No stars tonight. The clouds look dark and heavy. The wind is unbelievably cold from where I sit. So, I motioned my legs, flexed them at the knees and wrapped my arms around them. I gazed back at the sky. Any moment, there will be a downpour. Soon, the clouds will let go of the water in them. The grounds will then be wet. There is simply no denying that it will RAIN --- hard and with loud resounding thunder and lightning.
I hope to see a rainbow after. But my eyes only see darkness.
Then, it rained. No rainbow.
I think to myself, Will I ever get to have a glimpse of that elusive rainbow? I hope so. At least, just once.
Show me. At least just one rainbow amidst the dark sky.
Because it is raining inside me too. It is dark, too. It is cold, too.
So, please, is there going to be any rainbow after?

while i was reading these, the clouds were very dark outside my window (hence the subject of the other message i sent ya). somehow i felt that those ominous clouds were saying 'u look like i feel' while reading ur blogs.
writing is ur outlet (maybe? obviously?)
in class, in group outings, or wherever (back then), we all looked at u as someone so...sunny. the world smiles on u.
how painful it is for me to read these words that feel like cold rain. something in me rejects all these words that mirror my sorrows because it should never come from you.
but how selfish of me to say this.
lemme repeat. and add: I believe writing is ur outlet. (hate the txt-like typing but im lazy so this will do. grrr irrelevant thoughts just won't stop cutting in!)
a coin has 2 sides ain't it? well I believe a person has something like that too.
sunny and rainy? bright and dark? dat's u.
it's just that, i hate the way it makes me feel. Like, you shouldn't have none of those non-sunny stuff just coz i remember u were very happy.
im not making any sense, am I?
