Of love and broken hearts
Author: cc | Category: on blogging, photography, special occasion, thoughts in pictures
Just before dark, Mission Bay. click photo to enlarge.
Why does the sky seems so grey
Is it because of me
There’s no one left in sight
I feel the world closing in
Of all the places I’ve been to
All the people I’ve seen
People come and go
But memories, the memories of them cast footprints in my heart
As time goes by, I learn it’s all the grand plan of life
Of all the love and broken hearts
Of all the victories and battles
We’ll rise and shine again

So where do broken hearts go?
P.S.: Good grief! Have I been spammed too? Come to think of it, makes sense! STP = SPAM, what you get in tins! Very fat! Hahahahahahahha!!!!
CC: Deep in a corner of our hearts, there’s a room where you can see traces of the broken pieces.
Since I love SPAM so much, it must mean I love STP!!

nice poetry and pics..
CC: Hello, thank you!
Hope to see you around.

Yes life always does go on even when we are the most heartbroken and feel like everything is over it just keeps moving. Do people just get used to heartbreak with time? I think they probably are less stung by it because they know it will be coming.
CC: I agree with you. Sometimes the pain is less intense because we’re numbed to it. But life does go on, and cliche as it is, time is the best medicine.

That is how i am feeling today. Soon everything will turned into memories.
CC: And funnily enough, a few years down the road, when we look back, it won’t be that bad afterall. Hope you’re feeling ok now.

When there’s night, there’ll be day. Every broken heart will be mend through time.
CC: Just like ying and yang, everything has its balance.

哀寞大于心死!再大的悲哀只要心不死就还有希望,如果心死了,就如同行尸走肉一般。
CC: 好一句哀寞大于心死!我同意。

when the dark comes..wait a little while longer, the moon will shine with stars surrounding it! =D
CC: Well said Huei!

I like the words “We’ll rise and shine again”!

The last stanza of the poem is what we should all focus on. The time will come when we will rise again again after a season of sadness.
CC: Indeed, when face with sadness in our life, we should learn to focus on the positive things and remember however bad the situation is, it will pass.

poignant and sweet
on a different note, akismet has been letting through lots of spam trackbacks recently.
CC: Thank you! So far I haven’t had any trackback problem (touch wood!), it just keep trowing a few people’s comment to the spam bin. LOL

People are good at compensating. We just fill our lives with other things. It does not always help but life goes on.
CC: You’re right, we all have that in us, it’s our survivor’s instinct.
September 4th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
that’s thought-provoking… which one comes first? the photo or the poetry?
CC: The photo.
September 4th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
Agreed. *hugs* for you.
CC: *Hugs* for you too.

No love can cross our destiny’s path without leaving some mark on it forever.
CC: How true! It is those marks that make our life colourful.
September 4th, 2008 at 5:58 pm
I wanna rise and shine too, CC!
CC: All in good time my friend!
September 4th, 2008 at 5:58 pm
God always have the best plan for us. =)
CC: You’re right, but we have to realise it ourselves.

the title reminded me of whitney’s where do broken hearts goes?
nice words, i love:
memories of them cast footprints in my heart.
very true.
CC: Thank you!
I like that song, she used to be so good.
September 4th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
i like this poem! how true.. ppl will leave foot prints in our heart
CC: Glad you do. Those foot prints form memories, and we’ll come to treasure them in days to come.
September 4th, 2008 at 7:05 pm
We will, only if we believe!
CC: Belief is important, yes.

A journey in life is meaningless without leaving traces of broken hearts behind coz without it, you dont learn anything.
And yes, they call it “broken heart” coz Mad Cow Disease is already taken
CC: You are so right BaLQiZ. Those very memories are what make our journey colourful.
You always crack me up!
September 4th, 2008 at 8:04 pm
BaLQiZ is funny. moooooooo..
CC: She sure is!! I love her wicked sense of humour.

We survive on memories. Memories of the past, current and future.
CC: We do! Memories are something we hold dear to our hearts.
September 4th, 2008 at 11:07 pm
hmmm…
broken hearts can be mended through time, but there’ll always be scars left…
i guess that’s how we grow.
CC: True, and overtime, they turn into memories, memories we treasure.

CC: Thank you!

This is the process of life. Something that we cannot avoid once we are in the community.
CC: So let’s go along the ride and make the best of it!
September 5th, 2008 at 1:21 am
with time, we might get over da heart-breaking
with time, we might heal
sigh, it’s gonna leave a scar which will still remind us about da heart-breaking event
CC: Ironically, the scars are going to be remembered with fondness as time goes by.

How come there are no stars in the sky?! HOW COME!!
CC: Stars are rare on a winter night. It makes the lone moon even more beautiful I think.

Yep!! Rise & Shine - Never Give UP
CC: Never!
September 5th, 2008 at 1:27 pm
That’s part an parcels of life. There is rise and there must be fall. It’s not how many times we fall and rise that matters. What matter the most is how we rise above all hardship. Well, God is helping you indirectly…If He take you every blow, you’ll never grow right? Adversities has its advantages.
P.s.: You are so darn good with photography huh! Care to teach? LOL =D
CC: It’s all part of the journey, the broken pieces are those form the memories we’ll come to cherish.
Thanks for your compliment. I’m just an amateur snapping away, let’s share and learn together! ;D
September 5th, 2008 at 4:37 pm
Just like the yin and the yang, we need both the sweet and the bitter to spice up our life, don’t we? Have a wonderful w/e, CC.
CC: Balance and moderation are very important. You have a great weekend too!
September 6th, 2008 at 6:36 am

CC: Thanks kaycee! You have a great weekend!

I pretty wondering..how could you have a lot of creative idea to snap all the good photo. I am really admire it. Do you go for professional training in photography before or just a self thought.
CC: No professional training in photography. I pretty much just snap anything I find interesting. Of course it doesn’t hurt to have a creative husband too, we bound ideas off each other. I learn a lot of technical skills from him.
Thanks for the compliment.

CC: I’m glad to hear that. Thank you!
