at rest...

I close my eyes. deep breaths...

Listening to the music...

The hopes we had were much too high...
Way out of reach but we had to try...

A smile on my contented face. The lights are dim. The faint sounds of the AC... The pains and aches of the day, washed away. The frustrations and the anger, all gone. All that is left, is the radio...

Another deep breath...

When there's love in sight...
i swear i'll always be strong...

Thinking back to the year so far... it's been quite a ride. Learnt a lot, often through the hard way. Grew in confidence... New experiences, new aspirations, new goals. Gained in maturity...

Oceans apart, day after day,
And i slowly go insane...

Somehow, things always seem better, easier, lighter, when I close my eyes. No distractions, just a mental model of the obstacles crossed, and the challenges ahead. When the eyes are closed, the pain receptors are numbed, but the other senses are heightened... pleasure, hope, perspective...

Now, we got nothing but the radio on...
we're all dancing to a new emotion...

How apt...
