These few days i've been discussing with my dear RAWK-ON-FOREVA-SISTA about the type of issues that surround our generation these days. i am so glad to find a friend like her who shares so many of my views despite our different backgrounds. *give me a hug!haha*

The one issue we lament over is that of people who don't treat their partners right. And it's very disappointing cuz there is such a lack of commitment and faithfulness in relationships these days. Some people don't draw boundaries and they have already 'cheated' in their hearts. Some outrightly step over the line and they really hurt their girl/boyfriends in the midst; sometimes it's never known by the other party but how can people live a lie with such dark truths in their hearts? Have the hearts of Man become so darkened that they are no longer able to tell wrong from right? These are truly hard times that we live in. Sigh.

As i glossed over the conversation about a particular acquaintance, I was reminded by this song that Miss Lo shared with us in our Sec 2 Lit class...

DESPERADO

The Eagles

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?

You been out ridin' fences for so long now

Oh, you're a hard one

I know that you got your reasons

These things that are pleasin' you

Can hurt you somehow

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy

She'll beat you if she's able

You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things

Have been laid upon your table

But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger

Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin you home

And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin'

Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?

The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine

It's hard to tell the night time from the day

You're losin' all your highs and lows

Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?

Come down from your fences, open the gate

It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you

You better let somebody love you, before it's too late
