Why?

Did you feel sorry, truly sorry today
When you broke my heart, I was surprised
With those pointed words, and then apologised
Only to say them again, in a different way

As I left those tears to dry, on my cheek
When you left me crying alone, all this week
How did I wrong you, what did I say
How could I hurt you in any way?

For I loved you, so much more than you could know
And I could never see you unhappy, or sad
But there is bitterness, in your furrowed brow
And I'd hate to think, it was me being bad

So tell me dear, do you mean those little words
For they pierce my soul, like tiny pointed swords
Forgiveness, should I ask for, or give you mine
Or will it all be forgotten, with tomorrow's sunshine...

Ego

This world of yours, what do you know about it,
What little you see, you go on and on about it
No other people, nobody else can come and go,
Ain't nobody here bigger than your ego...

This world, leering, like a wolf, a bloody fang,
Eager to rip you apart, take you out with a bang
Thats all you ever see, but it's more, and I know
There's good also in it, if you just let it show

You may be a little lonely, but you're not alone
You're just another guy, not sitting on a throne
There is no castle, have a good look around
There are other players, on this little playground

There can be a better world, if only we let it be,
And bring about a little change, a bit of humility
Pedestals are for fools, they can be knocked down
Whenever a new hero walks into your town...

last day of 2012...

The last day, of a year that has been so remarkable, in so many ways. It has given me so much, taken away so much, taught me so much and is probably the best thing to happen to me since i was born. It is the end of so many things, a marker in my memory to remember indelible moments that must endure for all eternity, and also forgettable for many things that could have gone in a better way but didnt. A year end that hopefully marks the end of many things, but also hopefully a new beginning, to a better year, where the smiles outnumber the frowns. Goodbye 2012, and here's looking forward to 2013!!
