Reflection
Look at me,
You may think you see
Who I really am,
But you'll never know me.
Everyday,
it's as if I play
A part.
Now I see,
If I wear a mask,
I can fool the world,
but I cannot fool my heart.
Who is that girl I see?
Staring straight,
Back at me.
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
I am now,
In a world
Where I have to hide in my heart,
and what I believe in.
But somehow,
I will show the world what's inside my heart,
And be loved for who I am.
Who is that girl I see,
staring straight
back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
Must I pretend that I'm
someone else
for all time.
When will my reflection show,
who I am inside?
There's a heart that must be free
to fly
That burns with a need to know
the reason why
Why must we all conceal
What we think
How we feel?
Must there be
a secret me
I'm forced to hide
I won't pretend that I'm
someone else
for all time.
When will my reflection show
who I am inside?

hmmz. i feel so sianz 2dae. ok let mi xplain a few terms. cca--co curricular activity. compulsory in singapore. instrument playing--bassoon. if you dun noe wat it is. 4get it. dun ask mi. i dun noe how to describe it xcept tt it is a vry 'chio' or 'pretti' instru...luv it to bits. yahz.
2dae is a lazy dae. boring. but nvm coz i doubt i will many of such daes to cum. aniwae 2dae didnt do much xcept to read finish a bk n slack ard. sighz. but was quite happie lahz.
oh yahz. went to visit my parents' friend who juz hav a baby boy. goshz. he is so tiny. reallie vry tiny. but he is so obedient n quiet. it's like he eat then he sleep then he eat again then sleep n e cycle continue. but he is so cute. with two dimples n double eyelid. wow.
looking at him i wonder juz how wonderful life is. how i wish i can experience the birth of a baby. the joy of bringing a new life into tis world. i wanted to be a physician hopefully a surgeon but nt a gynaecologist. dun ask mi y. maybe i juz cant take it? i dun noe. but i always hope tt i can heal others' wounds. hmmz. i tink i m tinking too much. but helpin others reallie cheer mi up. i feel happie durin those moments.
but sumtimes i cant help but question. wat good is it to bring a new life into tis world now. we face e danger of terrorism. the earth tt is slowly dyin awae. the natural disasters tt befall on mankind without any mercy n sumtimes warnings. competition is gettin stiffer n 'darker'. pple is willin to do anitin to achieve their means. sighz. wat is tis world cumin to. where did peace go? or is it not present in this world rite frm e start? i cant wait to watch 'the day after tomorrow'. tell u alrdy. i m pessimistic.
aniwae tokin abt terrorism. i cant help but tink tt actually there is notin much we can do abt it. truthfully speakin. the reason is vry simple. every one of us has a mind which interpret e tings we see. sumtimes objectively. most of e time subjectively. if sumwan alrdy hav tt idea implant in his mind. it's near impossible to 'dig' it out. n tis type of 'unique' n unconvectional ideals appeal to pple coz all of us r tired of convectional stuff. doing e rite tings or else...n stuff like tt. u dare to disagree? sumtimes it's becoz they wan to attract attention but most of e time is nt but becoz they believe tt they r rite. rite by being different frm others. rite by being able to see tings in another angle. a more superior angle as compared to all e other lowly peers. they r betta than aniwan out there. they r rite. it's e world tt is wrong n they set out to correct it. tis is how terrorism cum along. n reallie there's notin much we can do. coz e biggest demon of all is e wan living in e mind. perhaps bush n e govts ard e world can tink abt tis. no amt of weapons of mass destruction is goin to silence them all. no amt of security is going to keep them out. coz they r inside us. all of us. it's juz tt u n i keep them tamed unlike others. tink abt it...
