Burning midnight oil sessions

Were we ready, who’s to say the answer?
Who is ever ready for these things?
No one could prepare us for the laughter
No one could prepare us for the pain

You feel like burning embers
You feel like coming home
You feel like my forever
And that’s all I need/want/have to know

Every night I ask for your forgiveness
In grown up skin I still act like a child
I can make believe that I am flawless
You’re close enough to see the cracks I hide

You have caused me tears of joy relentless
I cannot now imagine life without
I owe you more than humble words could confess
I love you more than I even know how

You feel like burning embers
You feel like coming home
You feel like my forever
And that’s all I need to know

You feel like Christmas morning
You feel like summer rain
You feel like holy waters
That rinse away my stains

You feel like children singing
You feel like midnight calm
You feel like breathing deeply
Until the storm is gone

The view outside my bedroom window. Leaves have fallen from the trees, winter is officially here. See the heart shaped candles? They were used for my 19th bday!

Took out my camera, might as well take a few more pictures of my room. Study area, with little fan heater blowing right in my face. Very messy ;P

My comfy bed. I find having big beds a waste as I just sleep on 1 side anyway
(the side closest to alarm clock of course)

No I'm not depressed or anything like that. Just feeling a wee bit sentimental discussing over "heavy" stuff lately: graduating next year, having to leave some friends end of this year, weddings, responsibilities, duties to fulfil etc.

And also, looked through my photo album from National Service back in 2005, reminded me of all the friendships formed; the tears cried & laughter shared, those are the memories that will stay in my mind forever, the ones that I will cherish. It scares me a little knowing that the experiences I go through now, the words I say and actions I do at this very moment will define my future and the people that are going to stay in my life forever for a long time. =)
