When I was 20, i was obsessed with the business look. Dress pants and dress shirts. Striped.
My gf at the time used to always try to get me to be more 'slacky'. haha.
I can remember one time we went to BR, and she got slippers, boxer shorts and a white T for me.
I don't know why but at the time, I wanted to look older, prim, proper etc. Isn't it interesting how when we are younger, we want to be older, but when we're older (much), we want to look younger?

Life. Ain't it grand?

I remember one woman who I had the biggest crush when I was 20.
She was the subject of my many amateur poems, and letters.
She was not superior in physical beauty,
Modest beauty, I would say,
but the way she carried herself,
presented herself,
It would steal my attention undoubtedly.

I have never met a woman who was just so..Good..
She exuded goodness, passion and positivity.
Oh how i was heartbroken when i found out,
that she was being courted by another man.

I was too timid in my youth.
My angel was taken away.

She had a voice like an angel.
Like an angel...

Ah, reminiscence..

That is something i had to learn the hard way, Anna.

For a long time, i really questioned this notion of ' the right love' kai for a while i was lost.
Too many women came and went, invested upon, some i just played with (and i admit this), too many cries, too many tears, questions of why.
So much that I was numbed to it.

And you know..in the end, it does hit you. Love does come knocking on our door.

And it is only when I actually feel 'Love' that I felt guilt for the hearts I hurt.
But i had to legitimize things, rationalize things.
I could not give them what they want nor give them what i did not have.
They wanted to be loved as they loved; per...that is the thing. I did not love them as they did.
And in my view, had i 'tried' to love them and forced myself...still it would not have happened.
So, better to cut losses and let it go, than to make them wait..and hurt them longer.

One thing i learned is this: We cannot force ourselves to think, believe or love something that we really do not.

Life's many quirks.

Mo express ko,

It was April 2007, I was sitting in front of a bonfire with Anne. Her hand holding mine, her thumb caressing my palms. I felt wretched.
The reasons for this is because i knew this girl since i was a freshman in college, been long friends with her. I used to meet up with her in Ford Chapel (non-denominational church chapel in college) to read poems, write notes, jokes, share feelings and thoughts of the day, release angst of post-exam furies,..

I knew that she liked me and expressed it during 2nd year, but I shrugged it off and told her that I wanted to keep our relationship simply platonic. Strictly friendship. For if I bed with her, everything would change. So i stayed course.

Many months later, she went abroad to study in Japan, then to the UK, and kept in touch by letter or by infrequent emails. On our last year of college she came back to campus and we hit it off. It was apparent to me in our dates that this girl still liked me, her eyes spoke a thousand words...i guess it was my foreign look that made her appeal; as well as her Swedish looks that I found interesting. A good heart. But the fallacy of it all is that i never really loved her.

And on that April, she professed her love for me. I cried in side because i knew that i could not give her what she expressed, i tried, but i could not. And with sad sighs, i told her....

I watched her smile, and her soft touch removed from me. And seeing her tears roll down her cheeks..it was like a knife to my heart.

Forgive me, Anne.

Forgive me...

i miss your smile.
