Where I Stood

I don't know what I've done
Or if I like what I've begun
But something told me to run
And honey you know me
It's all or none

There were sounds in my head
Little voices whispering
That I should go and this should end
And I found myself listening

Cuz I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should

Cuz she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand Where I stood

See I thought love was black and white
That it was wrong or it was right
But you ain't leaving without a fight
And I think I am just as torn inside

Cuz I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should

Cuz she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand Where I stood

And I won't be far from where you are if ever you should call
You meant more to me than anyone I ever loved at all
But you taught me how to trust myself and so I say to you
This is what I have to do

Cuz I don't know who I am, who I am without you
All I know is that I should
And I don't know if I could stand another hand upon you
All I know is that I should

Cuz she will love you more than I could
She who dares to stand Where I stood

She who dares to stand where I stood

*** Missy Higgins, Where I Stood

I know you well enough not to stand in your way.

Apologise

Demise.

Death is inevitable.

It's something that we'd face soon.

Someone just did. :'(

And the grief ain't sinking in, not just yet.

Another DABDA experience for the family.

Senility: A Slow and Painful Death.

Not every heartbreak is caused by a wrecked love life.

Fact is, there are certain circumstances that transpire to our lives make us feel insecure, or worse, miserable. There's this imminent fear that gives us this unbearable heartache and despondence.

One thing that I fear most is losing a loved one.

It's not that I'm morbid or something. I know this person I endear most is already way past old age. Consider 70 as the number. Recently, the person got sick. It's heart-breaking to see this person complaining about his/her tortuous back pain first thing in the morning. I'm not really used to wake up during AM specially if I don't have work on such day, but the wailing shatters me from my slumber.

People tend to get sicker and sicker as they grow old. I guess, it's because of old age that every body part begins to malfunction. Bones begin to brittle. Organs begin to fail. Carcinogens begin to multiply. The immune system begins to shut down which makes them more susceptible to infection than their heydays.

Causes may be idiopathic. But heck, of course, it's brought by senility.

Senility is a slow and painful death. :'(

Worry no more, the person is okay for now. The doctor didn't find something chronic. Now, I can breathe easier.
