Friends As We Know Them

D - etermined

S - teadfast

for my entire life, it has always been my friends next to God and my family whom i treasure the most. Seeing how we grew apart, realizing how far we were now, is the hardest thing. But knowing that lots of them stays with you throughout your life is nothing but a gift. What is on top, is the meaning of FRIEND to me. Six words to describe them is not enough.

You and Me, From a Distance

This poem was written by when after our enrollment day for senior year. I was with friends when i saw him, a person once became part of my life.

 

from the stair i was sitting
i saw you greeting my friends
one by one
you look at 'em
smiling, saying hi
i was eager to see you
but that moment
a pang of jealousy didn't occur
not even a bit of excitement
whew..
i think i moved on

You Make Me Smile

        As i look back on my past, i remembered writing this poem when i was on my junior year on college.. It is about my dream love for a man whom never been mine.. Some who had read this poem said they can relate on this so-called "love&sad" poem.

i caught myself smiling
without knowing why
i saw your name
next to mine
it feels so right
can you blame me?

A Frustrated Writer

Many of us are happy on where we are, what we are and who we are - just for now. But after a year or two, would you still be happy with your life? Still have the contentment you have? I guess not to the fullest.

I am on my twenties right now. Recently graduated from college that took up a degree on Computer Science. I am now working, with two years contract. I am earning, I am a degree holder, people shown some of my achievements. I thought, when I finished with my studies, life would be easier. If I get a job in an instant, money would not be my problem. I was so proud for not being an undergrad and unemployed. But, AM I HAPPY?

What do you think?

Half of me says, yes I am happy with my life right now. I am surrounded with many true friends, and they keep on going. People think I am smart. Worries about my looks is became a less issue. But at some point, something is missing on my life. What is it? My real dream.

When I was a kid, I was a bookworm. Until now I still am. I love reading. I love writing stories. That's why I am a frustrated writer. When I start a story, I just can't seem to finish it. I always lose the idea. I always blocked out.

I want to write a story about love, about broken promises, about successful lives and bountiful friendships. I want to be known as one of the leading and famous writer of my era. Maybe just like "Bob Ong", "Lisi Harrison" or "J.K. Rowling". It was a big dream. And i am losing my faith to become one.

When i was younger, I've never been a part of any group that has a connection writing. I do write short stories but for me it was nothing against the other's writings. But now, its not too late. Thanks for blogging. i am now starting my career. Though it is true that i really am a frustrated writer (because im no good), its worth a try. Right?

Its never too late for our dreams no matter how old we are. It depends on how ca think positively and believe on ourselves. Life is about taking risks, trying and learning thru mistakes. Lets all achieve our dreams before it is too late.

Hope you like my post. First try to write about being a FRUSTRATED WRITER, just like me.
