Among the many fruits on the shelf
my eyes were fixated on one
whose skin shines and sparkles
enticing, seducing, intoxicating.
But as I peel it off layer by layer
the less enchanting it becomes
and before I even reached the core
the taste became too sour
for me to continue eating.
Thus to the trash can it goes
and back to the market I go.
Today was a pretty awesome day! Learnt a fantastic choreo to the song Kiss Me Thru the Phone by Soulja Boy. It's an old choreo but nonetheless FANTASTIC! Hehehe. Practically walked from Paragon to Tanglin Mall repeating that song over and over while dancing in my head. The arguably long distance felt like nothing thanks to it! Hehe. One of those choreos that will always have a special place in my heart :)
By contrast, yesterday wasn't as gleeful...because certain people were exhibiting racist behavior, which I seriously cannot stand. I find that it's highly narrow-minded to believe that the value of a person lies, first and foremost, in his origin. #%#@%#$??! My intense reaction to such behavior led to some misunderstandings and misinterpretations, but all that is past now. Sigh. At least now I have confirmed the place I'll be staying at from December onwards. So happy! :)
Truly now,
I have found something
that I know I will treasure
for sunshine it brings
to my head and heart.
Anything I will do
to keep it close and dear
this gem that I've found
even when it means
keeping something else
tightly under wraps
invisible and unfindable.
