Sunday, oh Sunday....


"My darkness prevails in the absence of your light"

Today….i was home…..in ma room….98% of the day…..i ate…read….watched tv….all by ma own. Was meant to paint…but had no emotion…no motivation..no inspiration

Thoughts of you float by once in a while….and I remembered the flowers. All 5 buds have bloomed and….I finally agree…they look beautiful. I wish one day, I too, would bloom.


Ogake, one of ma closest friends from uni, told me today what lilies mean. It was a strange revelation. Roses symbolize love, Chinese bamboo…harmony…but lilies…..when given to one….means….

"I dare you to love me”

And I do dare you…why won’t u submit! Why cant I break you like you’ve broken me.

Strange thing is….ma name Zehra…in some languages….means Flower, and I know how much you love em….so I ask u….Love this flower too.

Anyways……I again have got ‘clicking-diarrhea’. I showered, did ma hair and makeup and took many new strange pictures, strange as in direction, context, subject and of course the unusual use of blurriness.

Ratty got another chance to pose…hehe…I simply adore him…he is..ma savior when the nites are cold and ma heart is alone. He had the right amount of ‘squeeze’ in him! He tried a strawberry today!!
:)


And I read the “Readers Digest”. The cover states “Love Struck”….I think they made a Typo……it should be “LOVE STINKS”


I stopped at the following article….need to read that one tonite…I need to make $$$$$ and get ma own place…move out…live ma own life!!


Stuffed maself with a whole bowlful of fruit. I’m very particular, I hate being interrupted while I eat so I cleaned, deseeded 3 oranges, sliced an apple and tossed in a few strawberries. One word….YUM!


And that was that.....just a fruity-lonely day......in my room....wid Me, Myself and I
