Sylvia Plath's - Poppies in October

This is perhaps one of the most beautiful Plath poems I've ever read. You can easily connect to her writing. Oh how I love Sylvia Plath.

Even the sun-clouds this morning cannot manage such skirts.

Nor the woman in the ambulance

Whose red heart blooms through her coat so astoundingly ----A gift, a love gift

Utterly unasked for

By a skyPalely and flamily

Igniting its carbon monoxides, by eyes

Dulled to a halt under bowlers.O my God, what am I

That these late mouths should cry open

In a forest of frost, in a dawn of cornflowers.

Excuse me, Montague.. It's Plath's reign once again.

Past Tense

This is for him (I am referring to the person I was referring to in my first few stories here in my blog).  I don't usually tell all the actual details especially when I'm writing about my own "UNREQUITED LOVE// STAR-CROSSED LOVERS" story but these are so poetic. So, I'd like to share them with you guys...


DISCLAIMER: All the persons I was, am and will be referring to in this blog may or may not exist. It can be a mere figment of my imagination or it can be a real person. Hypothetically speaking, I will never disclose the real name of the persons (if and only if they are indeed real) due to reasons that are too many to think of. 

No matter what you say,

No matter what you do,

No matter what happens,

You're still MINE

and I'm still YOURS...

^^Yup, that was my first text message. It's entertaining, really. You see, it's sort of like a "jinx". No matter what he says, no matter what he does and no matter what happens, he can't change the fact that we belong together... Feeler... Ha ha!! 

I complicate your life. You complicate mine too. So let's complicate life together. It's better to experience all the ups and downs of life with someone rather than being alone. Ahahaha... (Tagalog: Pagpasensiyahan mo na ko) (Translation: Forgive my blurting out) I just love the feeling of being in love with you.You were my best dream. Sadly, I woke up.Can you put me to sleep one more time? So I can continue dreaming of you...

 ^^My favorite!!! 

Yes, I made these quotes myself. As usual, I haven't received any reply. I wasn't expecting any either.
 I enjoy the feeling of constantly getting hurt.. Am I a masochist or something?? Or am I drawn to the wonderful illusion that amidst every rain is a rainbow?? Am I really that stupid?? Or is this what you call UNCONDITIONAL LOVE?

I'm in love with a Montague

Holding back feelings for someone won't make it any better... 

So, obsessing and letting your love suffice is a good option. 

Love, until there's no more left to love...

-Lara Nadezda P. Melencio

I kept thinking about these words while I was in my "Happy Place"... It's the truth, right? I once kept my feelings for someone hoping I can move on but nearly 3 years had passed, and everytime I hear his voice, see his face and kiss his lips, I still get butterflies on my stomach. He is like a drug -- bad for my system but feels so right.. I am now trying with all my might to just admire and love him from afar. I still can't understand why 2 perfect people can never be together. Sucks to be US.. I know, right?? 

I'm in love with a Montague!!

Love, Juliet Capulet

 Don't get me wrong, I love the chase -- but sometimes, I would rather wish it's over rather than running in circles wondering when will one of us will catch the other...


Star-Crossed Lovers like Romeo and Juliet

The Best Bob Marley Quote Ever

“You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She’s not perfect - you aren’t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze and don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she’s not there.”

- Bob Marley -

I have no idea if this quote from Bob Marley is authentic or not. There isn't any confirmation about it in the Internet but whoever made this quote is a genius! 

My Weakness

I'm a sucker for people who love Van Gogh.
Don't you just love people who appreciate art?
Art doesn't need to be beautiful but it certainly needs to have emotions/feelings...

On the left is Vincent Willem van Gogh's painting entitled "Starry Starry Night". It it is the same one that  inspired Don McLean to write a song about this exceptional artist. 


Sure, this painting has lots of colors but can you see the sadness it emanates? This is one of my favorite Van Gogh paintings.

This is entitled "Sunflowers". This is my favorite Van Gogh artwork for it represents reality --- life. Notice the state of the sunflowers? Some of them are fresh, happy-looking and sunny while the others are either about to wither or are already dead.
I don't need to elaborate. You get the point, right?


As the song "Vincent" says, 

Have I told you, Vincent

this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you.

 If you love Van Gogh ----
then ---


ILOVEYOU :)

Poem, Prose or Cinquain?

scenes from the past slowly envelopes the mind

trying to forget what had been instead a contract is bind

all i did was love you... is that a crime?

you said you'll be with me forever but i guess you're out of time

if loving is such a wondrous feeling then why am i in pain?

i bore my sufferings, i choked upon your worthless games

you left me to rot alone in this cruel place

when all i did was to let love prevail...

verbose cinquains run into my tiny brain

feelings of pleasure, delight and pain

random thoughts i wished to relieve

as soon as i would try to believe....

Lara Nadezda Melencio


I made this prose 4 years ago... Just copied it from my old blog site... 

"To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love; but then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer, to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love; to be happy then is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy; therefore to be unhappy one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down."

 Love and Death 

 

Thoughts....

The problem with love is ---

SOMEONE ALWAYS GETS HURT..

Even if the other person doesn't mean to

Even if the persons involved strive not to do it

Even if they are in love

LOVE is overrated

LOVE does not conquer all

Who gets to choose who deserves to be loved?

Who gets to choose who deserves to be left alone?

Who would ever want to be hurt?

Who ends up bleeding?

Quotes to Ponder On

They're not really quotes so bear with me... :)

Actually, they're like cheesy one-liners..



If nothing lasts forever, will you be my nothing?


If he really wants me in his life, he'll do everything to put me there.


There is no remedy for love other than to love more.



Oh I love the irony... Really!



Do you have any ideas? Feel free contact me... Since I'm new here I still don't know how to put the comments sections (if there is any). Please, help! :)
