le coup de foudre - The Lightning Bolt

(The odds of being hit by le coup de foudre are small, but at least it's not the only way to find true love)

We live in a world of instant gratification and that often means we end up being less satisfied.

Fast food doesn't compare to a meal that took hours to prepare.

Ready-to-wear clothes never fit as well as those that are hand tailored.

So just because a relationship takes some work on the parts of both people to  come together, it doesn't mean that it is filled with any less passion than one that sparked at a first glance.

In the long run, it may actually provide a lot more heat than a relationship that starts off quickly but then peters out just as fast as it began.

ℒℴѵℯ that detonates like an exploding star

can disappear into the cosmos just as quickly.

Love that grows slowly may never burn 

quite as brightly as a supernova,

but it may deliver more energy over the long run.

Remember:It only takes a little spark 

to start a raging forest fire.

->from the book of Dr. Westheimer --"52 Lessons on Communicating Love"

Foolish You

You fooled me once

You fooled me twice

But you can never

Fooled me thrice

It's over and done

So let it be

You can never hold me

For it was our destiny

I loved you once

I loved you twice

But I can't love you

For the third time

Now the feeling's gone

I don't owe you one

Don't make a m0ve

Cause its useless now

Deception

I felt so hopeless for a moment

Sick and reluctant in wilderness

Captured in delight of a stranger felon

Troubled and deceived by his act of kindness

One moment of silence

He was calling my name

And when I glanced

He was dead and gone

Loving From a Distance

I have loved you for so long

Yet my heart can not speak

Tongue tied and coward

Over those years

To remain silent

Was my only ch0ice

For I believe, someday

I would win your heart back

Showing no m0tive

Was a plain excuse

To keep you forever

Even if it hurts so good

I've been trying to tell you

What my heart desires

But I fall apart

Even before I start

Passing by

Thought of you

Slip on my mind

Can't rec0gnize

H0w you capture mine

Undying love

Is what you ask

Forbidden

Imp0ssible task

IN BITTERNESS LIES

Jealousy is a sickness

It is built from within

The root is obsession

Leading to insanity blame

How terrible it is

Living with no peace

Just full of hatred

And a feeling of grief

Unfaithful you

Caused so much strain

Punishing this heart

In crucial pain

Darkness prevails 

In its deceiving face

How can I escape

From your intellectual claims

Only you is the cure

To set a man's soul free
An act of confession

Will satisfy my need

Just let me go

And let it be

This is my fate

We're not meant to be...

UNSPOKEN WORDS

Tongue tied I was when I'm with you

No words to utter 'coz I'm caught up in blue

Blank stare I can do when I'm facing you

There's no way I could ever talk to you

A hundred times I practice my speech

Yet it ended worse 'coz I can't speak

I try again to express myself to you

But you run away before I say go

I want you to feel

What my heart ought to steal

For the pain still goes on

Without you alone

I'm reckoned in despair

Feeling empty with no pair

Got nothing but words

Unspoken and cursed
