			<title>A Concubine's Farewell</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<p>i'll forever remember you with this song. i'm sorry, i cant help but send you a note, just wanted you to know that I LOVE YOU, but we have to sometime know where things stop. i'm crying as im typing this (just like the time i played this song as you were crying on my shoulder), can't help but miss you. im sorry, im really sorry that we never worked out, guess we never really got to know what the real meaning of our relationship was for you and me.<br /><br />i want you to know that i cried everytime i saw you for the past week... i cried when i saw you sitting right beside him in that bar. i cried when you suddenly showed up with your friend. i cried when i saw his name on your list ---But im gonna be fine, i just need time to move on and not see you. <br /><br />thank you for everything. thank you for dancing with me (me stepping on your feet). thank you for running after that scumbag (me diving on pavement, scarred). Thank you for rushing me to the hospital (me aching badly and you sleeping on the sofa). thank you for carrying me across the bay on your back (me not wanting to get my feet wet). thank you for showing me that im special (you making it a point everyday that you love me). thank you for keeping letting me stay in your heart (eventhough most of the time im just that stupid kid jumpin inside that heart making you feel hurted and sad). thank you for always coming to my place to check on me (you and me, with Reddy and Reddy Ursa). Thank you for spending that whole year with me (now exactly 1year, 23days, 5hours, 21mins since i first saw you). But most of all, Thank you for Loving me, Making me Strong, and Believing in me... <br /><br />I know its the end. i know that it hurts so much but its best for us. <br /><br />"go your way, and ill go mine<br />live your life, and i'd live mine<br />baby you'd do well, and i'd be fine<br />coz we're better of Seperated"<br /><br />I LOVE YOU, ________________________. Goodbye. <br /><br /></p>]]></description>

			<title>Holding on that Broken String</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: times new roman;">I have to write this down, in hopes of some kind of inner release. i have to write this down to escape that person sleeping on my bed now and to run away from that seeemingly indifferent air of the room. i have to write this down coz i no longer know the difference between truth and lie, honesty and deception ---you and me. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">I no longer know how to trust you ---even if your doin nothing wrong. i cant convince myself that you're all mine, that every minute that&nbsp;you're away is a truthful minute of nothing but me and loyalty. it tears me up, knowing that I'm not safe with my thoughts and your 'semi-assurance' of a 'seemingly forever love affair'. lying next to you feels like a head trauma. i cant hear myself, i cant feel you, i can no longer see the same old you i fell inlove with (and worst, i cant hold on you without thinking that your here coz you simply 'got used to Us ---no more love, just a habit of shore). </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">i cant even trust you when you're around MY friends, everything seems to be a blur of you hitting on them or vice versa ---at least thats how it works for me and my brain. I cant really feel you, i can no longer feel myself. i want my old self back, i want the old you i fell inlove with. i want the&nbsp;old you. =(<br /><br />I really love you, but as the song goes: "You can't play on broken strings".<br /></span><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">i cant convince myself, so after this, after you wake up, i'm going to do what's necessary. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"></span></p>]]></description>

			<title>Hurting to Delete this</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">This used to be a comment i posted in his cyber page. now every single word in this small phrase meant nothing now:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><i><span>"He
brings out the kid in me" ---this is the line that has been clinging
over my head for the past few days. its like another 'feel-good mantra'
or 'calm-me-down wussa' spun like a broken vinyl; left to remind me
that there's still innocence and honesty in this world. yes, you remind
me of chiklhood (of naivete, innocence, honesty and everything
care-free in between). you remind me of trust, and of fidelity
---something I've lost hope on a long time ago. you remind me all of
this when i look into your eyes. your eyes mixed with longing, happy
smiles, and pure honesty ---those eyes i fell inlove with. i love it
when i look in your eyes. it calms me and at the same time it makes me
feel small. it calms me coz i know that i've found a person worth
looking straight in the eyes and say that 'your pure' but at the same
time makes me fee small coz i know that i used to have those eyes (i
used to, not anymore). Thank you for always making me feel special. =)
You're the last person i'd ever wanna hurt (seriously). this past few
days has been an epiphany in a form of you. you just dont know how
thankful i am that i met you. i may not express it all the time (i've
recently found it hard to express my true feelings freely) but you're
very special, and you deserve to be treated as one. thank you Guilly
Boy, I Love You. ---AISHITERU AIJI. (dated: 10/27/2008)</span></i></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">and his reply to me feels empty now (just another empty set of words):</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><i><span>celebi.....

