An infatuation that will pass

Telling you that I am reminded of your cat just to avoid admitting that I think of you

 (to be deleted before the person actually see this)

The thought of you haven't crossed my mind in quite sometime now until today, I came across a song which reminded me of your cat, then my thoughts start to wonder off to how you used to make me feel. I wonder how you have been, it's been a while isn't it?

I heard you met someone, i heard she's a sweet grad school student- an ivy league undergrad, just like you. Seems you two have a lot in common. I heard she loves cats, just like you and that you took her to cat cafe for your 2nd date, that sounds puurrrfect. I heard you're starting to love New York since she happened. I can't help but wonder how she must be, and by the end of the day I find myself looking up all your friend's profile hoping to see if your dates with her have been going well. So there I was, looking at pictures of you in tuxedo with your arms around a girl in a tight black dress who almost spill her champagne glass from laughing. "This's quite unhealthy", I tell myself as I keep staring at every inch of her body comparing myself to this perfect woman in your arms. 

She's better than I am in every single way, an ivy league graduate, so she's a hundred times smarter and hard-working than I am. She looks so pretty and perfect, it's quite clear she's better than I am in every single way. 

My mind is racing with the thoughts of her today, to a point it's almost overwhelming. If you knew how these make me feel, your kind hearted soul will probably feel awful, you'de probably tell me how beautiful I am inside and out, how I deserve someone better than you. I know you a little too well. And that is exactly why you shall never know how seeing your name pops up in my screen gives me the adrenaline rush, how I often fantasise bout what we could be. I do not want your pity or your patronising compliments telling me I will find someone better. If the feelings aren't going to be reciprocal, I would take this to my grave.

And this is how I will pour out the overwhelming feelings I have for you telling myself that it is just an infatuation that will pass.

    Well someday this story will make sense. What will hit will never miss you and what will miss you will never hit you.

Irreconcilable Love

Never been one to have wondering eyes. Been too focused on navigating life and building myself up that I forget to derive pleasure off casual flirty interactions.  No, I do not deny the attractiveness of the beautiful people around me. They sure are a pleasure to the eye. But like the saying "out of sight, out of mind"  I tend to appreciate them as part of God's creation. I acknowledge their beauty but swiftly return my attention to the self-centered trajectory of my own ambitions and the life I aim to achieve. Been so emotionally closed off while aching for a shoulder to lean on, someone to deeply connect to. Then there you were, showering me with promises, security that you won't do me wrong as I slowly let my guard down giving you the trust I haven't had the ability to instill on anyone else. I am not denying your claim that you did treated me well... atleast on the initial stages when you were overwhelmed by your infatuations. You worshipped me, treated me in

BEAUTY

Do you derive pleasure in telling people they look ugly/disgusting because they do not fit the criteria of what you perceive to be beautiful??? Are you aware of the consequences of your actions? Or how your "jokes" can have impact on not just the person but everyone around you who hear it?  I have been on the receiving end, where I had to pretend like what they said do not have any impact on me, but it does.  After all, we are just social animals who seeks acceptance and validation.  I do not put the blame on you if your perception of  "beautiful" is so manipulated by our society that you just cannot look past it.  But if the factors that contribute to this standard of beauty was slightly changed, YOU yourself could be awfully ugly and disgusting that looking at you alone could be unpleasant. I am not here trying to teach you to be kind when I am not so kind myself, but your lack of empathy and demeaning jokes is such a shame.
