I've been expressed sometimes as someone deep; someone too deep that thinks too much. There are times when people express me as someone emotional' someone to emotional. I reckon that maybe half of you are right. Because most of these impressions are based on the writings i have here when in fact i realize i have not written with enough thought at all. Some people call me Joe, some people call me Ryan though sometimes i dont even know which one i prefer. Maybe its Bash i like. Yeah it is. Im a media student with aspirations to be a writer yet i have written nothing to suggest such prowess or interest. I never thought to be one that is mushy. I still dont. Im a romantic and i say carpe diem. Even if i sound stupid to all of you nice ladies and gentlemen, at least i say whats in my heart. We all yearn a certain acceptance but that does not need conformity.

Robert Frost said, "Two roads diverged in the wood and I, I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference."

Most men lead lives of quiet desperation. I have spent my days since my return helping the needy children at youth risk outfits. I have ironically become something i once thought was excrement. Im a social worker now; a voluntary worker that helps people that need help. But this is no action to impress because i can assure you that the man i was would have done this to impress. The man i am feels carpe diem.

Im not a very smart man. But i do know what love is. As an officially self declared romantic, i say its never been more clear to me. Our lives are a play and it is till now that this powerful play is ongoing and all it asks, is for us to contribute a verse; a verse to form a stanza. A stanza to form a poetry for there is a poet in all of us. There is rhythm in all of us. We aspire to the vaious walks of life as doctors, policeman biotechinicans or even cleaners. These are wants and necessities. But the essence of love and family, prose and poetry, this is what we live for. We dont read or write em because it is cute as John Keating quotes.

I have come to realize that there are men that have spent their lives deep in thought, but none in expression. Let us not be men in quiet desperation. Say what you feel and practise what you preach and live life for its every moment because it will not pass us by again. I wish not to come to die and realized i had never lived. Carpe Diem.

It is here that i return to you the gift of love. Our story shares no similarity with the common tales. My love extends beyond the laws of science or the rules of life for it is without logic. It cannot be defied nor challenged. It is not with mind, for thy love for you is all nothing but heart. Worry not that you cannot express for it is me that wishes to express. Worry not of how you feel for me for i feel for you.



I have neither the riches of cars nor the gifts of lavish
I have no past and the past has no me
I have not money, i have not fame.
I promise you, nothing near a guaranteed life of such

But i promise you me, for now and tomorrow till the end of days.
Words are your diamonds, i am your wedding.
For you i can.
For you i will.

I could love you forever
I could kiss you forever
Your touch and smile,
My love,
I would hold you forever.