gilboy

			<title>Its Certified; i've gained absolute stoicity</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">the fact that i've gain the ability to 'pretend' that i'm happy and that i'm not hurting is enough proof for me to say that I'm Stoic. The past Month has been a rollercoaster of emotions for me ---same old broken vinyl tune of me giving my all, him in a rampagae of cheating and multiple sexcapes. i wanna say that it hurts, that everytime i think of it a piece of me dies; but i can't (or i've lost the ability to do so).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">i guess its true, I got the curse of the Truth. it's just like what&nbsp;Sylvia Plath once said: "The Truth loves me! the truth comes to me." ---it always plays in my head when i unintentionally (which is <strong>SO</strong> more often than you think what should be coincidental)&nbsp;find out something that shouldnt be known. like for example, how he claimed that he was 'Raped' by two guys a year ago which turned out to be a week ago; or how he continuously deny that he never had any 'relationship' with the guy he claims he was 'raped' by (which eventually turned out that everytime he goes to my place his second stop is their place which is 5 blocks away from ours); or how we started out so happy until i found out that i was only his paramour (back-up) for the past few months until he decided to end it with him; or worst of all, how i started looking into his eyes with pure elation and innocence before and now how it fades into absolute meaning of LIES and DECEIT.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">all thats left of me now is nothing more than the "Play of Knowing and how you'd use it to your advantage"</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">this is the state that i initially Desired for; and now I'm not quite sure if i really want it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">(See its been so long since my last post--- Lame)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

			<title>You Tell Me</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<p>Yes you Tell me, tell me how to be real and not pretend that I'm hurting ---yes, hurting, scared, and suffering a slow death.</p>
<p>this is your queue to make me stop. make me stop with your touch and assurance that i'll never be just another doormat just lke to everyone else. I'm so tired of being hurt so please this is your queue to take me and never let me go.</p>
<p>then maybe, just maybe, this time, I'd know when, where, and how to stop.</p>]]></description>

			<title>Loosing its meaning (Song of the Paramour)</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">It now lost all form of meaning to it. Its just another empty set of words that i hear from you to make me believe that you're all mine (when it fact we both know its not and that it'll never happen).&nbsp; </span><span style="font-size: xx-small; color: #ff0000;">"I Love&nbsp; You's"</span><span style="font-size: xx-small;"> no longer felt the same for me as before.&nbsp; i think you killed it ---you and your broken vinyl tune of<i> i-will, i-wont and i-do's.&nbsp;</i> You and your tribe supported this (the movement against words and their meaning).&nbsp;</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">&nbsp;</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">as for me, i'll be discovering this newly adapted form of stoicity.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">(Coz in some ways, i really cant believe someone who considers me as a mere <b>back-up</b>)</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">JUST ANOTHER BACK-UP. another fallback. another consenting paramour.</span></p>]]></description>

			<title>Pre-emptive Strike (Defense, Confusion Mode)</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"><em>&ldquo;Gil, stop hurting yourself.&rdquo; </em></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;"><em>&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know how to.&rdquo;</em></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><o:p><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">It ended there, in an awkward and abrupt way. I knew one of these days someone would be telling me this and I&rsquo;d be replying in a monotone, stoic manner. It&rsquo;s always been in a loop &mdash;as if telling me that this isn&rsquo;t in duress but in a willful submission. I guess I don&rsquo;t love myself that much; I love everything too much except for myself. I&rsquo;m your true-blue emo-masochist. I&rsquo;ve been thinking to myself, is this really what I&rsquo;m meant to do? Have I been destined to hop endlessly from one scene to another in search of contentment (or at the very least, understanding)? </span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><o:p><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">I don&rsquo;t know what to write anymore. I don&rsquo;t know what to say. I wanna write about happy memories, but it seems to have passed into another liquid state of amnesia. I wanna write how I meet you (how the smell of Lacoste and Ice-blended coffee sticks to my memory like gummy bears in between my teeth); how I like it when your body twitch in perfect motion (as if in a dance) when you sleep, or how your innocent eyes assures me (for awhile) of certain hopes, promises and dreams; or simply how you hold my hand in public not caring what other people would say &mdash;but all seems to be a futile attempt to create a makeshift memory of me (you). </span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><o:p><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">In the office, I&rsquo;m branded as a SLUT (coz I think that&rsquo;s what I&rsquo;ve always been telling them). I guess I&rsquo;ve always wanted to be seen as one, just to hinder people from hurting me more and more. Yes I am a slut; I have every right to be one especially when I&rsquo;m hurting. I have every right to mend myself in a way that I know, in every possible way to help me cope-up. I put on this mask to help me survive, never showing a weak spot that they could target. I guess only a few people really understand (understood) me; and when they do, I just drive them off with my smile. I was once told by my officemate:</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><o:p><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: Times New Roman;"><em>&ldquo;You are not a slut. You&rsquo;re just insisting that you are coz you know deep inside that you want something else other than just sex. You have a very big heart that when you&rsquo;re hurt you don&rsquo;t even want people to worry about you.&rdquo;</em></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><o:p><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></o:p></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: Times New Roman;">I don&rsquo;t know where to stand now.</span></p>]]></description>
