My Rock

.
You once promised me,
that you'll always be there for me,
On good and bad days,
Be it sunny or rainy days.

That you'll listen to my happy stories,
and share my burden and worries,
You told me that you'll be,
My pillar, my rock -
Always by me, baby.

But as time goes by,
the rock became little pebbles,
eventually turned into sand,
Then came the rain,
That washed everything off in the end.

What's left is a promise,
That turned out empty,
And I've become the girl,
Who cried plenty.

Two years have gone by,
How you've been, I still wonder,
Do you ever miss me, my dear?
Cause my feelings for you still linger.

Without you, I falter...
Cause I lost my rock, my pillar.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I resorted to writing this, cause I didn't have any other means of getting it out, or telling you how I feel. I was really down, and needed to talk. It scares me how much I still depend on you, rely on you. I actually dialed your number, only to hang up when I heard the ring tone.

I tried being strong, standing for myself. But little did I realise, that when I'm down and out, at my lowest point, I still turn to you...

I shall not, I cannot.

This way, I'll never move anywhere, although evidently, you've moved on.

Why do you always write sad, depressing posts? I feel sad for you too.

I release my hurt.
I allow the past to fade.
I am here.
The pain is gone.

Cherrio, gal! Life goes on.

If you walk further down,
you may find another rock,
a rock that may be stronger than the last one, withstanding heat,wind and the rain,
If you only take the first step..

With the new rock,
It may be part of the shelter we build for ourselves,
A shelter that will protect us,
From the sun, the rain, the snow, from the everything..
If only we give a chance for that shelter to be built.


It indefinitely hard to move on, esp when he already has, but that only means all the more you need to.
Hanging up on the dialtone, is already a first step.. no one said it was gonna be easy.

If I could do it, so could YOU!! ;)

Just give me a buzz when u need a listening ear, okie dokes?

*hugz*

Thank you ALL, for the sweet, encouraging words.

Summer: I'm sorry, I can't help it. At ungodly hours like that, all I could do, was to pen down my thoughts *shy* I wasn't gonna call someone and sob about it, u know what I mean?

Mei said...

Amelia: Yes, thank you for being so encouraging. I am trying =)

Mei said...

wuching: *nods repeatedly* I know I should... and it's getting a little easier as days go by.

Mei said...

Ade: I failed last night. I did ring him after all. But it was good. Nothing sad or teary. We reminisced the good old times, and spoke a little about the future. I guess the main thing was, I needed to know that he's okay. I actually felt alright last night.

And yes, perhaps if I start walking down a new path, I shall find a new rock. A better one even. But I guess, for now, I'm quite comfortable, and shall take things when they come :)

But thanks, gal. *Hugz* Retail therapy this weekend will surely help! Hehehe.

Why do you need to find a new rock? Can u be a rock? Why depend on someone?

Mei said...

anonymous: Hhm, that's a thought. I am independant, but I wouldn't wanna be my own rock. I believe everyone needs a confidante, or else, you'll end up bursting one day.

And also, I believe God created Adam and Eve, and not just Adam, or Eve... for a reason? :)

aww...crap. i just typed a long comment and forgot to publish it...=( let's see if i remember what i typed:

...hmm...

ok, i kinda remember what i wrote at the end: there's a 'happy misery' in loving someone that you should've let go a long time ago...that's what makes the good days good and the bad days bad. hang in there, girl...we are all here for you, whenever!

Mei said...

Sooyin: A "happy misery"? HhMm.. never looked at it that way before, but perhaps that's why I'm still hanging on to someone I should have let go a long time ago.
Thanks for shedding some light :)

Hi Mei Ling =)

I have my finals in 3 days & here I am, browsing thru' Ur cool blog!!

I can identify with how U feel, totally.. Took me a long tme to completely let go off the past.. & I don't deny, that familiar places, a certain time of the year, familial scents & songs still play in my mind, at times.

People say it takes TIME, & I agree. U can't just throw away what you have held so dear before.. Everyone handles it differently, as God created each of us as unique as each fingerprint!

Nobody will ever be able to replace *him*, as nobody will replace my previous bf. But life goes on, people move on, things change, as how seasons change. I believe there will be a special someone else in the future for all of us. And that someone else doesn't need to be better than *him* either.

As ironic as it sounds, I'm really enjoying my 'single-hood' now. Although ultimately, I do pray that I'll meet that "someone" whom would be meant-to-be =)

Ok, U take care k.. We know that it all things, God works for the good of those who love Him-Romans 8:28. Hugs* all the way from Ireland. Bye gurl!

Mei said...

Su Zen: Well, it's getting colder and gloomier now! :( And I've been piling up on food. So you know what that ultimately means huh?

Hehehe

Mei said...

Fun: Oh, is everything alright? I'll call you one of these days, k? Meanwhile, hang in there! *HUGGGGG* *Squeezeeee*

Mei said...

esther: AwWw, that's real sweet of you to have left me a comment that length! I know those words are so real, from your heart. I hope you're doing wonderfully in Ireland.

And yes, I agree that *he* doesn't even have to be smarter, taller, better looking, richer, better than the one before. If it's "him", you'll just know it. It'll be right! =)

Perhaps, I'm just a hopeless romantic, but I do believe in that. Hehehe. And yes, I need to have faith that God will let me find him one day. I'm sure He will let you find yours too! *hugz*

And of course, GOOD LUCK for exams, girl!! Dr. LOH in no time huh? I'm so so proud of ya!

Mei said...

Mei Ling: *HUGS*

Mei said...

Siok Mei, is that you? I was stunned for a moment, seeing my own name. And then I clicked on your profile and saw Southampton. So I guess it should be you. *Hugz* back! :) Hehehe

Mei said...

Mei Ling, it was me indeed! ^_^

Mei said...

Siok Mei: Hehehe, I knew it! I'm quite smart. Hahahahahahah.

Mei said...

anonymous: Hehehe. I'm a true romantic at heart. Me and my ideals, I guess. But how likely is that to happen in real life, I don't know. :)
