How is it that i'm more sure of myself when i was 17 than i am now?
How is it that i broke my back for my friends at that age but only a handful is around to break their backs for me now?
What happened to I scratch your back and you scratch mine?
How is it that I pray for love to covet my heart yet when I see it coming, I run the other way?
How is it that I love Allah but I do so little to show Him my love?
How is it that when I think of the afterlife, I know where I'll end up yet do little to prevent it?
How is it that when I think of my future, I only see my career?
How is it that when I think about now, I think about you?
How is it that when I think about possibilities, I think about the person i thought i'd be by now?
Why is it that I chase after people who are chasing after others or dreams that are bigger than themselves?
Why can't I settle?
Why can't I just lie next to you, not a word, not a glance, just to watch our hearts on fire?
Where is my love lifejacket?
What should I do to get these questions out of my head?

Even if you nip passion in the bud, it doesn't mean that it won't grow elsewhere in your heart.

sure... it will grow back... but if u cant tend to it... it'll become an overgrown weed... wont it? :)
hmmm..not really..
the passion is the tree..and the weeds are the other aspects of life that try to resemble passion, the tree. The only way passion can become weed is when you treat your passion like a burden..
But yes, even if you cut down the tree (passion), it will grow back eventually :) Like I said, when the day comes, I'll be here with a pen.
