Day 1: Faced with Reality


The breakup was yesterday but the impact never came till the clock stroked 12a.m. I sat at my sorry a$$ at computer desk in the living room, hard disk plugged into the CPU, scrolling through pictures after pictures of WGLP and me. I cant help but reminisce about the times we had spent with each other, good and bad for the past 3 years together. The idyllic tune of the song "Don't Love You No More (I'm Sorry)" by Craig David was playing in the background. Listening to the words of the songs, following the lyrics, my heart began to disintegrate and scatter like sand to wind. I have never heard a song so perfectly describing the separation that I have just experienced.

[VERSE 1]
For all the years that I've known you baby
I can't figure out the reason why lately you've been acting so cold
(didn't you say)
If there's a problem we should work it out
So why you giving me the cold shoulder now
Like you don't even wanna talk to me girl
(tell me)
Ok I know I was late again
I made you mad and then it's throwing the pan
But why are you making this drag on so long
(i wanna know)
I'm sick and tired of this silly games
(silly games)
Don't figure that I'm the only one here to blame
It's not me here who's been going round slamming doors
That's when you turned and said to me
I don't care babe who's right or wrong
I just don't love you no more.

[CHORUS]
Rain outside my window pouring down
What now, your gone, my fault, I'm sorry
Feeling like a fool cause I let you down
Now it's, too late, to turn it around
I'm sorry for the tears I made you cry
I guess this time it really is goodbye
You made it clear when you said
I just don't love you no more

[VERSE 2]
I know that I made a few mistakes
But never thought that things would turn out this way
Cause I'm missing something now that your gone
(I see it all so clearly)
Me at the door with you inner state
(inner state)
Giving my reasons but as you look away
I can see a tear roll down your face
That's when you turned and said to me
I don't care babe who's right or wrong
I just don't love you no more.

[CHORUS]
Rain outside my window pouring down
What now, your gone, my fault, I'm sorry
Feeling like a fool cause I let you down
Now it's, too late, to turn it around
I'm sorry for the tears I made you cry
I guess this time it really is goodbye
You made it clear when you said
I just don't love you no more

[BRIDGE]
Don't say those words it's so hard
They turn my whole world upside down
Girl you caught me Kompletely off guard
On the night you said to me
I just don't love you more.

[CHORUS 2X]
Rain outside my window pouring down
What now, your gone, my fault, I'm sorry
Feeling like a fool cause I let you down
Now it's, too late, to turn it around
I'm sorry for the tears I made you cry
I guess this time it really is goodbye
You made it clear when you said
I just don't love you no more


Granted. I knew you wanted to spend more time with your friends. I knew you had a stressful week with your final exams and I knew you have been busy with your work. I was selfish and uncompromising and that was wrong.

Comeing back to Bukit Panjang after my brother spoke some sense to me and clear my mind, Babygirl I knew what a terrible mistake I made.

Had dinner with her tonight. We didnt speak much it seems like there was nothing for us to say to each other anymore. But does she know that the silence we had was sweet silence? I don't care weather we are talking or not. As long as I can still see her, I'm happy.
