My Silent Cry

Can you hear my heart's sadness,
As these salty tears fall?
Do you see the deep wounds inflicted;
Made by hurt's call.
My soul grieves in your absence -
I am left to mourn alone:
Without your arms' security;
Away from my heart's home.
These streams have no end,
As long as we're apart -
No one else can sooth this injury,
Nor mend this wounded heart...

Love me, hold me, heal me;
This pain is too much to bare -
Is it not plain enough for you to see
I need my Angel's care?
The tears have far from ceased;
They fall like rain from the sky -
Without words they sing of the injustice
That has caused this silent cry.

You will never believe what happened today... so pai seh... *blush* Haiz... so embarrassing lah... Hao Wen and I were on the bus on the way home when I realized that I only had one of my rubber bands around my right wrist and I just started panicking (cuz I just lost two other rubberbands yesterday - left them at church main office by accident haiz...) so we were like searching frantically all around and then, Hao Wen suddenly stopped looking for it and stared at me for about like 3 second before silently pulling out my left hand. Wah... so sianz lah... blur until like that... the rubberband was actually around my left wrist... *sweatdrop* I really need to get more sleep.

A song I dedicate to the one who owns my heart...

Every time we touch
- Cascada

I still hear your voice when you sleep next to me,
I still feel your touch in my dreams. (my dreams)
Forgive me my weakness,
but I don't know why.
Without you it's hard to survive.

'Cause everytime we touch,
I get this feeling,
and every time we kiss,
I swear I can fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast?
I want this to last,
need you by my side.
'Cause everytime we touch,
I feel the static,
and everytime we kiss,
I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat so?
I can't let you go,
want you in my life.

Your arms are my castle,
your heart is my sky.
They wipe away tears that I cry. (I cry)
The good and the bad times,
we've been through them all.
You make me rise when I fall.

'Cause everytime we touch,
I get this feeling,
and everytime we kiss,
I swear I can fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast?
I want this to last,
need you by my side.
'Cause everytime we touch,
I feel the static,
and everytime we kiss,
I reach for the sky.
Can't you hear my heart beat so?
I can't let you go,
want you in my life.

'Cause everytime we touch,
I get this feeling,
and everytime we kiss,
I swear I can fly.
Can't you feel my heart beat fast?
I want this to last,
need you by my side.

THE INTERVIEW WITH GOD

I dreamed I had an interview with God.

“So you would like to interview me?” God asked.

“If you have the time” I said.

God smiled. “My time is eternity.”
“What questions do you have in mind for me?”

“What surprises you most about humankind?”

God answered...
“That they get bored with childhood,
they rush to grow up, and then
long to be children again.”

“That they lose their health to make money...
and then lose their money to restore their health.”

“That by thinking anxiously about the future,
they forget the present,
such that they live in neither
the present nor the future.”

"That they live as if they will never die,
and die as though they had never lived.”

God’s hand took mine
and we were silent for a while.

And then I asked...
“As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons
you want your children to learn?”

“To learn they cannot make anyone
love them. All they can do
is let themselves be loved.”

“To learn that it is not good
to compare themselves to others.”

“To learn to forgive
by practicing forgiveness.”

“To learn that it only takes a few seconds
to open profound wounds in those they love,
and it can take many years to heal them.”

“To learn that a rich person
is not one who has the most,
but is one who needs the least.”

“To learn that there are people
who love them dearly,
but simply have not yet learned
how to express or show their feelings.”

“To learn that two people can
look at the same thing
and see it differently.”

“To learn that it is not enough that they
forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves.”

"Thank you for your time," I said humbly.

"Is there anything else
you would like your children to know?"

God smiled and said,
“Just know that I am here... always.”

Haiz... can't believe I mixed up the actual date of the BV auditions and thought it was today lah... *sianz* So like there I was stoning in school from 10.30am till 4pm (cuz both T Fong and LCG were absent so no GP and Econs today and therefore only had 3 periods of Lit in the morning)

Maybe I messed up the date for the audition due to too much euphoria of being free from 10:30am onwards (and possibly also too much sleeping on one side on the table... maybe that upset mmy brain juices a bit)

So anyway, yeah, there I was stoning till 4pm and the next thing I know, I'm rushing down to Suntec with Hao Wen for late lunch/early dinner at Carl's Jr before I dashed off to main church office only to find that the audition was not today but on 23 May. Wah... how blur can I get sia!?! So called up Hao Wen and ran all the way from Suntec Tower 3 to City Hall MRT so that I have company on most of the journey home... haiz...

I really have to stop being so blur...

Anyway... I think when the audition does come, I'll probably be singing Song of Freedom by Hillsongs Australia, and Draw Me Away by Rev Kong Hee, see how bah.

Confessions

My Revelation
I'm imperfect
Yet He loves me
He took away all my sins
Everything I've ever done
And everything I'm going to do

He took my anguish
Through those whips
He took my pain
Through those nails
He took my guilt
Through those thorns
He took my shame
Through the work of the cross

When I'm lost
I run to Him
To cry in His arms
And hear Him say
"It's all going to be ok."

The comforter of my heart
And lover of my soul
When all man fail
And fall away
You'll always be there with me
Each and every day

Forgive me for my imperfection
My frailty to temptation
And the snare of sin
Only You can change me
And make me all You want me to be
