Dust In The Wind...

As the coffin lowers into the grave, the preacher says: "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust..."

Everything has an end. Every song has an ending verse. Every poem has an ending line. Every bag of potato chips has a last chip...(i know this all to well...*sigh) And...every movie has ending credits.

Yes, it's true...we are all going to die! Accept it! We are all going to bite the dust some day. And well...all we can do I guess is....live life to the fullest. Like in Macbeth: "Eat, drink and be merry!"

Last night, I was awake till...hmmm...3am. I was talking to a friend (online not phone) and she was sad coz she was wondering when her..."Knight In Shining Armor" would arrive..and I told her...He will. And after that..I started typing the lyrics to...hmm..."Think Of Me" from "The Phantom Of The Opera". Coz, at the same time, I was listening to the soundtrack and trying to see how much are tickets to that play. Of course, I tried booking tickets at "Her Majesty's Theatre" in London (shempre..the best diba?) and well...explained to her that maybe..some day..when im making money. I'll take my "special someone" to london, see the play or two (Les Miserables pa..) and if...we were together for a long time....then walk across London Bridge, ask her to stop and wait. Get on one knee, as if i were going to tie my shoelaces and bring out a ring and ask her to marry me...(sweet diba? ehehehehe)

Well...ive been thinking about the future a lot lately. Especially after my friend was talking about waiting for her "Knight in Shining Armor".

So..i thought to myself..."when will my knight in shining armor come...whoops...mali...when will my damnsel in distress call for my help?" Will she ever come?

I dunno...but all i know is, all i can do is wait. Wait for the right time and most probably, there will be a girl out there, willing to love someone like me (eck..drama)...haha well there. And i know...that the future will catch up with me...sooner or later. And in the end...there will be an end. An end to my talking like this. An end to my lonliness...an end to my sadness.

Because..in the end, we're all Dust in the Wind.

And..i bet you guys noticed. I've been leaving songs at the end..well...heres one. Dust In The Wind by Kansas:

I close my eyes,
Only for a moment,
and the moment's gone
All my dreams,
Pass before my eyes,
in curiosity

C: Dust in the wind,
all they are is
dust in the wind

Same old song,
Just a drop of water
in an endless sea
All we do,
Crumbles to the ground,
though we refuse to see

C: Dust in the wind,
all they are is
dust in the wind
[2]

Don't hang on,
Nothing last forever
but the earth and sky
It slips away,
And all your money
won't another minute buy

C: Dust in the wind,
all we are is
dust in the wind
Dust in the wind,
everything is dust in the wind
