Mine No More

The soul that belongs to me is no longer mine
Though I was born with it at the start of time

It now belongs to someone dear
Someone I love, it's now so clear

Darling, I hope that I will always be yours
My heart longs for you, it seems to call

I could not listen to it before
I was caught up in so much more

I realise now that my soul is yours,
it will always be until the doors
Of heaven pull me through the golden gates,
and there I will sit and wait

For you to enter my sweet world
Once again you'll be my girl

My tears fall as my brittle heart weeps
My soul is always yours to keep

I can't take it back, not for anyone
Not for freezing ice nor burning sun

Not for mountains high or rivers deep
My soul is always yours to keep

Not for anyone or anything
Your name is what my soul sings
Not for crashing thunder nor ripping wind
Or voices that tell me to give in

Not for the giant moon nor furthest star
My heart and soul are mine no more.

Maybe the old songs...

Songs can make us remember even the tiniest details of our lives. When you hear a song, you feel this tug in your heart and then a memory resurfaces, good or bad.

During nights like these, when I have tons of things to do, I make it a point to turn on the radio. Besides keeping me company, music helps me think.

And I was able to hear this old song again…

in my time, i’ve lived and loved so much
through each high and low, i let my heart be touched
in my time, there isnt much i’ve missed,
i’ve seen love come and go, but heaven knows, i’ve never loved like this
in my time

A couple more thousands of words to go! Thank you for the music that's keeping me company...

RT/WW: Get together with friends

I miss my friends so much! I never get to see them regularly but for three girls whom I consider my best friends (Jing, Mika and Tim). Actually now, I do get to see Jing and Tim only because Mika is already living in Chicago.

I hope to see them again soon!

Even though we've changed and we're all finding our own place in the world, we all know that when the tears fall or the smile spreads across our face, we'll come to each other because no matter where this crazy world takes us, nothing will ever change so much to the point where we're not all still friends.

Happy Tuesday everyone!

P.S. I have revamped this blog and cleaned out the old entries a bit, spiffed up the template and changed this blog's title and description. There's something new and I hope you will stay a while and check out this 'brand new' old blog of mine!

MYM: Missing Chocolate de Batirol

I really miss Baguio City. It's been more than a year that we haven't gone back there. It is my family's adopted hometown. We just love the feel of being in the province but with the perks of the city life! ;)

Whenever we go there, it is a must for us to stop by Chocolate de Batirol. It is a quaint little cafe offering one of the best hot choco drink you'll ever taste!

That's a crew of the cafe mixing their famous hot choco in front of us.

Four mugs of steaming hot choco for me and my sisters!

And, of course, hot choco will never be complete without a yummy bibingka!

Oh how I miss Baguio and the Batirol hot choco!

Have a wonderful week everyone!

Something new!!! ☺

This blog used to be called Bookmarks, A journey of life, love and everything in between. My goal was to chronicle my journey in life here, mostly in correlation to the books I read. But along the way, so many things changed. I got sidetracked and posting here became sporadic.

So it got me thinking... why not change this blog's title to Sporadic Thoughts?

I did and I am curious as to what you think about it.

Let me know your thoughts.

MYM/RT: Pad Thai and Mocha Shake

I am craving for Mocha Shake of Pancake House and Pad Thai of My Thai. I had the two a few weeks ago and I am craving for it again.

Yum!
