To put it simply, find a song which truly depicts what you are feeling right now, be it happy or sad. View the lyrics and devotedly comprehend your reflection. As for me, I've choses "Only an Ocean Away - Sarah Brightman" cos it really reflects what I am feeling. The numbers beside the paragraphs are known as hai-kus?...

Only An Ocean Away (A grieving song)
1 = I see a shadow every day and night. I walk a hundred streets of neon lights, Only when I'm crying. Can you hear me crying.

2 = So many times you always wanted more, Chasing illusions that you're longing for. Wish I wasn't crying. Can you hear me crying.

3 = There's an ocean between us. You know where to find me. You reach out and touch me. I feel you in my own heart.

4 = More than a lifetime. Still goes on forever. But it helps to remember You're only an ocean away.

5 = Was there a moment when I felt no pain. I want to feel it in my life again. Let it be over now. Oh Oh over now.

6 = 'Cause I remember all the days and nights We used to walk the streets of neon lights Oh I want you here with me. Oh be here with me.

7 = There's an ocean between us. You know where to find me. You reach out and touch me. I feel you in my own heart.

8 = More than a lifetime Still goes on forever. But it helps to remember You're only an ocean away.

9 = So many times you always wanted more, Chasing illusions that you're longing for. Wish I wasn't crying. Can you hear me crying.

10 = There's an ocean between us. You know where to find me. Just reach out and touch me. I feel you in my own heart.

11 = More than a lifetime It seems like forever. But I'll always remember You're only an ocean away.

12 = Only an ocean away.


Genre 1, 6: I see my own shadow while I take a stroll down a streets of neon lights (alone). The shadow represents me, my character and my reflections. It shows that while I walk down the lane of Neon Lights, in deep thoughts, mostly thinking of the unhappy past while I handle the present. Given that Neon Lights comprimises of the many different luminous colours with inert gases, the complexity of the situation is much more that what I can handle. Crying over the mistake I made, it is too late for salvation...

Genre 2, 9: She wished me happiness but I can't hold my tears. Trickling slowly down my cheeks, I try to contain the sense of desolation in my heart. Unfortunately, I failed. We had always wanted to be together but Providence denied this relationship. Chasing the illusions that we pictured, sitting under the sunset, leading a normadic life we both preceived. Filled with love and serenity and tranquility, we live the rest of our lives in the meadows up the mountain high.

Genre 3, 7, 10: There's an ocean between us means that there is still a clear line of difference in our character and spiritual being. Much as we wanted to defy the Heaven's the continue being connected spiritually, Love leads the way. When we both reach out our hands to hold on to the futuristic goal, we were clear of our divinations that the Lord had dictated. Nevertheless, we are still able to feel the strong bond of Love that we share...

Genre 4, 8, 11: More than a lifetime, regardless of past, present or the future. No cycles of reincarnation would do us part. No doubt, we are seperated but "ONLY" an ocean away. "Only" depicts that we are close spiritually also trying to overcome that distance between us. Distance was not a factor in our hearts, that's that!

Genre 5: Time was passing minute by minute, feelings were fading second by second. What ever that matters did not have an impact on me anymore! However, I still loved her, though my mind tells otherwise.

Alright... I'll end here... I can't find anything more to fill in liao.. bye!~
