Only a Friend

I waited patiently
for you to recover,
I gave you time
to heal your wounds,
I lend you my ears
to unburden your sorrows,
I offered you laughter
to make you smile,
I hold your hand
to be your friend,
I am sorry that
my friend hurt you
If only I can ease your pain
and soothe your broken heart,
If only I can mend it
and put it back together
piece by piece.
I can’t say I know how you feel,
But I can feel your sadness
And know what you’ve been through.
Don’t worry, my dear
You’ll never get lonely,
I’ll be here beside you
to hold your hand,
give you my time,
lend you my ears,
offer you laughter,
and be your friend.
Smile with me,
cry with me,
share your thoughts,
your goals and dreams.
I’ll be here
beside you,
as your friend.

What I feel right now

I see thine image through my tears tonight
By
Elizabeth Barrett Browning

I see thine image through my tears to-night,
And yet to-day I saw thee smiling. How
Refer the cause?–Beloved, is it thou
Or I, who makes me sad? The acolyte
Amid the chanted joy and thankful rite
May so fall flat, with pale insensate brow,
On the altar-stair. I hear thy voice and vow,
Perplexed, uncertain, since thou art out of sight,
As he, in his swooning ears, the choir’s amen.
Beloved, dost thou love? or did I see all
The glory as I dreamed, and fainted when
Too vehement light dilated my ideal,
For my soul’s eyes? Will that light come again,
As now these tears come–falling hot and real?

I’ll be your sister and friend
By
Chubby

Past few days was like a whirlwind,
I tried to stay calm and grounded,
But in the end, I was left wounded,
By the aftermath of liking you too damn much,
I know now how you feel towards me,
The earlier, the better for me to unwind,
I am left with a shell of emptiness,
I thought I could believe myself in love again,
But again, I was wrong…
Don’t worry, I’ll stay beside you
I will still be your ’sister and friend’.

Blooper!

July 19, 2008 – I went to our office earlier than I expected, let’s just say i am excited to go to the office nowadays, *wink* if someone would ask me why i am early, i would say “figure it out” and smile mysteriously. I was updating my clients tasks minding my own business and totally focused on my work when “HD” suddenly IM me. My reaction? Surprise, hmm.. why IM me, he sent me a message that our BB’s would like to talk to us, one by one for 10 mins. Duh? I freeze up, I was scared to talk to the BB’s, I ask HD what topic are we going to talk, HD answered anything. I was figuring out what were the possible questions that will be thrown at me, when CY told me that she’s having palpitations and sweating palms by thinking about the one on one with the BB’s. I told her it’s okay, we can do this and reassure ourselves there will be no problem answering the BB’s questions. When it was my turn to go inside the conference room, HD introduced me to the BB’s while shaking hands with them. I sat down immediately on the chair that was offered but to my utter shame I halfway fell down on it. Luckily, I held on to the armchair to prevent myself from falling into the floor. The BB’s cracked a joke about the chair flying, and I laughed, I was thinking, if there is laughter the interview would be a piece of cake. The interview was okay, I survive. CY told me later that HD was laughing because of me, HD saw me falling halfway down the chair. Grrr…. how embarrassing, but later on I realized it’s okay it happened to me since I made him laugh, i love to see him smile since for the past few days I rarely saw him smiling. *aaawwww* how sweet! char! hahahah…. After we had our 1 on 1 interviews we took pictures… yehey! I got 1 picture together with HD, hahahaha (naka dare gud ko). After the BB’s left together with HD, we took pictures again, i laughed so hard because everybody was running everywhere to have their pictures taken. What a night, people were in high spirits and everybody were laughing. I love hearing and seeing them laugh, it makes my day a special one. I can’t wait for the pictures to be posted, I would definitely be expecting it.

Back to NORMAL?!

July 17, 2008 – Yehey! Friday is fast approaching, i can’t hardly wait to get back to my NORMAL self! It’s been awhile i’ve crack some jokes, tease my officemates to death and laugh. I’ve been pretty serious for the last few days, been busy with my client’s tasks (grrr… ) and I never had the chance to open my mouth, what i mean is to talk with my officemates and swap stories with them. To add up with my worries, the BB’s of our company was visiting the premises and we were asked to dress up (smart casual), boohoohoo!!! T_T Tell the truth, I hate dressing up and looking pretty (just kidding!), just to let you know readers, I like to be comfortable with what I wear. I find it amusing when the BB’s comes to the office, there’s complete SILENCE and I was asking myself “Can I last for 1 week to keep my mouth shut?” I hope I can, lol. To keep me SANE for the past few days and NOT going CRAZY of total SILENCE was “HD”, just by catching a glimpse of him, I can reassure myself, I can DO this! If he can hear my thoughts, maybe he will definitely advice me to go to the looney bin!!! lol. I do have some crazy thoughts like doing “Ice Breakers” and singing “My toes, my knees… ” with BB’s shocking faces just for the heck of it, call me crazy but that’s the way I am. OMG, it almost 6 in the morning, this is not good, have to sleep now… lol, well I just have to think of “Happy Thoughts“, one more day to go!
