from my eye

when i squatted down real low and an 8th tear fell
and all i could think about was how my life was in hell
i thought of how you would tell me to stay strong
and i thought of how much i've loved you all along
one less teardrop fell from my nose

when i lied on my bed and 7 tears poured out
and all i could do was scream and shout
i thought of how you were always by my side
helping me, holding me close, along for the ride
and one less teardrop fell from my lip

when i cried my 6 tears at night
and everything consumed me and i was consumed with fright
i looked at your picture and smiled real big
thinking of how i joked with you, calling you a pig
one less teardrop fell from my chin

when i was running and tripped my 5 tears started to fall
and you told me it was okay and you gave me your all
i looked at you and knew i was going to be okay
not by what your face said but the things you always used to say
one less teardrop fell from my ear

when i was getting yelled at and 4 tears begun to fall on the floor
and when my parents slapped me and i ran for the door
i stopped and thought how you loved me so much
and how you helped me up like a crutch
one less teardrop fell from my hair

3 tears fell as i was getting made fun of right in my face
and i felt as if i had no one to love in this place
i cowered and thought of you and i
and how we shared tears together, how we cried
one less teardrop fell from my peachy red cheek

2 tears fell as if gravity took over me
hoping, wishing and thinking i would never be happy
i just sat and thought how much i loved you so
and how much i would never want to let you go
one less teardrop fell from my flesh

1 more tear fell as i thought of my family
and all the wonderful things we could have had
i thought of how you would give me your life
just to take away my pain and my strife
no more teardrops fell from my eye...

it is the most beautiful poem i've ever read,bar none...and written my dearest friend and brother, gw... i'm not like some ppl who just place it on their blog and not acknowledge the author....haha....but get through it...brings tears to my eyes everytime...

hope you'll enjoy it...
